Confirmed Signings

[dogslife]

The times they are a changin’

Word is getting out that Newcastle is one of the best places to live in Australia.

Can anyone not from Newcastle confirm this?

The Knights would still have a bit of change tucked in the back pocket, we have 1 more roster slot to fill and my understanding was they were looking for another quality signing. They may change tact now that Klemmer is over the line, though... there's going to be a lot of players expecting upgrades down the track over the next 3 seasons. Keeping the squad evolving and the core components together will be difficult. We'll probably want to keep some space for that. Keeping Ponga is going to take a herculean effort... and may not be possible depending on who you talk to.

All in all I think we've seen the vast majority of Newcastle's spending spree for the forseeable future... it's going to be about grooming youngsters to fill spots and keeping the core of the squad together from here. Good chance that Klemmer is the last notable signing. Good to finish with a bang.

Kurt Mann.

Sure, if you're ever on your travels between Sydney and Northern NSW/QLD and see the turn off for Newcastle - just keep driving.

Take Townsville and swap the crocs for drugs and you have Newcastle

Take the Aussies out of Tokyo and you have Cairns.

Yeah, I forgot the Mann thing fizzled. 2 spots, 1 of them likely to be kept open in case something comes up. There's probably still a bit in the bank but not Klemmer-like money by any stretch.

How many times are they going to play the roosters this year?

Maybe twice, but there is a good chance Pearce,SKD,Moga will be injured, in therapy or suspended by the nrl(the holiday period and Australia Day are yet to be overcome) so it will probably only be Guerra and Watson that will have to aim up for the two games.

Newcastle may actually get affected by origin this year. Been awhile since I said that
