Now here we go from the sharks so hard it is but i think maybe say goodbye to the Peach he has been great for us but age is now against him, and his legs maybe getting on, lets flick Franze, Kent, Rieck, we should resign only Gallen, yes Greg Bird the potential will be there next year, i can see sully going, now who to we go after, this is long list but if we dont try we will end up with no one

Brent Tate: we should test the water
Casy McGuire: could use him like Sully
Joel Monaghan: big fast outsde back what we need no small wingers
Alex Chan: tough does not take backward step and big
Clint Newton: honest & tough
Michael Ennis: young could be a very good player
Eric Grothe: Our new fullback believe we could do a Michinello with him
Lee Hopkins: great back up player any position can cover
Frank Pritchard: look what he did to us enough evidence
Paul Stringer: big prop hopefully over injures
Jamie Russo: another good back player and kick goals add to our depth
Jason Ryles: SOO player lets have a crack
Tony Jensen: backrower like Bails will add speed and penetration
Ryan Cross: classy centre would take pressure off Vagana
Peter Cusack: Big yardage gainer no mistake footballer
Luke Covell: Big Winger like Mellor can kick goals i believe this is our wing
Gray Viane: we nearly got him this year, lets see if we can get him cheap

A big list wont get them all but we can get some premership winning team, lets hear from you all

 

[Genius Freak]

Cusack is going to Souths.
I wouldn't give Covell the time of day.
Ryles is always injured.
Hopkins, Jensen, Russo, McGuire, Newton. No thanks.

Short of that not a bad list.

Mine would include El Masri, Glenn Morrisson and George Carmont.

 

[Marty Moose]

we should aim for Dykes, Long, Treister, and perhaps a call to mellor and Mckenna to boot :mrgreen:

 

[King of the Hill]

That Rene Maitua was OK for the Dogs at 5/8 the other night replacing that pathetic hack Anasta

BTW Ryles has re-signed with the Dragons for 3 years.

 

[Generalzod]

Darren Lockyer now there's a player we should go for....................

 

[Genius Freak]

I'll chuck in ten bucks to pay for him.

 

[King of the Hill]

I'll buy him a beer at the first preso

 

[imasharkie]

What about Fui Fui Moi Moi he's huge and according to parra supporters the next big thing.............yeah right

 

[madunit]

Skandalis resigned with Wests for 2 years.

Whatever you do, don't go for another failed Tigers winger/centre in Nick Bradley Qalilawa.

He is f**king hopeless at best.

 

[JemimaPuddleduck]

what hasn't been reported from Big League is that Mr Rogers has said thy have the cash to be significant players in the market

we have 40% of our top 25 still unsigned.

BL says the Sharks are just waiting till July 1 to get active.

Aim high, target the best of the list says the duck

 

[King of the Hill]

God bless that Duck.

 

[Nullajet]

SIGN PEACH & GALLEN FIRST!!!

 

[Dr. Funkenstein]

we will not let peachey go. he is and inspirational player and we need him

 

[Sharkie73]

This is my wish list


David Peachey - One more Year
Paul Gallen - Should be resigned.
Darren Lockyer - 5/8 then fullback when Peach retires ( Aitken to 5\8 when Lockyer moves to Fullback )
Paul Stringer - To replace Stevo when he retires.
Brent Tate - In the centres with Vagana

 

[blacktip-reefy]

Peachey 200k
Gallen 150-200k
lockyer 350-400k
Stringer 300k
Tate 250k

Total
1.4 million

BK 400k
Stevo 330k
Merrit 180k

New total 2.3 miilion

That leaves around 1 million for our other 17 players

 

[Booyah]

That Rene Maitua was OK for the Dogs at 5/8 the other night replacing that pathetic hack Anasta

BTW Ryles has re-signed with the Dragons for 3 years.

Reni is a machine. He just needs more game time. Sadly, he also re-signed with the Dogs again this week for another few years.

He's a Souths Junior too.

 

[JemimaPuddleduck]

Peachey 200k
Gallen 150-200k
lockyer 350-400k
Stringer 300k
Tate 250k

Total
1.4 million

BK 400k
Stevo 330k
Merrit 180k

New total 2.3 miilion

That leaves around 1 million for our other 17 players

Mr Peachey 200k minus 50% discount (up to a max of 100k) for 10 years service = 100k

leaves 1.1 mill for remaining 17

= $64,705 each

in light of earlier news in the week sounds about right

one question from the duck for you Mr blacktip-reefy. How much is your Estimate on Mr Nutley?

 

[Connections]

Darren Lockyer now there's a player we should go for....................

i think brisbane will fight for him

 

[imasharkie]

Darren Lockyer now there's a player we should go for....................

i think brisbane will fight for him

Lockyers contract negoitiations have been put back until next week and Brent Tate is looking at massive offers from Parra and Manly and a decision will be made next week

 

[Foz]

I'd have a look at Stephen Kearney for a year.
We need a running second rower (a young one) but its getting to the stage we aren't going to get one unless the Penrith kid comes through.
Galloway has been a touch disappointing but he is still a baby really.
I wouldnt mind paying Kearney a few bucks because the kids could learn a thing or two from him and the old fella still goes ok.
Hard to see him playing for anyone else in the NRL other than Melbourne but who knows?
He was tipped to go to the UK but I havent heard anything.
Anyone?
