Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Not the same at all because Johansen did show something when he played FG in his short spell and in reggies,Lobb showed nothing at the Dragons or in reserve grade here to get enthused about.Lobb is young and it may happen but he is slow and it is hard to see him being a success even in reggies
Lobb >>>>>>Second Row???
 
Thinking about how the dominos may fall in our favour ...

Bateman to Manly - they have 2 roster spots open but Lehi Hopoate still on Development.
Bateman to Rabbits - probably unlikely as backrow not one of their needs but have a few roster spots available.
Bateman to Broncos - possibly if Broncos don't land Hunt with his salary. Madge has said he wants more aggression in the pack but has committed to Hetherington as a middle/backrow option.

Doueihi to Dragons - if Dragons don't go for Ilias.
Doueihi to Rabbits - possibly if Ilias departs, a backup half & backline utility, but unlikely.
Doueihi to Broncos - may be a good chance if Broncos don't land Hunt, Mam's replacement & then reverts to backline utility when he returns.
Doueihi to Roosters - if Roosters don't land Hunt, for his backline utility value, remember he was snapped chatting to Trent Robinson at the backend of last season at Wentworth Park!

Sullivan to Rabbits - if Ilias departs as backup halfback & we pay 50% of freight.
Naden to Manly - with the former WT staff there may see value, backline backup.

Can't see much else transpiring, anyone else?
 
Yeah I used to read a lot of stat sites. I don’t play fantasy but they have good websites with good current stats and I like to win tipping comps, But since I got sick I couldn’t be bothered spending the extra time. @Tucker and his stat posts have been a good read, I don’t have to do the leg work. Thanks for those to btw Tucker.
It would be good to have GK stats on our current top 30 and maybe the next group coming through. It’s something I think NRL teams and players could be better at. A goal is worth 50% of a try and the only skill it takes is to kick a ball straight. There’s been plenty of park wingers that have played the top grade bcoz they can GK. Hi Ross. I can’t believe more average players don’t kick more, imagine if Nof GKed at 88%, Ii wouldn’t matter so much that he can’t count.
Yes, there almost always not so long ago used to be the average, but not great, winger / centre, that was the goal kicker- El Mazri & Conlon come to mind quickly but there were so many others.

Reasoning seems right. Lets hope. Never again such really bad contracts of Bateman and Sullivan- nothing against either person, never met them, but too much money and way too long. Have to shift atleast 1 if not 2 of them.

Sullivan and Bateman most critical given they still have 3 and 2 years to run on their sizeable contracts.

If richo can work some magic there, I think doueihi and naden can stay and strengthen cup (as long as naden isn't a cancer for benji)

If we weren’t so tight for roster spots Douhie’s contract is pretty good value for someone with his versatility. Also only for a year. Contracts like his aren’t bad within a top 30 allowing money to be spent elsewhere.

I think our roster is in a lot better shape than it was a year or so ago. If we could move on from a couple of other bad value contracts and get the right replacements in then we are looking pretty good.

I think Saukuru will be lucky to last.

But I totally agree except for Naden.

Bateman, Douiehi & Sullivan all options that have a chance to be moved for one reason or another.
 
I wont pull words from your wife's mouth ,but you just dont understand me.lol,im chilled, really how hard can putting a ball between two sticks be ,yet it seems to be a lack of talent amongst professional league players.
I compare it with Snooker!!!!!!
How many times can you miss a straight pot?
Snooker champions sink it, and the rest miss it? Some have it, some don't.
