Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

[magpie_man]

I agree Shredder - I can't ever remember having such a dearth of legitimate, first-grade standard forwards on the books.... potentially.
My biggest concern in recent weeks was Cleary's seemingly myopic focus on signing depth in the backs leaving the forward-depth ankle-deep.
Clifferd's revelation has definitely quelled those fears.

 

[magpie_man]

Vete is 24 mate and would probably be our next best prop after Packer and Matulino - good value

My mistake - thanks for the scoop mate.

 

[Vic Mackey]

We have offered contracts to said 5 players;

Albert Vete, Brenton Lawrence, Curtis Rona, Jeremy Latimore, Alex Glenn.

My mail is we are likely to get 4/5 with Glenn being the unlikely one

cheers mate, i remember some panthers fans saying they reckon we would go fro Latimore as he was a IC favourite. i wouldnt mind him or lawrence as another experienced hard head would be great for our team.

really hoping we get rona too, would round our backline off nicley.

I will b stoked if we get the 4 as we will enter the '18 season with a very tough & well balanced squad with very adequate depth.I was hoping we'd chase Lawrence.

Btw the Broncos shouldn't have any trouble fitting Glenn under there infinite cap !!

 

[Vozzy]

Alex Glenn is very underrated I've never seen a poor game from him for broncos. Can play centre and second row. Good defensive centre. Also is good captain when other players have rep duties these are they kinds of players every team needs.

All would be good signings but I'll believe it when I see it.

Same here. We've had plenty so far this year and there is no reason we won't get more but I'll wait and see. Does anyone know which if any rugby team is being kicked out of the comp. I thought a decision was being made today ?

No doubt, the source said they have only been offered reasonable contracts, more than what they are currently earning. No confirmation though

Western Force I'm fairly sure mate, the Perth team

Alex Twal has been released today, guess you can expect him at Camp Concord tomorrow. Good worker, see if he can get to the next level for you guys.

Where did you hear this Clifferd...I don't mind Vete, Rona and Glenn. All would be good additions, the other two solid players.

Cheers mate. Never seen him play but IC has a high opinion of him after having him in the Lebanon team. From what I've heard he's more a consistent work horse guy as opposed to your impact, destructive prop. You'd imagine he will get a few games this year then be competing with Felisse and Eisenhuth for a bench spot come round 1 2018.

Heard it from a mate who's close to some Tigers officials. Usually gets the inside scoop eefore most people

Thanks Clifferd.

Tapou from the Chooks is looking a very good chance. Not sure if I think he would be a good buy, but he is good under the high ball both in attack and defence

I would take Rona over Tupou any day of the week.

 

[madunit]

I'd take either over Naiqama

 

[glockers]

If Connor Watson signs then what do we do with Lolohea?

 

[Das Hassler]

That would be entirely up to him..just as is being shown ( with class) by Benji.. he would need to earn his spot. It should be the case across tje whole team regardless of reputation or salary

 

[super_coach]

Iam told Topou is a done deal but Watson will be at the Knights if the Chooks can't find away to do some urgent repairs to their salary cap
