New recruits for 2023

[justadragon]

We can’t take a trick in recruitment. It all looked good and now goes to shit.

We would have done the same thing, we were refusing to let Sullivan and Sloan go. Its impossible to believe anything until it actually happens, one minute they want out and a transfer, the next they want to stay, its just clickbait

 

[blacksafake]

they would release him because they're under salary cap pressure, and they want to promote a young hooker that deserves to be playing first grade

You say they would let him go but “Will” they

 

[ground zero]

But but Manly pursued Saab till he broke his contract.

Would that be Gordon Chan Kum Tong or Nathaniel Roache? I like that Gordon Tong, he is nippy and is a tyrant just like Toovey.

They'll ask for a player swap, maybe a jayden hunt? or like a young outside back? Not sure about manly's depth.

That's what I thought about our pack but looks like i'm wrong, could be the same with our depth

Shaw did.

They used all the tricks in the book including Saab talking to the press and hey presto.

Saab looked like a goose however, it worked.

Getting our hopes up when this was mentioned a couple of weeks or so ago is now looking a dead duck at Manly beach. I guess it was too good to be true.

Why would Manly even contemplate losing a promising front rower who still is contracted to the club for 2 more years and they say Fifita wants to stay.

New recruits, rumours call it what you want that's all it's been. We want but we don't get anything that is something.

This is reminding me of the Suli saga- took us forever to land him because Moses initially didn't want to leave Des and his Polynesian bros-but then realised that Des was never going to give him the recognition he wanted- here we have an agent (Tartak) with dollar signs in his eyes, trying to engineer the move apparently against the wishes of at least one of the two (Fifita). Agents tend to get what they want- eventually-particularly when they have other top shelf clients at the same club-as Tartak does. The club needs them onside. Watch this space.

redandwhite4evr, I've got my fingers (and toes) crossed. And, I'm standing on my head. That should do it.

Reported in Tele today we're getting the 2 young forwards from Manly and they're getting g AARON WOODS in exchange immediately!
How good is that!

Seems like it is happening according to Daily Telegraph for a swap with Aaron Woods for the two young sea eagles. No joke.

best day of my life!

If Ryan Webb has orchestrated this trade, then the man is seriously too brilliant to be wasting away in the game of rugby league. Put him in charge of negotiating a Russian withdrawal from Ukraine.. or a peace deal between Palestine and Israel. Amazing stuff. What a win

I’m off to Sydney this morning then off to Hawaii & have a smile on my dial. This news has broadened that smile by about 4m. Best news I’ve heard for a while.

Stoooopid Eagles

Surely this cant be true, that would put Manly in the total idiotic sector of Boards, even above the Dragons Board. I thought we just had xmas.

Please God be true…..we have suffered enough!

 

[Dragonslayer]

Said a while ago that Manly are under huge salary cap pressure. Even if we are paying for Woods freight, and if Buzz isn't having a 'senior' moment then that deal is crazy good. Manly also have another young gum they are desperate to hold on to and will need some $$ to do so.

NA NA NA NA .....NA NA NA NA HEY HEY GOODBYE
From all reports Woodsey is a fab guy , but will go down as one of our very worst purchases , at this stage of his career .
Lets get this official before the Corks start popping......

 

[VodkaSaint]

Aaron woods gone,
Massive loss for the Dragons

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

Aaron woods gone,
Massive loss for the Dragons

Agree, who is coming down with me to the Leagues Club and protesting this trade to try and stop it....
