Ben Teo rumour

[Apey]

Hearing rumours that he may be an under the radar signing.

Has anyone heard anything about this of the sort?

 

[Frederick]

We. Don't. Need. Any. More. Back. Rowers.


!!!

 

[Jono078]

What Fred said!

Also, Tigers would be f**king stupid to unload him and Hodgson.

 

[Apey]

He has potential, but do we need him? Probably not..

 

[Spike]

I can't see any truth to the rumour. Doesn't make any sense to be chasing another backrower and I doubt the Tigers would release him.

 

[Jono078]

Houston
Paterson
Simpson
Taia
Ciraldo
Taufua
Tupou
Ling

Just off the top of my head, so no we dont need him, I dont even think he is better than half of them guys, atleast not the top 4.

 

[Johns Magic]

I really rate Teo, huge amount of potential. I think he could be a real superstar in a few years time. He's huge, athletic, great ballskills, explosive, and only just turned 21.

If we signed him and pushed Simmo to the front-row it would only make our pack stronger.

 

[Jobdog]

If its true, there'll be no shortage of backrowers :crazy:

 

[otori]

Hasn't he played a lot of centre? Could be the centre signing .......

 

[perverse]

would he really offer much more at centre than anyone we currently have?

 

[League_God]

f**k ME!! BACKROWERS PLAYING CENTRE ARE SHORT TERM SOLUTIONS!@!!!
i have kept quiet about keith lulia for quiet sometime now.....but he offers little in attack.drops balls.throws silly passes. has improved defensively.
imo has no long term future as a centre.

 

[League_God]

next well be signing ryles to play centre for us.

 

[aqua_duck]

Maybe we're just trying to sign all the polynesians in the NRL

 

[League_God]

interesting theory.. certainly not going to disagree with you lol

 

[macavity]

according to SMH we are also chasing Heignington

would love him here

but no, we dont need more backrowers. also think he wont come here.

 

[perverse]

i don't get it, we already have a top shelf 2nd row. i rate heighington (however it's spelt...) massively, and would be happy to have him.. but the fact remains that we don't need him.

 

[Jono078]

Heighnington id love to have here.

It must mean a move for Simpson to the frontrow if we are still looking for backrowers though.

 

[Apey]

Yeah hardly a definite thing. The only reason I deemed it worth posting was because it was from someone who is working with the knights management (in some capacity)

could easily be a case of chinese whispers

 

[otori]

Heighington would have to be stupid to come here. We're probably not going to offer too much more money than either the Dragons or Panthers so money shouldn't be too much of a factor and he would have to work hard to start here over Taia, Paterson, Houston or Simpson. Plus the chance to get coached by Bennett is a massive lure for players.

 

[knights_86]

i rate teo, and even more so heighington, but we definitely dont need anymore backrowers. get rid of the doogs bros for next year and lets get ourselves a quality centre!
