Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

Looks like we will get Koroisau now according to Brent Read.

We have no doubt offered him big dollars to get him away from the Dogs.

I had a feeling the Board wanted to get a couple of signings in the door ASAP.

Koroisau will be 27 at the start of the 2020 season. Good to finally get someone at their peak!

Done deal with the Dogs...more like let's make a splash in the papers to see who will offer him more.

I don't think we have a choice. They arent moving Nathan. Pay overs, we need a hooker.

We need someone like him honestly

Player managers use the media like this regularly to bump up prices.

 

[MugaB]

Yeah Brent Reed, is annoying usually on the nose tho

 

[betcats]

Good signing. Go after a good prop now or throw what we can at Fifita jnr if he’s not signed yet though that’s probably a pipe dream anyway.

The fact they’re chasing Api so hard at least says they recognise hooker is a problem for us.

Kenny was never going to be long term option. He is an average NRL player.

Kenny would be good to have around the club though. Perhaps as ISP captain.

Well it doesn't take much footy I.Q to realise two rookies who May or may not become good aren't going to help us win a comp. Give the guys time to develop properly.

So is the coach, any chance of them chasing a new one...

 

[herbert henry1908]

Done deal.

True, but I’ve never been confident in our footy IQ

 

[Fangs]

Guys like Kenny/Katoa have a future. Right now they have to be more than full time hookers. Lots of clubs turning guys like this into utility options from the bench.

Katoa will have to do it elsewhere. Kenny next year will have to push to play on the bench. And he won't play any 9 unless there is an injury.

Looking forward to seeing an 80 minute hooker in the team again.

You might have a point since they went back to a coach they had already sacked.

 

[Dave's mate]

Done deal.

Handy 9 and an upgrade but not a game changer. Probably need a new fullback with this signing

 

[ACTPanthers]

Great signing - We NEEDED an experienced hooker, and Api fits the mould beautifully - May not be the best looking spine with:
1. Edwards
6. Luai
7. Cleary
9. Koroisau

But looks better than previously in my opinion.

Burton will be the 6 i think

 

[martielang]

Stoked. Terrific signing.

 

[BestHookerRein]

Imagine getting rid of Mitch Rein and replacing him with a subpar alternative.

Dear oh Dear

Almost as bad as Tigers replacing Robbie Farah with an older Robbie Farah
