Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[Rhyno]

Blake and Jennings the best center pairing in the comp

All 4 of those you mentioned are rep players though and look at the position they play. Ivan's team plays boring footy so why do we need $1m plus on outside backs that play good every so often.

If that money goes to fixing the pack then it is an improvement. Peachey for Blake is a decent enough trade just need to see where the rest of the money is going

The positions they currently play are a centre and 3x reserve graders.

 

[Rhyno]

OMG I’m shaking I’m so excited baby!!

 

[abpanther]

He was extended late last year till 2023.

Yeah I know that wanted to know how much per year he was on

 

[mxlegend99]

Iirc one of Cleary’s best players in his first stint with us was an outside back, Dave Simmons. What’s changed?

Why could his team then find its wingers, but now it can’t?

Moylan and Whare in his prime. 2 guys who could quickly spread the ball and create space

Injury does that and hindsight shows a bad call but if all stayed healthy who knows

 

[Dave's mate]

Well Peach sure as hell doesn't help with this

 

[herbert henry1908]

No Moylan now. We desperately need a ball playing FB

Moylan only came in halfway through 2013, which is the year Simmons scored 19 tries. Moylan had 4 try assists. Has to be more to it.

 

[franklin2323]

You would think him and DWZ combined would free up $1m

 

[OldPanther]

Might as well go all in and move on Whare and Mansour. At this point we might as well get some development for next year happening.

Peak Whare and Soward too. We had a better overall team back then

 

[BxTom]

Funny thing is the club seemed to think we were ready to take the next step. Instead of doing that Ivan is tearing down the roster to buy himself time under the justification of "rebuilding".

THIS!

Simmons big year was only 50% with Moylan, was moylans first season

Soward didn’t come until 2014

Luke Walsh was the halfback in 2013

Not yet. See who we can get with the cash 1st can't go all kids

Add Maloney to that list(Not because he's bad just get Luai playing)

All 4 players were poor signings and it was pretty obvious they would be on those ridiculous overvalued contracts.

The guy who couldnt see they were bad value is now in charge of our roster.

 

[OldPanther]

Didn't say they had to be kids. If they can buy the kind of winger we need by all means.

 

[Kilkenny]

You would think him and DWZ combined would free up $1m

I don’t place any credence in the made up figures the press come up with. When the rumours about DWZ first surfaced it was suggested his deal was in the vicinity of 400K per season, by the end they were saying 700K a season, just ridiculous stuff. I think both would have been in the 400K region so hopefully we may have 800K most of which will be needed to upgrade the likes of TO’O, Blore, Leniu and a few others.

Can’t have two rookie centres, key defensive position.

Unless we get Peachey I guess
