Corey Norman??

[dragonssamy61]

It should take 3-4 months recovery and rehab for an athlete. If he had a desk job probably only 3-4 weeks. Is he at training?

Drag hes been training for about a month.
But he has not started full contract yet.
Everything sould be ok.
He seems to be progressing well.

Had his surgery Sept or Oct, back at training but obviously full training after New Year. But my surprise was quite a few on here talking his career at NRL is about over because of his shoulder..as a reason for him going back home which is shooting for the stars for a justification.
If it was Widdop's 3rd or 4th reco on the same shoulder then yeh it may be all over..but Geez even Cronk may play for another year or 2 and is 6 years older?

Now I do not know the reasons but I will guess offer to good to refuse in ESL when he is ready..2020?

Looks like Kurt is gone

I hope he kills it up here in Newcastle tbh. Dogged from the get-go by Mary. I moved this way about 18 months ago and I have to say watching local teams up this way is fun. I've even been to a couple of round ball games. My only beef with Mann is he can be a bit of a ball hog. I noticed this with the Cutters, and a couple of his NRL games. I'm confident that Brownie could indeed mark him as a very good hooker. I wish him well Xx

That's a good sign Samy. I'd still be taking it slowly for the next month regarding contact etc. He's a pretty fit guy but I don't want to push him. He'll know when he's ready I guess.

You obviously know more than I do. I would hazard a guess that St Helens, Warrington or Leeds would be chasing him?

Not to mention dollar conversion & tax breaks, when he finally retires & converts back to Aus$

Coach Brownie will have Mann playing as good at hooker as Coach Mary has our centres playing.

That's positive EA in the forwards and Lomax RC.
Sounds good to me.

Don't see how EA fits into our forward pack. We are stacked!

I posted earlier that a very top guy at the Club feels he has reached his limit playing in the centres, so I guess that's the next move.

Wikipedia now has Jennings signing with Catalans Dragons...

I'm more of the opinion that Mann will make a good fist of the hooking role. I wouldn't be surprised if within a couple of years he will compete for the SOO hooker spot.

I'd say Brown runs rings around Mary as a coach.

 

[Forster Dragon]

Brownie has a good footy brain.I am not sure Mary has a brain.

Drag

So all good drag.

A pay war between St George Illawarra and Parramatta is keeping negotiations of a release for Corey Norman at bay, with both parties refusing to budge on their offers.

The Eels are willing to chip in for part of Norman's lucrative $900,000 a year deal, however the Dragons are demanding them to dip further into their pocket.

I don't want Norman at all !

The ceiling on Norman is extremely high but jeez his floor is low.

 

[The calm one]

The ceiling on Norman is extremely high but jeez his floor is low.

I stated this last night in a previous thread that this was happening. If the Dragon use there brains they shouldn't raise there offer. After all if Parramatta want to get rid of him, what else are they going to do?

I asked old mate who told me last night that this was going on and he has no idea what % the dragons expect the eels to pay.
