I love Reynolds, hungry angry and never say die attitude = winner!
Him and graham is a great win for us if the cards fall in our favor.

Im 95% on us getting Graham now and if that happens i think we could def get josh then as well.

I like Reynolds but he needs an organiser next to him and I think that is Lambs greatest strength rather than his running game. As far as forwards go we need big bodies and a hard edged front rower to add some steel to our pack for mine a big body like Kasiano on the bench and graham starting would make a big difference to our side because right now every week we fight hard but in th no get bullied out of games.
 
A change of scenery could get SKD back to his best, which is very good. He's not one of the 3 marque players Brown will get. He'd add a lot of experience to the squad. So why not!
 
Cant you see why he has a crush on him?

We really need to take the positives out of these big money deals. Between just the dogs and chooks i can see the following becoming available :
Tolman
Kasiano
Lichaa
Guerra
Graham
Ferguson
Skd
Tupou
From that we need to find 2 or 3 quality players that we can add to our squad.
Then there will be the likes of hoffman, lewis that would be two ideal vets we could look at both and potentially sign 1.
Then there will 100% be more quality opportunities to sign players for the betterment of our club. Ive said from the start of this whole thing that brown has gone about recruitment the wrong way around. We need to build with these role player type guys and get some wins on the board. Then the big fish will start to see the opportunity to jump on board and finish our side off.
 
But the worst thing we can do now is pay silly overs for players that wont take us over that hump.

Just because we've got a shipload of cash doesnt mean we need to chase blokes for the sake of it.

Guys like widdop and dugan are not what the club needs and hopefully browny realizes thatA

His a better prop then every one we have in our roster atm Dan Saifiti included.

Dan should come along but i said many times last yr we mite burn him out and lose any chance of him becoming a gun player.

He's on $450k a year at the Sharks. You don't think if we offered him $700 a year for 3 years he'd find an out in his contract?

When's the last time a contender let one of their most important players just up and leave for more money somewhere else?

The dogs attack has been a steaming pile of week old garbage, until some nobody called frawley came in and rescued them. If he didn't come off the bench against us we would have beat the dogs.

Hes young also mate, we need veteran leaders. I wouldnt say no if we could get the kid here but i think if he was an option brown would of looked into it when he let the pussy gerringong Queenslander go to the bronx

Don't know how you think Widdop isn't what we need. He is exactly what we need along with some hard nosed props

Because he's a quality playmaker? Why sign him when we can sign a slow plodder who's incapable of bending the line Tolman, a sub NRL standard backrower like Guerra or someone with hands for feet like SKD? We've already got plenty of **** players why not shore up all the **** players the NRL has to offer?

Also im not as high as everyone else seems to be on the saifiti boys. They seem to fall into tackles and have absolutely no leg drive. They've taken a step backwards this year
 
Widdop is absolute quality. I'm ignoring his form last year as the side was very poorly coached that year. The way he's controlling the Dragons this year, on both sides of the field showcases what a talent he really is. It's like McCrone isn't even there.

I actually think he's a better value buy than Foran and without the baggage.

Lol rito mate having a shot at me for having an opinion, quality stuff champion.
Everyone must have very short memories as youre all basing your judgment of widdop on his past 7 games this season...
Last year he was absolutely pathetic, every time he got the ball in the attacking zone he kicked it. Of course when its a contract year he steps it up and plays out of his skin.
I also mentioned blokes like Tolman and guerra as i think they are realistic chances of coming here and forwards are priority number 1. We sign widdop and get a few average forwards and you'll be the bloke on here in a years time saying how useless widdop is. Not realising you need quality forwards to make your halves look half decent.
Dunno how you think guerra is sub nrl standard considering he has played for his country and state.... and if you reread my post regarding tolman i said he was part of what our pack needed. I also said we need an impact prop to come on and bend the line.

But rito bud be a smartarse and twist my words to act like you know what you're on about
