Not Mamo please, he’s a liability. I don’t rate Shaul and he would be out of our price range anyway. Escare would definitely be worth a punt. I’d rather we spent our money on a replacement for Brown (assuming he retires) than splashing the cash on a fullback.
From the current squad we have Sarge, Chamberlain, Sio, Tui and the young lad in the reserves who have/can all play fullback. For various reasons I’d favour Sarge or Chamberlain but both are off contract. Chamberlain needs to prove his fitness and we’d have to change our tactics for Sarge though.

Is Sarge off contract ?
Escare is a tremendous player but may be trouble

The signing announcement only mentioned this season and according to the only full off contract list I can find on Zero Tackle he is off contract. It might be wrong but I couldn’t find anything that said otherwise. |

Said in the other thread we could do worse than look at the ex Widnes youngster who's down in London now, Olly Ashall-Bott seem to remember him being an excellent prospect.
Would also have the benefit of not being on bank breaking wages so we can maybe use the saving on Evalds contract on a better replacement for Brown, that is the key.

I've said that I'd trade him now and if that means somewhere else on the Road to Cas so be it!

Furlough him and forget him, let the government pay his wages until next season (and I'm only half joking lol)

There's plenty of options but Olly Ashall Bolt would be a brilliant shout. Has already played at Widnes in SL and showed some really good promise.

I would look down under myself, for a young player that is close to getting into a Nrl team, but cant because of long term fullbacks in front of him, Even if the club wants him back in say 3 yrs, there is plenty of young talent down under that WATTO could blend into the team.

Now he looks very special MR Doesn’t show his defence though that’s the only downside of the video. JLJ looked good on youtube😀 |
