The Telegrap reporting there may not be a spot for Trindal at the Sharkies next year good bench player goal kicker and replacement for Doueihi until he recovers

I like Trindall but resigned with Sharks this year. He’s not going anywhere

Looks like Harry Grant wants to come home to Concord, very Tigers-esque performance from him tonight.

More forward passes than Adam Elliott.

Would also throw a little penny at Mark Nicholls.

Yeah surprised not signed yet unless retiring?

I’ve mentioned him as a suggestion a few months back and got shut down… anyway.

His a good guy just played over 100 games, seems as though his only got a regular opportunity since he went to Souths but hasn’t look back with increased time.
I read the interest with signing with Souths was that he is studying Sports Management at uni and was looking for a work experience opportunity and Souths offered him work in the off-season as well as the chance to play.
I’d say he still wants to play but will most likely sign for hardly anything to stay with Souths, seems to be well liked there.

How much we gotta pay to bring the Cheese across?

Can we throw in Nofa and Talau to get an early release?

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

Good Dudley Dotoi might be able to defend and can take Nofo's place

 

[Newtown]

Madge will get us there , it’s a work in progress , all this Madge bashing is rubbish just support your team and reap the benefits

And what are the benefits for you, aside from getting to post on here? I get a good laugh from supporting the team most weeks.

I thnk he meant future benefits.

I know this was probably somewhat a joke. But do people really think you can just throw two starting backline players at a swap for a hooker?

If hypothetically both players magically said yes to dropping their long term contracts and playing somewhere else. That would only be to get Smith out of his contract... We still need to throw 1m at him.

Then our already very weak in depth backline has just lost two players. Who plays centres? Who takes the other wing spot? Let alone when there is injuries. Cant recruit a marquee as we just spend 1m on smith. Would probably need another spare mill for two starters in those positions.

You go hard for Smith for 1mill sure... but you don't severely weaken the rest of the squad because of it

Longtime reader only a new poster so be kind

Some suggestions (absolutely understand some aren't realistic haha)

- sign peachey (great utility value)
- resign roberts on absolute min $$ (good for indigenous pathways)
- sign Adam Elliott if sacked
- offer the cheese 1 mill a season , if Melbourne want players in return send them liddle and nofo
- offer brooks to Canberra in return for Joseph tapine
- sign Curtis Scott on min $$ (he is a better defender than any back in our club)

yea that is a fair call ..but gee we need some centres, i reckon it would be worth the punt

anyone watch trent robinsons post match conference? Dear lord he rinses Henry Perenara

Trent Robinson is a very smart fellow, also has a great memory as you could see when he rattled off the matches with issues he was concerned about.

Problem is he's a hypocrite. Banging on last night about his players not being protected when he has a few of the biggest loose cannons in his own side (Radley, JWH) and forgetting the fact that Latrell was developed in the Roosters system.

It was as interesting to watch as it was about as one-eyed as you could get. I laughed when he suggested that nobody looks out for the Roosters, as if they didn't waltz to two premierships after signing the best two players in the game, then had the Jordan Rankin rule overturned so they could play their wunderkind, then got Boyd Cordner's salary nicely wiped off their cap despite the extensive number of head knocks endured whilst on the payroll of the Roosters (i.e. pre-existing before current contract).

Has done a lot of whinging this year, he needs a break.

He whinges about protecting players every time a roosters player gets collected, even when it is an obvious accident.

He whinges when any of his players get pulled up for an act of foul play or contact with the head.

I have a mate that is a roosters fan and he is suffering as well. They are not used to not being treated favourably by the NRL.

Don't Elliot and the Bulldog boys grab each other's tackle?
Is that your idea of good?
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

 

[Harvey]

At any rate it looks like yet another really great youth signing. Our scouts are plucking them from everywhere!

70% of them wont make 1st grade and 60% of those that do will be pinched by another club if they show any ability.

He might help by punching a few of our current players in the head

Agree I like him.
