Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I see the Raiders are making a play for Panthers back-up fullback Caleb Aekins .. he can play fullback, centre, or 5/8 .. !! He seems to have done great job standing in for Dylan Edwards when out .. so why aren't we looking at this kid .. ??

Both Plodders.

In other news

Dogs have signed Jack Hethrington on a two year deal

damn thought we had him

Oh well we’ve got plenty of props.

yeah but Hetherington would've been great

Josh Reynolds found new love hence why no UK.

Unlucky

How come there both not at our club, we are the home of plodders

Iam beginning to wonder if we are really trying to sign anyone , yes we got Tamou , but gee we miss out on so many other good talents to teams that finish behind us .

Love- good on him.

Club- god, cant we just punt him? Everyone else seems to do this with little problem. Yes I know contracts, a new club should be found, agreement reached etc but jeez, he and Packer have made things difficult to reach accommodation.

apparently Pearce may be back at roosters, rumour going around that rorters want him


then again there also was another rumour speaking of a Parra/ knights swap of Moses and Pearce

 

[Goldust]

For me,Pearce is one of the most average footballers going round.
Always has been

For me, if he had been here from the start, we make the finals more times than we have. He has had periods of being top 2 or 3 halves in the comp.

Yeah but we’ve got some nice young props coming through and with the amount we have + Packer being on big money not sure if we would want to spend more in that area

If we are still lacking a good prop in 2022 we have the money to sign a good one at least but I think our pack looks solid as long as the boys keep developing and stay injury free

I’ve never seen it.decent defence,that’s about it.
He has gotten better with age but still pretty average for someone who played with the rosters for ten years and orgin never really took off.

I posted this a few days ago and a few people had a crack at me for it.

I still think Jr Jr would be mad to leave the Knights.
And Knights would be mad to want Tanky McStank.

But it might eventuate, who knows. (And I don't think I had a crack you mate, I come here looking for rumours like that, I thank you, I lap it up mate!)

So we sign up these players that the other clubs are signing and then have no cap space if JAC and Harry become available!!!

correction the club doesnt sign players that the forum wants hence its the clubs fault 🙂

Good to see in the paper that Josh Reynolds has made a few more million on investment properties and has apparently found a new love. Thus no need at all to take up UK SL offers..............

Just our luck.

All jokes aside, but him leaving would have changed our entire club and allowed two really good signings. He is entitled to his money, but now that the whole "great clubman" myth has been exposed it is going to be fairly galling watching him begrudgingly sit on the sidelines for another 12 months collecting his 700-800 grand.

He has been an absolute disastrous signing. By FAR our worst as he is going to ride out the whole four years...at least Blair jumped ship.

Yep. It is rare that a disastrous signing rides out a long term deal..

Blair left.

Even Bryce Cratwright bailed...!!!

But not our Josh, he is going to ride it out and essentially live off this deal forever with all his properties...which he is perfectly entitled to do.

But wow, it has been a disaster. Absolute disaster.

If he had of taken the UK deals it would have allowed us to go into 2021 with TWO more decent players of need.

Have we ever signed a player from the Dogs that has turned out to be a great signing?
