Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Yeah that’s true. I think we just have to sign these types of players at the moment because not many guns in their primes are going to jump at the chance to sign with us unfortunately.
Even when we were on top of our game we couldn’t get deals done with the likes of Luke Lewis. That signing could have really kept our team strong I believe, but here we are ten years later and we are heading for a spoon and not a premiership
Papali'i and Koroisau are in their prime IMO. Just need more of those.
 
Gee if people on here are having a shot at brooks all the time , if madden gets a run then brooks will be of the hook , madden was terrible in nsw cup over the last few years how the hell is he going to get better playing 1st grade .
Terrible? He was our Player of the Year last year… also top point scorer in the competition.
Previously Captain of the Australian Schoolboys.
The kid must have some talent.

Get out and watch him play mate - You'll understand why the commoners aren't overly excited.
He's OK... But a half that doesn't rip it up in Ressies, Isn't all of a sudden going to take the NRL by storm...
Oh yeah, He's got 5 offers on the table (Despite having played little football in the last 2 years for anyone to have an opinion on him) Out of those "5 whimsical offers"
(Shouted out by his management I'd bet) - I wonder how many are for first position halves, Or as a back up.
I'd bet my bottom dollar the guys pushing Jocks' barrow are the same ones that have the likes of Blake Lazarus and Sean Meaney as the butt of many a joke...
 
Michael Carayannis reporting Tigers sign Sione Fainu from Manly with immediate effect... Not sure if true and can not open article.. Hope so as he will be keen to impress.

Any good and why wold Manly let him go>?
 
I hope we don't offer Briton Nikora a contract. Have watched his first 3 NRL matches this season & unimpressed with what he brings. He would just be another 'passive' forward. Yes he racks up the tackles but he was missed a terrible one on Jack Bird last night, offered little in attack & shows little to no mongrel. We need enthusiasm, a desire to be given the ball & can smack in defence. I rate Shaun Blore above this guy. One of those Bulldogs off contract backrowers or Jack Williams offer much better value than Nikora. Even prefer Jack Bird.

There was info posted that he missed a lot of football due to Covid and that Manly have good front row stocks. Our NSW Cup coach has a connection to him from Westfields Sports High. Can he bring his younger brother?

Bird can play anywhere...
Would make a great middle forward.

Wants big money I believe... OK if you can keep him fit.
