I'd prefer to chase Crichton or Turuva
Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion
- Thread starter MacDougall
- Start date
Chrichton is a myth, And ain't leaving Penrith....
And if he did, It would have to be for stupid money.
Edwards isn't on much more than Laurie - One of the top FB's in the game
And could give us the meters from the backfield we really need.
A lot to like about Turuva as well
- But we need some experience and someone a bit older,
We can't keep getting kid after kid after kid...
Edwards is the bloke we need.
Staunch, Tough, Competitive - Has plenty of Runs on the board.
You can through Turuva into a team like Penrith - Not into a team like the WT's
Which is why I think Edwards is ripe for the picking - And now!!

Unfortunately. I think the club is set on sticking with Laurie.
I’m not sure about that…..
Mistake number 1

You’d hope so. In what universe has he done anything to warrant getting a contract extension 12 months before his contract is up.

Any names?
More to the point - Who's buying him off us as a first choice 1?
Offer him 120k to stick around - If he takes it well and good, If not - Let him go....

I can see it. Experience, leadership & a Hodgson clone!
We were talking to Kade Dykes, allegedly.
So maybe the club isn't all in on Laurie.

I sense you have some insight into Sheens' plans/thinking. Can you tell us if he sees fullback as both Tupou's & Bula's positions moving forward?
Edwards a Hodgo clone?
He's younger and less injury prone.
My mate @Sausagesorcerer said he sees him at the shops all the time and the guy never smiles.
Serious business.

Staines at FB has forced Turuva to the wing in cup.
I think if Staines is keen and we can agree $$ we should go for him.

I hope so brah.
Built not bought type mentality.
Even if he's an important, we invested and brought him through.
Sick of former Penrith players aye...
Edwards, however... he stands out from the rest of those gallivanting show ponies. Strikes me as a real worker. I remember early days, in grade- he was woeful. Really worked on his game to become elite.
And with Suni, some ones gotta make way eventually.
Yeah mate, Agreed....
He'd have a game of running 300m one week - And dropping 12 bombs the next.
I don't know he'd do here what he's doing there, But he also may well do more.
Either way - He'd certainly be doing more than what we got.

Now that the coaching stuff is sorted (and Benji has pulling power?) what's stopping us from making a big play at fellow Kiwi Joey Manu?
Easts are stacked in all the key positions and he would look good in the number 1 jersey for us. I like Laurie but Manu is being wasted at centre for the Roosters.
