Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[Fangs]

Penrith will definitely move a player on and get Maloney because it will be a PR disaster if Maloney doesn't come now. Gus will look like an idiot.

If we do lose a player I think its going to be Peachey. One of my favourites but he still hasn't locked down a spot in the side. Katoa/May will be pushing for a bench position and he will face plenty of competition from Whare at centre.

There was a rumour that he asked for a release earlier this year as well.

He played for 13 years with that prick Cameron Smith. I am sure he was looking forward to working with anyone that got him away from him

He could very well owe his career to him though.

Without the best hooker in the game he could have been a Luke Brooks. It will be interesting to see how he goes without Bellamy and Smith.

Although its hard to see him struggling in a spine with Tedesco, Keary and Friend. But we can dream that losing Pearce splits the playing group.

 

[mxlegend99]

It’s arguable though that the club should’ve waited to release Moylan until Maloney could meet with the sponsors.

With the way it is another club could swoop in and steal Maloney.

What club wants him?

Everyone has aimed for Moylan and Cronk. Now everyone wants Pearce. Knights were the only team to express interest .

Well as you say, the Knights.

And they have a heap of spare cash.

Maloney would also be a much better fit at Manly than Pearce.

I honestly think the DCE/Pearce combo will be a disaster. They both demand the ball too much, they’re both natural first receivers.

 

[bebo]

Oh well if that’s true, he’s gone to the right club...

It’s true I have had several conversarions with people who have witnessed him taking part

I have heard whispers that Carty is being shopped around and Manly are interested

Green was Manly’s organising half while DCE played the eye's up. Pearce would fit well because he'd follow the script while DCE did his work.

Then Moylan wouldn't do a full pre season with Sharks though.

Do you think?

Pearce to me has always been the type that directed the play through ball handling.

It’ll be interesting to see how it works.

Ordinary forward pack though still

it’s only 3 weeks less than normal. Would the sharks really back out over 3 weeks?

Leaves us a bit short in centres if injuries strike with only Whare & Blake.
We have more depth in the forwards if we have to lose a player. Latu maybe?

 

[Luke Bowden]

I think we will lose Cartwright if anyone.

Yeah to me Pearce is someone who just plays what the coach gives him. He could play 1st receiver while DCE roams and takes over if something is on.

 

[herbert henry1908]

I think we will lose Cartwright if anyone.

Why's that?

 

[Whino]

This Maloney stuff is starting to remind me of the bad old days the club was run.

 

[Luke Bowden]

Why's that?

I think he’s easy to market, we have heaps of backrowers and don’t really need him.

His last 12 months have been horrible and I think he could be talked into a fresh start.

 

[Whino]

Surely if the Keno deal goes up Uncle Lou can't come on board with another?

 

[Buzzard Breath]

I think he’s easy to market, we have heaps of backrowers and don’t really need him.

On the flip side he has plenty of motivation after last season to come next year with us to have a ripper of a year.

100%!! I don’t want to lose him.. I don’t want to lose anyone.

True. But he really is something special.

We shouldn't keep everyone on potential alone. But when he is on he is literally unstoppable.
