Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[batboy]

Bang all you like about can't catch can't teach, doesn't make a lot of sense when arguing why we lost those early games, we were in a position to win them all, bar the Bronco's game, I would say it happened again last week against the Raiders, a good half would have got us home, or at the very least GP. Cronk, Alexander, Gallen, Parker and I could go on, all said we had no idea how to close the games out, Cronk especially was saying our halves should have got us home

Half did get us home, He didn't drop the ball from the short kick or give away the penalty....
He didn't get caught with the ball from dummy half moving wide at the death either.

I can't wait until we sign up these halves with a faultless 80 minutes you blokes all seem to think exist.

Brooks did he kicked the field goal and wasn't the one who dropped the ball from the kick off or give away the penalty

Don't get what the forums obsession with Taafe is... from the games I've seen him play he's average at best. He was in the Souths system long before Lachy Ilias yet Ilias leapfrogged him to the starting 7 role... tells you all you need to know.

100% Agree

To be fair a week ago my statement was correct. And I wasn't wrong in saying he was playing NSW Cup at 17

Where did anyone say we released Joffa expressly to sign Frizell?

Does it really Matter if it was frizell ur anyone else , because joffa is gone and WHO have we got no-one , so do u want matching wooden spoons

He can barely catch.....
Yet every second fan rates him??

He's not in the top 3 current centres or the top 4 back rowers at the club
- Why he still gets a run is beyond me?

Sorry to disagree but his defence has been very good , he is a better backrower than a centre, but he can fit in there that’s why he’s in the 17 teen

 

[Ermo]

It is a nickname that he has had for 30+ years and goes back to his days at the raiders.

Thought it was ‘Shifty’

To create cap space to upgrade some of our up and coming stars so that they don’t get poached by low life clubs like the Rorters.

I my be wrong here but I don’t think u need cap money to pay kids in sg ball or fleg , and there’s bugger all in nsw cup worth paying . And we haven’t even come close to spending this years cap

Anyone read the DT article regarding NRL rivals in fight to sign Eels Ethan Sanders? Hoping we’re in the mix.

 

[Littlebittipsy]

Or does anyone have access to the article?

Please do tell.

Heard today with Warriors having 5 halves for next year that Volkman could be available if a club wanted him. Think he would be a fantastic option for us

Where do you think his destination will be? Panthers?

 

[SeanT]

Don't think he stays here and gets out of bed every morning for 600k either.

He'll get more than that elsewhere.

Where? Not many options. St George or Canberra I guess.

At the end of the day if he resigns and his form continues to go well they can upgrade him.

He's worth 800k in effort, but he's worth 500-550k in doing his job.

 

[Ermo]

I expect him to because he's basically stolen hundreds of thousands the last 4 years by not performing any where near the required level until the last month when surprise surprise it's new contract time

You’ve been stealing oxygen for longer

I know one rumour is Staines to parra but doesn't make sense he doesn't look close to retuning.
