We should be all over Hawkins, he'd bring so much balance and stability to the side, a proper controlling 7 with some real quality. But we'll probably balls up any offer we put forward, unsure whoelse would be in for a 7, most other teams seem set. I'd offer him marquee money (if we can) with no get out clause.

He is the type of player we need, but I'd maybe avoid, lets say we sign him tomorrow, he has just made the starting line up, lets say the next few games he does really well, would he still come?

We were V close to signing him during Brett Hodgsons reign, backed out as didn’t want to give up on NRL. Should he not take his chance and souths decide to give Wighton a go in half’s, I think he’ll be on the market

Worse case scenario would be we should get a decent fee for him but he's exactly the sort of player we should be trying to get. Knowing us we'll end up with a lower end championship 7 and told to be patient for another year.

A fee

Like we did for Sneyd, Abdul, Litten, Griffin, Connor and Clifford.

We just give players away.

If Carlos is out for 12 weeks and he has anything about him he would retire, must be getting to the point of being long term for him. Done really well out of the club and him going would help us out.

Wondering what the clubs recruitment strategy is going forward.

Cannot blame the covid loan any longer after this season.

Come on Pearson the loyal paying fans who have put alot of money in would like some clarity

When was the last time the club announced something that got us all really excited?
