Rumoured & Confirmed Signings (2025 Season)

[BossleyPanther]

I like O'Halloran

 

[IcemanCleary]

They haven't actually confirmed it in writing but panthers put up training photos in their socials and guess who were there, Patrick Moimoi and Toby Crosby.

Anyone that hasn't looked at his highlights he is an absolute BEAST. Could be anything I will go down at the first opportunity when he plays lower grades to watch him. VERY excited about what he can do!!

The news is that Henry is off to bears, its a loss but I am very hopeful he takes over that bench spot

Thats Patea's spot

After seeing how fast he is, we should try and make him our next Kikau.

Stalked Crosby on instagram, hes a PT and has a page for it. He is into plyometric exercises which is great for fast twitch fibres IE speed and explosiveness. Hope he gets a few more of the boys into it.

Anyway without recruiting any stars or even established first graders i think its one of the more intriguing recruiting offseasons we've had in a long while. Could end up a bunch of solid reserve graders or we could have found a couple diamonds in the rough. Either way im pretty keen to see how these guys do in Cup.

 

[Goonji]

It’s great for Panthers to provide updates to its fans on our new signings for the 2026 Season. Just because they are not seasoned first graders or representative players doesn’t mean we’re not interested.

All very quiet from the club this off season.

The next offseason will be the interesting one. Time to make some hard decisions

Yeah interesting for different reasons. Im genuinely intrigued by some of these signings this year despite no nig names.

But to your point about hard decisions next offseason, I think the cup side this year will tell us a bit about what hard decisions they are considering. A lot of guys getting a chance to step up this year in cup. I noticed Jenson Tuaoi and Billy Scott both in the training photos, that might be the biggest question right there, who is going to progress to the back up hooker over the next 18 months.

Anyone know who the flegg hooker will be. Tuaoi or someone different?

It should be Tuaoi unless he is playing up in cup.

 

[Luke Bowden]

It should be Tuaoi unless he is playing up in cup.

He’ll most likely start in fleg and move into cup half way through the season.

I think it has all been terrific signings and to get rid of alot of dead wood in Cup is massive. These blokes who have come in from the warriors are bringing in a winning culture from last season. We going to be massive next season again. We also have Blaize and Casey who are going to benefit from another offseason.

My only concern is Dylan Edwards.

Massive year for Edgar to get physically up to NRL level.

Say Hassett moved to the Sharks.

I'd like to see Crosby playing edge backrow with his size and pace. Could be extremely damaging.
