4 hookers signed for 2023.

One would think Liddle or Simpkin or both will be gone next year.

I think Api with 2 young guys is perfect. 

I agree Garry. Shame about Liddle though.

You don't think he will get a run the backend of this year?

Club must have read this thread. Rua added to top 30 for 23 and 24.

Does that include 22 (Does he have to wait until round 10 this year)?

50 + games in and I have not seen Liddle progress to the next level

I'm not knocking Liddle ...but when you see he was rated a better hooker than Brandon Smith in NYC ...and where they are both at now

So he is miles away from being ready to play NRL and pump out enough QUALITY minutes ....

Fantastic forward thinking by the club this kid is our future hooker.

I think his game is more suited to our system not Simpkin’s who tends to be a bit 1 dimensional or Liddle who just hasn’t been able to find that form he had back 3 yrs ago before all his injuries.

If we want to be a development club

These are the type of signings we need to start making. 

Now the work is for the coaching staff to teach and prepare Rua to take his opportunity when it comes up
