Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

We just need to get the Knights to take Luke paying full freight - then use that money to sign Ponga!🤣🤣

(Im joking before someone says Knights arent that dumb)
 
I am not against Brooks moving , however do not rate Thompson as the impact forward we need. I saw him at Leichhardt when we played Manly in the trial and he is not as big as I thought he would be.
I also would rather not help Canterbury have cap space to sign any of their future players. Imagine if Kikau, Mahoney or Sutton could not sign with them.

Brooks to Newcastle is Ok if they take all his contract.

That will do nothing but buy the players another 2-3 years of being able to use the excuse of getting settled in under a new coach. We need to offload our lazy players first and replace them with hard workers. Look at Aiden Tolman, he's used as a running joke by most fans but he still gets picked every week in a very strong Sharks pack. It's a fair bet to say he is a great trainer and committed to giving his all on game day. Those sort of players are worth more to a club than a super talented guy with a huge ego who only puts in when he feels like it.
 
A player is only as valuable as the market demands. I’d say despite what Brooks is getting paid no club is looking desperate for a starting halfback or 5/8. If injuries strike however, that could change.
The smart play would be to resign Madden for 2 years on an honest contract with the chance to upgrade end of 23.
At this stage no half is on contract In two years time.

That's exactly what they're looking to do - They're waiting for us to:
- Sack Madge
- Sign Flanagan
So they can swap young Flanno and The Pom for Brooks with us paying a heap of frieght to them....

Watch it play out....

Based off last night. Madden is finally showing the fans what it’s like to have a half that can kick a ball well.
Brooks just doesn’t have that power in his kicks for whatever reason.
I feel we will see a Madden, Doueihi halves pairing by seasons end.

I couldn't believe that Madden can actually find the turf when he kicks it. I'm used to the usual end over end rubbish straight down the fullbacks throat. Haven't been a huge fan Madden up to this point, but I was impressed with him last night. Hope he keeps it up.

Manly Sea Eagles boss Stephen Humphreys has mysteriously stepped down from his chief executive role at the club.

The Daily Telegraph can reveal the Sea Eagles board met on Thursday night over an issue that has led to his departure.


What's Humphreys son Jamie like?

Stephen was a pretty good winger and fullback for balmain in the 80's an became weststigers CEO.
He was at war with the board over factions from the joint venture between wests and balmain and left WT for manly
Do we really want him back??
