@enumerator Leo Thompson is managed by Wasserman, the same outfit who manages Stefano. They’ve moved all their WT players to other clubs this year. Isaiah, Stefano and Kepaoa.
Richo seems to have good relationships with Crown & Ultra.

KPP manager is Ayoub. We might be in with a shout there.
Taking into consideration the players able to talk to clubs come Nov 1st this is a team I think could certainly play finals:
Bula
Skelton
Olam
Makasini
Turuva
Galvin
Luai
Si Fainu
B. Nikora
Seyfarth
King/Thompson
Koroisau
Sam Fainu
Bench: Pole, Hunt, Johannsen, Latu/TDS
What team would you like to see given the talent available Nov 1st and who we might be able to attract to the club? You can only add 2 players.

I hate him, but I also think he is one of the most footy smart, motivated and passionate players in the NRL, something we sorely lack....I'm torn about what to think if this rumor is true.
@lorenzo This is the type of player that is required at the club right now..Like him or not Gutho is a competitor you only have to watch him play on a two year contract the competitive spirit and experience would be invaluable , the team at present has no drive Gutho would give that coupled with Laui !
I’m have an open mind on gutho. He’s presumably not going to be on a lot after parra chip in a chunk. We lack centres and he is a high effort player. I like the idea of overwhelming our losing culture with high effort winning types (api, luai, gutho maybe bird) to complement our young natural talents. A bit worried on his injuries but maybe worth a risk. Wouldn’t block makasini for long
What about Eisenhuth for lock? He’s played as a Yeo backup the last few years, won premierships, played with Benji and Luai. Has seen a winning culture. Would be cheapish and be able to play regular first grade with us. Doesn’t look like he has a contract for 2025
I'd take Gutho as a centre for 2 years for sure. Would help develop Bula as well.
!00%, great footy IQ. What he might lack in speed as he gets older, although never a real speedster anyway, he makes up for with his positional play and game management abilities.I hate him, but I also think he is one of the most footy smart, motivated and passionate players in the NRL, something we sorely lack....I'm torn about what to think if this rumor is true.
He's a very smart player so could do ok in the centres, certainly a very experienced player and a great communicator so would be probably help defensively which is important for us. Very fit, would be a great trainer so would be another to help set standards. Would also give younger players confidence knowing he's there. I could see it helping if only 2 years.I'd take Gutho as a centre for 2 years for sure. Would help develop Bula as well.
I just saw the original source of this info. Might be a stretch I think
I think he was seeking Justin Olam's knee surgeon's business cardFacebook rumour alert 🚨

Eisenhuth looks ok because he's surrounded by champions. He's a bit of a plodder, and we have enough of those.What about Eisenhuth for lock?
