Thanks for the info betcats, although according to Panthers' Media Manager he is a Windsor Wolves signing rather than a Panthers signing. I might end up putting him on the list though, not sure. :?

Do you have any information on under 20's player contracts?
No I don't mate, sorry. :(
The only info I have is info I find through googling. Unfortunately the only information that is really ever published is information about first-grade players.

Thanks murraymob! :D
They've been added.
Hopefully Panther Daz stops by this thread soon too; he also seems to be a great source of information when it comes to Penrith's Lower Grade sides. :cool:

The departure of Iselin makes me even more worried about next season... if either Graham or Walsh are injured, do we have any other NATURAL five-eighths or halfbacks capable of filling in? (Besides Sammut, who you could argue is a natural five-eighth).

Penrith sign:
- Adrian Purtell
- Setamana Sa
- Kevin Kingston

Sa and Kingston yes.

Purtell..f**k NO!

If that slow, useless merkin signs for us, i'll scream.

That'd be two NUFFY backs that have signed for us that Noone else in the league wants, but we sign em anyway...and he wont even be cheap...he'll be rubbish.

Another player with hands like feet and absolute garbage.

Sa can't tackle but at least can attack.

Why do we always target these sh*t outside backs that can't crack it at other clubs but they thing...even under the current coaching ranks..they can crack it under us?...Purtell is god damn useless. There is a reason fans call him Turtle...his slow and goes into his shell when the pressure is on.

f**king prick would compete with Covell for slowest winger in the competition honours.

Pity to lose Blackett, Geoff and Junior.

I'm pretty sure they will find greener pastures in elsewhere.

Craig Trindall is still going strong, Im sure Im not the only one who would love to see him have another crack at firsts. Its been too long between drinks for him. He's very capable.

As for the signings, I like Laurie while Simmons is hot and cold, worth a shot.

Luke Lewis is tied up for the longest, yes, I understand that he is one of the most underestimtaed players in the comp. Im still upset he changed his mind about Souths, but I dont wish him any harm for that. Hes a kangaroo, thats special. Id love to see him play near the top of his best for the next three years. A wonderful player, blood worth bottling.

Given the dissapointing end to this season, the direction could be to try to mix the first team up with a few shock selections from the Wolves. No more auto-selections, except my fave Panther, Civo.

I heard that Civo was the first guy selected in the Australian Squad after Locky, few greater honours available.
