Rumoured Signings 2011/2012 II

[Patorick]

Might have to release him to get the halfback Maguire wants.

 

[Nemesis]

Might have to release him to get the halfback Maguire wants.

Doubt it, considering his contract extension was only announced a few months ago.
.... and given Souths have got several other players off contract at the end of the year, cap space shouldn't be a problem.

 

[BranVan3000]

Eels fans have been slinging that rumour around for about a year now lol

 

[BunniesMan]

Asotasi and Crocker going off contract will get us Cherry.

 

[Patorick]

Given up on Cronk then?

 

[Mixmasterreece]

He wants out.

 

[bottle]

Given up on Cronk then?

Nah, bugger it, Rusty will take both. He's trying to corner the market on Qld based halves.

 

[carlosthedwarf]

I wouldn't mine Luke at the Eels. He's light years ahead of anyone at the club currently.

 

[beads6]

Eels should be worried about getting some game breaking backrowers and centres before they get a hooker IMO.

Have you seen their roster?

They should be throwing wads of money at anyone who doesn't play in the 1 or 7 jersey.

 

[carlosthedwarf]

9 should be the first spot to fill though - Keating & McGuire are diabolical.

 

[beads6]

Keating isn't that bad really. They will need to spend plenty to get Luke and while he is a good player I think the Eels need to fix other areas first.

 

[hineyrulz]

We desperately need a first grade quality rake and wide running back rower. With Hindy, burt, smith all probably retiring and Shak and Poore unlikely to be retained we will have shitloads to spend.

 

[carlosthedwarf]

Keating isn't that bad really.

He's not that good either.

 

[M2D2]

McGuire was one of your best players last year from an outsiders view.

 

[BunniesMan]

Given up on Cronk then?

Cherry should already have Cronks QLD spot by Origin time.

He's much younger and IMO already the best #7 in the league (considering Thurston isn't a #7 anymore).

He wants out.

Yep because players routinely want out just months after signing a multi year deal.

 

[1 Eyed TEZZA]

Cherry should already have Cronks QLD spot by Origin time.

''Cooper has served his time in waiting,'' Meninga said. ''He will be the first-choice halfback, provided he is playing well and is injury-free. We've got a fabulous back-up in Daly, and I think Chris Sandow is going pretty well at the moment, too.''

When it's with Souffs, yes.

Just ask Luke Lewis

Just ask Todd Carney. He couldn't get away fast enough from your mob.
