2010 MWSE Rumoured Signings

[Sea Eagle Scuba]

We've decided to steal a concept off the NRL forum, but instead of all the other clubs being involved, this is Manly related rumours only. So guys and girls, if you hear anything, feel free to post it in "Manly Sea Eagles Rumoured Signings" for all to see. Oh and btw, one of my mates within the Manly club will be joining this forum very soon so we'll all be able to get a bit of inside goss from within the club

Ok I'll start it off. IF and IF Craig Fitzgibbon gets released by the Roosters. (they want to release him and he wants to leave, cept he already signed one year deal, but they are trying to negotiate a deal)

Craig Fitzgibbon ---> Manly

BK- to make every Manly fan happy and re-sign for 1 year. It's a dream but at least I'm not the only one dreaming it.

 

[domdom]

i think everyone is dreaming it. i doubt we'd fit him under the cap next season if he did (especially if we sign another forward). maybe max can give him a job as a debt collector after next season.

he still has heaps to give, just see his effort against souths!

 

[Sea Eagle Scuba]

He was playing injured and still outclassed every other forward from Manly. I think Manly needs to get rid of specific players in the team including;
Jason King ----------> Replace with George Rose, and bring Adam Cuthbertson or Mailangi Styles onto the bench and
Shayne Dunley ----------> Give young Matt Ballin a shot as he has much to prove.

John Wilkin, St Helens --> Manly
John Williams, Parramatta --> Manly

 

[Sea Eagle Scuba]

I hope your right Disco. I really do.

 

[Disco]

i dont think we'll get Williams

Apparently Wilkin was both our and newies backup plan, depending what simpson done, now that simpson re-signed, we look like moving on Wilkin

Wilkin easily has the brightest future out of all the 2nd rowers in the ESL, IF we were to sign him - I'd be over the moon.

As for Williams - Meh?

 

[Sea Eagle Scuba]

Yeah i think Manly should make a play at Jon Wilkin. Realistically guys, how much do you think Jon Wilkin is worth? $250,000 ?????

 

[eagles_of_prey]

No chance for John Williams ??

 

[Sea Eagle Scuba]

Very unlikely to be perfectly honest.

 

[blocker6969]

apparently according to someone i know of this site,manly HAVE signed frank pritchard

 

[blocker6969]

jamie lyon=manly

 

[Sea_Eagles_Rock]

Pritchard has signed with the Panthers again I think. Quite some time ago.

Yup, the deal is done and dusted!

 

[Sea Eagle Scuba]

Jack Afamasanga ---> Manly

Two of Parramattas main men on this forum have said it. So its worth being mentioned in the Rumoured Signings.

 

[Sea Eagle Scuba]

Another rumoured signing.

Neville Costigan ----> Manly

From an article I read this morning:
"Wests Tigers and Manly were among the clubs last night being linked with Costigan, while the Cowboys are reportedly interested in the backrower/hooker as well as halfback Seymour"

 

[Disco]

i'd be happy with both Afamasaga and Costigan

 

[Sea Eagle Scuba]

Likewise, although I think Manly needs to try to sign a young prop. Someone like Dave Taylor from the Qld Cup. That kid's only very young and has a HUGE future!

Not a chance in the world. He is all wrapped up with the Broncos.
