Signing Rumours..

[TCL]

1.2m per year is huge. Taumalolo is good but still a forward.

Jackson would be great, especially his defensive work.

I think we need to secure Woods as well. Some don't rate him but there is a good chance he is going to be NSW Cap and that would help draw players as well. From what i read before, Klemmer was considering coming to us because of his connection with Woods. Jackson maybe thinking the same?

 

[Flippedy]

Lichaa is rubbish
Fensom is a plodder, that's why he's in reserve grade

Idris is capable if switched on and we need a big hard running centre
Vaughan is just what we need
Moa is just what we need
Whare would be a great pick up

So, with that analysis, you can bet your house that we will sign Lichaa and Fensom and miss out on the rest :laughing:

Well since the word Plodder was mentioned we better make it Official

Lichaa
explosiveness = 1/5
speed = 1/5
girth = 2/5
wrongness of head = 5/5
games played vs ability = 2/5
Total = 11/25 = Plodder Grade D

Pass

Fensom
explosiveness = 1/5
speed = 2/5
girth = 4/5
wrongness of head = 5/5
games played vs ability = 5/5
Total = 17/25 = Plodder Grade B-

Pass

Idris
explosiveness = 3/5
speed = 1/5
girth = 4/5
wrongness of head = 5/5
games played vs ability = 5/5
Total = 18/25 = Plodder Grade B

Borderline

Vaughan
explosiveness = 5/5
speed = 4/5
girth = 5/5
wrongness of head = 5/5
games played vs ability = 5/5
Total = 24/25 = Plodder Grade A+

Yes Definitely…

Let's hope that we don't also miss out on signing ET.

Lichaa was a gun in the 20s,had heaps of skill. Hasler has Coached the footy out of him,making him a non running defender. He did the same to Ennis,and look how he kicked on at the Sharks. Don't think Lichaa is as bad as some make out.

 

[goldcoast_tiger]

Vaughan and Idris would do wonders for us. We are lackintg that go hard aggressive forward and a decent centre. We would go to another level with them 2.

While it seems every other team is cleaning up their roster, surely some of our roster has to be tapped on the shoulder and told to move on. Id be doing whatever i can to get them two players.

In regards to Lichaa, what a flop. Supposedly on $550k, his service is terrible. No kicking game, and cant pass the ball both ways. With Cook on the way to the sharks, cant see anyon to keen on his services. If we are interested in him then our recruitment team need to be sacked.

Shaun Fenson might be an Option for us if E.T doesn't agree to terms with us . Fenson is lingering in Reserve Grade and could be on the outer at the Raiders ,

i would think we could get fensom a bit cheaper than et, but fensom is on around 500k
a year and we dont know how much the raiders would want to subsidise that

If Raiders want to pay around $200k - $300k next year then i would happily pay the rest to have him at our Club….does the same work as E.T and hits harder to IMO

I don't think that Fensom is anything like what he was two years ago? , injuries and a general lack of form, hasn't helped. A risk we don't need.
As is Idris. We need proven players.Idris has always been a risk as far attitude is concerned.
I'd rather we went for someone who wasn't a week to week proposition,

1.2m per year is huge. Taumalolo is good but still a forward.

Jackson would be great, especially his defensive work.

I think we need to secure Woods as well. Some don't rate him but there is a good chance he is going to be NSW Cap and that would help draw players as well. From what i read before, Klemmer was considering coming to us because of his connection with Woods. Jackson maybe thinking the same?

I bet every Qlder in the country was overjoyed to hear that Woodsy could be the Origin Captain. God, I hope not.
Nice bloke, but NSW Captain…hope not

Good point .
Still don't think we need him as much as an Vaughn/Moa type forward , unless we get him of nothing.
As we are paying Souths $750 grand to have Farah we need some club to pay us to take there unwanted. Maybe that's the case with Lichaa

 

[Tigerdon]

Taking about Rumours I heard there is going to be a egging war between Cowboys and Sharks fans tonight.
Cowboys fans are bring cartoons of eggs in support of Jason and the Sharks fans are prepared.

 

[tiga4eva]

I still think 50mins per game of Liddle and 30mins from Marshall King would provide us with some real spark.

He definitely is not as bad as some posters are making out - he is worse.

As a footballer, he would make a great brick layer.

Agree to a point.

Liddle for 30 min. and Ballin for 50 min.

If Ballin doesn't make it through the rehab - we could go with Marshall King.

Best prop in the game. What is your problem?

He's up there in the top half dozen but Jesse Bromwich has a better all round game in my view.

Moltzen was a gun in the 20's.
So was that fullback we had that was hailed as the next Hodgo- went to Parra, can't remember his name.
Omar Sleimankhel was a gun in the 20's.
Being a gun in the 20's means nothing really.
Lichaa is really just a dud, it is no mirage. I'd prefer to have Robbie Mears back or Joel Luani before wasting money on Lichaa.

 

[tiga4eva]

Hasler doesn't play his side with an attacking dummy half. We don't need Lichaa,but he'll kick on at another Club

He's a big teddy bear most times, scares no one,
Better than a lot, but nowhere near the best, just my opinion

Vaughan
explosiveness = 5/5
speed = 4/5
girth = 5/5
wrongness of head = 5/5
games played vs ability = 5/5
Total = 24/25 = Plodder Grade A+

Yes Definitely…

He sure does have a bad head.

I am afraid you may be correct
