Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Heres an article about a guy we apparently tried to sign before Oliver Gildart, he’s seemingly available to be signed for the 2021 season. Only 23 and has won two grand finals in England and played for Great Britain.

He’s a centre but if Mbye gets moved he could slot into his spot. Biggest issue is the fact that outside backs from England very rarely succeed in the NRL but maybe he’s an okay option.

He’s just switched his manager to Sam Ayoub who’s a close friend of Farah and also managed Doueihi and Nofa and he said he’s keen on playing in the NRL.

Tigers looked at Gildart last year and decided he was too small.

Yeah we also have Momirovski back next year so we probably won’t get him.
 
Giddart is 183 cms and 85kgs...giving away 15kgs to the average NRL centre….
Wld have said the same thing about Bateman though at 96kgs....!And look what happened there...

Why, we don’t have a lot of back up.
Have heard the tigers have Sounded out corey hawarewa ( don’t think I spelled it right ) word as it he is open to joining the tigers , once he allowed back.

I don't mind, Mbye can slot at the back if AD was to go down, although our wing stocks will be hit significantly, if we have a back up lined up then I am for it.

Big call if the club let him go. Not sure who backs AD up if a injury strikes and not sure who covers the 2 and 5. On the other hand it would be good to see the club not stand in his way.

Have we a replacement set?
 
I’m sure we would have someone coming in to take his spot straight away if we are releasing him. Replacing a 30 year old who isn’t making the team with (hopefully) a young talent who can play wing is good business

He did write a balanced article regarding Cronulla, it's testing regime and Xerri. Perhaps ASADA should've investigated him?
