Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

@ said:
When are we gonna make a good signing? Rumours have it the Bulldogs are signing Dylan Napa, and their the team with salary cap problems. We should be signing him.

Its frustrating for sure but no doubt we are waiting for Maguire to announce these signings.

And thats the way it should be.

The footage was weak at best. How he got a suspended sentence is over the top. Deserves to be fined and charged with affray. There’s no way he would have been charged if he wasn’t a NRL player.

Completely wrong. Anyone would have been charged for that. Affray would have been a stupid charge. It’s generally used when there’s a bit of each way or it’s difficult to determine role in a large melee. Here it was all him going up and instigating fights - hitting people in the head and head butting. He caused ABH in two instances. Individual assault and AoABH charges were appropriate.

As for penalty, a suspended sentence is well within range, especially post-Loveridge.

It’s weak worse happens every Saturday night in Newtown. In this weak world it’s chargeable in my day cops would have given him a clip over the ears and dragged him in for the night to sober up. Sorry don’t agree with you or society it’s clearly unacceptable and moronic but hardly a beating dished out.

I live a block from the station and it’s not worse than I see daily, let alone on the weekends. Cops here when I grew up would have more than sorted him out, then again there are cops outside clubs in Sydney. He was lookin for people half his size by the looks of the cctv…probably works in Canberra.

You must go to bed early on Saturday nights.
 
Back on topic please. The court case has been decided and this is not the thread to discuss it in.

We'd be mad if we don't have a crack at him, he's got great hands, super fast, a very illusive runner, and very hard to handle / tackle. Not sure how much he's after .. but I'd say yea .. !!

on the sports breakfast this morning it was stated that duffy was really on the nose with his team mates, no reason given, but he most of done something bad i guess.

falls into the tool category..so probably not along with Wighton..

Yup, not tools or grubs just good Samaritans need apply..

Why would we sign Dufty when we have Mbye? But still dumb move by the Dragons.

Duffy has limitations, he is lighting quick, but doesn’t ball play like most modern no1s, and has defensive issues. On top of that he wants big dollars.

I hope Ricky snaps him up and we get Jack Wighton, just think he would be the ideal player to play Madgeball. Anyway I know plenty disagree, but most really good sides have at least one hard rugged centre and we have been lacking that for yonks
 
You can only sign players that are willing to come to your club and you can only offer players what your salary cap pay.

I am sure our club is out there in the market place like every other club, but the demand for the very good player outstrips the supply by some margin. So the very good players, plus plenty of average players, are in hot demand and have plenty of choices

Burgess twins are being shopped around.
Surely Madge can persuade them both to the club.
We need big boys up front asap.

True, but we need a good outside back as well, which would require a swap or player to move on to get all 3.

Lurker says McQueen to Redfern so that will free up space.

Good for all parties if true
 
Not sure that Walker would want to work under Maguire again after his time at Souths when he was (as claimed by his lawyer) "treated like a piece of meat" and "spat out".
