Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[Original Name]

To be fair, there isn’t a player in the NRL that would have even come close to running Paps down.

Ado Car, a fit James Roberts or that young Cowboys outside back are the only ones that might have a chance.

Paps is quicker

Since we are discussing it here:

1. 2020 Edwards: 2021 honestly should try Luarie there. Looks like he has a good running and passing game. Very well rounded. There's debate whether or not he's as quick as Staines.

2. 2020 Mansour: 2021 Staines, that left edge would be so good it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. The extra speed would be crazy.

3. 2020 Crichton(L centre): 2021 no change just keep developing and grow into his body. Star in the making.

4. 2020 Various(R centre): 2021 No idea what's happening with Naden but would love to see Naden go to Centre. Good runner of the ball, great passing and kicking.

5. 2020 To'o: 2021 again no change obviously.

6. 2020 Luai: 2021 Luai.

7. 2020 Cleary: 2021 Cleary.

8. 2020 Tamou: 2021 Fish

9. 2020 Api: 2021 Api.

10. 2020 Fish: 2021 Leota, needs to sort out his handling or this won't last long but looks good otherwise.

11. 2020 Kikau: 2021 Kikau

12. 2020 Martin: 2021 Martin.

13. 2020 Yeo: 2021 Yeo

14. May

15. Capewell

16. Tetevano

17. Lenui(promoted with Tamou leaving for tigers.)

Most of the side picks itself. Martin hit the wall but will get a freshen up and be better for the run. Just is right centre but there are plenty of external options to fix that

Pretty much. I think introducing Burton, Staines, Luarie into the starting team would make a difference with those guys being very well rounded players. Of course No idea what's going on with Naden so that changes things depending how it turns out.

 

[Luke Bowden]

Flanno has signed with the Dogs. Not sure if this effects their pursuit of Burton?

They already spoke to him so I assume this means he said no(tentative assumption)

 

[Port Panther]

With the new rule changes and speed of the game the fast little man has made a return so Charlie and Daine have us well placed to benefit from their inclusions .
Everyone will be on the lookout for a Papps clone .

They can’t have too much money left if any. I tend to think this works in our favour in respect of Burton.

 

[Whino]

There are reports Blake Green may retire to take up a coaching job at the Knights. Dogs may still be in the hunt for a half.

 

[franklin2323]

Wakeham was a gun all through juniors. Is only 21 so they should be fine for their halves now

 

[herbert henry1908]

They let Foran go plus have a stack of players off contract at the end of 2021. I doubt cap space is an issue.

Who are these external options you’re referring to? Momirovski and maybe Rennings are the only guys I can see with some sort of pedigree. JMoz would be a great one year stop gap towards Turuva but not sure we’d have space.

Never look at only who is off contract players get released all the time. Just this off season alone James Roberts, Clifford and Flanagan have been moved on. No doubt more will follow.

off those who are available. Burton would be 1st option can move him to the backrow in 2 years when Turuva is ready.

To come in Robert Jennings and Bradon Burns. Then we have backup as it is needed. Both can also play wing if needed too

Jordan Kahu? I don't follow the Donkeys closely enough to know why he hasn't been playing first grade

Katoni Staggs is another.

 

[Smug Panther]

Haha oh Jane

 

[Bob]

Katoni Staggs is another.

And people say you don't have a sense of humour

 

[Jane Murray]

And people say you don't have a sense of humour

You're the only one who said that? So what is the problem with him?

 

[Luke Bowden]

You're the only one who said that? So what is the problem with him?

He is a super star that would cost a bomb.

Not a fringe first grader who adds value.

We sign staggs, say goodbye to Burto and quite a few of our off contract players.
