I doubt Lachlan Fitzgibbon’s dad would let him leave Newcastle.

He's shown a lot of promise over the last couple of years. Newcastle always produce good hard forwards eg Dave Edwards.

I’m a fan. I thought his dad is on the board of Newcastle and that whole clan was Newcastle through and though.
Hopefully Brown slaps him and he leaves.

Dave Edwards? ?

One of the toughest second row forwards to play for Balmain. No one got past Edwards who was famous for his bootlace style tackling. He was a NSW detective. originally from around Cessnock,

We wont get Hess Fitzgibbon. We dont get those type of players.

Not with that attitude :mrgreen:

Fitzgibbon a small chance but Hess none at all. Never. Id be shocked!

He was on the radar at Souths a while ago but I think this is all just shenanigans to gouge as much as he can out of Newcastle. Can't see him leaving given his family ties unless we trumped Newcastle by a lot, which would not be a good idea…

Hess didn’t have the best season . I thought he would have killed it in 2018\. When he was on , he was hard to stop. But that didn’t happen all the time.
Cowboys on the whole were poor. I’m not sure why that was.

Yeah he was well down on his 2017 form for both the Cowboys and Queensland.

Thanks for that paws

I thought you were talking about the Edwards we had last year from newcastle

Hess will be one of those guys who sees out his career in QLD. Would love to have him here under a forwards oriented coach.

Hess was terrible last year.
Maybe he would benefit by playing under a coach like Maguire who likes a power game.

Dolf Lundgren hey? He’d be pretty handing. Try scoring machine.

ready does say that the price his management is asking for he wont be in Newcastle. think it was $500k and up. most likely agents talk. definitely would be a nice pickup for us.

After Klemmer and Jennings, outlaying that amount may not be possible.

Smart play Tigers Fitzgibbon is a young superstar in the making. Big money for Klemmer, Jennings and Val Holmes swoop in for Hess and Fitzgibbon.

Parra are shopping him. Newcastle the only club said to be keen. Negotiations going on re: how much Parra would chip in. If Parra can shift him they might yet offer Hayne a contract (that he might actually accept).

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

Fitzgibbon has come on. Was a loose cannon when he first came into grade.

 

[bp_tiger]

funny how all other clubs can seem to do deals , yet we never seem to get any done.
