Pearce .... is he coming ... yes or no ?

Daly Cherry Evans has unselfishly volunteered a positional switch to five-eighth to pave the way for Mitchell Pearce’s signing at the Sea Eagles.

Pearce insists he wants to play at No.7 and has been given that guarantee by Sea Eagles coach Trent Barrett with the blessing of DCE, according to Manly sources.

The Sea Eagles have been in talks with Pearce since early October when it was first revealed the Sydney Roosters had prioritised Cooper Cronk as their next major signing.

The way Barrett coaches, Cherry Evans would control one side and Pearce the other.

Everything lining into place. Only hurdle is the NRL approving the back-ended deal.

Just saw a report on the Storm making an offer to Pearce. That would be fantastic is it actually happened, I reckon it would weaken them significantly. Rugby League would be the winner.

From that link about Jimmy

England winger Jermaine McGillvary says an NRL contract would be a dream come true.

McGillvary has scored six tries in four World Cup games and is in the running to be named player of the tournament.

And he’s caught the eye of plenty of people Down Under.

“If it comes I’ll definitely look at it because it’s something I want to do,” McGillvary told Channel Seven of a possible NRL offer.

“I like a big test, and to try myself out against the best players in the world would be a dream come true.

“See what happens after the World Cup.”

McGillvary has three seasons to run on his Huddersfield contract and has a young family in England.
Sign him, he was their best player.

Had a laugh reading an article in the paper today.

Matty John’s trying to convince Pearce to join Newcastle.

John’s: You’ll love it up here. The locals will really get behind you.

Pearce: I’m a bit worried about everything resting on my shoulders. It’s a young side.

John’s: No they’ve bought a lot of experience. Jacob Lilyman, Aiden Guerra and Chris Heighnington.

Haha that’ll tip him over to sign for the Knights.

Bahahahaha!!

Wasnt a week went by in the 80s without a band which is now termed iconic passing thru and gracing one of the workers clubs.

If we have a few $$$ left for Pearce, if we miss out on him, might be worthwhile trying to get Elgey or Lamb to the club
