Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Assuming bud is gone to souths I would consider dce 1 plus club option for 2
Alternatively see if bears interest in sexton and put forward a 1 yr option and then send him to Perth.
Other than that I don’t think there’s any regular starting halves available

This is how you reject an offer, Galvin take notes.

Yeah. I thought that was one of Galvin's strengths; taking notes.🤣

Some of he comments here about Richo are worthy of those right wing not job sites on the net.

the guy that just offered an Ageing Reynolds Almost 1mill more than the next guy,
To come play over the top of every other half currently at the club.

He's accountable as anyone else, Seen previous admins blown to bits for lesser decisions.

time will tell

lol …if that’s true, then it looks like the Broncos told Richo to stick to 2D chess and leave the 4D Chess for Gus…

By Broncs signing Reynolds? Thats actually the outcome he may have been angling for. They were delaying and lowballing for weeks. Now they will be forced to make a call.

Signing Reynolds would have been the definition of reactionary.

Manly shopping Aaron Schoupp.
I think he’d be worth a look for the rest of this season as a back up centre/back row option.
He has a fair bit of NRL experience when he was at the Bulldogs a few years back, he’s a strong ball runner who regularly makes his 150 plus metres per game and not afraid to do the hard hit ups out of his own end.

Anyone else feel Galvin didn’t look to happy playing second fiddle to Sexton today. I noticed a few times Galvin expecting the ball and it went to Sexton.

No not really, I thought he and Sexton combined pretty well tbh. Second game in with the comp leading team, you’d be happy to play second fiddle to the half who had taken them there, at least for a while.

$750 season for 2 years for one of the few true half backs and some think that is outlandish!
I wasnt keen on the Reynolds signing but that is hardly crazy money for a half in today's market.

Why does there need to be more to the story than Richo wanted to sign a guy he has known for more than 10 years and won a premiership with ?

In any event …it’s just speculation and I doubt we will know anymore than what has already been put out there

No no no a thousand times no! DCE is cooked.

The Sullivan contract situation should be very high up on the priorities list, if not at the top, as whether he is at WT or not affects other decisions.

Good call. I think he suits the modern backrower archetype now as utility value to cover at centre. I'm surprised Manly hasn't given him greater NRL opportunities and he's been around a few clubs now, makes you wonder but his numbers are certainly impressive.

Bud Sullivan money 😮

Gould and Ciraldo helped Bud Sullivan resurrect his career. Now he’s out to wreck their season

Phil Gould has had his fair share of secret meetings. This one resurrected the career of a playmaker who could come back to haunt Canterbury on Sunday.

I agree. Difference with Reynolds is the team culture factor & relationship with Richo & Benji.

I've dangled out there Jonah Pezet now a couple of times with no bites from the forum. I think he could be quite gettable if the mail is correct that Jahrome Hughes will extend.

He would be the most NRL ready of all the emerging halves who are not already NRL regulars.
I would take him in a heartbeat at the right price, I just don’t see us as an ideal destination club for him, but you never know.

Stats indicate Deine Mariner has gone back to play Qld Cup and proven his class averaging well above 150m gained and plenty of tackle breaks.
With Grant Anderson supposedly joining the Broncos next season, it clearly looks like Mariner is on the outter as long as Madge is in charge,
He’s clearly NRL quality and adds speed we are lacking.

Would love to have Pezet. Looked good in his limited first grade experience. Has certainly served his apprenticeship. Where does he fit though? He’ll want a clear path to first grade.

Don’t think he fits with us next season …

Do you expect Makiisini to play NRL next year ?
