Rumoured and Confirmed Signings - XXV

[Bigfella]

Surely we will have to look out for dessie when it next comes off contract.

He's a classic Hasler style prop.

 

[T.S Quint]

In a nutshell ... He was a former junior rep player who spent a good part of a decade coaching matts and ball sides, he won a couple of gf's there he also spent a season coaching the 20's and was assistant coach to Rip Taylor in our gf win in 08 I think ... Life member.
Spent a couple of years as Stuart's assistant at the Sharks than left to be Steve prices assistant at saints before he took a head coaching role at the London Broncos but cut the stint short due to personal reasons and headed back home

Thanks very much mate.

Yeh, probably. Though he might be a tad shorter than Dessie's ideal.

 

[T.S Quint]

That fact that he's a Kiwi might have something to do with it though. Maybe he wants to play for them.

I seem to remember reading something about him being eligible for NSW, but I might be wrong.
He didn't get a run in the NZ train-on squad either. Surely he could have gotten picked in that if he was going to be a Kiwi.

How's Botswana? Hot at the moment?

The heat's ok...but the flies are shitting me.

He has played for Aus Schoolboys. But at this stage he'd have a choice surely.

Maybe both National teams confuse him with Sepha, or the other Junior Paulo who played for us an Penriff.

Pretty sure Junior played for NSW U20's, pretty sure he's eligible for Australia.

[QUOTE =Twizzle ]

could our board pull off such a deal ?

Is that their role?

I thought only rogue CEOs handle contract negotiations

ffs, how hard is it to click on the quote icon

Welcome home Joe.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Is he good is he good is he any f**ken good?

 

[Chipmunk]

Clicky

Although it is only the train on squad, congratulations to Manu for his selection. On the whole he had a pretty strong season (perhaps a bit quiet midway through it but very good at the start and finish) and it is a well deserved call-up.

*Edit* That Keiran Foran bloke goes ok as well...

It will be interesting to see how he goes getting into the UK if he actually gets picked in the team.

Josh reporting that Glenn Stewart is leaving for ESL. Sam Burgess ?

Laws were passed last night which lifted the "restriction" of commercial channels having broadcasting the GF in SD.

Of course the anti-siphoning rules never prevented CH7 & CH9 from broadcasting Origin or the NRL GF simultaneously on SD & HD.

I note that in the ^^ above article that free to air spokesmen are saying that the legislation might be "too late" to implement this in 2015.

An ex player employed with the club told one of my colleagues that we have a fairly big signing coming up. Would not reveal the player. I think stagger knows.
