Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[WswWt]

What has happened to Salesi Funaki? Looks to have gotten a bit lost in the Broncos system. Left here to get a start in first grade didn't he?

 

[VanillaThunder]

I'd take Rona in a heartbeat, though it would ideally be instead of Fonua not Hopoate. A backline of Lolohea, Nofo, Suli, Hopoate and Rona would be great. Lolohea, Nofo, Suli, Fonua and Rona not so much, but I guess it's an improvement.

I agree with ya there, but Ivan stated he's spoken to hoppa and he's staying at the dogs.
But I wouldn't knock back Rona or Fonua because we need depth which is what we severely lack.

Rona would be perfect. Big, strong, fast, can cover wing and centre. Doesn't he kick too?

Well he didn't kick a single goal over three seasons from 2014 through 2016 so if he does he's hardly a front liner. He's a very good winger and not a bad centre though so that's good enough for our needs.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Rona is a great finisher like Alex Johnston, but is probably a better all round player.

 

[Yossarian]

Add it to the half-arsed rumours thread!

Is it official or unofficial?

Officially unofficial

 

[WT2K]

Ivan in the Q&A said Hopoate wants to stay at the bulldogs.
Pascoe said Tim Grant has an option in his favour.

I would not be surprised if we see Rona in Tigers colour next year.

1\. Could be good friends with J REY
2\. We would most probably be out in the market looking for a winger
3\. Apparently he wants out of the Union and coming back into league
4\. Dogs SURELY won't have enough space for him in the cap

Great finisher, ball runner and knows how to find the line :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

That's a pretty flimsy case, you could something similar about pretty much any player in the game. Example:

I wouldn't be surprised to see James Roberts in Tigers colours next year.

1\. He played under Ivan at the Panthers.
2\. We would most probably be out in the market for a center.
3\. Apparently he hasn't signed a contract with Brisbane yet.
4\. Broncs SURELY won't have enough cap space for him in the cap.

Yes please.

Would rather Rona than Johnston. Think had a good combo with j Reynolds too.

You are certainly passionate about jimmy the jet

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Watching the Q&A, I wouldn't be surprised if they have another couple signings in the bag that they are waiting to announce. I'm guessing Pascoe didn't slip in a reference about a Roosters goal kicker for no reason. If that was a subtle hint then I'm sure everyone will assume Michael Gordon, but fwiw, Lattrel Mitchell is a goal kicker too.

If you had even half an opportunity to get the fastest man in league in your team, would you not be 'passionate'?

I thought he was referencing Ivan because he played for the chooks. But why chooks instead of warriors in sea eagles?

We had the fastest man in league last year. He went to the Storm.

Are you trying to make me depressed?

Look to the future, forget about the past.

You know we don't like pace at this club. Even now, those calling for Hopoate still subscribe to the policy that pace is not good.
