Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Averillo , would he be
A good signing for us .?
Is it possible he comes before June 30 ?
Would he be in our first grade team over Herbert & Toa .?
May / Averillo or May / Macca centre pairing ?
Can he play wing and Fullback ?
How much coin do we think it would cost for him $ ?

Don’t mind it as a To’a replacement. Adds speed and backline versatility.

Agree he’s very fast and can cover positions. Love this signing if they get it done.

Averillo’s defence is rough but his speed would be very handy

He can cover 1-6, perfect depth signing

Averillo is like a less injury prone To'a. Absolutely fine NRL player and a fine fit, especially if you remove To'a from the 30.

Averillo is one of my favourite players in the NRL and extremely underrated

 

[weststigerman]

Very keen on Averillo. Brings some much needed speed.

Apparently we are offering him an opportunity to play 6 when Luai leaves and more money then the Dragons

 

[Tom Shines]

We are “close to signing “ him… seems the Journo allowing himself some wriggle room ..

Wonder if Latu might be leaving ? 🤔

Nice signing if true. Now need proven NRL backup hooker, centre and backrower.

Latu is a better six

That's just idiotic guess work from the "journos". He's a centre that can cover wing and fullback.

Always rated Averillo, would be a great signing. Lots of backline coverage too.

Any ideas ?

 

[swag_tiger]

Would he be a backup or will he be a starter for us?

Starter I would suggest … Maka to play wing … might mean they found a new home for Toa?

Highly doubt it man. Blood in Blood out

Averillo only turning 26 in August but played a 130 games … has plenty of zip 👍
