Reports out today that benjis manager is looking around to see if any other clubs want him for the rest of the season. Apparently they’ve made the club aware but it would be up to the club whether to release him or not.

Thanks for sharing. Seems a load of nonsense.

You'd hope the club keeps him around because I think he still offers more than Madden and Walters plus would be an amazing mentor to have around. And... we've extended his career when no one else wanted to. As it is I don't fully understand why we've let CT go to the Titans since we don't have much depth in the backs.

Centre and wing look thin.

I know he's not as quick as he used to be, but I'd have Lawrence back up at centre if Mybe or Leilua go down. Chee Kam is not a centre.

I agree about Lawrence. I don't really know who else we have. Dylan Smith and Kane Bradley are in the 30 too.

I think Harry is a far far better hooker than Brandon but I think Brandon would still be a great pickup for us

the bulldog is a beast

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

B Smith will just be a small forward bit like Nathan Brown. If C Smith retire's Grant goes back if not we're a shot to keep him. Might be able to offer the storm Simpkin or Liddle.

Here is a suggestion
Adam Elliot

[Spud_Murphy]

Johnston to us
JAC to Souths
would love Cotrick but has Roosters all over him
David Fifita to stay at Broncos
We may make a sneaky play for Cordner

Cordner?? No way, Rooster til he dies!

 

[clontarfkid]

Just got this from a mate. Not sure how reliable his source is...

Rumour Mill: There is a story brewing at one club with the chairman doing his best to stop a yarn that he has been the moneyman behind George Pell’s numerous appeals. The Roosters continue to chase stars with both David Fifita and Nick Cotric expected to sign with the Chooks in 2021. Josh Addo-Carr will return to Sydney with the Wests Tigers and Canterbury the favourites to secure his signature.

lol some great stories in there.

(This is all opinon, no slander here)

My guess would be Roosters with the connection to George Pell, Roosters yes will get Cotric (been thinking that for years) but not Fifita, he might stay at the Donkeys or go to Titans for massive money, but he'll stay in Qld.
JAC to Souths, and they let Johnston go.

Was it Johnstone who made a disparaging remark about WTs when the idea of joining us was circulated pre Dohi...?

If Cam Smith retires Harry goes straight back and the Storm will offload Brandon Smith. They won’t keep a big money hooker of they have Grant on the cheap. If Smith plays on Harry Grant will stay at the Tigers. We will have cash to spend and Madge is the best coach outside of Bellamy.

I think Brandon Smith offers too much to the Storm for them to let him go, even when Grant returns. Smith is not just a hooker, he goes good in the back row and is a very motivating player also.

He’s a gun but it’s like having Tedesco and RTS in the same side. You could play one on the wing but money better spent elsewhere to make the team stronger. I don’t think there’s any chance of Grant and Smith playing in the same side. One will be disillusioned and Bellamy May be only around 1 more year to manage it.

Lawrence hasnt been a centre for years,why do you think JT moved him to the forwards?It was the only thing he got right while he was coach imo

Have fun with Chee Kam

I think you are confusing me with someone else because i dont rate MCK as a centre he has the same lateral issues as Lawrence.I believe he is a bench forward at best

Well we don't have any other centres or wingers apart from Jennings.

If 2 out of Nofa, Talau, Mbye or Leilua get injured, what is the backline solution?

Reece Hoffman would be next in line

He is, but due to COVID they’re allowed to play all season if need be.

You give a player from the reggies a go depending on who is injured.Imo both MCK and Lawrence would be poor choices for the backline.

I really don’t believe what I just herd Corey Parker say on NRL tonight and I quote “Brisbane are going through a rebuilding phase at the moment “ WTF Corey !

Rebuilding phase is what happens after Issac Moses infects your club.
That's what we've been doing. Good to see it happen to someone else.

There’s a report from the telegraph saying Bunnies will be letting Johnston go after this season. There’ll be plenty of clubs after him and we could be one.
