Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[Aliceinwonderland]

His kicking game can improve a lot, as well as his decision making. His running game, he can make improvements. Give him some proper options and he will look better. I think he lacks the x factor as well but that doesn’t mean he can’t get better.

We manage our cap well so I’m not worried about losing Luai as long as this is Jimmy’s last season here.

I agree. I think Jimmy will be happy to ride off into the sunset after 2019 season.

 

[Aliceinwonderland]

Dont judge them all off the trackhead trolling in here. Most arent nearly as bad.

Sadly mate Nearly all of those I've encounted are like this. I hope there are some decent ones out there.

 

[BxTom]

There’s NO clause

Like most of the Tiggers players...

 

[New Dragon]

Hi Guys, been watching this kid for some time as he is the son of a mate of mine and I reckon he is a very good addition for you. We were hoping he would stay but I think he knew there were some long contracts in his position in front of him so held off. He played centre for Dragons and State of Origin 20's and is a strong "back rower" kind of centre ie not flashy but will work all day out of the back third and eats metres. I think averaged over 130 a game and 50 plus post contact so works hard. I wish him all the best. I will be watching with interest for my mate now at the panthers.

Cheers for the info mate! Hopefully he kicks on and has an great career! The Dragons produce great kids, so I’m sure he’ll do well.

Nathan has confirmed there's no clause about Ivan.

Even better.

 

[mxlegend99]

Now we can stop pretending to want Ivan.

 

[Westernised Panther]

bad luck Chin.......

Yep bad luck "Chin".

Thankfully he can smile inwardly knowing that he has already achieved more out of Rugby League then that pretender wearing the 7 at the Wests Tigers will ever achieve.

Speaking of which, how many finals series has your halfback featured in?

I’d be happy to have Ivan back. I’m cool with him or Ciro.

I can't remember who it was that asked what is the type of player we like... Summed up right here. Just once I would love a speedy centre with footwork. Instead of the big one that probably gets moved to the backrow at some stage

You mean like James Roberts

 

[GongPanther]

I can't see anything about a clause.

Didn't have to.

 

[franklin2323]

And where is he now... Dane Laurie is the only back in the 20's up not to fit that same mould of big and strong

Yeah because Waqa, Whare and Peachey all fit that mold don’t they? lol literally none of our centres are big slow backrower types.

Waqa is the mould we should be going for. Whare was signed as a fullback and is slow. Peachey has gone as does anyone with some type of skill.

I will miss Peachey in the Centres and I agree, I’d love a “Waqa” on both sides of the field.

I am a Whare fan but that is why I'd love to see DWZ as right centre. Get a quick winger under the highball on the wing and that backline is pretty dangerous

 

[age.s]

Whare isn't James Robert's fast, but he's not slow either. That try he scored against the Titans was all speed and footwork.

If he gets a clean run with injuries (big if, the guy isn't that sturdy) I think we'll see the player Franklin's talking about.

 

[OldPanther]

Whare is definitely not slow. He's not a speedster like Blake but he's got plenty for a centre.
