Rumours and Stuff

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Tyrell is a hard running player. Would be hard to force way in souths this season at 2nd row with murray crighton and sutton the 3 men in thise positions.
I like the toughness of him but not seen him in isp so no idea if worth it.

We're not short of under-sized backrowers though.

Let's not forget where this mail has come from. I'll believe it when I see it.

Where did it come from? I tried sorting backwards from Avenger's post but couldn't be f**ked sorting through the 7 million accusation of nuthugging and deathriding.

I think he runs and hits hard. Moi moi was small for a prop.

He is listed at 188cm. I wouldn't pay attention to weight they never update those things. He would be able to carry 105kgs.
Mana Mau is listed 4 cms shorter and 105kgs.

Crightons 102kgs....

Hey my sources are creditable.

Mannah will be 31yrs old in Feb. If he is smart he should look at early release and UK.He could pick up a 3yr deal.
If he slips into reserves this season coming at age of 32 the risk of no contract offers would be a lot higher. I'd have no issues releasing him.

So on average, 1 every 4 years. Slater's turn to keep those averages going.

As if he’s going to forget how to play just because he’s turning 32. He had one of his best seasons this year, and was easily in our top three middle forwards. He’ll still be top 17 when Paulo joins.

Timmy needs to go definitely. He is no longer a starting prop. 1 more year should see him out imo.

So play him off the bench then.

Alvaro, Terepo , Jnr will be our best 3 props.
Evans may suprise. Unsure how good this Kafusi kids rated. Unsure where Lane plays.
If Manu,Niaukore and Lane are the wide outs Tepai maybe pushed to middle. Or if Tapau rumours are true.

 

[hindy111]

Tim did fine in 18. But he may want to play 3yrs and wont be in the NRL. I can see him slipping out of our top 17 next season quite easily.

Lane will be an edge forward.
I reckon Niukore will be as well.
