Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[Panfa]

No thanks to moylan burton is gonna be a weapon in a yr or 2 not risking losing him to bring touch footballer moylan back he can stay at the sharks with his best mate fafita.

 

[Blues Riff]

Ha Panfa, I was just about to type the words "Touch Footballer".

Edit- wouldn't be surprised if it happened though.

Moylan also isn't a 1. f**king crazy that people still argue this. At fullback all his weaknesses are exposed

I love Moylan. But Edwards is a better fullback and its not fair to make Luai wait any longer to get the #6 jersey.

Last year at 6 Moylan had a terrific season. This year at fullback he has had a shocking season. Injuries haven't helped. But he just has too many flaws at fullback which I think age and his dodgy hamstrings help expose.

IMO we are better of keeping Edwards unless Ponga or Turbo was to sign. Edwards will get us by until one of the young guys replace him.

 

[martielang]

I was for adding a ball playing fullback a few weeks ago, but the more I look at it I think hooker is the priority.

Also from what I’ve been reading Moylan hasn’t been in great form.

Although one positive of Moylan returning is it would get To’o involved more. He’d had to do a lot of the kick returns.

I’m not saying I want him just that I think it makes a bit of sense from the clubs perspective. I think they’d probably put him at 6 with Luai as utility.

I agree unless you’re getting a top echelon fullback, I don’t see the need to replace Edwards, I think he’s been terrific the last 8 weeks & would still have improvement in him. He’s the best or close to, the next tier of fullbacks.

 

[Luke Bowden]

Jessie Ramien told he’s not welcome at the Knights.

Handy player!

100%. Might be a bit of a dickhead from the sounds of it. But he's a pretty talented centre and worth a shot IMO.

Be crazy not to offer him a contract. Might get him pretty cheap too.

 

[Fangs]

Very good player. Though pretty sure Cronulla will get him before we do.

The Sharks already have a bunch of centres. Unless they move someone on.

 

[franklin2323]

We have the money and the type of player we need. Just don't pay overs

The sort of player we should target

 

[age.s]

I've always rated Ramien but being pissed off half a season into your contract isn't a good sign.

Dugan. Definition of dead wood.

 

[forby]

He would be a good buy. Parra are going cold on Welch, could be a good buy as well.

 

[Crashtest]

Hooper says on Foxsport website there are half a dozen clubs already circling for Ramien, and an immediate release is expected to be granted once he finds a new club.

But how can he find a new club for this season now that the June 30 deadline has past? Would a club be willing to pay him for the rest of the season to just sit on the sidelines?

A contract means nothing if both parties agree to the split. Not a lot the NRL can do if the club permits him to look elsewhere.

That's true about signing him, but he won't be able to play this season though if signed by a new club.

June 30 is the contract deadline for transferring to a new club and being able play that season. So a club would have to think he is worth paying to sit on the sidelines for the rest of the season.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Ramien’s management have been in discussions with the Knights over the past 48 hours and is now free to negotiate elsewhere.
He’s not expected to play for the Knights again, and is unlikely to be around training.

Ouch that is a big fall out.

Pretty sure they can get around it if all parties are in agreement. I could be wrong obviously.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

I’m told there’s almost no doubt that Tyrone Peachey will find his way to the Panthers next season. After a rumoured mid-season switch back to Sydney failed to eventuate, it was thought the 27-year-old may stick it out on the Gold Coast, especially with a new coach in the mix for next season. But I’m told Peachey is still harbouring a desire to return to NSW next season and that Penrith remains the most likely destination.
