Player signings around the Grounds

[gallagher]

Jack Bird wants to play 5/8 or fullback. Would he be wanting more than Brooks?

Not sure if he wants more than Brooks, but one thing is for certain he will got offered more and by more clubs

Except us, We wont even pick up the phone.
Were a sad mob.

Funny isn't it last year Brooks was 21 and at the end of the year he had played 66 FG games. At the same age Josh Reynolds hadn't even made his FG debut. In fact he hadn't played a FG game in the halves until he was 23\. Brooks won't be 23 until next year. Despite all that last year Reynolds made 12 more errors then Brooks, gave away 4 more penalties, had less try assists and half as many line break assists and all that behind prob the best pack in the game and if we signed him next year he would be 29 a few weeks into the season - Now Brooks may not be perfect but he is still much better then Josh Reynolds every day of the week

Good post. The Dogs' pack will defend against errors made by their halves and both Dogs' halves made errors against the Roosters.

BOOM… Thats exactly how it works!

Brooks for Reynolds would do me.

Only if we are talking about Adam not Jockstrap

HOW MUCH?

Did you know Josh Reynolds is being shopped around at an asking price of $800,000 a season?

Fox sports reporting we've upgraded our offer to Noffa due to Parra's interest and he's looking likely to stay.

Our club doesn't have a phone. We couldn't afford the bill so it got disconnected.

Good, I'd rather him than Brooks if it came to that. He's actually quite an important part of our side imo.

Dale Copley signs 2 Year Deal with Titans..effective immediately..

Kudos to the NRL for yet again stumping up the cash for the Titans so that they can fill yet another hole in their roster. What a ####### crock, do they not have a salary cap limit on the Gold Coast? Copley wouldn't have come cheap.
Wish we had the luxury of just picking up a better than average player (or basically any player for that matter) when we pick up an injury or 2.

Yep, it sucks alright, but I guess there is some justice with Hayne becoming a thorn in their side, rather than the supposed superstar they thought they had signed :smiling_imp:

Roosters will be paying part of Copley's contract for the next 2 years so he's cheaper than he would otherwise have been. They've shed a lot of players up there too - Mead, Hoffman, Macdonald, Luke Douglas, Greg Bird…I don't think they're that suss.

I would have thought he would have been a great replacement for Simona. Obviously another QLD player wanting to head backcross the border

 

[happy_tiger]

After watching the Intrust super Cup clash between Ipswich and the Blackhawks we need to offer Carlin Anderson a contract NOW

Hurry up Geo , ring your contacts make it happen

 

[Geo]

Goes alright..was thinking the same thing..

Seve blows tho..

Jonathan Ruben looks like a unit too..Know anything about him…?

Easts wanted $200k a year for Copley and they pay the rest. Yes they have offloaded a fair few, but geez havent they brought some in, Hayne, Peats, Hurrell, McQueen, Sarginson, Roberts, Copley, Shillington, Proctor, Wallace and some others.

Hopefully this rumour is as solid as him signing with the Rooster!!
