my big concern is him without renyolds going be intresting hes going be a senior half when he goes and i really dont think he has what it takes to step up



heres my reasoning think about how much he hasnt had renyolds and if adam stays to 2025 i not sure he be ready to take riegns alone
Reynolds best is well and truly behind him as well. His form at the back-end of last season was poor.

Pushed his price up making them unable to bid for some very good juniors around town. Apart from the GF where he had a blinder. I didn't think he was that good anyway. But of course would have been a good #6 to partner Katoa for us. Not trying to say he's not any good. Just overrated from what I've seen.
I think you’re right on all accounts.

We do need to replace SoS somehow.

If SoS starts this season like he finished last, I think Milf can do ok. But Apparently Kurt Donoghoe played well at 5/8 in the trial last weekend. Then there is Kodi.

So there are options if SoS isn't cutting it.

I think they will keep Kodi for his utility value. Can't see Milf being retained unless he has a huge year and even then, only a one year extension.

Who knows with Kurt. He's not a hooker or a lock. Maybe 5/8 is his go.

I have a feeling all might be let go. I'm a Niko fan but he isn't getting any younger. Plus I think most clubs prefer specialists in various positions.

You are a one-eyed fan for sure. From what I've seen he goes ok. But very far from one of the most promising.

Storm would've kept him. Have ample salary cap space.

Probably a good player. But not one of the most promising.

with our props getting due to retire and injury i wonder if we are in talks with John Asiata. even though just 30 could give us experince for 2 or 3 seasons till we find some young ones
