Merrin wants back

[hazzbeen]

He wants back , 1 year contract , Maybe ?

 

[Coffs dragon]

I don't blame him, I'd want Sally back too! Sorry Haz LOL

100 percent , thats part of the deal , he went backwards when they split ....

 

[blacksafake]

For next to nothing he’s probably ok for a prop rotation. Don’t forget Gus once said he should be captain of the blues

 

[Saint_JimmyG]

A fully fit and committed Merrin would be a tremendous boon for SGI. Of course, he needs to go back to his best position...prop.

 

[Dragonslayer]

It would be a curious signing if it ever eventuated.

Merrin is a prop, not a lock or edge forward, he is a prop and a good one when on-song.

Big if and assumption here would be:
Vaughan/Graham start
Lawrie/ Merrin bench props
K.Sims to lock
When Friz is fit, he returns to edge forward with Host reverting to the bench in place of Leilua.

Don't think Graham is long for NRL, Coaches should put him out to pasture at seasons end.
Poor bugger gets up from every other hit-up/tackle clutching his neck or shoulder, and offers little in the way of getting us over the advantage line. Not doubting his commitment passion or leadership. But Merrin would offer far more in regards to on field ability imo.

 

[FlameThrower]

Reports indicate he reached out to the Dragons - as he is not happy in the UK.

 

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

I'd have him back, but he'd have to start in reserves and force his way into the team. I agree with Tumbi that Graham looks stuffed, and may not be in the game beyond this year.

Are you saying we should prop him up?

What happens to Jdb when he comes back ?

 

[kit66]

What happens to Jdb when he comes back ?

Then we have two ball playing props. Short passes close to the line to other rampaging forwards, late off-loads, part of an attacking play with skillful passing, rock solid defence. all that x 2.

Can he play next week ! Merrin I mean. He's just what we need.

 

[hewi]

Doesn’t matter who we get to play unless the coach is replaced. Yes, I’d take him back tomorrow.

 

[possm]

Sign Merrin with De Belin's salary cap. Let go Allgood, Latimore and Graham when JDB comes back.

Kerr
MicInnes
Vaughan
T Sims
K Sims
Lawrie

Robson
Graham
Merrin
Host

 

[barry]

I’d have him back perfect replacement for JDB

 

[Dragonsamy]

If he is fully committed.
And he contacted us .
So you would assume that he was totally committed. We need all the help we can get

 

[Smurf]

I think Merrin would be a great , ok good , replacement but for Graham next year
But , yes , I’d have him this year ( plus a fast winger !!!!!!!! )

 

[since77]

At the right price its a no brainer. I'm not the biggest Merrin fan but he'd be far more effective than Latimore coming off the bench.

With you mate , never been a big fan for me he was overrated , but would be OK for us ....

 

[TruSaint]

No thanks.
Pass.
