Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Newtown]

@happy_tiger I qouted a Titans media release which was posted back on October 2018. So unless Titans have updated his contract since that time it looks that he is open to offers from other clubs for season 2020 and beyond.

@balmain-boy
Capewell 6th has and 83% 53missed / 372 made, 107 run meters per game
it is a little concerning but im taking him every day of the week over huth, rowdy, cheekam, garner, mcqueen

This would be the 2nd time Capewell has nearly joined us. Along with Christian Welch they are the closest 2020 signings we may have at the moment.
Very Close.

I like the idea of Welch - he's a good worker but he's got some dynamic elements to his game and can stretch a line. Arthars has not looked out of place in first grade - he's got some pace about him and is a good defender (very good for his age and size). I'd be happy if we could land those two.
I'm less keen on Capewell for reasons already mentioned. It's highly concerning that he had 2 games within a month where he missed 12 tackles. I know Matt Gillett has had games where he's missed 12 tackles (and he's a good defender)but that's because he's been performing a role and rushing halves. That's not Capewell. I guess if the coach thinks he can work on that then Capewell certainly offers more in attack than any 2nd rower we have outside of Matterson.
I haven't seen Steven Marsters play so I can't comment on him.

Just reading off what you typed

Signed until end of 2019 ....end of this season

I'm not talking about a June 30 signing ....talking for 2020

 

[Newtown]

@happy_tiger He would be a signing starting 2020 season if the club is fortunate to sign him.

 

[balmain boy]

@THE_POM Any ideas who the couple of players we'll sign before June 30 are?

Surely there's some decent props running around in NSW Cup stuck behind quality players in first grade that we could entice

Sorry that was what I was trying to communicate ....my bad

Good signing .....we need speed

With a bit of luck and hard work could be our Charnze Nichol Klokstad .......

Hearing that Gamble is going. Don't know when (I'm guessing before 30 June) or where.

@THE_POM Both would be good signings. Fingers crossed! Thanks for the update. Its been "Sahara desert" on this thread for a while now.

Junior Tatola might be worth bringing home? The few reports Bennett is in the UK chasing Luke Thompson.

@Yossarian
How long before the forum is bemoaning the loss of Tyson Gamble?
....and so it goes.

@Yossarian
Well if we don’t see his value than obviously another club does. Good luck to him if it’s true

 

[Masterton]

Haven’t heard much about this Jesse Arthars kid, anyone know much abou

He looks pretty good already, but I suspect he will fill out nicely in the next few years. Every time I've seen him play, looks a bit better than the last.

Would have liked to see him get another shot in the top grade before discarding him, if true.

 

[swag_tiger]

Would be very happy if we do gain Welch and Capewell for 2020.

 

[swag_tiger]

@The_Pom what state of Talks are we in with Welch and Capewell ( what part of the contract being negotiated)

Massive gamble letting him go ....

@happy_tiger gamble is going to be a big help with their lack of experience in their team
