Surely this can't be right...Just get either of them and we are a much more competitive team. Get both of them and suddenly we are very real threats. Turuva pricing himself at 500k signals to me he is content being a winger in the short term. Would still be very happy if we land Turuva and miss Lomax though.
A back 5 of:
1. Bula
2. Turuva
3. Olam
4. Lomax (Kicker)
5. Staines
Would at least be on par with the best back 5 we have ever had. Staines 500k / Naden 500k / Starford $? contracts end next year and that's 1.2 - 1.3 mil of cap space free for the backs at least. Lomax / Turuva / Lobb could fill those positions for the exact same value. The best part about signing those 2 is that it is a lot easier to bring any junior winger with potential on the other side without ruining the balance of the team.
Turuva / Makasini / Lomax could compete for centre spots in future once Olam is either injured / cooked / gone. Our backline would also be quite flexible if an injury occurs at any time. Turuva can easily shift to Centre / Fullback mid game and Lomax could easily shift to Wing / Fullback
