Knights side for 2008

"Come to Newcastle, Play alongside Carmont"

Doesn't quite have the same ring to it

Ah, but "Come to Newcastle, Play alongside Carmont, have a cookie" might do the trick :-k

I think we all need to be realistic in that we will probably only get one "big name" signing if at all. Maybe I'm playing devil's advocate here, but with Johns not being here anymore, the "wow" factor of playing alongside him is gone. I have no doubt that Mullen,Walsh and Dureau will do the job in the halves for us. What we really need is a good quality front rower and a good quality centre. We can just about cover everything else.

 

[Jono078]

I really think we can get Brent Kite and Justin Hodges..

Money talks. And we will surely have 800k to throw at them 2 alone.

eeeww.....

 

[Frederick]

O Meley signed wit the Chooks I think

Was anything officially announced? :?
Maybe it's gonna be like the Wayne Bennett thing last year, where it was all over the papers and tv before anything was actually signed, so maybe we've still got a shot at O'Meley :?

Is he going to play injuried all season?

 

[keeney]

I would love to have Hodges, but it isn't gonna happen.

If we get 2 of these players, preferably 3, I'll be ecstatic.

1. Matai
2. Kite
3. Wing
4. Mick Monaghan
5. Joel Clinton
6. L O'D

There are a few others, but god just for once I'd love us to sign a quality player.

Apparently there's rumours around that LOD's hamstring injury is going to rule him out for the whole year, and it almost ended his career or something. Would we want to invest in an expensive risk? (Yes, I realise we did with Joey, but LOD is not Joey )

No. Especially when we will probably have

11. Simpson
12. Paterson
13. Abraham

Next year, that is perfectly fine for me.

Source? They're rumours. Stuff that other people have posted on here that may or may not have come from a credible source. I'd find where I read it, but cbf'd sorting through thousands of posts

NORTH Queensland's premiership hopes have been dealt a devastating blow with Australia second rower Luke O'Donnell to undergo season-ending surgery tomorrow.

O'Donnell will fly to Sydney later today and go under the knife tomorrow after MRI scans revealed his left hamstring had become detached from his pelvic bone.

The New South Wales Origin star suffered the injury midway through the first half of Saturday night's thrilling 25-24 win over Wests Tigers at Dairy Farmers Stadium.


He was the victim of a gang tackle gone wrong when his left leg twisted awkwardly.


Cowboys chief executive Peter Parr said O'Donnell's teammates were devastated when the rugged back rower broke the news to them this morning.

OUCH

 

[Frederick]

Yeah, was just reading that.

 

[perverse]

that would have really.. really hurt..


.. like.. a lot.

wouldn't be surprised if his season was over.

 

[Misanthrope]

Burns isn't a bad idea, really. He's a good young half who can defend, and he'll struggle to hold down a spot in a Manly side that has Orford, Monaghan, Lyon, and Ballin on the books. Was a star for them last year, and with Mullen he could form a halves pairing that'll stick together for a few years yet.

Kite wouldn't be bad, either. Our front row has lacked mongrel since time immemorial, and he's the kind of guy who could bring some.

 

[Yosh]

F**k that would of hurt man. Oh... and my source comment. I just wrote that because someone was bound to ask it and I thought I would be the first... hehe...
