Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Marty at the right price.

Walker, meh. If they chip in but i wouldn't offer top dollar for him

 

[TopTiger]

Marty may be tempted back given how the Tigers have turned things around on & off the field since he was last here!!

More cap trouble for Manly

The bad news keep coming for Manly - I’m hearing the Sea Eagles may need to let a leading player go before June 30 to be salary cap compliant.

Because of back-ended contracts and salary cap “irregularities” after they were caught cheating red-handed by the NRL, the Sea Eagles’ cap is a mess.

They are currently over the cap and need to shed around $500,000 before June 30 to get their books in order.

As a result, they are looking at offloading one of their representative stars. Dylan Walker and Marty Taupau have been mentioned but you'd have to think there's no way they would be let go.

It might be a player just on the next level who is shown the exit door.

But shedding a player on big money mid-season is no easy task - there aren’t many clubs with a spare $500,000 to $600,000 to spend - much as they would love to add a quality player to their line-ups.

Marty Tapau or Dylan Walker anyone? Would be nice to get those two here… Haha Manly and Bulldogs are screwed. Des Hasler must be so inept at roster management. Almost feel sorry for the clubs.... Almost haha

Both would value add to Wests at the right price. Have to beat the Manly wanka attitude outta them. Recent comments from both players are uncalled for and have a Manly ring to them.

 

[king_sirro]

Walker would be outstanding.

 

[tigerbenji]

Would take either in a Heart beat, for all Walkers misgivings he still is a class player.

Marty would be great to get back. I am thinking we should look at their backs.
Matthew Wright, 3 Dylan Walker, 4 Brian Kelly, 5 Akuila Uate,

Akuila for the right price is a decent defender. But max 2 year contract, should be performance based. If he goes lazy he is a real liability, but he might fit in here.

 

[AL The Tiger]

Dylan Walker can goalkick too

Wouldn't be too bad if he wasn't a douche on the field

 

[The_Patriot]

Not a fan of the guy and doubt he would suit our culture but a Marsters and Walker centre pairing would be something to see.

 

[yeti]

Yep - either or both. Be great pickups.
Milner could be handy - loose forward that can play hooker. Just what we need.
Seems to stick his tackles too.

 

[boonboon]

Personally id take Brian Kelly - left centre young speedy and cheaper then the other 2.

As for Milner i understand the lock/hooker off the bench

 

[Twal'sFirstTry]

Who's up for round 2 of Curtis Rona? Ali has linked him to us along with Adam Milner.

 

[Muffstar]

Walker would be outstanding.

I thought I read somewhere that Walker will return to Souths next year.

 

[swag_tiger]

As Ali stated we are in **serious** talks with Rona and Adam Milner could be the english hooker to rival Hodgson.

Akuila Uate - the guy is good for a million errors.

[Tiger_Steve]

Yeah yeah …...,show me an official announcement post and I’ll start to get excited

 

[hsvjones]

Where is Rona currently playing ?

 

[Guest]

Well Rona would be handy on one wing, but Tapau would add another dimension to our forward pack, particularly with his ability to offload.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Don’t get too excited about the possibility of Walker. He’s going back to the Bunnies.

 

[Chipofftheoldblock]

You would have to say yes to Rona considering all the tries we are letting in through wingers from kicks. Rona is a big body type of winger which we dont really have.
Adam Milner is just a workhorse type of player, actually a decent hooker and i think in a position we are lacking. I would happily swap Mcllwrick or Godinet for Milner.
