Centres & Wingers Off Contract 2014

@GNR4LIFE said:
We've made our intentions clear that we aren't signing anyone for 2015\. Pretty piss poor imo.

Looks like we'll be looking for a new ground announcer at Leichhardt !
Could be an opportunity for Mayer to announce a marquee signing :laughing:

There has been word that we had some interest in both Takairangi and Dominique Peyroux. It looks like we know we have a shortage and are trying to get a bargain.

I thought Fine looked ok yesterday. Not as fast as I hoped.

Timana tahu looked great today. Sign him up ? Wouldn't think he'd cost that much

He did look good,but Takairangi would also be good,neither would bust the bank.
 
Takairangi is a good player but not the answer for us in the outside backs. For balance we need a quicker type of centre who can play winger in a pinch. I would sign him though because he can play backrow, centre and is a capable utility playmaker too and our halves go down injured mid game causing us to suck too regularly. He'd be a good replacement for Paterson/Fulton.

We need to re-sign Thompson too and I can't see how we couldn't. We've upgraded a bunch of players but we have lost Fulton, Paterson and Anasta.

Don't rate Peyroux. Fine, Hitchcox and our NYC outside backs have more than him. I'm pretty sure Chanel Mata'utia is still off contract and the Knights are stacked with players in his positons, McManus, Mamo, Gagai, Uate, Sione, Leilua. He deserves a guaranteed first grade spot and he won't have that at Newcastle imo. I'd sign him and Pat, the other brother for overs just so we can sew the seeds of poaching Sione and Peter when the opportunity arises.
 
i mentioned before that titans have some very good outside backs.

mead, zilman, taikarangi, gordon, roberts, maurice blair (massive talent imo, very underrated). all of them are good enough to play consistent nrl. 6 doesnt go into 5 so we should make a play for one of them.

Henry has said that the one position he needs to buy players for is centre. I'm pretty sure Blair is available. I don't rate him that highly myself.

Zillman is hopeless. Roberts and Mead are definitely staying there. Maurice Blair can't nail down a spot anywhere. Gordon is out of favour but the Titans fans I know think he's useless. Don just got re-signed. Taikarangi is a forward.
 
zilman isn't hopeless. blair is extremely talented. can easily play 5/8 as well and has pretty good defense.

taikarangi has played centre most season afaik and later played half.

they're better options than what we have definitely and wouldnt cost much.

and apparently, neil henry wants more centres- so you'd think one or two of them would leave.
 
he has a massive ticker, always does everything at 100%.. has good pace, good handling skills. he's a bit small for the centres but he could work on that in the off season. he's a natural footballer as far as im concerned.
