Rumour, Comings and Goings 2009 / 2010 season...

My cousin interviewed Gareth Ellis earlier this year, and Gareth said he's going to try to do all he can to get Sam Burgess to sign with the Tigers. Apparently their families are very close.

That doesn't guarantee anything, but it's a good start.

That is where our problem lies, our players having to "up-size" to fit into forward roles… :angry:

I think you will find that we get bulkier as we get older, anyway.

Josh Lewis has signed with the Sharks!…for 2010

What's that now… Club # 1000

Don't know why BRET signed him?

He will get no game time at the Sharks... Porter, Barrett, Morris (LOL) and Albert Kelly are all ahead of him...
 
Am I misremembering or was it Seymour that kept Prince out of first grade at the Broncos and thus allowed us to buy him? If that is the case I feel some warmth towards him. And you never know sometimes in addiction cases people need to hit rock bottom before they realise what it is they are about to lose…maybe he would welcome a third chance or maybe like Reni Matua, it's too late. He's got a good kicking game, doesn't he?
 
There's no way in the world that Seymour ever has and ever will keep Scott Prince out of a position on any team. The reason why Scott Prince left the Broncos was he was constantly injured and he had no luck and Wayne Bennett told him he might find better luck elsewhere. To this day Wayne Bennett says that letting Prince go was his biggest regret.
 
Vuna has stated he intends to see out his contract which ends next year.

I think Lewis may get a shot at the Sharks. It wouldn't suprise me to see Barrett moving to lock next year to be honest. Either way his form has warranted a call up that never eventuated here
 
As a joke on LU I put Inu in my 'next years' team'. A Parra fan said:

"Interesting you should say that, the rumours are getting louder out out way."

Also Ben Ikin (I think) was stuffing them around about whether he was going to re-sign.

wasn't ricky stuart coach when he was at the roosters?
I guess ricky sees something in him and wants togive him a shot.
good luck to him. I too think he should have been given a crack in first grade some point earlier in the year.
