    I'd back this. A talent. Sad we let him go.

      I'm a little worried about all our little blokes too.

        Would be a really good piece of business.

        Provides cover in the halves, dummy half and outside backs and would work great in a rotation with Radley. Having him on the bench would allow us to potentially rotate our 2nd rowers which seems to be a growing trend that's having reasonable levels of success in VlandysBall.

        The area weakest in from a depth perspective is that 13 role, when Radley isn't there we struggle to find an adequate replacement.

          Offers a lot more to the forwards and backs than Lam and roughly the same to the medical and rehab team.
          ...

            Agreed mate.

              Would be a good pickup at the right price.

              Plus I think he would thrive being back with us.

              He is suited to VLandys ball....

                I'm glad that's the former Rooster who plays for Newcastle that they want to bring back.

                  Weakness is depth in the outside backs I would say pending the development of a number of youngsters who are not getting enough footy in the past 2 season to be development to NRL standard

                  Not expecting J Morris to go around again in 2022 - Leaving the Chooks with Toops/Suaalii/Manu/Smith/Ikuvalu /Keighran - not sure of the contract status of Vuate Karawalevu but he will need development as well.

                  Nat and Egan Butcher can play lock for instance

                    Plenty of players can play lock but there's no players capable of playing the role Radley plays. Our depth is literally 0 in terms of the ball playing lock role.

                    I think we are probably short 2 in the outside backs, a starting right winger and another depth player who may be Graham-Taufa if he gets promoted at end of season but I think Ikuvalu and Suaali offer decent depth at the moment.

                      If I could bring a player back to the Roosters it would be Paul Momirovski.

                        Can’t find a home. Tigers, Melbourne, Penrith.

                        I miss Latrell more.

                          Telegraph reporting the Watson has missed his final contact offer deadline. Were we the only ones in the race?
