Iron Lion has mentioned nothing about us signing Taumalolo. Based on his track record, I can say with complete confidence that I look forward to seeing him in a Warriors jersey next year.

Sigh. Apparently lost out on Merrin as well. The last two central forward targets I'd really be looking at are JWH (who is apparently committed to signing a new deal at the Roosters) and Tom Burgess (can't see him coming over, but at this point we might as well try). Nate Myles & Paul Gallen there also, but can't see them coming either and I'm not really 100% sure I want either (great players, plenty of baggage).

I'm left thinking that if we really do have money there for two marquee signings maybe it's time to stop limiting ourselves to what we really need and just try to make a bloody splash with one of them... go offer DCE more than the Titans to play with SJ. It's unlikely to happen, but at least try. Or perhaps go in hard for Israel Folau? We need one of these to stick to make players take notice... something absolutely nuts. How about making Kieran Read a ridiculous offer? :lol:

Either that or go to Warrington and ask how much to release Chris Hill... and whatever the stupidly high fee (and his resultantly high wages) are, just pay it. Just frustratedly casting around here.

Warriors have come in late and thrown 1.5mil a year at DCE.
Johnson will be moved to 5/8

Johnson plays 5/8 now - just in a 7 jersey.
Why not just move Townsend to 7? He is better organised than Johnson and better under pressure.

You know you are doing it tough when you can't get born and breed to come home for big bickies!!!
Are we making offers in NZ dollars? :)
For an may have a media future in Aussie, but doubt JT did or does.

Both family reasons I'd wager? Certainly Foran was never leaving Sydney with a young family who are settled. And he went to primary school over there, so hardly Kiwi bred.

My estimation of JT has gone up immeasurably. Loyalty at that cost is very admirable.

I will give Iron Lion one thing, he made me realize some things about myself. You cant lie to the world about yourself ..... who would imagine a thread about player rumors would bring those feelings out ... well here it is ......God I wish the Warriors would sign the NRL's first openly gay player. That would be the day I proudly wave my warriors flag and buy a season ticket. To me that would mean more than winning an NRL title, more than being the best club in the NRL. A club that embraces men achieving all they can be - as brothers, brothers of love. Sure the alcohol may be talking far to much for me right now but dam it, who wouldn't want to practice ball skills with Shaun Johnson ?

Latest rumour:

Warriors making a play for Izzy Folou. He is off contract this year & has a Kiwi GF. He could fill in at FB (Tompkins and TL to return to Wigan) or troublesome centre spot.

Add Izzy to the missed high profile recruitment list ...

Foran, Merrin, Matai, JT's (both of them), Carney etc.
