We are drawing ever closer to the beginning of the 2024 season.
Although we're yet to even see a team names for the first set of official trials, teams are looking toward their 2025 rosters.
There is literally millions of dollars worth of NRL talent off-contract and able to discuss their futures for 2025 and beyond.
One such player is the extremely talented Adam Doueihi.
Despite enjoying a level of success with the Tigers, I get the feeling it is time to move on for the five-eighth turned centre turned five-eighth again.
I have no doubt in the world that there will be a host of clubs looking at the 25 year-old.
Below are five very possible potential landing destinations for Adam Doueihi.
I don't see re-signing with the Tigers as an option. He has previously expressed frustrations with his role within the club while I believe the Tigers need to move also.
4. Parramatta Eels
At the risk of being very blunt here, the Eels have title contending halves and forwards.
They're backline though, with the greatest of respect, doesn't measure up to the elite sides.
I'm not saying adding Adam Doueihi puts them on par with the Panthers, Broncos etc but I am absolutely saying it improves their two through five.
Much like with the Storm, his days as a full-time number six would be temporarily over, but there is undoubtedly a spot in that backline for Doueihi.
Whether or not he'd be willing to make the short trip to join a rival club is up for debate but, selfishly, it would be a super storyline to add to future clashes.
This may be another watch and wait situation. If Penisi, Asi and co hit the ground running, there may be no need to act.
That said, if they start slow, and the Eels depth out wide is not great, they too could be an option for an early switch.
