Hmm very.

Seems they might be having an outside back clean out.

Weird when it's been their strength.

We've lost Dugan (and therefore moved Robinson from the 3/4 line to fullback), fergo could be out for awhile and earl is off to France next year. We are desperate for backup 3/4s because right now we are an injury away from random under 20s.

Toupo is more about this year with lee and fergo out for possibly months. We aren't releasing wighton early lmao

It's not that I don't think he goes alright it's just that we need quality centres / wingers to complete out team.

I'd rather see our spare $ spent on that, or bring some young forwards through.
RLW Mole reckons 100% you'll get SKD. I have no idea why you'd be after Asotasi either. That's why I was shocked when I was told but you've made an offer - not sure how much it is.

Asotasi is a good idea. If we had any young guys worthy of playing prop they would have been in firsts by now instead of toops and Gal being used in the front row. We havnt seen bryce all year and for a while there Rossy was looking off the pace. Fafita cant do it on his own.

No to Roy from me.
Turn David Fafita into copy of Andrew.

Gal, Fafita x2 and Gibbs is a bloody good rotation.

We are more focused on internal talent rather than that outside the club at the moment. Coaches don't rate outside backs currently on the market - fair enough, too.

Also fair to say they're quite annoyed - stunned - at losing mini Peach, too.

You can't turn something into something they are not. David is a French div 2 player. Probably best at NSWcup. If you are happy with that as a prop, dont be.

And spell his god damn name right.

A different story is painted. They drew a line in the sand on Peachey.

Let's just say I will be very, very, very surprised if that happens. Because it won't.

Why not? Alot of people are expecting this to happen. What's changed in the last 24hours?

Izzy deciding to stay with Rugby. The Rooster now don't need to make room for him.

In the works before Izzy. Don't forget Tatua Moga, Michael Oldfield and their 20's centre currently ripping it up.

Add to the fact that the puppets pulling the strings want to release him.

Time will tell, I guess, but I have been told by reliable sources SKD will remain at the Roosters. And definitely not coming to the Sharks. Besides, Moga's defence wouldn't stand up to first grade as a centre, either.

Don't shoot the messenger...

I'm not mate, alls good.

But I am more confident in signing SKD than anyone else we have been linked with.

No dramas. Just thought I'd tell you both sources I've spoken to - at the two different clubs - have told me it definitely won't be happening.

I thought Moga and Oldfield were on their way out?

Could be wrong but I thought that Moga was very keen to head back to NZ and play with the Warriors.

Asotasi is old news. He had agreed to terms already once this year when the ASADA stuff first hit.
