Rumoured & Confirmed Signings - Part 5

[age.s]

Just on Nofa, had some pretty direct mail that his attitude was beyond poor at the Tigers on his return from Melbourne. As in, bad even considering the problems at the club. I'm all for trusting our systems and backing the acquisition of outcasts at the right price, and at his best he was very damaging with the ball, but I think his goose may be well and truly cooked at this point.

We need a back-up centre, not a winger who can't defend. And keeps falling out with coaches.

Bingo!
We have Turuva and To'o as wingers, with Mclean as back-up.
Centres only Alamoti and Tago. We have no decent back-up outside Garner. And he is needed in the backrow.
Nofa isn't worth a spot in our top 30.

We need another centre.

 

[martielang]

He's well below even your plod standards

Shows how little you know Plod. Plod is all effort, limited skills. Nofa is all skills, limited effort. The anti-plod.

What's the contract on him? It doesn't say in the article

 

[Sime_11]

id rather Mclean, Laurie, Cole, Garner, Schneider, Toelau fill in on the wing before bringing Nofoaluma in

hell id play Mavrik there before Nofoaluma

or just play with 12 men....

Casey McLean has been promoted to the top 30

Just what we were lacking another rookie that is 2 years from NRL standard

That's what happens when other clubs take from us.

It is past Round 11. He could play for the side anyway so it is a token move that stops us bringing someone in for that role

He was signed until 2025 though

FK me Souths are interested in Royce Hunt, Can Panthers Management pull their finger out

We should have plenty of coin for him and a back up centre.

 

[Bred not Bought]

Does that mean our top 30 is now full?
Or does May being stood down mean his spot in the top 30 now doesn't count?

3 time premiers vs Skeletor and maybe Josh Hannay going to Parra might have a say in it.

I'm sure we can get Sorenson to have a word to him.

I mean we are forced to promote players early cause our depth is shot.

No. We choose too.
Luron, Billy Scott are on new 4 year deals neither will play FG yet. No reason Casey couldn't of been the same.

Except the plan must be to use him and not have his match payments on the cap for next year

So this means we won't get a short term deal this year as our top 30 is full

What's the go with Tim Sielaff-Burns this year? Is he out the year?
