Be POS - Hayne

[Johnny Tobin]

SBW would already be factored in to our 2017 cap.

But Hayne wouldn't be.

I think that if he gives up on NFL he will be a Rooster.

But where does the $1m plus come from? We would have to offload a couple of our top players at least.

I would go for Pearce and Guerra.

You?

I wouldn't sign SBW in the first place, if he wants a coaching job post playing career fine, but his best playing days are behind him.

I don't disagree.

But we don't make the call.

Anyway, who would you ditch for Hayne?

SKD and Moa

SKD and Moa

Fair call.

But I doubt that would be enough. Have to throw another one in.

Would it be similar to SBW in 2013? Now we don't know how his contract worked, but I assume his salary was topped off with a lot of TPAs. Could something be done like that with Hayne?

In regards to the question, I'd let all of Aubo, Moa and Liu walk away at the end of the season if it meant purchasing Hayne, and perhaps attempting to release someone like Toups.

I know Aubo is great but we have plenty of depth in the backs with Manu, Elliot and Latrell; Nikorima can cover hooker and our backrow depth would be boosted with SBW, along with Leululai and Papalli coming through

Toops, moa, guerra.

RTS, Maloney and Jennings if I were POS :P

Edit: Oh the question was who else besides them? Cornish/Nikorima, Slime Ankle, Frei, Henderson, Leuluai... guess they are all just depth players though?

Who would replace Pearce the seasoned campaigner?

What's the point in having Hayne and SBW if your halves are rookies?

I'd go Moa, SKD and then Guerra if need be.

Couldn't sell the core of my team for an outsider. I would be devastated to see aubusson in anything but rwb.

I reckon.
Hard to understand why any Rooster fan would consider off loading him.

Nikorima and Hastings would do the job..
Horrie Jnr is a veteran between the ears.
Finch was experienced and we all saw how that ended..

.

Even after 200 first grade games, he still doesn't seem to provide the influence you'd expect from a seasoned campaigner.
I don't think having rookie halves is a bad thing if they're good enough.

Nikorima and Hastings in the halves would be ok with me if you have Hayne out the back.

in the paper today it said that getting rid of Jennings would allow us to extend Cordner, Aubbo and Hastings.
