    It certainly does.

    Hook has greenlighted the Dragons to try and sign McCullough (25% of his $600K salary has already been paid for the year, and Bronco's may fund the shift).
    It would re-unite most of the spine Hook had when at the Broncos -> Norman, Hunt, McCullough

    Dragons are also yet to table an offer to McInnes to extend beyond 2021 (despite the fact he can talk to any parties since Nov 1).
    McInnes has met Madge for a coffee Shocked which wouldn't be super-meaningful (as he's not Bellamy) were it not for the fact that McInnes has subsequently toured the Tigers facilities.

    Tigers seem comfortable with the idea of Walters going to the Bronco's for an appropriate trade.
    Bronco's are likely okay with letting McCullough go (and create some cap space for Staggs/Coates?) - although apparently he's been "flying" at training (hopefully he doesn't fly into any houses)

    Edene Gebbie is on a train and trial too (Tigers previously tried to sign him when he was at the Rabbitohs)

    In theory it's for 2022 when he comes off contract - but as you no doubt know, when these things happen, often players end up moving earlier.

    Hook is already talking about potentially using McInnes at Lock, which is also the position he's talked about starting Bird at (as well as using Jackson Ford).

    IMO (which is really just my impression) Hook likes to be an unchallenged leader in a club, and I suspect he doesn't like how much influence McInnes has with the players + wants McCullough and is happy to use Hunt at hooker if need be.

    If the funds are there for everyone to make it work, and the players are keen it could happen... at this point it's all just idle conjecture

    On nrl casualty ward it says B. Walters knee, indefinite...his old man must know it's sweet or else why would the Broncos buy an injured player with no definite return date,

    Thought doueihi was full back but him or mbye can play numerous positions. Do either command an out an out position, I think it's time they did to benefit the team and their own games.

    Lolo marginally underpriced after a couple of short minute games, although injuries go with the territory. Also he and McInnis are the only ones of last year's top ten scorers who won't be playing Origin, which makes them a fair bit more valuable in a year with byes.

    *Edit* I suppose it's possible McInnis will dislodge Cook for SOO but Lolo *definitely* won't be playing.

    Holmes at that price has potential.

    I can’t see McInnes displacing Cook for origin.

    What a lot of people forget is Holmes came back last year after a year in America bulking up, he came back heavier than he has ever been and a tad slower. The size he was he was always going to be prone to injury and not 100% at his best.

    He has had a full year back in NRL, a full NRL off season and should come back at more of a comfortable weight… not to mention he will have Drinkwater and HTF challenging for a FB role so he will need to play for that 1 million dollar price tag.

    With Payton at the helm and a fresh start for the Cowboys I expect to see him back to a 45+ avg similar to his 2018 FB season at the Sharks. Turbo and Val will both be strong candidates for my starting squad. Both can average 45+ and under 500K…

    Another Cowboy I am super keen on is Esan Marsters… His Tigers average is 38.2ppg compared to 28.8 at the Cows… with the lack of DPP’s this season Marsters at 386K is a cheap option for an out and out Centre who can bust tackles for fun, score tries, kicks goals and rarely misses a game.

    I am tipping Cows for a top 8 finish.

    No, I only meant it was technically possible, or he might be next line with injury, whereas Lolo is 100% only playing club footy through the byes.

    Holmes will be kicking goals probably? If so adjust your ratings up for him and down for Marsters.

    Robson has some serious value if he reverts back to 80, but he was no where near as effective playing the full game in real life terms. Burr if he can get one decent minutes in the middle will go well above his price
