Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Merlot]

Richo is the captain of our ship on his 1 million dollars per season wage.
Remember 2 months ago he promised he would deliver us 3 or 4 signings within a month and since that time our only signing has been KPP, so he’s fallen 2-3 short of his promise.

Richo came good on his promise ,fair /not . We got 2 soo ,n an international in the ladies team. Right on time

Tigerstigerstigers ,its twue, Not what most hoped for ,lead most up the garden path .But he didn/t lie

 

[hsvjones]

I wonder is Knights picking up Jake Arther might help us get KPP now?

 

[Demps]

Recently re-signed I think.

Zero tackle has him off contract 2026

Ricky might release him a year early now his son is getting the job done ?
Tamale is a quick tackle busting outside back that I’ve been calling for.

Surely no player has ever been suspended for accidentally running into the ref? This has to be a first, yes?

Apparently it's because Mason ran toward the ref and pushed him over. It's not intentional though imo it's just a reactionary thing to avoid a bad bump. I could be wrong.

May not make it to Nov 1.

 

[liltiger]

Is that what he’s suspended for?

Yeah mate 1 game for pushing Sutton out of the way. 🤷

Happens a few times a year. Dyl Brown this year the most recent I can think of.

if Tallyn jumps ship , i hope he ends up in Canberra

The kid Savelio Tamale @ the raiders dates one of our young NRLW players.

Maybe we can bring them closer together and sign him up?

The dragon's let him go Ricky has an eye for talent

The bloke topped the running metres and tackle breaks for NSWcup the last 2 years. Not sure it needed much of an eye.

He just did his ACL a couple of weeks ago didn’t he?

Tamale came from Rugby and didn't know how to defend. Spent a couple years in Cup as the best winger ball in hand but too raw for first grade. (I'm not advocating Sloan in this sense but he was already extended at this point and rightly so given his junior work as a fullback).
Bostock was a hugely rated kid that I don't think had even played Reggie's yet when Dolphins actively recruited him. Not so much Dragons 'let him go'.

dislocated knee

gregjm87 you sound very on the pulse, what are your thoughts on how we improve our roster to allow us to be a top 8 team in 2026 assuming Benji remains as our coach ?

I think to many injuries to the top team. But if they can keep 2 X Couchman, Egan, Stewart, Pasifiki-Tonga together long term they have some bloody good young forwards there.

they prioritised Buchanan over tamale, always had great flair in attack just needed to fix his defence, Canberra have developed him nicely . Bostock they sat on their hands with, could’ve locked him up if they wanted.
