Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

[shadowboxer]

Not fussed on the Miller situation but don’t want him to go to Newcastle. Great opportunity for him? Dunno if I’d want him being effected by the muppet coaching up there. Joint is toxic.
He would go well though

I'd prefer miller to kennedy to be honest

Shark cast seemed to suggest Dykes future is at 6 when Moylan leaves but I see him as our fullback personally. Particularly when we signed that Panthers half who has some serious wraps on him. You'd imagine he is part of the plans for the future, assuming he kicks on.

Yea really not sure where he will end up but have him in the 13 asap think it comes down to who fails / goes down first. Good chance he starts Rd1 at fullback imo.

Buba knows when to come in, not so good at last line of defence.
Miller is fast ,gives a good pass. Not tall enough to compete for the high ball. Not so good at last line of defence.
‘Dykes is fast , but he is a half . Not tall enough to contest the high ball and untested at the last line of defence.
Iro, another small player, fearless , with high work rate. Untested at the last line of defence.
I’m looking for a player who can catch and is fast and scary. A certain level of violence would be needed.

Can we somehow merge them all into 1 superstar? Then this hybrid of 4 players will get injured in round 1 and we'll be stuck with Hiroti for the rest of the season.

Marty still has no home.

I might be on my own but I’d take him as a benchie/back-up on minimum wage or close to it.

Well I’m grateful that Fitz is the coach

That's nice

Love to keep Miller.

 

[2012....Sharks Year]

That's nice

Wasn’t having a go....just don’t think Miller laces up Wk’s boots at this point. Having said that I’m happy to keep Miller on the books but likely that he’ll get a better offer sooner rather than later.

I like wk but he just seems too passive (if that's the right word) on the field. He chimes in to backline movements and times his passes really well but the game can seem to drift by without him doing a whole lot. Defence is horrible, some fullbacks are near impossible to get past but i pretty much expect to concede a try when it's up to him to stop it. Don't rate his positioning or urgency on the goal line from kicks either.

Miller obviously has had less time to critique the negative aspects of his game at fullback and I'll admit it's more of a gut feel he'd do a better job there, he could be atrocious for all i know over a whole season.

Kennedy will start the year in the number 1 and i hope he rips it up and makes me look stupider than usual

I don't think Miller or WK is the answer for a team who wants to win it all. Hopefully Dykes is. The fact Gus and Bennett both offered him the starting 1 in their (admittedly weak) squads before he even debuted to me suggests there is something there.

 

[SadShark]

Spot on. Kennedy’s manager has it written into his contract, that he is not to tackle a player who break’s the line.

Can’t come quick enough, that we don’t see this used car yard, inflatable-floppy arm man in 1st grade. Not even the talent of a rectal follicle on David Peachey’s arse.

Connor Tracey wears royal blue & white, as does Wadeo. I know he was once good. Now it’s like waiting for Rick Astley to have another No.1 single.

Heaps of forwards need to step up another gear this year or we’re cooked before the goose is plucked. The coach needs to choke out any forward whose stat’s are under 100-Mtrs average a game.

7th to 8th…..maybe. Bundled out week 1, like a used Depend nappy (just toss em’ over here when you’re done with them….for research purposes only. FMD).

This.
Every day of the week.
Twice on Sunday.

If we genuinely think Dykes is going to be a 5/8, Part of me is hopping we are delaying Millers release because of us wanting to free up more money by letting Will go and getting RTS this year instead
