Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Fish88]

Davy Moale been given permission by Souths to negotiate with rivals for next year. The cowboys and eels have expressed interest. Would we have any interest?

I have always rated him, bit of an injury run but is young and bends the line. Wouldn’t break the bank either. Would be a great buy.

Is this like Pheonix Godinet's mum breaking the news on Insta that her son was making his NSW Cup debut even though he was listed on the extended bench at the time? lol

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Fingers crossed he enjoys a crocodile roll.

But not as many as Royce Hunt lol

In regards to Moale I’m sure I read somewhere that he’s looking for a contract of around 500-550k per season ? Can’t remember where I saw it ?
Even if that is true, I still think he’s worth the risk and should fit in with our young group of forwards very nicely.
Out of curiosity, does anyone know what Fonua Pole’s contract value is ?
I’m assuming he’s being paid around 500k and I’d say Moale is just as good as him, potentially better.
I suppose we also have to be mindful that Sione Fainu will need an upgrade if we want to keep him long term and I’d assume Terrell May will also be wanting an upgrade.

This could be the branch that is about to snap with Richo waiting underneath with a net!

The first apple is falling.

I like the idea of Moale for our side if we go for him. Should earn a bench spot for us and provide a bit of impact. 70 games under his belt, so not a rookie. But young enough to keep developing his game and get better.

Wouldn't cost us heaps either. I would think Richo will at least have a conversation here.

Ooh trying to take the moral high ground. That’s a new one for you.

Gather around everybody. Look - Tucker is now the victim!

Why have you got an issue with a reporter calling it how it is? That’s you to a T.

I actually think it’s eating you up inside that you haven’t sided with him. And you’re getting more pissed off as you read this.

Mmmmm……. It really is isn’t it? Mmmmmm……

lol I barely ever talk to you as your views are amongst the most insignificant on here to me.
You are light amusement with sparse to no knowledge of the game.
A clown who talks in the 3rd person.
I’m going to block you now as you seem a very petty and pathetic weirdo.
Arriba you spaz 🤣🤣🤣👍🏼👍🏼

Was it only last week when you worried that there are no middles available ?

Moale would be better than what we have off the bench atm. Solid first grader for his age if not a touch underwhelming since his debut season. Has a bit of a Tom Mikaele vibe about him.

 

[rugbygoated]

Not a bad post, but some paragraphs would help readability...I'm not your mum. Just a wise friend. Love your passion.

Haha yes it is hard to read. If this was being marked by a professor or teacher I'd be much better

 

[happy_tiger]

It worries me Bennett and Souths who are really struggling to find quality middles aren't interested in Moale

That was my goal so I don’t have to see your shit ill thought out opinionated posts you farken idiot which you deem are thought provoking. Such a cock.
I can guarantee you are the most hated person on here.

Isn’t there a link from a few pages back that he turned down an extension offer?

they are, they offered him a 2 year deal that he rejected

There’s not, that’s why a n up and comer such as this fella is probably as good as we could get in regards to a middle forward for 2026.
Lack of supply and demand means he will highly likely cost more than what he is probably worth at this stage and that’s the tricky part, do you pay what appears to be an over inflated price for an up and comer ?
There is no perfect answer, but adding one more good quality middle would at least provide genuine competition for positions and would hopefully bring out the best in some of our current forwards who have been inconsistent.

He is no dog shot merchant

Hes not interested in them....they offered two year extension

Sack thy coach win thy next game. But actually when I was a stat and mental nut I read a paper on how this affects the mind set and that it quite often is the second game they win.
I have been backing teams that sack their coach for a while now, it’s a 50/50 thing.
But statistically the safest bet in rugby league is to back against the Tigers when they are favourites.

My pop was always adamant that the tigers would never win when they scored first... Any way of checking that statistic?

 

[teddy23]

Have a feeling we’re eyeing a big name, we have the cap space and have an obvious need for a middle.

Seems very quiet, a little too quiet…

I reckon Richo and Benji are working in the shadows for a big name to come with KPP next year or potentially in 2027.

Question is who….

 

[weststigerman]

The Taylan and Naden comparison, along with the respective vitriol and/or praise dished out to them is notable, particularly when you add May giving up on the play when they scored after he lost the ball in the tackle.

He may not have been able to stop it, though dropping his head certainly did not help, yet most simply forgive him whilst attacking the other.

This.

Everyone loves the new guy and hate the old guys at the club around here.

Taylan has been a great acquisition, but that was a very bad moment and he didn’t even turn and chase after the mistake. Now imagine if that was To’a or Doueihi.
