Well I recall Bronson Xerri has been mentioned on here. We can forget him for about 4 years. Positive drug test.
Bateman would do me. We have been after mongrel since Birdy left.

That telling stat means absolutely nothing, really. They won more games when one of their best players played. Surprise.
He's a great player. Absolutely. I just don't believe we have the team at the moment or next year to get the best out of him, that's all. My opinion.
Agree re Fifita.
Yeah fair point, mate. And that could absolutely be the case. Looking at the off-contract players and what is required to get a team to play consistent, cohesive football, I think we're more than a few off-season signings away.
I don't even think we have the foundation in place to know what kind of team we are yet, and what kind of football we want to play. We're trialling new halves this weekend and our best fullback is going to miss half the year. We don't know who our best hooker is. Until these fundamentals are clearer, I don't think we can be certain in knowing what kind of team we should be building and what kind of marquee signings are going to bring the most value.
Only thing I would HOPE they are sure of is the players we DON'T need here after their contracts are up.
Xerri is a star but a performance-enhanced falling star ... pity.
Article today saying that Mal is sounding out Bateman as an Arrow replacement. 800k is the asking price. Assuming he is our 13 for the foreseeable future - do we think he is worth it? I’m not convinced he’s an 800k player as per my previous essay but am interested to see what we all think.
I agree with HS not worth that much for me
Can we just go after Fifita please and do it properly.
Then go about getting all the Keebra and PBC stars around him.
I see the article HS refers to in it doesn’t refer to us as “The Titans” but as “The Woeful Titans”.
