Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Harvey]

We need a backup fullback and a centre more than anything. Talau could miss a lot of games and Doueihi is our only other option at fullback besides Laurie.

Find a young fullback in reserves somewhere who can cover the wing too if necessary.

THats actually a pretty impressive reel for a change. Hate to say it but runs like Teddy.

Dont see it

Something about the way he lowers his body height as he hits top gear.

Think Ted had more speed at his age.

Don't know about that - Dillon can motor - he's on par with Papenhuyzen for speed.

You reckon?

Absolutely, aside from Jordan Hill who spent most of the season injured, Dillon is the quickest player in the the WT Flegg team.

That Dillon highlights package looks like a management company trying to shop him around

Logan dillon?

Tex hoy maybe?

Dillon is Papz 2.0
Should be treated and developed as such.

Tex Hoy isn't a first grader IMO.
He's not an ideal backup.

Hoy is dreadful under the high ball and his only real positive attribute is he's illusive with the ball. Hoy is notorious for colliding with his own team-mates as well.

What about Albert Hopoate as backup until Dillon is still developing.

Sione Hopoate is good too.

Going off his highlights I see a bit of Reese Walsh style in him.

I almost think he's a Tedesco/Papenhuyzen hybrid. he looks a very very good prospect. he has the strength, pace and evasion required to return the ball and make things happen off attacking shapes, but I was just as excited by his long balls, even though they need some work. he has all the tools, just needs some refining. wouldn't surprise me if he moves Laurie to 6 or 14 in the next few years.

I see him as our long term fullback and he reminds me more of Papenhuyzen with how he moves - absolutely electric off the mark and not afraid to play through the middle. Covers the 100m in about 11 seconds which is on par with Pap. Jordan Hill is a little quicker and hopefully Hartigan can convince him to stay.

What’s the current status with Hill? Was he signed , signing with Cutters or in talks with them? Is it due to the uncertainty around whether the comp will start up again next year?

Don't forget the 'other' Hill - Kade (halfback) no slouch either. Both Hills were tryscoring machines and scored 4 tries between them in the first game of the season. See highlights from 0.15s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGDNQp7HMUg showing him backing up which he did consistently to have 8 tries when the season was halted.

He is eligible for Jersey Flegg again in 2022 but we need to look at bringing he and others into KOE more - very few got the opportunity consistently, if at all, with the shortened season and Magpies were going well - missed opportunity but the circumstances were against them.

Quick, someone drive Brooks to Canberra!

If you want to believe the media. Which everyone seems to when it comes to Brooks, the club tried to initiate a trade with him and Mbye going down there and us getting Wighton, and the Raiders laughed at us. So that won’t be happening.

 

[tigerman 0]

Holy hell that highlights package is amazing.
He looks like a competitor.
Not big but no fear.
Dummy half darts, hitups one off the ruck from his own end.
Footwork, passing game. Very exciting.
I know he is playing against kids but he looks every inch a future star. Very Paps like.
What’s his status?

I think that rumour was started by Hoops and was completely off the mark. could be wrong but I'm fairly sure both clubs denied it. pretty sure we were in for Tapine.

Oh ok. Thought he was local to Sydney went to Holy Cross at Ryde.

My comparison was between Dillon and Walsh. Both pocket rockets with good power and a good long ball. Probably that’s where the comparisons end though.
