Rumoured and Confirmed Signings and even More Crap VI

[Avenger]

The signing of Hinchcliffe should be announced this week.

The signing of Hinchcliffe should be announced this week.

That's good considering we don't have either an 80 minute hooker, or indeed a backup hooker atm.

I don't think he's coming here to play off the bench Suity. He will be the starting hooker.

[boxhead]

Great development!
He would be an astute acquisition.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

Is he any good?

 

[booligal bill]

Interesting if the Hinchcliffe deal is done. What is Keatings contract status?

 

[bartman]

He did ok in our lower grades back in the day. We're lacking a back-up hooker option for 2013 with Casey's demise, not that Kearney has seen fit to use a hooker rotation on the bench...

 

[strider]

it is interesting - keating has been improving and he seemed to be one of SKs favourites

Keating is part of the leadership group and does post-game interviews with SK, so you'd think his position in the 13 is safe?

Signed to end of 2013 I believe.

Thanks Ricky.

[Avenger]

Thanks Ricky.

Suity

That's Mr Stuart to you.

Agree 100%. A very strange signing.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

We are going to need at least a couple of top line props with Fui and Poore more than likely leaving. Can he play prop?

 

[booligal bill]

Could it be Hinchcliffe could start in the back row and just used as insurance in the dummy half role

Is the implication of the banter between Avenger and Suitman that Ricky Stuart will be our coach next season?
Colour me confused, I thought Kearney had the full support of the board :sarcasm:

I hope Keating isn't relegated to NSW Cup if Hinchcliffe does indeed sign; I have been very impressed with him under Kearney. The problem is that Keating has shown in the past that his form suffers when he starts off the bench.....but he did well when interchanging with Kingston so I don't see why he can't do it again.
He might even be an option in the second row to replace Hindmarsh?
(Sorry if that is too bold a statement.)

I would imagine so. The storm use him in the 2nd row hey? I don't know much about him.

Like McQuire?

Yep, I reckon that's on, because I'd be surprised if we see Casey again in the B + G.

Why so negative re. Hinchcliffe last year in the city country game he outshone Farah did he not...He is a solid footballer coming from a team with a winning culture..
