Rumoured and Confirmed Signings

[abpanther]

What do we think about the Latimore signing?

 

[The OX]

Kyle O'Donnell has just tweeted confirming he has signed a two year deal with Penrith

 

[franklin2323]

if he is after the money quoted in todays paper is right he will not be at penrith

Yeah. If he rejected $150k. He must of had some good offers. We could match that but shouldn't. We don't need to pay that for a backrower.

On Latimore. He's decent. A handy signing. I guess would be a replacement for Achurch.

Latimore and O'Donnell confirmed? Surely we can't have too much money left?

Two good signings which really add some quality depth to our forward pack.

You would have to think there must be quite a few leaving to accomodate all the new signings.

 

[Big Mick]

They wouldn't be expensive players imo.

Especially Latimore. He was on the outer at the Dragons and would be brought in on Cleary recommendation imo.

O'Donnell is a fantastic signing and a player who supporters will love imo.

Latimore and O'Donnell confirmed? Surely we can't have too much money left?

Both would be on minimum wage or close to it. Or half of Lewis. You be right with a few on the outer. Not so much cap but spots in the squad are getting full and still have Windsor & NYC to re-sign.

 

[Kilkenny]

Let's not be niave here. Neither signing will be on the base wage, they will be on reasonable money.

Why? O'Donnell 1 FG game is 22. So not exactly a superstar junior. Latimore is up to 5th club played bugger all games this year. Just would want the opportunity rather then money.

That will be shame.

 

[Copperhead]

That will be shame.

He's a hard worker, no doubt. But he's got a lot slower over the last few seasons, both his running and delivery. If Segeyaro becomes an 80 miinute player, or Simpkins subs in, or South gets promoted, I'm more than happy with the change.

 

[franklin2323]

Simpkins can start at 9. Brown if needed. Segeyaro off the bench until he's fine to start. South at Windsor if needed. $400k saved between him and Burns going. The service to the 1/2's would be no worse then now. We have money to spend elsewhere

Moses Pangai...

 

[Big Mick]

Vossy put that tweet out about 6-7 hours ago.

THAT would be a handy buy. Big unit with potential.

If we lose Achurch and get Pangai...I'd be very happy.

 

[defunk]

Very handy,keep both if we can...

 

[franklin2323]

Isn't Pangai a centre?

Achurch is gone. It's just whether Tigers or Manly

Been playing for Mackay in Queensland Cup and I assume is still on Nth Qlds roster. Googled Pangai and there is a few clips of him playing for them this season. Not to much to see other than yes is a large unit. Don't know to much more other than there were articles about his playing for junior Kangeroos, didn't bother reading them as his coming to us is not confirmed.
