Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I'd like DWZ to play at our club. He's good in the air, hits the ball up hard and has great pace which is something out backs lack. National captain and always better than solid back, who can play across all the backline. Only upside there in my opinion.

Out of that list of players looking to Super League Corey Jensen from the Cows is a stand out. Clear best player out of that group and would be good under a coach like Maguire

Raft of NRL players offered to Super League clubs
Today’s Total Rugby League Article
Daniel Alvaro is among the NRL players currently being offered to clubs ahead of 2020.

NRL agents have started to shop their overseas players to clubs in the Northern Hemisphere with a view to making the move from down under.

25-year-old prop Alvaro has played regularly for Parramatta this season and has already made 74 NRL appearances. An Italy international, he would be a sound pick up for several Super League clubs.

But he isn’t the only talent available, with the likes of Cronulla centre Aaron Gray, South Sydney back-rower Kyle Turner and St George Illawarra prop Jeremy Latimore also on the market.

Others offered to clubs include Kurt Capewell, Cronulla’s 25-year-old utility, North Queensland forward Corey Jensen, Parramatta forward Ray Stone and Gold Coast youngster Max King.

It remains to be seen which clubs will take make a move for the overseas stars, with business likely to pick up in the week leading up to the Magic Weekend. Many of the overseas player managers come to the UK every year for the event on a scouting and networking mission.

Cronulla Sharks’ Premiership-winning winger Sosaia Feki has also been offered around clubs.

out of those Capewell & Alvaro would be alright

Aaron Gray would also be handy.

@851 I think you're talking about Kurt, maybe?

 

[PabloX]

@The_Patriot I also liked the look of Dunn last weekend. Another cowboy to consider

Not much has come from from Keebra system that have gone on to NRL in the last few years

Ah I see the miss understanding ...players from Keebra that came through Wests Tigers pathways to play NRL either with us or other Clubs..

I’ll put my house on him going back to Manly.

Lost your house, re-signed with Parra for 3 years

@851 This is the type of player the club desperately needs he is CONSISTENT the team at present is all over the place consistency in the playing group is paramount moving into next season.

You'd give Thompson another modest one year deal. Solid backup if nothing else.

Doggies?

 

[TheDaBoss]

@WT2K

"Bulldogs", have a feeling he would end up there

 

[Madge]

Are we having a crack at signing peni terepo? Off contract at the end of this year and exactly what we need.

 

[Sunnycoast_tiger]

@TheDaBoss On the kennel someone has said that Raymond Faitala-Mariner is a good chance to go the West Tigers.
(RFM will be leaving the Bulldogs in the next couple of weeks, and it's a good chance it's to the West Tigers). So maybe it's a swap?

Think he's earned more than that. Nothing wrong with giving him 2 more years. Been our most consistent player since the start of 2018.

Thompson punches above his weight. Doesn't look like much, but he's deceptive. Matterson is straight up class. Our best signing since Ellis.

@Sunnycoast_tiger i won't mind RFM here tbh.
