Rumours and Stuff

I'd kill for your LU career, bro!

LOL!!


I carry on like a drunken loon and am constantly exposed like a Portuguese chicken. You are easily one of the best posters on LU bar none.

 

[gaffer]

add Cotric, Asiata and Peats to the roster and we could win the comp. Bring it on 2020 & 2021 premiers.

and then you woke up with your #### in your hand

 

[hineyrulz]

Isnt that tanner boyd guy pretty good?

Not really, he has a contract because he is David Fafita’s best mate.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

I think that's an ancient Stoic saying.

Either that or it's a new name for 'Spring Break'.

Yeh but at least you're open about it. Everyone needs a hobby.

According to Zero Tackle, we are keen on Peats again.

Always was a fan of Peats. Hope he plays well if he comes home!

 

[T-Boon]

Yep, I'd be fine with Peats as back up hooker, backrower for one year at $150k. He could be good for 20 minute stints.

He’d be a better option than Stoney TBH.

Agreed - at least as a hooker.

Nathan Peats has that real sort of merkin about him, and and he has some nice aggression.

He would be a good depth booker, to give our gun number 9 a spell.

Yeah, I dunno. There's a reason Arthur let him go, I think. I've got a feeling he might be in the Corey Norman mould - as in, not fantastic for the culture of the club. Also his best playing days are way behind him. I'd prefer Stone.

What lingard said

 

[Joely01]

I think a backup hooker is really all we need for next year!
The squad is building nicely and I think next year is our peak year

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Trouble maker. Dont think hed fit the culture we are building. Always a sma*t ass on SM. Huge pass at any cost. BA knew what he was doing punting Peatsy. If he rated him he would have been re signed before the SHTF. was average then and has gone backwards since.
Not a fan but you probably guessed that. Lol.

I don’t think he didn’t rate him, it was just we didn’t see any value in what he wanted.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

He’s ok. I don’t know if any good club would be breaking the bank to sign him.

definitely don’t break the bank but on a small contract reckon he would offer something to our squad.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

This article says it all...4th choice hooker at one stage..if you are going to offer Peats circa $200k you probably get Levi for around the same..Levi 25 years old in Dec and Peats turns 30 on Monday..watching Peats he has regressed badly.

OVERSEAS INTEREST IN PEATS

Nathan Peats is no longer part of the Gold Coast’s plans moving forward but a move overseas could be on the cards for the hooker.

Total Rugby Leaguereports that Peats has been offered to clubs in the North Hemisphere.

Peats, who previous played in the No. 9 jumper for the NSW Blues, played 76 games for the Titans after linking up with the club from Parramatta.

He has been unable to capture his best form though and at one point this year was the side’s fourth-choice hooker.

not sure where the $200k came from. But the benefit of Peats over Levi is he is stronger defensively plus he can also play a middle forward role.

 

[T-Boon]

I don't think Peats has ever played in a good team with a dominant pack to hook behind. I am definitely interested to see how he would go behind our pack.

 

[Gazzamatta]

I don’t think he didn’t rate him, it was just we didn’t see any value in what he wanted.

Ive no inside info but I reckon BA made some huge errors with regard to players he enlisted and the effect on our culture early in his tenure.
Hayne after his Tits stint.
Foran and his "health" issues.
Watmough some good but mostly bad.
When these (and probably some lesser lights) are compared to more recent recruits I kinda think the recruitment and retention have it pretty right now days. I think Peats wore out his welcome but if he comes home I'll bow to the heirachy that makes it so. One in all in. W Smith can keep the seat warm until Schnider is ready hopefully.
