You’ve gone full nugg.
JOC (James O'Connor) has signed for Leister.
Pretty certain samu is contracted. Reds wouldn’t have the money anyways.

Too many Tooheys cans after Origin. A contract isn’t worth the paper it is written on anymore everyone knows that. Time to get bold Queensland.

JOC (James O'Connor) definitely would have been handy for the 2025 season as I reckon we would have looked better with him starting over HMP in the games Lynagh missed.
But at his age it's really a game by game assessment of whether he's up to it. He's also in the bracket of coming down with a niggling old man injury. I doubt the Reds would have been able to afford what he wanted for the risk it would be.
HMP looked pretty good against the chiefs. Until he somehow dropped the ball scoring that try.
Too many cans? You’re the one suggesting we go for 2 contracted players (one who’s mid 30s).

There's the other side of the coin, that HMP will be better in 2026 for the exposure he received through 2025

100% and I think we are all hoping that to be the case considering Lynagh may have ongoing concussion issues.
