Hoffman to Warriors

[Skinner]

STORM back-rower Ryan Hoffman has signed a massive deal to play out his career with the Warriors.

The veteran Hoffman signed a three-year deal with the Kiwi club and told team-mates of his decision this afternoon.


The Storm were keen to keep Hoffman and were prepared to cut tall Kiwi test forward Kevin Proctor loose to do so.


But now Hoffman has gone, the Storm may be able to retain Proctor.
Hoffman is a former NSW and Test forward and captained City against Country last weekend.

is this really necessary?

Only time will tell I guess:?

Such a dumb move... Here comes another Nielsen or Lowery...

I think Hoffman is a notch above those two.
But don't really agree with the move, our backrower stocks are pretty good.

 

[Skinner]

Another "veteran" dear god...

 

[Mixmasterreece]

Great player. You need players like Hoffman to win premierships.

Interested to see how he'll go.

(And he's not even comparable to Nielsen and The Todd)

 

[vvvrulz]

Michael Luck and Steve Price were veterans too.

I'm not going to bag the player until he gets a few games under the belt with the Warriors, but I do question the need for signing him up to start with.

Our management seems to be chasing the 'gritty experienced Australian' signing whether we necessarily need it or not.

 

[Mixmasterreece]

Another "veteran" dear god...

Yeah because our squad is over flowing with experience at the moment.

You'd boo the club if they signed Greg inglis

 

[MKEB...]

This to me says they are looking to cut Mateo and probably Sam Lousi. I could be wrong though.

Don't think I'd lose sleep over either. We have more than enough depth in the 2nd row now

Best signing since Steve price

Mateo probably deserves the sack after the pie binge, unless he turns it around and delivers on his potential. Which he may do and I hope he does.

Don't care less about Lousi.

 

[Rich102]

Watch Mateo's effort increase.

 

[MKEB...]

I do like the Hoffman signing, he is professional and consistant....and from the Hutt...even though he left as a kid

 

[Mixmasterreece]

To be fair I think this is more of an indication that Friend won't be offered a new deal. Hoffman is coming here to lead a defensive line.

 

[vvvrulz]

Watch Mateo's effort increase.

Usually Origin is the catalyst.

pie binge??.

the guy had knee surgery and couldnt do any cardio work:sarcasm::sarcasm:

Oh, for f**ks sake.

 

[Mixmasterreece]

Oh, for f**ks sake.

I'm sorry? Pretty factually correct.

 

[Skinner]

Factually correct......don't piss me off tool.
