Rumours and Stuff

[Avenger]

Might just have been a subpar season than a sign of things to come. He still had some very good games, he just had fewer of them. Could've been related to Norman's form, and both could have been due to Moses arriving on our right edge.

Would you swap him for a player like Ethan Lowe?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

They play on different edges. But prior to this year I would've said that Ma'u is better.

I would have toobut I find that Ma'u lacks a bit of punch in attack these days and has been caught out plenty in defence.

Tepai is now our best back rower and defender. Alvaro our best prop. If anything Mannah should also probably be be moved on.

While they're first graders they should have a spot in our squad. Providing they are on the right amount of money. In fact, even after they are no longer first graders they can still be useful backups provided they are willing to play ISP for peanuts. As we know, some senior players are willing to take a pay cut (e.g. Robson, Marshall) while others aren't (Corey Parker).

Some senior players don't have a sweet gig to head to despite their clear inability to perform it, so are less likely to move on when offered less money.

Mau still had some excellent games. I think he suffered a bit once Moses got here particularly, we used our right edge a lot more and when we did go left it was usually a shift for Semi.

Definitely wouldn't be contemplating moving him on

 

[Joshuatheeel]

I reckon Manu would go alright in the middle as he gets older and Scott moves on.

 

[Lethal]

Apparently Hadley said we are about to announce 4 big signings in the next 48 hours? Anyone hear this?

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Just some rumours so they are probably crap but someone on nospam46 said Hadley has reported we will be announcing 4 new signings within 24 hours.

While someone posted Norman may not be here in 2018.

Hey did any of you merkins hear that Hadley said we're announcing 4 big signings in the next 48 hours?

Wasn't sure if it had been mentioned

Gee, that sounds pretty far fetched. Unless Cronk is one of the signings. Which also would be pretty far fetched.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Someone mentioned Josh Morris is one of the signings. Good player, but we already seem to have a wealth of centres in our squad. It wouldn't be the smartest use of the cap. Brett Morris might be a better signing.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

It could just be that 'sign the brother' thing we do.

Yeah wouldn't make sense!! Brett would provide cover at wing and fullback (allowing smith to cover the halves).

 

[Bazal]

Maybe they thought Brett was Josh? They're identical twins after all.

 

[Twizzle]

dont want either of them

too old and too slow

 

[hineyrulz]

Charlie Gubb
Luke Kelly
Greg Eastwood
Michael Liiiiiiiiiicha


Come on down.

 

[Twizzle]

4 is a lot unless we have some outgoings

if true I'd say they are 4 fringe players or benchies

For real, merkin? They are three years younger than the Storm's 'big three'. They probably have two years left in them as top 17 players.

The main benefit is that they're strong defensively.

Josh morris wouldn't be any slower then the slowest centre i have ever seen in Taka
