Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

What incentive would anyone who works for the club, with clout have to post anonymously on a forum, giving away so much sensitive information? I’m pretty there was a time where the club reached out to the mods cos whoever he was went too far with info he gave. Can’t remember the specifics, but it had something to do with Brooks. This was back around 2016.

I don’t know, but he was passing on information/news which is the currency of journalists. Maybe steering them to this WTF?
I’m not sure if he was “giving away so much sensitive information” It was stuff like potential contract signings/talks and Sheens thinks Doueihi would make a good 13 if he could muscle up and learn to tackle. 😜

Richo obviously keeping his offer for Tino very close to his chest …

It's hiding under one of his manboobs.

There was definitely one time he went too far for the club’s liking.

Keons manager has already been seen with or at the HQ's of the Eels and Dogs .. Manly and Dragons are also hoping to talk to his manager next. .. Here's hoping our recruiting staff atleast get a chance.

Dogs are also in the hunt for Tino .. do the Dogs have an open salary cap .. ?? they are alreay getting Leo Thompson from the Knights next season.

Keaons agent and the Dogs do not have a good relationship... Keaons manager is Tyran Smith who is also Jackson Topines manager and has been helping Topine throughout his court case.

He has no other clients with the Dogs and when AFB became available at the end of last season, there was no interest in the Dogs because of that relationship.

Maybe it has changed recently and they're on good terms now?

If I was getting pegged as a backrow/lock utility, I’d be changing positions asap.

An NRL ready Prop first please 🙏,

you know what pegged means right?

Salary Cap restraints is not good to hear, i keep hearing we have war chest, maybe not hey..i just hope we have enough for Taylan May to get a contract

Paying Sullivan, Bateman to play elsewhere. Staines/Naden were on too much for the amount of first grade they played. Hunt is in that crew too at 600k for the next 2 seasons. New recruits x 3 (Madden 350 + Geyer 150 + Smith 150 = 650k) Upgrade to Doueihi, upgrades to Terrel May coming...Taylan needs to be signed.

You can see where the money goes when you think about it.

Seen lots of people talking Krystian Mapapalangi up, what is the upside to him surely if he was that good he would have been picked in front of Staines or Naden a few weeks ago.
Is he pulling up trees in KOE or something?

Has always had plenty of ability especially in attack since his junior days & then was highly rated at the Knights making his NRL debut back in '22 before injury has disrupted his past couple of seasons. Since joining us on a T&T, he's definitely helped our NSW Cup team find form predominantly at 5/8 - some flashes of brilliance without tearing any game apart. Has recently been moved to right centre in NSW Cup, imo to see how he goes as a backup centre for us. Provides cover for all backline positions except halfback.

I think it's salary cap restraints per position. Richo will have an idea of how much of the cap he wants to spend on the spine, outside backs, middles etc. So I'd say he doesn't want to spend too much more on outside backs factoring in what we is likely to offer Taylan May.

thanks BWG i didnt think of that

Geez yea fair enough when you break it down like that..

Apparently the Dragons are gonna go really hard for Tino. I think Flanagan is desperate for an out and out marquee player.

yup, bit of pressure on him they haven’t landed a big fish.

Did you enjoy getting pegged as a backrower? I haven’t, but I’m pretty sure it’s not for me. 😎

I was never in the backrow so I can't speak to that.

Who pegged you

I was better at cricket. 🏏

How’s that, for playing with a straight bat.

And I threw in a pun.

Caught behind a few times huh?

No chance he goes to the Dragons.

He's either going to take the biggest offer (which will be the Bears) or hes going to go to a premiership contender. The dragons are probably the most unattractive club at the moment due to their aging roster and lack of star power.

If you got pegged while packing in the scrum in the lock position, would you get penalised for having too many in the scrum.
