Sharks complete Tagataese deal
June 14, 2011 - 4:30PM
The signings of Sam Tagataese and Jeff Robson may not be the end of the good news for long-suffering Cronulla fans with the NRL club hopeful of completing deals for Bryce Gibbs and Andrew Fifita this week.
The Sharks have tabled offers for the Wests Tigers props, and although the pair has yet to formally agree on a switch to Toyota Stadium, the club is anticipating news of their arrival before the weekend.
A Sharks official told AAP the deals could be done this week but said there were still issues to resolve before an official announcement.

New Zealand-born Tagataese, who can play at centre or in the backrow and started his career with Melbourne, joined the Sharks from Gold Coast on Tuesday and was named on an extended bench for Sunday's clash with Canterbury at ANZ Stadium.
Halfback Robson, who helped guide Parramatta to the 2009 grand final, will depart the Eels at the end of the season after agreeing terms on a two-year contract with the Sharks.
The acquisitions of Tagataese and Robson come hot on the heels of young stars Stewart Mills, Albert Kelly and Chad Townsend agreeing to extend their contracts in recent weeks.
The Sharks, who have lost front-rowers Luke Douglas and Kade Snowden to the Titans and Newcastle respectively, have also been linked with another Tigers player.
Utility back Mitch Brown is believed to be a target for the club he left last season.

I wonder whether the club should be tracking Josh Hoffman or Gerard Beale from the Broncs. In my view, the best position for both these two guys is at fullback and obviously 2 into 1 doesnt go.
I rate Hoffman very highly.
I bring this up in this thread because I cannot imagine that all these rumoured losses - Payten, Gibbs, Fifita, Brown, Daniella, Flanagan (perhaps Fulton - are only being replaced by one player. It doesnt seem right to me, unless the balance of our squad is completely wrong.

Based on what? I know your mail is pretty spot on so I'm not having a crack. Just wonder if its related to other players now leaving or Blair not signing or Fulton re-negotiating to stay for less

I'd be wanting cash up front before I signed with the Sharks. Their finances are hardly solid.

If Fults can amstay injury free he will be a valuable member of the team. He was freakishly talented as a junior and he still has it in him.
Even if Fults stays, we are giving away a significant chunk of our costs. Where is the money going?
If we dont make any significant purchases (other than Blair) i can only assume we have a very top heavy squad.
