Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Any moment the roosters fan boys will begin celebrating/furiously justifying Spencer Leinu's signing at under market value. It's good for the game that the talent is so inequitably spread across the league after all.

So they sign Young last week Leinu this week , yet I don’t see that they have released anyone , the NRL r a joke , because they will not say a thing about the roooters signing players for less money than they could have got else where

Just reported on SEN that Sunia Turuva to Wests Tigers..

Next year signing?
He is API’s cousin though makes no sense unless Panthers are signing Dom for a year and they play to play McClean / May in centres next year over Turuva. Could also mean they are getting pressure to elevate Ilongi into a top 30 spot.

A mile of players have left the roosters in the past year. Most were signed as depth but some may of been on long term larger deals.
They don’t have the same depth of squad as they’ve had in previous years, will be relying on juniors coming good for depth.

Dunno. Angus Crichton may never play again if the rumours are true and I think he only signed a one year extension. That's a fair chunk of coin freed up for 2024

I have wanted this kid for a while.
He is a gun and thought we should’ve targeted him well over Staines.

Have been talking him up so bet if he comes will be the king of reggies and flop of firsts

Panthers junior system.
Can cover Fullback / Center / Winger.
Makes 200mtrs a game with ease - had 3 games of over 400mtrs as well, fast & athletic.
Ball skills are so so but more an athletic line runner style.

I would only view him as a fullback option.

He is rated alot at the Panthers but has Edwards infront of him, would be surprised if he leaves with Crichton moving on unless he doesn’t want to play center & views himself as a fullback only.

Would be a great centre option

Never heard of the kid but just watched his cup highlights looks decent, maybe Ken is going to get med retired.

I want to give this post a like and a funny comment.

I've decided it's better to rubbish the players and then they prove me wrong. It's better than praising them and they are duds.

He got MOM for Fiji playing fullback in the mid year internationals last year and played at the WC. He reminds me of Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow

Heard it on Radio..bit difficult to post

 

[rusted-on]

No doubt

But stronger has more tackle breaks in him Super super quick light on his feet and has a great fend

Wakeham played well in the second trial in a decent team.Id have him on the bench instead of simpkin.Im sure wakeham could cover dummy half for 15 or20 minutes which is al Api will need

You must really hate Simpkin

 

[Demps]

Turuva > Staines, Laurie

Interesting.
Believe it when I see it
