Rumoured Signings 2014

[BunniesMan]

I'd take Benji at Centre or even wing but not five eighth.

 

[The Eagle]

Either Stewart or Inglis would go well at five eight IMO

Not sure its likely though

GI has a much better kicking game and power game

Snake adds polish to set moves that GI couldn't dream of replicating

I agree, but you lose that amazing running game from the back.

No doubt at all about that, could always pick up a random fijian winger though

I don't need heart attack material every time a kick goes up

 

[Packy]

Maybe the Sea Eagles fans can answer, why is there an assumption that Brett Stewart will follow? Zero tackle has him signed to Manly till end of 2016




I love how the Souffs brigade have started rating Sam as an irreplaceable best forward evar in the past six months. But not before that.

I have always been a massive fan of Sam. I dunno if there is a way to search my posts + Sam Burgess but you will find I love him.

Would have at the Dogs over almost anyone up to and even including Graham.

I don't disagree, but when you have a player like that, they don't exactly grow on trees

Stewart's contract ends around the time Sam is free to come back. Hopefully that is on purpose

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

Don't think we could ever fully replace Sam with just the one player. In saying that, Stewart is about as close as we could get considering what is available at the moment. What we lose in work rate we gain in smarts. Stewart also has better hands than Sam and is probably just as aggressive.

I think he will be adequate as long as he turns up to play and I don't think that Stewart is the type of player to do a Tony Williams. He is far too driven and competitive to give anything but his best.

 

[Franko]

It's always a shame to see a junior leave a team after so long. Will be weird seeing Glenn Stewart in different colours

The two Stewarts are in fact St George juniors however have been at Manly their whole adult league life

Wests Wollongong.

 

[BunniesMan]

Wests Wollongong.

St George is St George Illawarra.

 

[Dutchy]

Illawarra Steelers are still in the SG Ball and Harold Matts comps.

f**k me you talk about a lot you have no idea about.

They're Illawarra local juniors.



I'm so close to spoiling GoT for you.

 

[POPEYE]

The way opposition teams are starting to find the time needed to thwart Inglis at fullback maybe he should be returned to centre where he does so much damage to NSW. If that was the case and the impossible happened, Brett would have a field day playing with Glenn at the same club again

 

[ek999]

I think Inglis has been pretty ineffective in Origin the last couple of years since Josh Morris has marked him

 

[betcats]

Probabaly been mentioned already but Mick Ennis-> Sharks in the DT today.

They asked Paul Gallen about it on the BSB this morning and he said he hadnt heard anything but he ran into Mick not long ago and Mick was asking him all about the club so sounds like it could be a go.

 

[ek999]

Would like to see Ennis stay for another 2 years so Lichaa isn't thrust into the hooker role for 80 minutes straight up. Have Lichaa coming off the bench next year and Ennis off the bench in a relieving role in 2016 before Lichaa gets the gig for 80 minutes from 2017 onwards

Benji's manager has told Fox Sports News he'll sign with Sharks within 24 hours

I don't think GI is being thwarted, I think he is playing it safe at this time of the year. Last year when he was blowing away teams he was taking the line on at 100 miles per hour

I think we will see that later in the year

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

A few rumours from this weeks RLW-

Steve Matai -> Warriors
Isaac Luke -> Warriors
Konrad Hurrell -> Souths
Chris McQueen -> Cowboys in a swap deal for
Tariq Sims -> Souths
Josh Mansour -> Souths

Also mentions that the Cowboys are sniffing around both Cam McInnes and Api Koroisau

 

[Bulldog Force]

Interesting that Souths are after Mansour, again, especially considering Penrith are tabling a deal to retain him!
