Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Once we mathematically can't make the 8, I think we should offer the Cowboys Luc early for Griffin Neame.

Cowboys have Luki, Nanai, Gilbert, Neame already in the backrow - surely they cant keep them all.

I'd also ask Manly what they would offer for Kelma early

You would think Dolphins will be after QLD based players from Cowboys, Broncos and Titans.

Agree Cowboys seem to be blessed with Second Rowers and Neame might have his NRL path blocked.

Storm need to rebuild their pack so that is another team we need to complete with for players.
 
unsure if we'll re-sign Tamou, but even if we don't I feel our pack is shaping up nicely if these potential signings come off.

8. Utoikamanu
9. Koroisau
10. Twal
11. Papali'i
12. Aitken*
13. Ofahengaue

14. Ngatikaura/Simpkin
15. Musgrove
16. Hopgood*
17. Seyfarth

Depth: Blore, Pole, Doorey*, Topine*, Peachey, O'Kane, Tumeth.
Development: Matamua, Saukuru.

I don't think AD is a great five eighth either, I know on here that is sacraligeous

I agree with AD, he has a nice long ball and moves quiet well but sometimes he doesn't straighten the attack and also last year a couple of times should have past the ball.
If he was fit as a fifdle and was available right now he could either be fullback or centre.
If we were in a position to buy a ⅝ it should be a specialist one.

He is an ok 6 but I think Brooks speed complements Hastings 7 better
He is a solid centre and at a pinch a fullback if need to be
Is he a 13 potentially in a Cameron Murray and Yeo type role ? except he does not defend well enough
He is a good goal kicker but so is Hastings
I get he is a good captain and voice but he doesn't have a specialist spot in the team that he really owns. He is kind of a jack of all trades

Thats because he's never given an extended go at one particular position. He is always shuffled for the betterment of the team. He's got the ability to own a position (not fullback), however just like any other player you need to actually play him there for an extended time..

Have a feeling Tamou will either choose us or retirement (if we offer him something...he's certainly playing like he wants to run around again)

Not sure if he'll wanna change clubs again this late into his career

Penrith probably have an off field role gift wrapped and ready for him. I don't care how well he's done over the last few weeks. The fact it's taken until round 7 in his second year to figure out he's here to play footy isn't enough to extend his pension contract with us.
 
Come on people, if u think Ricky is going to let any of his stars leave them u most believe in Santa Claus , I would be more than happy with AItkin , lodge and matterson , and drinkwater . And I don’t care about pass crap from two of the above, both are playing good footy and that’s what we need , other teams are taking players with bad rapt sheets and they are doing fine , it’s about time we start doing the same .

Yeah there is no guarantee he won't score his final contract and then kick his feet up again. There's not much to hate about the way he's playing right now though
