Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[franklin2323]

If players do have a problem with hook, the only thing that makes sense to me is it’s more a problem with his gameplan.

I think we would’ve heard a story or two about a bust up with a player. Those things are hard to keep under wraps.

Look at Munster/Hunt these things get out and nothing.

Brennan wants attack. Sharks want attack. We want defence so the attacking guys go. It sucks but it happens all the time

The test will be how the lower grades go this year. If he is reaping what Cleary started then we should struggle lower grades. No Brennan either he was behind the juniors with both coaches

We want defence... so we sign the worst defender in the comp? Top it off the most penalised also.

And that makes less sense when you consider Moylan and Carty were both supposedly wanted by the club still. They werent pished out for a change of direction.

Gus wanted a coach that would let the likes of Carty and Moylan do their thing. Let them keep their style. Why would that have changed after our 2016 season?

 

[Tronald Crump]

That's fair but there was clearly a group of players unhappy with the coach. Latu was clearly fall out from that as well since we had to pay for Maloney.

I am not sure so Latu was fall out for Maloney. Remember mid year he was rumoured to be shopped around to the Warriors. Latu denied it but he was spotted touring the Warriors facilities.If you not leaving why tour some other clubs facilities?

I completely forgot about that. Maybe that's why he was used for Maloney money if he wanted out anyways. One more creative player being unhappy isn't a stretch.

Have a read of that. Just to show we aren't the only team to cut players. Particularly relevant to Moylan. Not that I'm happy with things at the moment but perspective is good.

There ya go!

Peachy can go this year and we can put Munster into Centre haha

He had an offer from Brennan on the table. So I think Gus picked him knowing he could get rid of him for full value. Latu and the club wouldnt lose out in that regard.

Brennan is clearly still close to Gus. Weve released 3 players early to Titans and willdo so for Peachey if he leaves.

Just a shame Titans and Brennan are getting the better end of these deals.

 

[mxlegend99]

Gus needs to use the Carty money for Munster. Hes young enough and talented enough that the repercussions of who we lose would be worth it. Most importantly he covers the whole backline too.

Let Peachey and Mansour go. Munster would be worth it. Hell I would have him at 6 ahead of Maloney even.

But we couldnt get him. Roosters would outbid us.

For sure. Our backline would look a lot better all of a sudden.

 

[hindy111]

The problem would be finding someone to take on Tamou’s contract, that may not be easy.

Im sure a few clubs would be happy to pay 500k. What are panthers paying? My guess is 650ish and maybe a tpa.

Yep. What better damage control then to sign one of the best young players in the game who has won it all and his best footy is ahead of him.

 

[Smirrors]

Knowing his historical back problem, I wouldn't think many clubs would be unless they are desperate.

If Bellamy can’t control Munster then no one can.

If we had Craig Bellamy here cutting players id be fine with it.

Don’t think anyone suggested we’re the only club doing it, we just seem to be doing it more than any other club.

Right now, the Penrith Panthers plight in 2018 arguably represents one of Gould’s greatest challenges in four decades.

Perhaps that explains why sightings of Gould at Panthers training sessions — out on the field and working alongside coach Anthony Griffin — have been talked about increasingly over the summer.

Gould at training shows Hook can’t coach attack. He knows something is wrong there.
