    Blake Austin is a rumored target

    Gold Coast Titans have emerged as a potential new home for Warrington’s Blake Austin next year.
    The halfback is a free agent at the end of this season and is set to depart the Wolves. League Express understands the stand-off is one of a number of players Gold Coast are interested in signing.
    The Titans are keen to strengthen their playmaking options. Currently the Queensland club have Ash Taylor, Tanah Boyd, Jamal Fogarty and Toby Sexton.
    Taylor is off-contract at the end of this season and currently unsigned for next year.
As Boyd and Sexton are both only 20, and Sexton has yet to make his NRL debut, Austin would offer much-needed experience to their spine.
    He made more than 100 appearances in the NRL for Penrith, Wests and Canberra between 2011 and 2018 before joining Warrington.
    He signed a three-year deal with the Wolves at the start of 2019.
The 30-year-old has played more than 50 times since then, and has also represented Great Britain, and England at the 2019 Nines World Cup. This season Austin has fallen out of favour and only played three of the club’s five Super League matches.

    his season Austin has fallen out of favour and only played three of the club’s five Super League matches.
    That sounds pretty severe. I haven't watched him much in Super League. But I liked his most recent years in the NRL.

    Certainly would be an improvement on what we've got but surely wouldn't pay anything except bargain price for him .. I'm sort of hoping that Sexton and/or Campbell get a bench position and blooded this season in prep for next year. I'd really like to make a secret but serious play for Hodgson while clearing some more deadwood.

    Hodgson loves to overplay his hand at hooker instead of just giving early ball to the halves, and the Raiders arguably play better without him at 9 hence him coming off the bench last week. I don't think he is what we need

    Not poking you on that and nor am I fan of the Raiders nor Hodgson but that was not his go until Ennis got inside his head ... an organiser who regardless of the media's criticism (Ennis leading the charge) is a class way way way above what we have.

    And I'd bet my left nut that the "leak" between NRL360 and Sticky that annoyed Hodgson so much was via slick Mick through Kent too ... just saying. There are so many agendas in that opinionated old boys club e.g Wighton is nothing but a manufactured 5/8 imho and his backline is suffering for it, none more than Croker on that edge.

    Personally I'd love to have Sezer back to bring Sexton and company on.

    Agree on this one. Sezer would bring experience to the role. Is he available? I seem to recall he didn't leave us under good circumstances?

    he's getting better and better
    Classy attack but the defensive efforts are a bother. Should fit right in.
    Seriously though, let's hope he pans out to be a 'goodun'.

    Pretty sure he was a casualty of the DCE signing. Decided to move to Canberra on the back of that, only for DCE to backflip.

    I'd sign Nicho Hynes purely off of how hot he is

    He also apparently came out today saying make me an offer. Or so the head line was prompting, didn't click it

    I defiantly think MILF is worth a calculated risk as his current status in the game is directly linked to the disaster that as surrounded him.
    In the right environment he will shine again and hopefully at the Titans his extraordinary abilities are rediscovered.

    I'm not so sure, we are not the Melbourne Storm where we can bring in journeymen or players down on confidence and they go into a system which let's them thrive again. Let's face that Milford is as much damaged goods as Ash Taylor, I don't think we are the right club to get the best out of either of them.

    My opinion is we need to bring in someone who is hungry and is more likely to inspire the team, someone who isn't gun shy and will take some risks. I can't see a dropped bottom lip again when the going gets hard, I want someone with attributes like James Maloney (or even Mitch Moses) who will keep taking shots for a try even if some of the attempts failed....not someone who will withdraw into their shell when we are losing or they make an error.
