Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I would chase him for a 31/2 year deal , come now get over injury while you blend in at Tigers

They will likely play finals this year … I doubt they would be letting him go mid season

Guessing we did not go for him.

I am a little surprised that the Dragons can sign who they have been signing.
That said:
Drinkwater is a defensive liability.
Metcalfe is a decent half, but not a gun half. Still would rather drop Metcalfe into our side then Avelero

Watson is a good utility. I guess he is at the backend of his career. Wouldn't have done badly here but not a huge loss either.

Looks like a change in the Dragons recruitment strategy (maybe out of necessity). No more 1M offers to very good players, more going for middle.

Watson for 1 year would do nothing for us

Dragons are desperate to get out of this rut and any decent experienced player on the market they’ll be going for

Reminds me of us not long ago … great times 😅

The Dragons are a stronger team than many realise. They have a top 8 pack. It’s their spine that’s kept them where they are. With a new look spine next year, and Koalamatangi, they are top 8 contenders.

The Couchman twins in particular are impressive, I don’t think they’ll be at the bottom for much longer. They’ll most likely get the spoon this year but I see them being a decent side for years to come

Anyone confident we will beat them twice this year ?

I think they've probably screwed their salary cap and teams are going to pick the eyes out of their young talent in the next few years.

Not if they play like they did against the donkeys. Let’s hope they play like they did on Anzac Day

Averillo will be a good get, I couldn't believe the Dogs let him go to the Dolphins. Him and JAC were the only players in that team with a bit of toe.

He's the best available in a position we're weak in and desperately need a player to fill a position in, in 2027

Would be a smart signing 🤩

Better version of Staines for us.

Fills wing, centre and fullback.

Need to jag a hooker and backrower now.

Hamish Stewart at lock is also impressive.

 

[Tiger Tarl]

Apparently, the Averillo deal is done but they're trying to get him for the rest of this year...

 

[pawsandclaws1]

There's no list -

Either that or they are just going through the cooling off period …I would find it unlikely the Lolphins will let him go mid season…happy to wrong
