    Next season, Manu is on $800k, Suaalii $750k, Toops $400k, Young $400k, Billy Smith $120k a year.

    So from a economic point of view Billy Smith should play Reggies whilst waiting for an opportunity and Young should play left centre.
    From a positional point of view Billy Smith should play left centre, Young right wing with Suaalii on $750k a year should play Reggies. I can see toys flying out of the pram if Suaalii plays Reggies.

      We need to piss off Swarlee. We need to re-sign Allan at what would surely be a minimum wage. We have Paugo, that English winger and Toia as back up. Young’s bro can’t crack English first grade so I wouldn’t expect him to be in the mix.

        At the end of the day which ever 2 out of Suaalii, Toups & Young are fit & playing the best will get the wing positions & Manu & Smith will be the centres.

            I'd say if toops is fit to play, regardless of form will be there.

            Last year and all that. That leaves Suaalii and Young fighting over the right flank.

            Like they'll be literally fighting. Someone should promote it for pay per view.

              Toia ain’t no body’s back up, how dare you.

                  Toups is a legend and we all love what he brings - however injuries are becoming quiet frequent for him. He will be lucky to play 15 games next year because of strains and injury imo. We need the depth cover:

                      Dom Young isn't coming to play reserves.

                      1. Tedesco
                      2. Tupou
                      3. Suaalii
                      4. Manu
                      5. Young

                      Is what they'll likely go with, you just know Robbo is going to try Suaalii at centre again.

                        The best solution to the problem would be Suaalii moving across to RU next season even if means footing part of the bill.

                          Toops may play every second game next year?

                          We may have a rotation policy in the backs to keep them fresh for the end of year finals?

                            Pay part of Suaalii’s wages & let him play another code, how dumb would that be. I’m glad you have nothing to do with our retention
                            We need 10 players to fill 5 positions it’s called depth.

                              I like him back on the wing but at 700k Suualii should be going early like others have said. I think you will find this will happen

                                If he wants to leave early then we don’t have to pay him anything but what Bates was saying is we let him go to play another code & we pay part of his wage. Like I said how dumb would it be to do that.
