@helmesy its very hard to tell mate for a few reasons
Isaac's company Cove agency haven't updated their website in about 2 years. It says 'coming soon.' They do have an instagram and when one of their stable signs a contract or plays a milestone match then there'll be a post about it on instagram. As it stands, I only know of these guys
Brooks
Talau
Joffa (recently departed to Eels)
Klemmer (rumoured that we brought him to the club on Isaac's request in order to get Mitch Moses)
Bateman (same as Klemmer)
Tumeth (re-signed with WT last November)
I almost think it's worth updating the Top 30 contract spreadsheet to include the player's manager. This has a huge bearing on who stays and goes.
@loganr21 the games that Blore played during Covid either side of injury were all super impressive. To let him go would be criminal. The guy can play.
The Blore stuff is strange - certainly a lot of noise around him being shopped which makes me think there are some legs to it.
He's also been held back in reserves a fair bit this year.
I don't really buy the attitude thing given that all we heard about him for years was the exact opposite. Perhaps his contract is just too big for a guy of his stature? Still, I would be looking to let him prove his worth rather than just jettisoning him early in the piece. Especially when we have Seyfarth in our weekly 17 now it seems.
No surprise with Simpkin. I think there's a player there, but he needs to be playing regular football and he's not going to get that here for the foreseeable future.

Pushing the likes of Joffa and Blore out the door are bold moves and will need to be backed up by success or it will be the end of this regime.

Yep this is my take on it too. If it's just to save some cap space in case a signing opportunity pops up next year it's a big L.

Good idea
In memory of Geoff Chisholm (1965-2022)
looks like Da Silva will be unleashed on the bench against Titans, if you are old enough you are good enough. Go for it Sheens
think hunt will end up at the Roosters so presume they will look at releasing walker. Not a particular walker fan however him and Brooks might work ok together under Sheens

I think it would be Sam Walker to Manly freeing up Fainu to come our way.

I would call their bluff, Brooks hasn't lead us to the semis in 10 years, while I don't mind him staying for less, I am more than happy to move on from the Brooks circus next yearwell right where Issac Moses wants this....
Leeds set to offer Brooks a deal
Potentially Canberra in the mix
plus
does he stay on at the Tigers ?....
What a shock, right when we're negotiating with Brooks comes a Super League club supposedly desperate for his signature and willing to pay the big bucks - you couldn't write this script.
He's been available to sign since last November....crickets for months, now a miracle!

every half has rejected us, they will get brooks for a reasonable deal.
You can't run with fainu and wakeham.
With Brooks it will cone down to some cash this is typical Moses negotiating, Brooks and fainu would work ok too
Still confident Koula is a big target from fulton
Speculating hear with no evidence to back this up at all but perhaps talau deal has fallen through and Manly are wanting naden ? Maybe it becomes naden and blore for Koula and Fainu ?

I admire your optimism jedi but cant put these dots together.
Telegraph reporting Brooks has been offered, by Wests Tigers, a 500K-600K (per year) 2 year deal.
