Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Most players, particularly these days, and barring chronic injuries, can play until they're 33/34 if their form warrants it. None in that list fall into the chronic injury category, giving all of those players somewhere between 3-5 years left.

(According to my completely made up and arbitrary average end date for modern players)
It starts getting pretty dicey as they move into their 30s, though, and you just don't want to have big liabilities out to blokes nudging their mid-30s. Put it this way: Koroisau will play his two-year deal for the Tigers in his age 30 and 31 seasons, Frizzell would start any deal at the Tigers in his age 32 season. I don't hugely object to having a look at him but if he wants a third year I'd run a mile. I'd be happier with one and a player option, but I'm sure he'll get offers for two at least.
 
I thought I read he was signing a two year extension


The Penrith Panthers have received a boost ahead of the 2023 NRL season after Blues second rower Liam Martin re-signed for a further season with the club.

Martin was already contracted for this season but has extended his deal until the end of 2024.

Not convinced we need any MORE experience in the pack tbh..young prop with size..a cple of halves..anda winger if Staines doesnt re sign
 
Camroux isn't crap. He didn't kick on as fast as it seemed he was going to, but he has some talent. Fast, big, can kick long and is a pretty good goal kicker. Bit of a dodgy one in defense and isn't much of a ball player. He's a bit like a cheap imitation version of Matt Burton at the moment. I wouldn't be surprise if he does kick on though. He has something about him.

Interesting comparison.
I thought he was more like a budget Mitch Moses.

Defo has something, love to see him keep developing. Maybe add some size.

Reminds me of Moses.

Oh sure, don't get me wrong - I'm not gonna be turning cartwheels about Frizzell under any circumstances. I'm just saying while I'd be relatively ok if we got him for a year I'd be furious if we offered him three.
 
Been awhile since I dropped some news here.....Hearing Tommy Talau could get an early release to manly. They're hitting the emergency button on their season and feel tommy could help with a lot of their issues and are willing to player swap to get it done Sipley could be on the move to our joint
