Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I don’t think we will get another new signing until the NRL clarifies roster numbers. If it’s only 28 or the full 30 and by when.
 
Laurie staying with the Panthers for 2021 isn’t the end of the world.Another year in a strong team.Also Edwards is injury prone.
Matt Burton is going to be expected to work miracles if he is at the dogs next season.

Friend who goes for bulldogs reckons burton to bulldogs in 2021 is a done deal. If true, wonder what that means for Laurie??

It means Laurie will stay there but I hope it's the other way around.

I looked at the Penrith lower grade team from a year or so back and Luai, Burton, Crichton, Staines, Too, Naden comprised the backline. No wonder Allan Fitzgibbon was overlooked.

He needs to get rid of that ridicululous flop when he scores. I've always been suspect of those types. Haven't seen him tackle yet. Admit he does look to have a lot of talent.

Agreed, the flop looks ridiculous but is also risky. You can pop a shoulder with dives like that.

My Signing Hopefuls:

1. The Cheese, 3 year deal for 600k a year. But I doubt Storm would release with out a player swap. Put the Dogs front runners who might swap Napa

2. Widdop, I know his age and injuries. Can cover Fullback and 5/8. I would play him at Fullback, doesn’t really have to defend which is good for his shoulders. Great kicking game and can kick goals. Also if Douhei fails at 5/8(I hope he doesn’t) we have options. Mbye back to 1 and Widdop 6. Only offer a 1 year deal for 300k

3. Scott Sorensen, depth back rower who could nearly get a starting position depending on how Garner goes. 2 year deal for 200k

You think the Storm would want Napa? lol They want a quality replacement. Same thing rules us out, we don't have anyone they'd want.

Heard on SEN that STORM want the big second rower back( can't think of his name) that signed for the TITANS if the CHEESE is going to the TITANS

Reading the penwiff forums they really don’t seem to rate Fitzgibbon. Maybe sour grapes, but then again they were pretty cut up about losing blore when we got him

Most just say has speed and that’s about it

Jeez that would be a big call for the Titans

For all the hype about Fifita I think Tino might be the better signing, just comes down to if Titans really need a quality #9 as their main priority

Their coach just come from super league, if they are desperate for a hooker I'm sure he can get one from there

Doesn't make sense to get rid of one of your best player for another good player

Titans signed him heaps early in the season when he was barely rated. Melbourne probably gutted in the end losing him seeing him carve up towards the back end lol

Friend who goes for bulldogs reckons burton to bulldogs in 2021 is a done deal. If true, wonder what that means for Laurie??

It means Laurie will stay there but I hope it's the other way around.

I looked at the Penrith lower grade team from a year or so back and Luai, Burton, Crichton, Staines, Too, Naden comprised the backline. No wonder Allan Fitzgibbon was overlooked.

Reading the penwiff forums they really don’t seem to rate Fitzgibbon. Maybe sour grapes, but then again they were pretty cut up about losing blore when we got him

Most just say has speed and that’s about it

Some continue to write speed is all JAC has but it is a great weapon to have in the arsenal. With Tahu and other specialist coaches working with him he may surprise a few. I hope he does as that pace provides a new dimension to the attack and defence.

Speed was all JAC had when he left the WT'S the rest of his game has developed remarkably over the past few years hopefully Fitzgibbon will be brought along he's only young so who knows speed is a God given talent the rest can be coached he's made it this far so he must have shown something.
