Rumoured Signings 2014

[Raider_69]

Kevin locke to storm. announcement supposed to be made this week. Slater moving to 6 to prolong his career

that would be interesting...

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

bellamy doesnt put up with egos or princesses so Locke better leave his baggage in NZ

 

[Raider_69]

If true, a move to #6 will be very interesting, i think he can make a very good 5/8th, at least one good enough to be a foil for Cronk and Smith and keep Melbourne close to premierships

 

[SilentOne]

It would end his origin career though, If he's not playing FB for the storm I can't see him being picked for QLD.

Queensland always pick our back line out of position (compared to their club position). Inglis always plays centre, Boyd always plays wing, folau always played wing, Tate plays wing, cronk/cherry-Evans/Bowen played hooker off the bench.

If slater is fit, he'll be the qld fullback

 

[bluey]

6 would shorten his carreer if anything

 

[POPEYE]

Hope Locke goes somewhere else, if Bellamy's now going to condone poaching I imagined it would be someone who could fulfill expectations.

Disgaree. I think Slater has seen the writing on the wall with regards to QLD, he might stay in the FB for for 2014, but sooner rather than later QLD will be forced to play Inglis at fullback because he's too good not to be there

Jamie Lyon makes him look better than he is.

I don't think he is a bad player, I just think the nature of the winger's game is changing. Wingers are bigger, stronger, taller than ever. Guys like Wolfman and Merritt are smaller players, the last of an old style of winger who was small and elusive. Personally I hope our team moves past that. Merritt really held us back this year

Wolfman is way better than Merritt,he is a handy player,and would benefit most clubs.

 

[nrlnrl]

I have heard Wolfman to Souths

Which doesn't really thrill me

Williams & Lyon will both re-sign with Manly ( apparently 2 years & 3 years respectively )

 

[BranVan3000]

He is only better at this point due to being three years younger. They have similar weaknesses in defence

 

[Armageddon.]

Really?
I have heard Glen Fisiiahi to Souths..

 

[B-Hard]

Surely not.

 

[BranVan3000]

I have heard that too. Plus Vili Lolohea and one of the props from Warrior's NYC team'

At least those are the rumours going around Souths circles. Haven't heard anything definitive

Fish one is nonsense. Mole tweeted that Souths had signed someone fast from the Warriors. It's Lolohea, not Fish.

Not sure on the Warriors prop. I find that odd because as far as I know they're all backing up next season aside from Vete who is upgraded to a first grade contract.

Maybe Souths have done a sneaky or someone has been forced out because of our two English imports coming.

Well the rumour about Fish has it that he is being forced out due to the English imports. The NYC players rumour seems to be separate

 

[SaraSassypants]

God I hope we don't sign Wolfman he's massively overrated.

:lol: considering they have allowed Locke to look around for a new contract in the next two weeks you really think we would possibly let both Locke and Fisiiahi go because Tomkins is coming?

Maybe if Locke can't find a suitor in the next fortnight them they keep Locke and release the fish??

That's the only way I could see it work.
