Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

And who exactly are we swapping with for a currently uncontracted player?
Staines. His last year. Since we haven't got Olam's money yet or might never get it maybe Staines is being offloaded for bit of coin. Who knows.

Love that it's all in house. Better than last hierarchy who had more leaks than a sieve.
 
I get this weird feeling that DCE means what he says.

He may just want a challenge and leave Manly.
He may want another ring on his finger....

Just have this feeling that he wants to head back to QLD. Fins or Titans.
I have a feeling the contract with the most dollar signs will get him.

I know Staines, it just sounded like you meant swap with another club, except Taylan doesn’t play for another club.
Klemmer?

Him leaving makes it 29 I thought?

Otherwise Olam's retirement, maybe? (damn shame, he would have been a gun if fit).
I think you misunderstood. It was about swapping Staines for Taylan. Also we have 28, I’m pretty sure. Had 29 at Nov1, released Bateman, added Sione, released Klemmer. We wouldn’t have needed to release Klemmer to sign, nor do we necessarily need to release (or retire) anyone else.
 
The Mole reporting that Finau Latu (gun junior who plays lock) from Dragons being chased by multiple nrl clubs and can sign for 2026 after round 6 this year. I want to live in a world where we have a Latu Fainu and Finau Latu in our squad. Haha
Finau can play. supreme talent. that said, I assume we’ll opt for someone a bit older to ensure we don’t block Taai or Havea’s path.

The Dragons/Steelers forward stocks in juniors are incredible. Would argue that they have some of the best coming through the grades in Halangahu, Pasifiki Tonga, Finau.

Can't keep them all, so I wouldn't be surprised to see Finau move on. But yeah, not sure if he would end up with us as Havea in particular seems to be earmarked for big things. Still, I wouldn't mind him to come in as Matamua's replacement in 2026.
 
Hahaha right on the money. Ive never understood the hype surrounding that city, lived there a few years and couldnt wait to get out.. woeful joint. Constantly being asked dont you love it only made it more amusing. I mean if the crackheads, day release folks, wife beaters and car thieves wont sway you its gotta be a dingy, overpriced market selling three kinds of fetta cheese or the cafes slinging burnt coffee.
Where are you referring to?

I really don’t give a crap what happens to him , the bloke backfliped last time he wanted to leave , just another money grabbing player
 
Hilarious if Brooks comes out and says it his team now. Gold!

Loving watching Manly panicking.
Many drop down the ladder now , DCE I feel has a reel sour spot for Manly due to his no offer originally , I also think he has a club locked in and will play his normal games , but it’s the other players if they loose need a scape goat DCE will be it , Brooks will suffer next year when he is the driver of a rudderless team
