Rumoured and Confirmed Signings and TheRam's whinging XXVIII

[Bigfella]

It's good for us, no doubt.

Some very very big oersonalities in the squad now.

I think that's good though.

He wouldn't have come here without Foran Scott and watmough I don't think.

We needed pace.

He can't quite turn nothing into something like Roberts can, but he will bring confidence and threat.

Can't help thinking that ba may have reconsidered playing Foran on the left of he knew we had Jennings. Foran has the much better short kicking game and that is a massive strength of Jennings.

Gutherson may still get right centre for that reAson

 

[Avenger]

What the Roosters have done is taken The Plane's former club virtually out of the picture should he choose to return to the NRL sometime over the the next 12 months.

Do you know how many players we have coming off contract in 2017?? We will have plenty of money if he decides to return in 2017.

 

[Stagger eel]

I know.
I was being polite.
The stoopid Italian has no idea.

Roosters can't afford Hayne either. They've upgraded too many players and are looking to secure Hastings and Cordner with the latter set to receive a lot of offers from various clubs now that he's one of the best second-rowers in the competition. Yeah sure they've lost RTS and Maloney but RTS was on way unders for what he was delivering and whilst Maloney would have been on a fair bit I reckon that would have gone into re-signing Ferguson and then on top of that they've re-signed Napa, Evans, Guerra, JWH, and Taukeiaho all who would have costed a fair bit plus the signing of Nikorima.

He have bugger all on contract for 2017. Could easily sign Hayne for 17 if we had to.

No reason as to why Jennings can't play on the right. http://www.parraeels.com.au/content...:content/renditions/cq5dam.web.1280.1280.jpeg It appears as if he's already there.

IS this our best recruitment drive ever? I can not think of one as good bar the dogs x 4

Foran/Jennings is huge

Beau scott -Gutherson are decent

Gordon know one really wanted but i still think a handy pick up. And than you have guys like Tanginoa-Cornish-Moss-King-Obrien who are sort of looking for a chance/redemption. There is not one signing that i do not like from this list.

If we still had Hayne do we make half these signings? Surely not. It does feel like we just bought a new team thou a little - LOL .... I guess thats the nature of the beast. I hope guys like Tepai-Semi -Manu-Kaysa step up and steal the show a little.

Every player has attitude and are competitors. This is a great squad.More talented teams around but not many with the grit Parra will have this year. And so many players that where currently good players are on the up from last year. Taka was injured-Peats played below par. Wicks-watmough-Tepai where busted. Semi missed a huge chuck as did Jnr who is still developing. KE was out all year. MAnu is only played 1 and half years of NRL. Alvaro.... This team was going to be better without signings dude to squad development. I think we could put some 40-50 point wins together this year.

Gus mentioned heaps of clubs chased him and that means paid a bit. He is tiny thou!
Also Joe Burgess from the UK. Meant to be a star.Doubt he comes for anything less then 250K. And i read they have a gun fullback from under 20's who may start in first grade Latrell mitchel than plenty of clubs want.. Still a good backline.

The recruitment drive to get 3P voted in was probably better.
Don't forget...........it got us the escalators.

Ciao.

 

[hindy111]

If we lose Jnr and Pauli for Jennings thou will people be as happy? I wont be - Mainly Jnr....

 

[whall15]

Jennings
Roberts
Hiku
Hoppa
Walker
Lafai
Copley

Though that order changes as time goes on ... 3-4 years from now might be totally different

Jennings
Roberts
Walker
Hiku
Copley
Lafai
Hopoate

for mine.

If anyone has taken Hayne out of the picture it is Foran. Jennings would be on less than half what Hayne could earn.

How will you know that that's what happened? Jnr was (by all accounts) on the way out anyway. He manages to get suspended for about 40% of the season, and has a date with the DPP in April. Pauli....that's a toss of the coin. Who knows? People get a tad carried away by the odd big run, coz he's the size of horse on steroids, but he's yet to show that he's anything super special. I could, of course, look like a total dickhead a year from now. But that's how I see it.

 

[Fanbase]

Finally a team that can climb the ladder and we can have hope for and the usuals on here find something to winge about. The usuals being the ones who'd rather we had a team full of mediocre players. Its a great team put together by a coach who looks like he knows what hes doing for a change. Just be happy you goobers.

Jnr Paulo - I rate more then mediocre.He is our best PROP. He is in our starting 13.
Without him we are weaker.

Pauli i am sure we have covered. Anyhows i heard JNR will be here this year.

I really like the way you put that hindy111. Thumbs up.
Maybe we should take into account the language barrier. Also, maybe Fanbase should also take that into account.

I see this as just a misunderstanding.
