one yes the others in uk
If he's in the ESL, must mean he's not good enough for the NRL. Which makes him a non issue. So it's just the two of them. Unfortunately the last thing the Dolphins need at this point is another outside back.

Doesn't mean much if they grew up in England and have progressed into the ESL. If they have gone from Australia while still young (not at the end of the career) to play in the ESL, means they weren't good enough for the NRL.

all depends on the player in his case i think he just was biding his time to get nrl contract he still has ability to be a strong chance in nrl not every player that leaves is hopless all three brothers be great pick ups

Biding his time, hoping for an NRL contract.

I think we might sit this one out. Don't need an outside back or a NRL reject. Prop would be a handy pickup but probably not the other 2.

Agreed.

If its just for the 5/8th, he said he would play at Penrith.

It does smell of him trying to get his less talented brothers a gig.

Might be wrong but seriously, what is there to be wrong about? As far as I can see, 5/8 and /or 1/2 are the only positions up for grabs. Maybe one prop.
Looks pretty stable for sure. At least for the first few rounds. I think Wayne is going to go with 7. SoS and 6. Katoa.

I guess Wallace will get one more year. So that will mean "only" have to replace both Bromwich's and Nicholls.
