Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[Kilkenny]

But who is left? Walker stayed for under what we offered. The other guys we were rumoured to be after still aren’t moved on so leads me to think were bad deals.

The squad has improved. I can’t see Tamou getting $800k again so gives us cap space to fill that hole if someone comes available... Assuming one of the young guys don’t have a breakout year and fill that hole

First of all Tamou is not and was never on 800K.

Secondly, we should have been more creative in our pursuit of a decent outside back.

Possibly although I’m hearing Souths are frontrunners for Mitchell right now, I doubt they will get both.

I don’t think we do right now. Maybe there’s a little bit of cash, but we’d need to move Whare on (and maybe even someone else)

us staying out of the Mitchell circus is helpful right but it is Weidler story so likely BS

What have you heard he’s on?

We had to lure him away from another club, and he was a SOO & Australian rep, has to be good coin.

True, it will be hard to move Whare on as well. Maybe we should start calling some super league clubs

well whatever he is on he will get a cut

Again only Marsters moved so far so where are these backs moving around

Now I think of it if we did try and sign JAC, you’d be looking to move on Mansour. We’re short at centre and at the very least Whare could play back up there.

I’d feel bad doing that to Mansour though, great club man.

 

[Fangs]

JAC would be a great signing. Would take our trade season from a C- to a B+

A long stint in NSW Cup and they will come. They always come over around mid season and raid lower grades

It would probably be hard to move Mansour on as well I think. I guess we could offer him in a swap deal with Melbourne, a change of scenery could do Mansour some good plus he’s the type of player that would probably thrive under Bellamy.

You’re right about that, can’t hurt to offer him to a few clubs before next season though

 

[OldPanther]

That sounds about right, you got a camera to film it?

No I'm actually pretty pissed off that you and @betcats think I'd get off on a player losing their career.

Keep Sauce and move on Whare. I’m sure we can make a decent centre pairing out of To’o, Naden and Crichton with fox outside one of them and Sauce or the other young guy to go on the other wing. Capewell and Burns can probably play centre as well as Whare can now if we get desperate.

 

[TheFrog]

Doesn’t seem a big risk for a team that won’t be challenging for the title or even the top 4. Next year is the perfect year to blood youngsters from the bench.

You just never know.

 

[Fangs]

Any reliable number on what Whare is on?

We know the length of his deal but I've never seen the yearly figure.

I like him, even if he was depth are we paying overs? I don't think he is the worst centre going around. And geez he has a lot of experience. Mansour looks like the one to chop if push comes to shove, his figure would be around 350k I believe.

 

[TheFrog]

So no evidence or what? Seems strange as that is what caused all the pain for those involved. I don’t know about you but I would notice a phone filming while having sex. Whole thing is weird really I guess wanted it sorted quick

Sounds a lot like a plea bargain so the females involved wouldn't have to undergo cross-examination.

 

[betcats]

I don’t think that oldy it was just a random like cause I was quoted, I think it was tongue in cheek tbh

Don't know the number but chickenfeed comes to mind.

That is the figure I heard

my kids go to school with his kids... They are settled I think motivated to stay. NSW Cup can fix that
