Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I was really disappointed with Cini. Very poor defensive reads. As a smokie, I wouldn't be surprised if Reece Hoffman really challenges Talau for a future Centre position. He looks good.

Hoffman to centre, he looks like he is ready. On Cini, he is a centre and is elusive but he is not a winger. I don't know why WTs has this perchance for attempting to turn centres into wingers. Cini needs to work hard on his defence because his future is centre, not wing.
 
What did Hoffman do?

Other than make an easy try look really difficult and make some pretty tame hit ups. Neither Cini or Hoffman will be pushing the Nofo/Jennings/Thompson wing battle.

For a first time NRL match he demonstrated that he was at that level. Scored a try and looked solid in defence. Obviously he played out of position because he is a centre but did well. I have doubts both our first string wingers could have got to the line.
 
Hoffman isn't even close to being ready for the NRL.
Talau showed why he needs a season playing for the Magpies. His poor decision making in defence makes him a target in every game.

If grant is rated higher than b smith......
Holy moly he must be good


I don’t think he is, but if Bellamy once considered moving b Smith to 2nd row or 6 and c Smith to 7 to get harry some game time, then ...

Explain why Hoffman isn't ready?

Listen to yourself. You are talking about a 17-18 year old kid. This is what I was talking about last night, everyone going too in depth about what they see in a trial that had only half a dozen first graders. Now we’re at the point we’re a discarding a kid on a development contract and talking about how he’s not ready. Of course he’s not ready, that’s why he’s on a development contract. He won’t see first grade till at least June. There’s no possibility of him usurping anyone come round one, so calm your farm.

Yes actually ..of course they all said they heard the refs call last tackle ...didn't see the hand gesture
 
David Fifita apparently isn’t sure if he’ll be at broncos after 2020 - most likely just trying to get more money out of the Broncos but we would be stupid not to throw all our money at him.

He’s going to be one of the games best players for a long long time.

Souths have to fit Arrow and an upgraded Mitchell in next year, plus re-sign/upgrade Cook.

Might be willing to lose Gagai, AJ and Ethan Lowe to accommodate... wasn't Murry keen to go the rooters too? Anything possible

No. But Johns will.

Johns isn’t eligible for first grade unless he gets an upgraded deal. At the moment he’s signed on as a reserve grader.

Release a few dropkicks and upgrade him.
