A Christmas Present

[Yuly]

My turn to start a rumour and as a virgin rumourist please be gentle with me.
A representative forward will be returning to Saints for 2011. I got that from the player himself and I asked if it was public information and his remark was that part of a long term plan.
I won't divulge who it is but I am hoping he was fair dinkum.
Let the attacks begin and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Aaagh - if it's Ashton Sims I'm handing back my membership. My Bronco mates curse me every time they see him play....

 

[watatank]

Ashton Sims was actually my first guess and itd be a great deal if he brought his brothers with him.

 

[Willow]

Norm Provan?

 

[nrlnrl]

junior or senior rep player ?

 

[watatank]

I don't believe it myself but I shall run with it anyway. This place needs more discussion. Anyway compiling a list of possibilities...

The only players who seem to fit the criteria are

• Ashton Sims
• Lagi Setu
• Chris Houston (if NSW 18th man counts)

Other former Dragons who have played rep are..

• Brent Kite
• Luke Bailey
• Jason Ryles
• Justin Poore
• Ashton Sims
• Mark Riddell
• Michael Ennis
• Chase Stanley (maybe not considered a forward)

 

[Daniel Dragons]

When is Bull off contract?

 

[watatank]

Kite and Bailey's contracts end in 2010 but I can't find any reasonable reason why either would return.

 

[jpaciocco91]

I reckon it's Bailey...even though he initially signed to be a Tit Man for life

 

[j0nesy]

I'd be guessing Bailey or Kite. Most likely Bailey. Although I do find it hard to believe that we would match the salary that these guys are currently on.

 

[RedVDave]

Simon Woolford is comming to the rescue!

Others may include:

-Craig Fitzgibbon.
-Wayne Bartrim.
-Solomon Haumono.
-Nathan Long (finally back from his 2 week a hamstring injury).
-Brad Mackay.
-Quentin Pongia.
-Craig Smith.
-Lance Thompson.
-Shaun Timmins.

Norm Provan?

LMAO.

I was thinking Ken Kearney (posthumously).

How about Scott Gourley?

 

[Coppo_ForeverYOUNG]

My initial thought was Bull, he may want one year to end his carrer back home
form and injury permitting that is.
Will be quite interesting to see how this all unfolds next year.
Doubt it would be kite as i thought he wanted to return to canberra if he was to leave manly.

 

[watatank]

It doesn't really fit with the "part of the long term plan"

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

How about Scott Gourley?

Nah, Dad is enjoying retirement. His 2nd Row partner David Barnhill is looking for a gig though!

 

[Daniel Dragons]

haha, love David Barnhill!!!

 

[SilentAssassin]

Out of all the players mentioned I don't think I'd be interested in any of them.

Personally I think Bailey went to s*** when he went to the Titans. Not the same player he was at the Dragons imo.

 

[Steel Dragon]

Did Chris Leikvoll ever represent anything?
We need him back.

Did Chris Leikvoll ever represent anything?
We need him back.

I was just thinking i would mind seeing Leikvoll in the Red V but isnt he like mid 30's?
