Rumoured and Confirmed Signings with added crap - XXVI

[Swiftstylez]

I heard he's gone to Warrington to play with Chrissy. Looks like we missed out again.

Source, I'm sure if this were true I would know about it.

:lol: The desperate Duke payed over's again in a position that they had covered. Didn't so anything to sort out their halves and shitty crap pack.

Hiku to fullback could mean Moylan in the halves with some Martin guy who is highly rated.

I'm pretty sure it was his mum:

Watching that Reddy highlights reel is almost as exciting as watching a Hayne one, one of the most underrated players to ever play the game.

That's an interesting source You must be the person that is in charge of recruiting and retention at the Eels with such an eye for talent

If I was running it, we'd have 25 Origin players, and $4m free cap space left. We might get in trouble in 2017 though.

Nice! If I were running our team I would go back in time to 2007 with the same roster and coach, bring them forward (without aging) to 2016 where they would win a premiership, because the only reason they didn't was because of the Storm cheating.

BUT LET'S NOT BE SILLY, our team has been amazing since then ALL U HAVE TO DO IS CHANGE COACH

I agree on Hiku - I think he is a solid player but people are carrying on like he is a superstar. Same goes for Lafai.

I am more then happy with our squad. If we have 400k pare then we can restructure some deals perhaps.No point on throwing money away. I honestly do not mind Morgan but still think one of the other guys may impress us. If gutherson is good enough for the centres then we need to find a winger.

There will still be some moves before the season starts.Let not get out knickers in a knot.

You see that is where you are delusional. I have never seen anyone praise DA for anything at the club. The only time DA is ever mentioned is when someone blames him for something. People like myself argue to add balance because if people are going to be hysterical about something without any evidence then why not question it?

Don't you find it funny that whenever there are rumours from specific people that they are only ever against non 3P people? Or are you too busy crying like a girl that the sky is falling over a rumour?

We seemingly stumbled our way to decent recruitment for next year, that seems your take on it?

Personally I like to think it is a team effort, all involved play their part. Seeing as I don't know who is specifically responsible (although you seem to know everything) as I'm not part of the club, I will praise them all.

But you continue jumping off a cliff every time someone posts a rumour and I'll focus on getting ready for next season.

Stumbled our way to decent recruitment is a good way to put it. How would you describe the whole Foran saga??? Eventually getting him after the club was made the laughing stock of the league and unable to get any TPA's for one of the more marketable players in the comp.Just think we could of been stuck with Hoppa on our books on ridiculous money. Which would of give us no chance to sign Gutherson and hopefully another first grade quality outside back.

Who knows maybe they were the f**k ups and the wake uptherge club needed to pull us in line with other professional clubs. Getting Schubert in has been a smart idea, and we have made some smart depth signings who have the ability to step up and play first grade. And we aren't willing to pay silly overs for a guy like Hiku so who knows I could be on the DA pom Pom waving bandwagon ;-)

Roberts would be a great signing. He's a freak.

7.Foran
6.Norman
5. Gutherson
4. Roberts
3. SEMI
2. French
1. Gordon

Thats a quick back line

He is a freak, but he's also a big risk if being paid anything like the $$ suggested. I hope he has sorted his shit out, but it's risk factor that has to be reflected in what you'd pay him.

 

[Swiftstylez]

Roberts was always a better choice than Hiku

 

[Kornstar]

I think that's a stupid, childish way to look at it, and says more about you than it does 'them'.

It's pretty obvious that the people trying to control the club all do love it, but they also believe in themselves, and almost certainly believe that the club will go downhill unless they are in charge. They could be right or they could be wrong, but that doesn't mean they're evil or whatever f**king fantasy category you want to place them into.

Thanks for your input, it is highly valued :roll:

RGC - Would be in top 3 young props in game.

Merrin - State of origin player - Current

Cartwright - Best talent and ball playing forward ive seen coming thru in a while.

Elijah Taylor - Id swap watmough or Scott for this guy

Than you have Tyrone peachey and Mckendry who are I guess ok without being great.

Far from a rubbish pack - They have also signed Grevshmul and have a young guy called fisher Harris who might surprise a few.....

Agree, Hindy. Their pack is better than ours. It's the halves where we should have a definite edge. (Been a long time since we could say that.)

Moylan, Mansour, Hiku, Whare, Mnasour is pretty decent back 5 too..

Unfortunately though, having this type of perspective is often seen as being an "apologist for all the clubs failures" by others who blow up about the club at the drop of a hat.

I call it a sensible middle ground.

Don't give me that 'middle-ground' bullshit. You're a bloody apologist. I can spot one a mile off.

 

[lingard]

Which is no different from continuing to pay him, except at least if you're paying him you can guarantee he won't go to another club if he comes back.

No I don't think we're leaving space for his return - at least not for 2016.

:lol::lol::lol: Do you even think before you reach for that key-board?

Damn. I've been sprung...

 

[lingard]

I was told we have enough money for two quality backs, a quality forward and another quality half.

Source: A Gibberer with no idea.

Could you ask him who he thinks will win next year's Melbourne Cup and let me know?

A horse called Ivor. Keep an eye out for it.

How are you going to be any more competitive leaving cap space for a player than if you were paying him not to be there?
