Recruitment & Retention 2027

[Dragons2k10]

i honestly think Holmes will have a big year better players around him now he will obviously work well with Drinkwater and i think Nikorima will create a lot of opportunities for him in attack.

Last year it felt the only player that unlocked Val in attack and gave him good ball into space was Leilua they linked well together even in 2025.

I hope Holmes has one more season left in him. He was so bad last season, it must have been the backs around him. I can't imagine he'd fall that far that fast.

He played like a tourist this season

Very much like the many players who joined the Titans over the years.

2027 is a contract year for Holmes. I expect him to go all out to earn a new deal.

there will be no money for him with us in 2028 .. if he wants a new deal it will have to be with another club and that will mean he does have to work for it.

Val might be ok with a 300-400k type winger deal in 2028 (versus a 9-5 job outside footy).. but I don't think hes mentally there yet.. reckon he would be wanting to back himself to play well early season and prove he's worth more.. thats a good outcome for us...

i.e. if he went out and signed a new 2028 deal tomorrow.. it leaves no incentive for him to train/work hard.. but I don't think it'll happen.

I can’t believe how many people actually want JAC
