[magpies forever]

Nope

Positions / back with Magpies?

 

[Odessa]

If David Fifita does play for a Sydney club I reckon he'll go to the rabbitohs to play under uncle Wayne

No chance I was told awhile ago Katoa is trying to get to Souths

Bennett has to get rid of Dodd for that to happen with the cap space Bennett needs all of Dodds money for that to happen katoa and bud the future South's halves

I don’t think I’ve seen him play, but has Dodd turn out to be a Dudd ?

From what i have seen Dodd is as dead as a Dodo,admittedly i have not seen all of his games but what i saw was very underwhelming.

Katoa won't leave the Dolphins. Why would he.

Have you not seen Lehi Hopoate?

Whenever I hear talk of how good Hopoate is I think of this game.

Try 3, Kennedy....that's some special effort from Hopoate in there...

Brooks still got his pace.

 

[JC99]

Brooks still got his pace.

That's just about all he's got... he's playing awful this year. Thank god we finally cut ties with that loser

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Thank god we finally cut ties with that loser

I know right. We went on to get ANOTHER spoon.

 

[Red88_Tiger]

I’d agree with you any other time, but he really does seem to be playing like he’s gone on for one season too many. I think retirement beckons. We don’t need to sign any more has beens, no matter how good they once were.

Were competitive most parts now I just think he’d provide extra composure in the tighter games
If Latu is heir (supposedly) and out plays him then you’re in a good position. With a club favourable contract say he plays well and you take an extra year you are still only carrying load in the cap for 1 year. It would be like other wastes we’ve had sponging for multiple years

Edit- we seem also to be infusing younger players so experience is a plus. Not to mention he did have enough form to get selected for qld. Yes he got dropped but did earn his original selection

What do ya mean? It was all Brooksies fault!!!

 

[Demps]

Positions / back with Magpies?

Hasn't returned.

Was mentioned on here.
Nothing official.

 

[Odessa]

Katoa won't leave the Dolphins. Why would he.

He has said he wants to return to Sydney let's see what happens

The rumour he is going to Newcastle is wrong he wants to come home to Sydney

 

[Odessa]

I don’t think I’ve seen him play, but has Dodd turn out to be a Dudd ?

Dodds is on 750K and is enjoying the Sydney holiday could be hard to get rid of him

Bennett won't play him in first grade unless he has to

With katoa Bennett can win a title

 

[Aceshigh]

If David Fifita does play for a Sydney club I reckon he'll go to the rabbitohs to play under uncle Wayne

They got no spots or cap space

The injured Hopoate in Canberra is pretty good as well

 

[TigerTone]

Where'd that get invented?

He was Born in Brisbane and Did most of High School at Keebra.

My bad i must've been thinking about some one else.
You're right.
Either way maybe a change of scenery will be good for him.

Either way maybe a sea change will be good for him.

See change?

He lives on the Gold Coast
😂😂😂

Money - Career Future....
He's their best player, And would be the same or one of wherever he went.

 

[weststigerman]

Ah, but they would / might actually be in their proper positions with Moses 7 and Brooks 6. Would be interesting for posterity to see if the suspicion of them being played the wrong way around was more correct than wrong.

They were definitely played the wrong way. We can thank Jason Taylor for that wisdom.
