Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Why would anyone be silly enough to expect a signing announcement?

Signing announcements don’t come via teasers and set launch times.

This. Gotta say, there’s no way this was going to be any sort of player signing. Not a very exciting announcement, but it was always going to be a sales/marketing related exercise.

With this week's news that a talented Magpies junior Zak Clarke is off to Penrith next season, it got me thinking who are our 'must keeps' from pathways (knowing that we can't keep all our juniors).

Have divided into 2 categories (and not including those who will be Top 30 or Dev next year):

1 - Those too old for Jersey Flegg next season (so would have to be signed as a T&T or NSW Cup contract)
2 - Our current 17-20 yos

21yos moving into seniors next year 'must keeps' (Only 5 I'd be keen to retain, the 5th is a ??? too)
1. Bailey Hodges
2. Cayne Nicholas
3. Herman Tofaeono
4. Vaka Aho
5. Kobie Wilson

Our 17-20yos 'must keeps'
1. Haemasi Makasini (17)
2. Onitoni Large (17)
3. Christian Taupau-Moors (17)
4. Pheonix Godinet (17)
5. Lachlan Broederlow (20)
6. Navren Willett (19)
7. Jared Haywood (18)
8. Archie Duncombe (18)
9. Alex Isdale (17)
10. Mitchell Taotua (19)
11. Maxwell Taotua (19)
12. Peter Ta'ai (17)

NOTE: We have a lot of exceptional 16yos (Ashton Large, Siotame Havea & quite a few from Andrew Johns Cup)

Thoughts?

I think if ur 21 and haven’t made a 1st grade appearance then u might not make any ever , all the really talented kids just burst onto the scene, YES others do take time , BUT our team doesn’t have time , the clock is ticking if we don’t get off the bottom next year it might never happen
 
I just get so pissed off with clubs allowed to just keep changing their stripe , it’s not cheap to buy them , people are doing it tuff , Nrl should fire up and say , new footy jersey last 2 years not change every year , it’s a rip off , and all,our teams should be wearing exact same strip
home jersey
away Jersey both 2 years
indigenous round , new one each year
that’s it

Um we have had the same jersey last 3 years pretty much....probably longer....
 
I find it interesting that Brad Parker has been playing in the backrow for Manly. I've said many times on here how I believe the tougher outside backs, particularly centres make very good backrowers. They are natural hole runners, so they run great lines for the halves, and the extra speed and mobility makes them very effective. They just have to be tough. I think we would all agree Parker is tough. I'd love to know how he has been going.

All rangas are tough
There’s that much steel in their body it exudes out in rust 😊
