Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[CCTW]

There is a reason he does not have a deal moving forward - he cannot defend.

Not sure where you got your info from but never heard his name came up from inside the club.

anyone on the radar for this year?

Nothing we have not already heard.

Doubtful CHN will get clearance this year but he will be back 2021. Very likely he will be here.

The JAC situation is very interesting and could really go to Souths, Dogs or Tigers. Reality around JAC is that Souths are his preferred destination but would be happy to come back to the Tigers or go to the dogs. Dogs offer is the biggest, Souths are his preferred and Tigers have the most preferable offer to Melbourne (not sure exactly what it is though). So it could go any of three ways... Dragons are interested but there is on interest on JACs end.

That’s good news re CHN. Cheers for the update.

Ps any truth to the Chee Kam rumours ?

He denied it on Twitter, wether you choose to believe it may be another story.

I would be over the moon if we sign chn hopefully it happens but I cannot see the nrl approving it it would be to unfair to the bulldogs

I think the Bulldogs decided off their own bat to sack CHN. So if he goes to another club the Dogs can't really complain IMO. (He would of been deregistered by the NRL anyway so the Dogs probably felt their only option was to get in first).

preferable offer for JAC from us got anything to do with Momirovski potentially staying in Melbourne permanently?

I guess that would be an option but I did read where Bellamy really respects Madge and seems happy to do a deal with Madge ahead of just releasing a player to anyone so just wait and see

If we were able to strike a deal with JAC through the storm though surely we would try and get a longer deal than he has with the storm now rather than have him for a year to help him get back to Sydney than see him run off to the wabbits

I really don't know if I want him. Johnston is still very quick and has no defensive issues, and will almost certainly cost us $300k less. also comes with zero baggage and has a great relationship with Madge. I know who I'd rather.

I'd be happy with AJ too

At least he knows he is not wanted at wabbits and would come with a point to prove

Wants to play fullback though or did in the past anyway

If he is happy to play wing without whinging than sign him up s he is a great winger just don't come here and cry you want to be fullback

There may be court action against the Bulldogs for unfair dismissal post appeal. It’s a grey area code of conduct I think CHN hooked up with a girl outside of the school and not from the school. I may be wrong but you can’t be sacked for banging a 17 year old. NRL was run by Greenberg at the time the chances they can legally uphold suspension is not strong.

Brydens May be strong legal representation and the club would have a very good idea of the likely legal outcome.

So, Bryden's currently sponsor us, Newcastle and Souths. Not Bulldogs. Good.

He dogged us once already. Let him slink off to Souths. Questionable character. Would be more than happy with Alex Johnston. And apart from AJ there is not much on offer. Would be making an enquiry to him a priority.

From ‘The Forgotten Man NRL Rumours’

Breaking news!

The Josh Addo-Carr situation seems to be a 3 team race for his signature - Rabbits, Bulldogs and Tigers

The Wests Tigers are favourites to sign Corey Harawira-Naera if the NRL clear him to play, the Dragons, Raiders and Warriors are also monitoring the situation!

Toby Rudolf has backflipped on his deal with the Warriors and seems set to remain in Cronulla!

Michael Chee Kam seems set to join the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs starting from next year on a 2 year deal!

I'm not even concerning myself with JAC. As if he's not going to Souths. We'd be used as a bargaining tool to up his $$.

And that's fine, up Souths asking price, less money to spend on others.

They just cheat anyway. Mitchell, we offered him over a million, Souths got him for $600k.

With an upgrade this year that is forcing Johnston out.

That will most likely also get them JAC.

 

[bathursttiger1]

We have some pretty good young forwards coming through. Twal, Mikele, Lilua x 2 as I think that BJ, given a full offseason under his belt, would make a great second row/ lock. Garner, Musgrave, McIntire, Seyfarth, Aloiai, the young boy from Parramatta . If we can get CHN from the dogs we have a very impressive engine room.

Some speedy backs would be good including a very very good goalkicker. Thoughts?

BJ to the back row - Joke of the century.

Why do some people on the Forum want to move our centres to the forwards?

I think BJ to stay in the centres also, however if we are talking about previously, I still believe Marsters wouldve been a better backrower than centre for us (not that it matters now).

I thought that Marsters was brilliant for us in the center in round 6 this year.

 

[swag_tiger]

I think JAC just seems arrogant now.

i'm not suggesting you move BJ to the forwards but when you think about it backrowers these days are no different to inside centers in the old setup. the only difference is they don't move according to the play the ball. We are moving to a more NFL setup where centres and backrowers don't exist - you just have 2 x L and R wide receivers and a winger outside each. The next evolution may be that your 13 and 6 play either side of the ruck with the 7 as the major playmaker. I just came up with this after a few drinks - but who knows.

Now linked to Elliot not that keen.

Thats true - but i don't see Johnston as a poor oick up if available.
