Rumoured & Confirmed Signings - Part 5

[BossleyPanther]

Aekins was safe but had a lot less about him physically than Edwards.

Edwards didn't have the brightest starts, but he was dropped and after that never looked back.

Rothfield claiming we about to open contract negotiations with Nathan and Ivan for 5-year extensions. Possibly extending both till the end of 2032.

They have us by the balls really.

They so do. We shouldn't rush to sign him until his hammy is alright.

Only on a Panthers forum could the stability associated with signing the world’s best player and best culture creator in the game to long term contracts be met with cynicism.

Bro sign them both up for as long as they want

Us having a Turbo situation with Nathan is a real worry but yeah we have to give them what they want.

You can't be emotionally on this. As good as Nathan is, this hammy has kept him out most of the season. Let's see how he comes back. Body breaks down the most at age 30, that's something I learnt in age care.

Guys, best coach, best player, sign them. Naths not our racing blokes on the corso they’ll get that hammy sweet.

What if Nathan asked for extra years? What if his Dad did aswell? Imagine panthers saying no and both wanting out early because of it... one good way from going premiership favs every year for the next 5 years or hardly making the top 8 without him and his dad! It's that big.

Asked because he's unsure of his body maybe......

I'm 100% doing whatever deal they want but it's a calculated risk

It's been mentioned previously by others including players and media that Nathan is the 1st onto the training paddock and the last off. While not being a doctor, after the latest hammy incident, Nathan identified that he probably has to train less to manage the risk of injury. Interesting to see if this makes a difference to the number or frequency of hammy issues.

Exactly. Sometimes this forum and it's carry on by a couple of posters leave me without speech.

Penrith going through a time which most other clubs could only ever dream about.

Carrying on about extending the current world's bsat half back and coach........

The mind boggles.

Some of you don't deserve nice things.

Negotiate them down as best you can, try and overpay Ivan to underpay Nathan for the sake of the cap, but everyone knows there's only one way this can, must and will go.
