Rumoured Targets 3

[Spot On]

Napa is a myth fellas. One of the most overrated players in the comp. He's a very poor carrier of the ball and now he can't afford screw up with his tackle technique or its bye bye for a long time from now on.

Has the size and in a different era would have been a mongel to play against. But for whatever reasons, his coach and club have failed to alter his game and don't seem to mind losing him.

Dogs got the wrong end of that pineapple.

 

[Joel-22]

Fair call looking at last years stats.

Napa - 20 games, 76m, 28 post contact metres, 0.6 tackle breaks, 0.25 offloads, 86% tackle efficiency
Gavet - 19 games, 99m, 36 post contact metres, 0.6 tackle breaks, 0.5 offloads, 87% tackle efficiency

Napa only had 2 games where he cracked the 100m mark.

Gavet would presumably be on less than Napa so that's just good business. Napa's best attribute is his aggression in defence (when he feels like it), but Gavet has plenty of that in his game too, without the reputation at the judiciary.

I'm beginning to think Gavet is more than depth...

Gavet is solid, he’d be in our top 17 imo even if Klemmer signs.

 

[AusKnightRKO]

You don’t sign napa, as you risk losing Saulo, which would be absolute stupidity.

Klem
Glasby
Dsaf
Gavet
Herm

Is a perfectly fine rotation for us next year.

If klemmer gets over the line only two spots to fill, think there are more pressing needs now than more middle forwards.

Hooker and another outside back should do it

Another back up half (Dargan?) and another outside back?

 

[Silent Knight]

Hopefully a new hooker is one of them. Come on down Mr Segeyaro.

Hard to say which way they will go. Someone like Mann who can basically cover 1-7 makes sense.

Only need 29 players signed by 1st of March, they might leave one spot open and see what happens closer to June 30

Yeah I’d be happy with Mann more for his versatility than anything else. Would make a good #14 because Levi will need a spell and there’s likely to be mid-game injuries in the backline too.

I’m interested to see how young Woolford goes this year, he absolutely killed it in ressies last year. Also looks like he’s 13 years old lol

 

[ryana87]

Bulldogs meeting with klemmer today, let's take bets on what time we think the news will break that he is released.... Then how long before knights announce his signing

My bet
130pm release
215pm signing

My bet is the Dogs will announce Klem is joining us, so they steal our thunder.

Either way, Nath Ryan and the media team no doubt have an epic announcement video ready to go

They can use RATM's "Killing in the Name Of" or Motorhead's "King of Kings" as the soundtrack.

 

[Bartwah]

We’re not signing Triple H

 

[newyboy]

Dufty to Fullback, Ponga to 5/8.

Dufty's a Darius clone, yeah no thanks

 

[slotmachine]

Dufty wishes he had a quarter of the class of Darius.
