I think Ravalawa (or another winger) needs to go to fit JAC.. too many other spots we need to fill first (even if we could afford him).

Chammas and Weidler have said on their Journo podcast Ravalawa is happy to sit in reserve grade and see out his contract unfortunately.

JAC management looking for 2 years 500k per year deal. Don’t think he’ll get that anywhere.
Priority should be Terrell May, can’t win games with bad middle forwards and he’s the best Available.

Everyone is off JAC? Seems to me, Finau on one wing and who on the other? CT? He goes ok but good teams don't have wingers the size of props and about as far as a lot of props.
Maybe a choice between Finau and CT if Sloan is on one wing?

I dont think anyone is guaranteed a wing spot currently, if Sloan is good enough maybe he gets one.

Rumour that JAC was at camp yesterday, but again someone has to leave to make room (the last 3 spots are a lock for other positions), and the dollars would have to have come right down.

Kyle is cheap, a good trainer and does what hes told.. hes very useful to us..
He'd better be! Those are good qualities but there comes a time when that doesn't make up for lack or ability.

Anyway, he won't be going anywhere next year and dad Flanno will give him every opportunity and then some more opportunities so I hope he kills it. There won't be any excuses about Hunt demanding the ball do much.

Would love JAC for 2 years. Gutho should've only gotten 2 years as well. Or a club option for the third. Which might be the case.

watching a video, I think he would start as a winger.. his acceleration isnt great, but his topspeed is up more than enough.. very good at palming blokes in the face and staying balanced.

Have watched a fair bit of him, really good in 1 on 1 scenarios has a very solid don't argue fend on him and a really good step, big strong and fast player. Perhaps more importantly to Flanno his defensive efforts are top notch, always chasing and has made some really impressive cross field try saving chase downs on the line.

Will obviously be an adjustment period To NRL but if it's him over addo I'm more then happy with that. Would be cheaper as well and possibly means another player in the background moving on. Plenty of outside backs competing for first grade now.

‘I want to win’: Determined Gutherson ready for next chapter​



Very impressed with Gutho, chalk and cheese between him and our last captain....
Yea he's a class act through and through, very positive influence which we desperately needed.

Really starting to get excited about our new look team
Get our hands on a decent halfback and we are off and running. For the first time in a long time. Since the incident with JDB. But need a couple of blokes to show their promise in first grade. Couchmans, LKT, Sione Finau. I hope Egan as well. Just not sure where he fits in. Maybe a bit later in the year, LPT, Latu and Stewart.

I like it.. I thought 1 or 2 yrs max for the Couchies.. if this is a break out year, their next few contracts will be much bigger.. but they cant really be asking for big dollars until they are giving frank, jack and hame a run for their money...
