Rumoured Signings 2011/2012 II

[F-1-11]

Issac Luke to Italian soccer, he will fit in well there.

 

[Proud2BeCanberran]

Josh Miller is set to sign with the St George Illawarra Dragons.

Very good move for him, but I'm shattered to see him leave the Raiders. He will suit the style at the Dragons, and IMO, would be pushing for a place in the 17 somewhere.

 

[coast_dragons]

Interesting rumour.

 

[Patorick]

Good for him, if true.

Very brave player.

 

[Evil Homer]

Todd Carney rumoured to Catalan Dragons on a season long loan.

Yeah this is honestly the best thing for Josh, he seems to be going backwards last few years. He was a fantastic in 2005(?).

no doubting Josh Miller's courage, but his history of concussions is a concern

I'll never in my life forget the day that he was knocked out cold 3 times against the Dogs. Courageous is right.

Josh Miller has found a new home for next season, but refuses to accept his Raiders career is over despite suffering a collarbone injury on Sunday.


The 28-year-old’s manager Steven Stone revealed yesterday Miller was close to signing with a rival NRL club for next season after being squeezed out of Canberra’s 2012 salary cap.

A scan this morning will likely reveal Miller’s season has ended three rounds early after the Raiders hard man dislocated his sternoclavicular joint in the loss to South Sydney – an injury which takes about six weeks to heal.

Should the scan confirm the worst, Canberra fans would’ve seen the last of Miller in a Raiders jersey against the Rabbitohs.

It would be a cruel blow to the man who has put his body on the line like none other in an eight-year NRL career.

Miller was desperate for one last crack at representing his adopted home town.

‘‘Hopefully I can get out there, put another shot on and knock myself out for the crowd one more time,’’ Miller said.

:lol:

 

[AB129*]

I love RL.

 

[Alpha]

I know for a fact Josh Miller is leaving due to a bust up with the coach. This has been on the cards for a while he waslooking like going to the roosters at one stage.

Haha that rules. What a guy.

 

[gronkathon]

So Mily and Miller will be back together.

The Concussion Brothers ride again

 

[carlosthedwarf]

Lui to the Cowboys is doing the rounds again.

I guess Thurston would be defacto 5/8 if that happened? Probably not all that different to playing with Benji.

 

[Didgi]

No, I'd say Lui would be halfback with Rovelli 5/8th, Cutters fans must be excited.

Oh, you think he'd be in first grade ahead of Thompson? lol no.

 

[Charlie124]

I dont have a problem with Lui, although im not sure why we need him other than for depth. Thompson and Thurston are the halves for next year and beyond, i didnt think Mick Morgan was that bad in his few hitouts, just needs more confidence and game time. I just dont see why Lui would want to leave Sydney for Townsville only to play in reserves.

 

[AB129*]

Am I the only Lui fan left on the planet? The bloke has perhaps the best hands in the game IMO. Can't tackle, but then again neither could Lockyer/Soward... you know the drill.

Lui is a 5/8th playing out of position and would be an absolute gun playing on the right, opposite JT and next to Paterson/Tate etc.

 

[R2Coupe]

No, there are many Lui fans. It is not realistic to place huge expectations upon him but he does have the potential to be an outstanding player. I just don't see the point of making ridiculous comments about the merits of Thompson v Lui. Apparently they played together as juniors and I suggest would be good mates.

Will Chambers > Penrith

Will Chambers > Penrith

Ivan purchasing a centre? Nah doesn't sound right, not when he could slot a back rower in there.
