Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

[glenmoresharkie]

Would be for Kennedy. We can fill the centre spot from within.

 

[Dragon Slayer]

Interesting rumour.

I’d love for it to happen.

The fullback position might be the only carrot for him to possibly make the move?

Interesting too because there is a rumour that the Chooks are interested in getting Herbie Farnsworth to their club.

 

[2012....Sharks Year]

Well that would make sense as to why there’s been absolutely no movement on WK. Joey is a couple of years out of league… assume he’d still have the pace despite the game getting a lot faster in that time. Surely Rorters wouldn’t have room for both Herbie and Joey so it does make a lot of sense. f**k I’d be gutted if WK went to the goons. Reckon Tricky would be too.

 

[Special K]

Who does Manu play for in France? Wonder who their attacking coach is?

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

look at you go, joining the dots

 

[Special K]

tbf someone else picked that up

 

[Ozzi_78]

Have the bears got a fullback?

 

[Quigs]

Can we just get Herbie?

 

[R-15-3]

Manu seems very likely, already has history being coached by Fitz and currently coached by Frédéric Michalak.

Mid season cuts the cost down, we haven’t used Ronaldo’s cap money and believe we had a small amount tucked aside as well.

We will have the cap space next year with a number of guys leaving or if they stay on cheaper deals.

The club is still a tight ship with no leaks, wouldn’t surprise me if a deal was done 6 months ago

Doubt its for WK money though, perhaps thats why he's playing well because he got the talk, but isn't Manu a centre?

He's playing good this year is Will but yeah, its a long season.

He played centre for the Roosters but when put at fullback he was fantastic…

 

[bad boy bubby]

When he played FB for the Kiwis he was very good too.

 

[Ozzi_78]

Connor Watson been given permission to leave. Welcome back Manu.

 

[Quigs]

Oh Uncle Nick, how does he do-eth.

 

[Since 73]

Manu' best position is 5/8.

And his favourite.

 

[Inferno]

when side did Manu play on when playing centre for the chooks? I feel like it was predominantly right but I could be wrong.

He's a year older than Kennedy so he's not really a long term option but he's certainly more versatile.

You'd be right.

How long has he been playing Union, 2 or 3 years?
That'll extend his League Lifeline by about 6 years.
His body has been resting whilst getting paid.

 

[Ozzi_78]

Let’s say this plays out, I really hope WK has a home already planned and he doesn’t exit as a result of this. We aren’t that club that just signs without transparency I think.

 

[glenmoresharkie]

His body will be in good shape I reckon. What position does he play in Union? I know f**k all about Rugby but I can’t imagine he gets too beat up especially playing in Japan

He can play fullback, centre and 6 so if it’s between him and WK, and in a good physical condition to play League again, for me it’s a no brainer. I don’t remember whether or not he’s that quick but I know he is strong and his versatility is something we don’t have a lot of.
