Rumoured Signings - 2015/2016.

[Kiwi]

I heard that Manly had dropped off on the chase for Taylor? All media speculation though. I don't believe anything a "journalist" maggot types until a player or club announce it....

I think they should go with Pearsall from NYC. Not sure if he's ready but personally, I'd give him 2 or 3 games at the back end of this season (even off the bench) to see how the kid goes. Not like he could do worse than Foran. Then Lyon can drift in and out of the 6 as required next year to give the kid a break when needed.

What do I know though!

If your writing this year off would you just drop Foran and play Pearsall now? Get him half a dozen games under his belt.

You seem to have a better idea than the journos so that's something at least.

so based on the fact he's old, past his best, and offers no tangible value to the eels, I'd expect him involved in a player swap with Hopoate.

Ballin would probably offer more to the Eels than Hopoate. Atleast he would be better value. Hopoate is easily the most overpaid back in the game. He's barely even first grade quality now.

I watched the Fox Classic Match today which was the 2011 GF and Hoppa was absolutely immense for Manly. That Mormon stint really did set him back.

Hiku to Warriors

I saw Ligi Sso to the Warriors too?

So the list of 14 was reverse psychology and they are in fact the stayers!! Jeniuos :crazy:

I think everyone expected he would not be the same player straight away. But 2 years after returning and he's not even the player he was when he made his debut.

It's possible he could get back to that form one day considering he's still young. But it's more likely we will never see that player again. Such a shame as he could have been worth what Eels were paying him.

Awww Pip. Did I hurt your feelings??

Quote away mate, its all fun and games!

 

[POPEYE]

Looking forward to spending a lot of time in this thread NB?

 

[MacDougall]

Eh Chee Kam would be a starting backrower at our club. Hardly garbage. No idea why he hasn't gone on with it at Manly. Utterly humiliated our state cup side a few weeks ago single handedly.

Haha I've packed my sleeping bag and will be moving in for a month

Thanks Sam the Eagle, I shall continue. I have a soft spot for Manly, great club, even if Beaver face gets the shits with my information. However, I feel he is intrigued by my rumours, considering I scooped Lewis Brown and Korisau for him.

Now...Bozo has a few in his sights...Moa, Tamou and Lui on the cheap. A couple from left field I'm hearing, and Bozo is very sneaky, are Teo and Whare. Trust me, Lyon is being asked to retire, and if this fails, bye bye Hiku.

Anyway you look at it Sam, and Mr negative Beaver face, when Bozo has finished it all,Manly will be formidable in 2016. It will be worth the current pain, trust me.

You left out Alex Glenn.

Don't get upset now, but Moa and Tamou have been widely spoken about for over ages now so no "scoop" there. Did hear about Whare a month or so ago. Would be interesting, but surely won't happen.

Yep, Glenn would be solid too, pretty sure Barrett was in Brisbane recently, but if he could swing Whare, excellent.

Moa came out only 8 days ago and said he was not looking to leave the Roosters and fully intended to see out his contract if not re-sign with them - http://www.nrl.com/moa-set-to-stay-with-the-roosters/tabid/10874/newsid/88053/default.aspx

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

This thread is about to get busy with all the players Parra will have to cut in light of the salary cap breach, that is if they are still doing it today.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Keary to Manly.

Aye aye Captain.

Well aware of that. It doesn't change the fact it has been discussed for a couple of months prior to him stating that.

Where's that one come from??

Are you talking at the end of 2016 when his contract is up? (I think he only signed a 1 year extension didn't he?)
