I did a quick bit of research.
Thanks to TIF's thread 2023 Squad - The List Sam Spink is listed as signed to the Western Force until 2024.
How good is that?

With the news that London Irish may be in financial trouble, if they fold like Worcester and Wasps then there are some interesting names who may become available for next year: Ollie Hoskins and Adam Coleman. Both ~30, but have Force links.
Yeah, definitely need to lock in a lot of this team.
tizz, stewart, burey, kirbige, pulu... shit, i think i would keep the lot. well, i think poolman is undercooked, and Bo Abra is probably more of an injury cover prop. But pretty happy with how the team is looking.
And contrast that to the start of the season where i was pissing and moaning about the complete change we have had with the team... humble pie!
Like everyone is saying, the team is young, and i think really building. there are some old heads in the background who are mentoring and assisting them come into their own, which will hopefully mean that we have a team that has a few years together, that is relatively stable, and is able to build the kind of cohesiveness that you get with time spent together.
in the final in 2025... X, put up a book! (not that i have any vBucks to put on!)
nah, not what i got, just sounded like you would pick Callan over Tizzano, which i would not, based on the impact i am seeing from Tizz. Callan is just a bit small for my liking, i guess in the same size bracket as Hodgo. I like that there is some meat on Tizz, that gives some more impact.
I have to say, i am really enjoying some positive team chat :D
I’m loving the way we’ve been able to have a stable 9,10,12,13 for a few weeks. They really gelled well on the weekend. Stewart was able to drift in and out of 10 really well.
Jeremy Williams for mine is the player that’s really coming into his own and I’m throwing it out there a wallaby bolter. The confidence he’s now displaying on the field is awesome. Really going to help take the pressure off Rodda when he comes back.
The only thing I’d like to see is someone working a bit more at 6.
No, certainly not pushing for Callan over Carlo right now, but there is a risk in using Carlo exlusively until he retires or breaks and that is that we're left with another hole.
Use the fact that we have an awesome option at 7 to give the pup the opportunity to learn his craft without the pressure of being the only option.
ps has anybody thought how much Carlo looks like Hodgo in his playing days?
