Recruitment And Retention Discussion

Guess we’re in wait-and-see mode. Probably we hear nothing about Elliott & KPP until we see where things are at with Tyrone (ie how much cap space there will be left once he does or doesn’t take up whatever offer we make).
 
Remember when the Knights gave Toni Tupouniua a top 30 contract based on a couple of months of preseason, and then he proceeded to look out of his depth in NSW Cup all season so he had to be bought out? Should we maybe wait until Tyrone at least plays well in reserve grade before stressing over his next deal?
 
I think it might be one of those situations where he is announced as signing for a couple of years, then he is named in first grade.
 
Since we are losing both Pryce and Hastings I’d honestly consider looking at Mikey Lewis can play 6,7,1 great footwork could step around a tidal wave, and he looks like a direct upgrade over Pryce. I think he would make a mean back up
 
Fletcher Hunt plays 5/8 as much as he plays fullback.
He played SG Ball last year, but, from the trials and his first 2 games of seniors in reserve grade, I think he needs a development deal right now.
 
Will have Cogger, Gamblor and Linnane all as backups, don't think another half will be part of the plan.
Yeah AOB was saying in his press conference this week what great halves back-up we have in 2026 with Cogger and Gamble, so I think they're pretty happy with that.
