Still banging on about Abduls weight? He can run around that pitch looking like a Buddha for me, as long as he does the job asked of him. We are such a toxic set of fans it's embarrassing.

Anyhow,,,,, think we'll be looking at milford, he's experienced so can guide the youngsters, capped international so can help sell season passes and not that 'old'

Don’t question a professional athlete’s fitness or you are toxic….deary me. The fact Cartwright has got him on a plan now after having a go says all you need to know.

i think milford would do well over here,he can be a bit hit and miss in the nrl,but the extra freedom he would get over here would benefit him.pity kodi nikorima has just signed a new contract,he would be great playing over here.

Zero chance of signing someone like Nikorima, he plays every week for a top 8 side, will only get fringe players or those at the end of their career.

Sullivan doesn’t want to come to Super League either

Not sure where else he can go, if he can't get into the worst team in the NRL, he hasn't many options.

He can just play reserve grade on big money as he’s got a 4 year deal worth 2.2 million dollars over those 4 years.

I’ve been told he’s got no interest in SL so it’s not going to happen.

I would be happy with Sullivan or Milford. Milford actually looks pretty fit at the moment playing for the Capras. Setting up tries, line breaks. He is 30 though, so if he came would it be seen as a last payday? Sullivan is younger, but would he be aching to get back to the NRL after a year or 2

Would it be such a bad thing if someone younger only stayed a year? If we brought in someone like Sullivan and his motivation was to earn an NRL deal bring it on. I’m just fed up of watching rubbish. Part of the reason we are struggling to recruit players is because we’ve been so poor on the field, we really need to change that short term.

I'd rather stick with what we have a either save or use the quota spot on another position.

Oli Leyland wouldn't be a bad option either.
