    Default If you can sign one player

    Has to be a rl player that is currently still playing. Who would it be, obviously to compliment what we have.

    Fantastic player. Sorry to be pedantic he plays at 13 though. Not played anywhere bar there for about 5 years now.

    He would be up there for me definitely along with the likes of Latrell Mitchell too, but I’d go for Damian Cook to take over from Roby at 9.

    Payne Haas for me, no pack in super league would come near us with a front row of Haas, Thompson, Walmsley and Lees. Only 19 too.

    Taumalolo would make our pack unbeatable I reckon.

    I was thinking Bateman too.
    Work rate like James Graham used to have.

    So Bateman for me too

    He'd be my pick too. He's been the best hooker in the sport for the past few years for mine. I think he's been key in the resurgence of NSW- he's so explosive out of dummy half, just like Roby at his best. If you give him an inch...

    If Shaun Johnson was at his 2014 level, I would've gone for him. Brilliant half that could do everything. Sadly, seems the broken ankle a few years ago has took a little away from his game. Let's hope he get's back to his best.

    Lot's of other great players mentioned in this thread and also great to read today that Valentine Homes has returned to the sport with NQL. There's a rumour going around that Semi Radradra may be on his way back as well, so more good news with SBW returning in the past couple weeks.

    Lot's of movement within SL of late and summarized here- https://www.skysports.com/rugby-leag...he-2020-season
    Interesting seeing a lot more players moving within SL, like we see in the NRL.

    Regards,

    STEVO

    I'd agree. We'd all like to see the likes of a Tedesco, Taumalolo, Mitchell in the RedVee but, if you consider the balance of our squad and the players we have, it's hooker where we look to be most vulnerable with Roby coming to the end of his career. I'm not sure how Cam Smith got Dally M hooker of the year because Damien Cook has been head and shoulders above all other NRL hookers for the last couple of seasons.
    Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.

    Agree with Damian Cook as probably in the most needed to cover position. As an outsider though, Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad. Only 24 and can play winger, centre or fullback.
    Loyal and true, not a glory hunter.

    He’s quite something. Reminds me of Offiah.

    Just watched some videos, he's quick. Who would he replace? Tommy or Regan, or would this just be one to make their positions not guaranteed ?

    Sadly, I think SL won't stand a chance of signing him at this time. Wests now want him as their deal to sign Lattrell Mitchell has stalled.

    I'd go off tangent here and sign any cheating playacting clown from football and show them what a tackle is really like.
    On the Back foot looking for the front one.
