Alfi's going to Japan
We should start some sort of Fans movement to get MMM and HB to commit to new 2-3 year deals asap
Don't forget Sam Christie, he will need a contract for 2014 and beyond..

Gaffa got confirmation from the players at the club today that he is on his way for more money and I believe one or two members of this forum got confirmation from the man himself at the fans day today
Badger, Faulkner, MMM and Lynn need to be signed. Others can come and go depending on how they finish up this year and who else is on the market to replace then.
For me the key retention players are listed below based on games and experience. This is not discounting the other players but haven't seen enough of them yet.
Nick Cummins
Tetera Faulkner
Toby Lynn
Alfie Mafi
Ben Whittaker
Hugh McMeniman
Generally speaking you aren’t learning much if your lips are moving!!!
The info I was given was that the Force/RugbyWA knew nothing of the Japanese move until I tweeted AM the link to the Telegraph article that was posted on here (by PeterM I think?) and asked him why he was going. It's also my understanding that the move may not be as 'signed, sealed and delivered' as the Tele reported.
So, maybe this will open negotiations between him and RugbyWA! Not sure who passed the info to the Tele journo but it wouldn't be the first time such a tactic has been used as leverage!

Ben Whittaker hasn't earnt a new contract yet in my opinion.
Alfie's looking for a pay rise and deserves one.
If we could keep MMM and snare either Simmonds or Douglass i don't know if i'd be in a hurry to re-sign Wykes or Lynn.
HB and Faulkner are must re-sign players and Salesi Manu should replace Maafu.
Dellit for another contract too. When he's fit he's a handy player, just needs to get healthy.
I still strongly believe there are some local players worth a go too. Louwrens, Burton, Hoskins and Pereira especially.
There are 3 types of people in this world, those that can count and those that can't
Ben Whittaker has missed a bit of rugby through injury but he is an absolute must to re-sign. We have a big shortage of good quality hookers. The Rebels have two non-Wallaby eligible players. The Tahs are probably soon going to give up on Damien Fitzpatrick. The Brumbies and Reds are fairly well stocked but need to retain the guys they already have.
It would be good to have two starting quality hookers on rotating 2 year deals so that we are never in the position where we lose both at once.

Stickied thread and added Hugh's signing!
Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.
Of the remainder I'd put stars next to Cummins, Faulkner and Rasolea. If Alfi isn't a lost cause I'd put stars and highlighter, bold text and glitter tape. The rest could be replaced by better, so I'd be making a decision based upon what other options are out there.
