Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

A record no of kids trying out for our jumior teams plus those already in those various teams. Would be good if we could spot the real x factor ones at the older end of the scale like a classy 19 yr old on and off the field
Storm take a chance on a kid called Nicco and a couple of years later he wins the Dalley M . Even with all the players they are losing this year I bet they will fill the holes with smart recruits ..
And according to a handful on here and the whole media it is only us that let these type players go.
 
We should be all over it and hope the cows do us a solid after we gave them Lucy for free
This is the bit:

The Dolphins have emerged as frontrunners to sign Maroons flyer Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow as he closes in on a move away from Townsville.

The North Queensland outside back has been given permission to negotiate with rival clubs and has been on the radar of a host of sides who are enamoured with his speed and talent.

However, it is understood the Dolphins are the leading the way in the pursuit of the 21-year-old.

Tabuai-Fidow wants to play fullback but the Cowboys have made their intentions clear after they re-signed Scott Drinkwater to a long-term deal. That leaves Tabuai-Fidow, who has 12 months left on his deal, on the outs as he looks to lock down the No.1 jersey at another club.

The Dolphins were in the mix for Reece Walsh before he opted to join Brisbane and also harbour an interest in St George Illawarra youngster Tyrell Sloan, who has approached the Dragons over a release.

St George Illawarra have thus far refused to let him go. The Dolphins’ pursuit of Tabuai-Fidow indicates they are losing their fight to secure Sloan for their inaugural year in 2023.

Tabuai-Fidow played centre for Queensland in the Origin decider last year. He has already played 50 top grade games but spent a lot of time on North Queensland’s bench this year.
 
Called for it a few weeks back. Surely we are in the picture.
I dont think he is fullback material. All wingers these days think they can play fullback, but there so much more to it than just catching bombs. A good fullback is a natrual leader,organizes the defense, and can read a game. He sees things in the opposition defensive patterns & exploits these weaknesses, & will change his running lines to take the advantage. I havent seen that in the hammer. Just a good winger IMHO.
