Interesting mate... I didnt think we were that close to Cronk.. So we were a TPA away ?
Not doubting your sources at all, as I dont know.

PS, By surprise I hope you dont mean Sandow :)

No not Sandow, but Cronk wants to come to Sydney to be with his partner, journos were saying that he would be re-signing with the storm weeks ago and nothing has happened, the storm want him to stay with them but my guess is that if he comes to terms with a Sydney club the storm will want Keary, so maybe others are on hold until Cronk decides his future.

Interesting to read, but Cronk is definitely re-signing with the Storm & this will be confirmed soon. He is is no hurry to announce it & is concentrating on SOO when necessary, so that has an impact. I know that Tamou's deal was announced today, but as others have mentioned, the 10-day calling off period applied as he was leaving his current club. Cooper Cronk isn't.

Yep, exactly. He will probably get payed more as a bench player at the Broncos then as a starting player at the Saints. Of course, Doust still thinks players should sign for less for having the privilege of playing in the Red V.

More to do with genuine interest in Segeyaro than gossip.
Clubs haven't exactly been beating his door down. Seems a lot of 'Caveat Emptor' with this lad and many clubs have baulked.

Yes, perhaps. Rumours are rumours. There is a fear of being stuck with the status quo in the hooking and halfback department with no improvement for next season for us though, hence the interest in his status. The question mark over Segeyaro's quality are warranted on his recent form and the buyer should beware. Same can be said of Keary as well.

For what it's worth, Courier-Mail reporting Keary has been talking up his value to Craig Bellamy & that James Segeyaro WON'T be moving to the Broncos.

That's got nothing to do with it, Keary actually would like to stay at Souths but he missed his opportunity trying to find more $$$, I don't know if he will land at the dragons or the storm. Dragons had Cronk almost locked up but the 3pa fell over and it didn't come to fruition, there's still some things to play out yet involving other clubs and players, you'll end up with someone but I'm not sure who it will be, could be a complete surprise.

Sorry but Keary is all done at dragons. 2017. Not this year. Cronk was never realistic.

It will not be the end of the world should Keary not sign.I am sure that should this not happen it would be to his detriment and that with the closing of this door another will most certainly open.I am not that confident he is that much better option than what we already have available.

It looks like the Keary merry-go-round is stopping at Bondi, that could be interesting for the playing future of Jackson Hastings though.

So we get the least player that we want......our club is getting worse if this is true.

Lol the roosters now want him... Kearys manager is a genius. Simply putting it out there in media to at the last hurdle force dragons to pay more (pay overs).
