Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I see but when it was about Brooks to Newcastle 2022 or 2023 it was all believable ! right ...

They actually came out and said they want him.
Like most of our supporters the Newcastle supporters don’t want him either.

They are not top 8 halves.

Eh keep him for sure. He won't be a top 8 Halfback though. So not sure where his position is

Come to think of it I’m not sure that all three are halves at all!!

 

[TigerGene]

I know many people were against Hastings before he came, but i guessing he proved many wrong with hits guts and effort each time he put the jersey on.
We need more players like him in the team, even if hes not playing in the halves, surely they can fit him in somewhere.

Been a good metal singer for a long, long time - we’ll respect in the metal community…

On a football forum - no

Even if Brooks is done, it won’t be announced until we sign someone - would be media suicide if they let him go with no good news

Metal is one music genre that flew right by me. I'm stuck in the 60s and 70s I'm afraid. But if the guy is a quality artist he has my respect for that.

Ben Houston

I'm sure he will be a great signing for us, much like John Grant and Triston Reilly.

Tim McGann

Just had a look at the photos gallery of the players back at training. Does anyone know whom the beefcake is in pictures 1 and 2. See Sheens and Benji there.

We have no genuinely good first grade halves based on what we've seen last year or two.

We have 3 guys who would be fine as the filler in a strong spine, and none are awful. I'm OK losing any of them IF the incoming talent is better.

 

[Tiger-ferret]

At least he's better than Brooks

Disagree if you’re not joking.

The news is that Bateman and Hastings don't get on and that Hastings will be jettisoned if Bateman joins. Tough for Hastings who was here first but RL is a business where there's little room for sentiment.

Trust in Sheens.

In the Bateman vs Hastings decision, which is Andrew Fifita & which is Matt Groat

Surley any disagreement they have supposedly had can be sorted out

Bateman better be the Canberra version and not the current version.

Did we move on fafita to keep groat? Sounds about right ...

 

[Halbrowne61]

They call me Bruce.

Maybe needs a better name, like Killer or Crazy or Mental ( Mental Ward, I like it).
Bruce just doesn’t cut it, for me anyway.
