I don’t think we need 2 more props, one more yes. I doubt very much RCG or NAS will be that prop as well but never know. If Bateman doesn’t return might need an edge. So an edge & prop would be the most likely additions imo. Madge has mentioned Hetherington staying at Broncs but I don’t think Madge has had a good look at their cap because something has to give and unless he’s resigned to losing one of the centres which is likely then they’ll have to look elsewhere to free up space. 

I agree. If a quality prop at the right price came up now we have to grab them. I don’t think we need two, nor do I think we have a genuine chance of finding the roster spot.

It would be nice if someone like Sullivan did a Fulton and took a one year deal in the UK.

 

Just having a quick look at what is available right now and from Nov 1st, not a great deal to be honest. Not a helluva lot in edge backrowers either. And what makes it more difficult is a few clubs will be in the market for them hence RCG commanding a bit of interest from several clubs. A couple of the Storm middles can talk to other clubs from Nov 1st, maybe have a crack there for 2026. Only other one that I'd be very interested in right now is Kaufusi at the Sharks but they've lost 2 now so doubt he'll make a move but never know.

 

I'd be shaking the Bronco's tree, there are some good young middles up there that might have pathways blocked and renewed cap pressure (does that happen in Brisbane?).

I'm genuinely hoping the reason RCG hasn't been announced anywhere is because we have him and need to move someone on to fit him in.

That would be good if true. 

 

I find it odd that he hasn't been announced by anyone yet.

 

There’s some speculation online that he’s going back to Penrith.

 

Why wouldn't they have announced it?

 

Waiting until after the Grand Final apparently.

Don't see why that would be a consideration.

Just on Hetherington - I'm sure Madge will want to take a look, but surely there's not much change from the player's perspective. He's not going to get much playing time with Carrigan there. Any move there was always going to be player driven rather than the other way around.

You only have to follow the Wests Magpies social media to see why we are never going to have a Wests Tigers reserve grade team. The magpies worship playing infront of 100 people at Lidolm rather than as a curtain raiser for the first grade team

Yep, and thus the division (perceived or reality) will continue.

He just gets cranky sometimes lol.

Steve and I are good, neither of us have an issue with not agreeing.

Yeah the third year is a risk but Titans will have a prop rotation of Tino, Mo & RCG. Our prop "leader" is 22yo Fonua Pole. Unless Richo pulls a massive magic trick over the preseason, we are in serious trouble up front.
