Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Aesopian]

Josh Hoffman joining the club on a basic deal for 2020.

But why?

Cheap doesn't always mean value for money. I see no value even for the CC side.
Bit of a MWZ signing

 

[earl]

Packer, Mbye, Clark, Garner, Leilua, Twal … bench i would have Mikeale, Musgrove, Aloiai, Reynolds and if we get that Stefano Utoikamanu he’d be on my starting bench instead.

The pack is going to be interesting.

8. Mikaele
9. Walters
10. Twal
11. Garner
12. L Leilua
13. Eisenhuth

14. Aloiai
15. Musgrove
16. Chee-Kam
17. Reynolds

The words ‘Hooper’ and ‘reporting’ should never be in the same sentence.

Sad if true though even if it is the Rorters

Look through his wiki page .....shoulder injury .....shoulder injury .....shoulder injury probably thought someone had changed his name by depol to shoulder injury

So outside the Top 30 is the new excuse is it .....if we sign players outside the Top 30 they should be for the future ...not back to the future signings

Are they trying to get us relocated to Perth ......


It is very strange.

Not top 30, so won't help with NRL side now.
Old, so won't help long term.
Tons of injuries, so won't help much in state cup.
Not exactly a noted leader also.

Surely there must be some fullbacks or potential fullbacks in our CC?

 

[Roar_Power]

Ha, I actually don't mind Hoffman as a signing outside the top 30.

Poor bit like liddle got bucket loads of talent just can’t seem to stay injury free...was looking forward to watching smith progress this year

From Latrell one minute to Josh Hoffman the next minute.
Can we go any lower?

Yes we can

We've done it before

This is the most disappointing POM visit to the site since the Pita Godinet news of late 2017.

I was hoping for some better news after it from him but it never came

In the top 30 or outside?

Understand it’s outside the top 30.

Thanks Pom, an international for base outside the top 30, we can all calm down now

My question is ‘why’?

Maybe that's as good as it gets?

 

[avocadoontoast]

Surely there is some younger players to play cc before Josh Hoffman...only thing I can think off is take him off eels books to get stefano over here quicker...?


If our management is any good, that will be the case.

If it is a salary dump for Stefano = great move.

Can our management pull it off?

Going on the past we will get nothing, simply assist Parramatta.

Lets see.

Can the the Pom comment if this is indeed in return for Stefano?

Parra press featuring him a lot lately, does not look like they are about to let him go???

But isn't he off contract? Signed for 3 years (17,18,19).

 

[TCL]

I had to do a Google search cause i couldn't recall who he was. @Demps will be happy cause he has a good looking partner. She must be a regular search cause it comes up as a suggestion.

Outside the 30 is OK.

Maybe

That would be so disappointing

Surely there must be someone decent willing to sign with us

Exactly. Another recruitment win like Hoffman could be just around the corner if we play our cards right.
