Still doing well in NRL at the Roosters. Would be a decent replacement for the short term until tierney comes through.

Tweets from @rugbyleaguenews if anybody hasnt seen it and wants to take a look.

I'd take that if Sam is definitely off.

Any replacement needs to be top class and he certainly is that. Some will look at his age but we've got a very young side so his experience will come in very handy. We've also got a couple if youngsters who will be ready in 1-2 years to step in to his shoes so we're probably not looking for a fullback that will be here in the long term.

True. If he is gone, i don't envy anybody who does come in, they will have a very difficult job.

Fans will be ok with Minichello, he is and always has been a class act.
The U age fb's at the club will learn a lot from him.
If Sam is not here next year Minichello would do fine for me.

Yep. Would definitely take Minichello. Plus, he's from the same wonderfully named suburb of Sydney as Pat (Liverpool )

On a two year deal would be great signing. A model pro who is still playing well and someone who could help bring on the likes of Tierney and Hampshire.

I heard on an NRL podcast his manager is talking with the Roosters to extend his current contract, if they do offer him another 2 years I sense he would certainly take it considering the quality of the current Roosters team and the fact he's a one club man.

Young London Broncos back signed for you guys. Asked not to pass the name along. Promising player, can play multiple positions across the back and halfback. You can work it out from there.

Ok so you're not allowed to pass on Dan Sarginsons name, mum's the word, nudge nudge wink wink.
