Matt Dufty

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

Not sure why people are saying Hynes will go back to Queensland as he’s from the central coast & played juniors with manly. Hopefully he’s looking at moving closer to home. He’s also a keen surfer so living in the gong shouldn’t be an issue with him.

Good thing with him is that if 1 doesn’t work out we have an outstanding 5/8 option.

 

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

I hope it wasn’t over big Josh McGuires legs .

Would explain why he punched Dufty in backplay. Co-incidence? I think not.

My take on Hynes is that I expect Cronulla to throw half their cap at him, my club are chasing him too but as I said, I fully expect Cronulla to throw everything they can at him

The whole reason they shafted Morris was for a coach who can recruit a big name, if they miss out on Hynes after missing out on Reynolds, I don't know where that will leave them

Are you saying that Cronulla are planning to play Hynes at half-back?

If that's the case, and you may be right, then Hynes will have to choose between Griffin and Fitzgibbon.

Now, Fitzy may well be the next Robinson, but he isn't established.

He is suggesting 5/8

no noise out of Cronulla on this, however there was no noise on McInness either, so who knows

5/8 or fullback, looks like he could fill either role quite comfortably.

Jezzus H Chrust ! Don’t go throwing the sausages out in the bin until you have actually bought that juicy T-bone steak to replace it .

They have given the Duff his marching orders so as to - wait for it “ enter the race for Nico Hynes “ . They have not signed him as off yet , but are going to enter the race along with gawd knows how many other clubs .

The Dragons must be supremely confident of coming first in this race , why else would they release our only potent attacking weapon . I hope for their sakes that their expectations of landing his signature are fulfilled otherwise we will be in all sorts of trouble next season .

Dragons doing what they do best. Going out to sign Nico Hynes and coming back with Marcia Hines

How is she under the high ball though?

Would be good under the low balls .... Me thinks ....

I can see how this might pan out .... Duff walks they end up with no one ....

Dugan?

They are already strong in FB and 5/8 with Kennedy, Moylan and Johnston- 1/2 back is their Achilles Heel- thus the Reynolds move. Don't understand how Hynes will help with that.

 

[Illusion]

Dugan?

Its on the cards mate .....

 

[Auntie.Gerald]

classic negotiation

we say we are going for Hynes
We are

We get Hynes at a good price for $450k pa and he can play FB, 5/8 or centre

Then we say to Duff do you want to stay for $350k pa

Done deal and perfecto we have options and good ones!!

Would have been better twenty years ago

He is the best attacking player that we have had for years and Hook doesn't Know how or where to use him ?

If Ramsey kills it weekend what do we all think then?
