Assuming we can’t afford to sign anyone new. What would be your solution if Brailey goes down?

umm, the 2 of the 4 hookers we have left in our system.

 

[sandshark]

Anyone remember a while back Manly signed a retired Steve Menzies on a $1 contract?
Our hooker answer is Gallen, come on you all know it to be true!

Menzies didn't end up doing that

Segeyaro did though. With us. Last year

Higano is on the loose & I reckon hes a great player.

If one is Woolford, we would have to sign him as he is not contracted to us. If Paterson plays x amount of games due to injury don’t we also have to pay for that, I could be wrong there though.

I agree with you that makes more sense, but it may be outside the realm of possibility. Personally, I don’t have an answer and really hope it doesn’t come to having one or we are up a certain creek. But if you had to Chad wouldn’t be the worst option but I can see Magoo, Wade or sorenson getting the gig also

I think this season is based on hope with so many young players in the squad.

The Club is hoping so many young players will step up to another level this season.

It’s exciting but also scary as it could very well go tits up especially if we lose some experienced old heads for an extended period.

But I’m backing the team to be competitive and I think we’ll see plenty of exciting football and I’d be surprised if we don’t make the 8.

Is he the raiders snorkel that carved us up a couple times last year. Nuggety little faker?

 

[Defer to the coifed]

that him. Purged.

 

[Mr Angry]

I think Frenzy means Havili.

Hingano is built like Johnson.

I think you thinking of mason Lino. He was a the raiders at one point

My mistake. Thats who I meant

 

[lolesi]

My mistake. Thats who I meant

in fairness, hingano isn’t a bad player as well

had some bad luck with injuries though

 

[myrrh ken]

Kurt the Baptiste is off contract ...

 

[snout]

Hate that merkin.
He cost me a huge multi on the final leg a few years at raiders.

Still not over it

Looks like Josh Morris going to the Roosters this season is inevitable.

Article in the SMH today stating the Sharks want compensation for the money they have paid so far in his last year of his contract and to keep Morris in the early rounds until Moylan is fit.

No player compensation talked about probably because our salary cap is rooted and the 350k deduction to our salary cap because of the salary cap breach.

Embarrassing on a lot of levels - NRL for letting this circus go on and the Sharks, just for being Perceived as weak, when really they have been painted into a corner by the player, manager and magnet on the moral compass being the roosters

 

[Dragon Slayer]

Is there a lesson to be learnt from the Club?

Bloody oath there is.

Do not sign players with bad injury histories , bad character and unreliable attitudes to inflated 4 year contracts and expect those traits to dramatically change.

4 year deals to the likes of Dugan and Moylan was stupidity at the highest.

It has farked up our cap with little in return from either.

Thankfully listening to John Morris recently the main criteria going forward in recruitment will be character.
