Yeah, great news. Don't be surprised if we don't offer Ben Ross a bargain basement 1 year deal also.
Ross would be the perfect signing for us if he can manage to stay injury free.

We should get rid of Sims who is on way too much money, his younger brother is going to be way better then Ashton in a couple of years time.

I've seen a ****load of Corbin because my brother played in his age group since u-7's. He is seriously overrated, his raps all come from being related to Ashton and being bigger than everyone as opposed to being legitimately good at the game.

Hopefully Henjak gets to put his own stamp on the team if we can get rid of Sims, Clinton, Setu and Te'o. With Hunt going as well there should be some money to pick up a decent player or two. Also i think Alex Glenn should be a starting second rower next year.

Theres still a number of good players on the market I think we should look at, even someone like Nigel Plum who cant get a contract anywhere, was voted the hardest hitter in the RLW Players poll, sure he isnt flashy but he stings in defence and gets through a lot of work. May not have the potential to be a future rep player like we were hoping with Setu, Te'o and Sims but hes solid and wont let you down. A shame really he's not the sort of player we normally go after, but I think he's the type of player we need.

How's Gareth Ellis gone for Wests this season anyway? Hasn't hit too many headlines, but seems to be a regular.
He's done a great job of protecting the worst front-line defender in the NRL; he's basically been Marshall's answer to Lockyer's Tonie Carroll. His attacking game's been wasted a bit by having to play in tight a lot of the time as the Tigers have no real genuine metre-eaters but he's been going okay in that role anyway.

Looks a class act without really standing out, if that's possible.

Fair play. Cheers for that. Poms making a go of it in the NRL are rare as hen's teeth, so it'd be nice to have another one after Morley.

Probably shouldn't count Carney, what with him being a Mick and only managing the one season before he "retired".

Have been impressed with Ellis tbh, I thought he'd fail but he's been the Tigers best player imo. He doesnt do a lot in attack as he seems to get cut out almost every time when they are on the line but he does hit it up well coming out of trouble.
