Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I've been burnt more than once believing BMM had finally met his potential.

Very similar situation with players like Simona , Brooks ,Daine Laurie ,Groat etc

Eventually you need to weigh up when the potential turns into solid performances week in week out

I'm hoping Matt Groat has turned the corner and has a huge 2018 in Q Cup!

He helped lead the Capras to the spoon in 2017

Viliame Kikau from penrith. Off contract 2019\. Killing it on the left edge for fiji. Big boy. Discuss.

We should get him just for this… https://wwos.nine.com.au/2017/03/12/18/00/tedesco-gets-buried-by-solid-tackle-at-cambelltown-stadium

Knights reportedly 2.4mil under the cap and need to spend at least 1.9mil more before they are salary cap compliant for next year.

They offered Matt Lodge 500k a year for 3 years but he knock it back and signed with the Broncos for 1 year on 85k apparently.

If it was any team other then Broncos or rorters I would say 'no way'.

I suppose it doesnt matter what Brisbane paid him this year as the NRL wouldnt register his contract?!

He wants to leave to play fullback. I'd take him and let him and tui fight for it

Lodge was taken to civil court by his victims in America, and I thought he owed them money. If that Knights offer was genuine, you can bet that he would say no to that and then take the money from the Broncos under the table, so he could still cry poor on his debtors.

If true, sounds real rehabilitated to me.

Lolo Holmes

At fullback, Yes.
At wing No.
I'm not sure if Holmes would want to come here to play wing. Hopefully he does. If we give him slightly more $ than the Sharks to make him feel loved.
