I think Dwyer may have already agreed to be elsewhere next year if you believe some of the talk, but he has shown us exactly what we need from dummy half; pace and vision. I'd get Sao and Satae signed up, not sure on Savelio though, as badly as we need him now, I would be looking for someone more durable in the back row, so we can build a consistent and reliable pack. Sao, prior to his dead leg, was very good and I think he'll shore up things when Satae and Taylor are off the pitch. If Taylor can maintain this form, great and give him another year. Connor Wynne really needs a big year and needs to curb his temper and emotion, there is a player in there, so I'd give him a go, along with Scott. Balmforth is reckoned to be a player with potential, so if he stays we should expect him to be introduced gradually this year, otherwise I think we'll need some more dummy half options as Lovo, for me anyway, is not worth a quota spot. Evans is one I'd let go, there are some superb NSW props to tap up and I am sure Smith will have some good contacts. I just hope Hoy stays, I have a nagging doubt about him staying for 2 years, hope I am wrong but something tells me he won't.
