Really creeps up on you doesn't it, if we don't get Miller within the next week or so Hodgson should be pencilled in for round 1.
We effectively have 3 new spine members with KP moving to 6, attempting to shoehorn Miller into that mix so late is a recipe for disaster for both Hastings and Ponga.
The Hastings/Ponga combination is more important to future success than this years fullback, provided Bailey does at least a serviceable job in the trial we should let the halves run into their first season with the spine they have trained in over the entire offseason.
It's turning into Brookes all over again, you'd think they'd have learned

Unfortunately that is what can happen when you target players who are under contract, you are basically at the mercy of other clubs.It's turning into Brookes all over again, you'd think they'd have learned

According the Phil Rothfield it’s happening. Peter Parr, said, he knew nothing of Millers release request about a week ago.

I'm sure they've got a contingency plan. Given that we're pushing hard for Lachie Miller, of all people as Plan A, I'm certain the contingency plan isn't good. But we'll at least have a plan!It's turning into Brookes all over again, you'd think they'd have learned

I think the plan is a kid who's played about 10 games of reserve grade

Yeah, or Gagai at FB and Best/Maps/Young as centres. Not ideal.

Better then gags at centre. If we have him at 1 it's a much better prospect. Best,maps, Lucas sure are younger fellas but you only learn by being there. Don't stress too much, you'll get a hernia.

Already got one haha. Well, a partial one anyway from years back. Not sure how it happened, but if I eat too much these days it can be excruciating.

Apparently Sharks have agreed already regardless of a player swap they are just in discussions to see if they can find one.
He will be here, and the fact he wasn't at the members day is more evidence.
Need to sort Young, if we lose him and Lee back to back just wow

If we have fullback sorted, maybe we can talk about hooker.
As far as I can see we have Brailey, a bunch of utilities, and some Flegg aged guys like Riley Jones, Kobe Rugless and Noah Naigolivia.
One injury to Brailey, and Kurt Mann seems our best option, just ahead of Crossland and Gamble.
