Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[Jane Murray]

Not long ago it was 25.

All depends on what the rules are for using players outside your top 26. If they make that a little more flexible then 26 can work.

Also highlights, that players versatility is essential.

 

[herbert henry1908]

Top 26 might actually benefit us. With our junior systems I’d back us to have more NRL ready talent outside the top 26 than other clubs.

 

[John Hamblin]

If Tamou goes and we are looking for another cheaper option Mat Eisenhuth and Peni Terepo might be good options

25 was extended for a reason. Was 25 but had NYC etc too. Not sure how say someone like Cowboys would get access to fill their squad when injuries hit

Would need more experience. A 100 gamer or so

Queensland cup is just as good as the NSW reserves, maybe better.

Hello
Bit quite in the signing room .November is getting close .Burton Staines I understand there both seeing what is out there but Crichton is a worry .If they are waiting on Tamhou don’t give him a offer 1 week then it’s of the table and sign the others

The business is largely done, just the fine print to be finalised.

Patience, my friend.

Like what?

 

[franklin2323]

The Salary Cap still isn't sorted is the main holdup

Crichton is not a worry it is a done deal. The process is slowed by clauses. It will be done soon.
Burton is getting closer to staying.

Thanks Blade. That is reassuring.

What is the prospect that we might manage to keep Tamou for one more year?

Very unlikely.

 

[Aliceinwonderland]

Very unlikely.

Quite understandable.

There will be a club willing to pay big money for 2 or 3 years for his experience and work ethic. Wouldn't shock me if he went to W/T

Will Capewell stay next year ?

Yes.

 

[Michael Matral]

Yes.

That's 1000 likes Blade..

 

[franklin2323]

Queensland cup is just as good as the NSW reserves, maybe better.

They use Townsville, Mackay and Northern Pride as feeder teams. You can't logistically sign all those guys as feeder players.

So I wait to see what the contract structure is.

 

[age.s]

Burton staying would be a pleasant surprise. Was sure there'd be a club willing to start him.

Blade are you privy to what his role in the squad will be? Just first drop in the halves?

 

[theinsideman]

Squads will remain at 30 while development squads are likely to be cut to 4 instead of Upto 6 - via Pete V’landys 100% Footy
