Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Not sure why short drop outs are suddenly in vogue after 100 years. One team starts trying it, and everyone goes along with it.

Took a long time to catch on.
They are a fantastic idea

You’re gonna be defending your line anyway, even if you kick it 40-50m. Least you are 50-50 of getting it back.

The Roosters signed Lodge.
End of culture discussion.

Bit more than a club culture thing - he got done for the drug rubbish but there was also the thing with his ex wife where she sued him for alleged rape during their relationship. I'm surprised the NRL let him back in.

Woods is on a T&T for Manly - somehow they missed that despite working in the same radio studio.

And I would not use the article as gospel for basic facts.

Woods is on a dev deal with Manly. Can play round 1. Loop hole if ever there was one? I wonder if his media deal with triple m is considered a third party deal?

I'd already written those 2 off especially Doueihi, thinking more along the lines of the younger guys Fainu Sullivan Galvin also thought that Mason kid was a half. I don't think it affects Large that much seeing as how young he is.

Fainu and Sullivan will duke it out for the spot next to Luai (if he comes) with one winning the spot and the other either on the bench or in Cup.

Galvin’s a toughie because his future is absolutely out of the halves but he could very easily kick up a stink given who his manager is. Mason I see as a 14 in the mould of Connor Watson, but he too could crack the shits if he wants to play in the halves more permanently.

Galvin isn’t a factor in signing Luai.

Matt Moylan apparently in talks with with an ESL club. Expect LuaI/Sharks links to gain some traction.

Sharks released him already
He’s signed with Leigh Leopards

Moylan is moving onto a new stage in his career. Out of all the attempts we've tried to sign a running 5/8 this one feels possible.

Olam will be great. We need him. Much better than any of our backs.

Blore is lame. I don’t get the hype. It looks like a tall version of Bruno Mars and is remembered for hitting Nathan Brown hard. That’s it.

100%

Lets punt the fringe grader, regardless if they had a month of good football.

We need an experienced back. We are just way too porus. Justin Olam fits the bill and unlike Joey Manu or Bradman Best, we have a strong chance of getting him.

Already gone to UK.

but Bradman Best just commented “🐯👀” on Jarome Luai’s most recent post. take that as you will.

What was Jarome’s post?
