Mitch Rein

@supercoach said:
Could go alright sharing the role with Liddle, but apparently if you believe what you read he wanted 600g a year to stay at St Merge, and he sure is not a 600g a year player.

If we are chasing Rein it would mean Balin is not making a comeback

And is that a surprise??
 
He fit well with the mediocrity system.
It's funny though that I seem to be quite a lot of support from here last year to get him if the hooker position was open. What do they say about being careful what you wish for,

I don't think he's half as bad as some of you are making him out to be.

Yep agree, not sure why there's all the hate.

It's not hate.

- He's not very good.
- He thinks he's very good.
- He will want to be paid like he's very good.
- He's not very good

That makes him a bad player to chase.

In your opinion of course.

Yeah well you can take is as given that anything I post is my opinion and nothing more, I really can't be bothered saying it every time I post…
 
The fact nearly all of the dragon fans cant wait to get rid of him says it all.He is not a good player we dont need him

Dragons fans said the same about Trent Merrin !

Rein goes ok …. Better than Ballin IMO

They didn't say that about Merrin before he left, they said it as sour grapes after they realised he was going. They've wanted Rein gone for years. That's not to say that fans are always accurate in their judgment of players, but I think Dragons fans are on the money with Rein. He overplays his hand and he's usually holding a 2-7 off suit.

Tell me Geo , he's not a plodder is he Geo ?

I would rather a fit Ballin for next season, we've seen nothing of him in our colours, but it looks like he is busted. Great signing, in the mould of Jason Cayless! :unamused:

I remember being reasonably pleased with Cayless's early appearances. I think he was the only bloke in history who had to retire due to persistent groin boils. He still did better than Tame Tupou.
 
I think Rein to Tigers was first mentioned by Benji on Fox last night where he said if Rein leaves the Dragons he would be a good fit at the Tigers.
Of course Dragons fans would say that Rein is crap- they turn on their own even quicker than WT fans do and that is saying something.
He was playing well enough 2 seasons ago that he was strongly mentioned as being close to playing Origin.
Happy enough for him to play for us but obviously you wouldn't want to be paying top dollar for him. He may be happy to take unders to have the opportunity of a fresh start and to partner Moses and Tedesco in the spine, would be a bit more enticing than what he is working with at the Dragons.
 
Surely he is at least the second best hooker on the market, and the other is a damn sight cheaper.

Makes me wonder why no one wants him either.

Yeah I was wrapt when we first signed Cayless, same with Ballin, til I found out they were busted!
