About Robbie Rochow, was that rumour about him coming to WT? Or did WT sign him?

Just a rumour at this stage.

I read that Lachlan Fitzgibbon has been offered only a one year extension. Seems to be quite a handy forward at six ft 3.

His father is CEO of the knights sponsor, he will be re-signed

The talk of Robbie's poor service has popped up 3 times in the last 12 months. It was a talking point around Origin time last year, it was the reason JT dropped him, and now its surfacing that its an issue at Souths. All a coincidence?

Obsessed
 
Smoking gun said a while back we are lite on hookers. With liddle out and mcwillrick not really being able to play 80 minutes, I wonder if we need a back up hooker(and no I don't want Robbie back). Or is someone coming up the reserves or under 20s that is standing out?

That kid in the panthers under 20's side is a gun.

Doesnt Jayden brailsy have a younger brother in under 20's who is also very talented?

Jeremy Marshall King should get a go
 
Ironic that hooker is the position everyone thought we'd struggle the most in this year, yet its been the most reliable and has given us one of our most consistent players.
 
The fullback and five-eighth from the Panthers last week, I wouldn't mind having a crack at them. I don't imagine they would get much game time at Penrith, but they would have a better chance of making our new team.

Tyrone May and Dylan Edwards, I wouldn't say no on cheap contracts

You must have only seen Edwards play for the first time on the weekend. He wouldn't come cheap. Seems we had a chance to pick him up earlier in the year. We were linked to him. For whatever reason we didn't pursue him.

The fullback position is for Dylan Edwards til he decides otherwise. He's an absolute gun and Panthers know it.

We inquired but Panthers told us he was in their plans. Hence why Moylan was moved to the halves this season.

On the other hand, Tyrone May is a solid player. Rated by Cleary, not sure if he is what we need though. We need some attacking spark.

I was surprised when Adam Reynolds publicly endorsed RF joining Souths .
It's sometimes hard to see player reactions on tv but anybody who was at origin 1 last year would've seen Reynolds throw his arms in the air every time RF ran from dummy half or kicked aimlessly .

For a lot of the damage he caused, Taylor was one of the first to see that Farah was a spent force. Then NSW selectors saw it. Now Souths are seeing it.

I think Robbie is better than Peats now. I also think he is going okay at Souths. The problem is that he isn't a high quality footy player anymore and you can't pay someone like that top dollar like we did.

Who?
I think hooker is our weakest position behind halfback.
 
Sorry to interrupt the Farah talk, Tigers have made enquiries to Bulldogs about Brett Morris.

Sorry about the misleading post a week or so back about the 2 signings thought they were 1 FG one depth turns out was both depth.

Yes, Liddle's injury has exposed our lack of depth.

Mitch Rein being shopped around, but would think he wants big dollars and not happy with a backup role
Daniel Peck is a NSW U20s hooker with us, but from what I have seen his defence is terrible and he is too small for the NRL
