Rumours and Stuff

[Soren Lorenson]

Salmon a utility but. Covers 2nd row, Centre and halves.

Second roe ffs

 

[JokerEel]

Second roe ffs

Yes cover during a game but not start a game and play 80. H

 

[Gronk]

If I was running the club I'd keep JA for sure. But he'd be facing some stiff competition in NSW cup as I'd be looking for a half.
Parra also need to sign 2 x utilities. One a project style for NSW CUP. And the other a genuine nrl player.
Peachey might be a cheekie option. There would be a few out there. JA shouldn't be considered at all as a bench option. He should only be considered as a back up if Moses is out and also facing competition for that.

The kid from Flegg is doing preseason. Hopefully he can play a bunch of games vs the men in NSW Cup and hold his own.

If @Poupou Escobar CBFd doing his annual age eligibility Flegg thing, we’d know who is too old for Flegg etc. Anyway when Mole announced Dantoray he claimed that he would be top 30 in 2023. Who knows if he made that up.

As for Jake, he’s here for 2023. Maybe he will put on 10kgs in the off season and play lock in Cup.

 

[Stormy36]

cant remember who came first hahaha.

what about PJ Marsh, Brad Drew?

Deano came to parra in 2002, I remember playing a game of cricket with his old man in late 2001 and saying it's good to see deano coming to the best club next year and his reply was "he is playing with parra not Newcastle"

imagine how slow he’d be another 10kg heavier.

Lol. The kid already runs in slow motion put 10kgs on the kent and he won't be able to walk. Fekkin never seen a slower human being. If I were him I'd get on the gear. That's his only hope. Peptides roads, maybe the kent needs 10 red bulls and a rocket up his arse.

Welcome to the Jacob Arthur thread

Seriously the whole f'n roster have been snails since BA hired that AFL Merkin to work on the boys "running mechanics". Ffs.

well 9 years of elite training hasn’t helped.

Brent Read on MMM yesterday arvo (and on their Monday Scrum podcast) that with Munster leaving Storm at the end of 23 being a foregone conclusion, that they have approached Dyl Brown about heading down there (which would see him link with his kiwi halves partner)

Maybe he needs to live more than 7 mins away to get really fit???

Well why would we not wrap up our hottest talent in 20yrs before contracts up? You let him hit the open market. Low ball him and hope he stays ffs. That's how you negotiate.
If he leaves then see what Newcastle has floating rnd in NSW CUP

No matter what happens next it won’t be the clubs fault at least. Because it’s never the clubs fault.

But what if the player wants to test himself on the open market?
The kid should of been offered a long term plan and deal. It's piss poor after seeing what happened with Marata,Mahoney,Papali'i you'd think they'd learn.

You reckon Bulldogs will f**k Burtons extension up? Watch them get it done.

So there's a chance we could get Munster?

We need a back up plan. And we all know what that will be.
Watch for someone to be extended soon

The club can't make him sign a contract.

“
Rugby league will have its own Lebron in 2023!

Parramatta has signed a giant prop from the Broncos system, Lebron Tuala.

And while standing at a towering two metres, he is just shy of NBA legend LeBron James (2.06m). The teenage middle forward is only 18 and still growing, with good judges rating him a fine prospect.

At 118 kilograms, he has plenty of bulk as well and moves swiftly for a big kid.

Tuala made a strong impression playing for Norths Devils in the Mal Meninga Cup this season, where he was spotted by Eels scouts.

Blessed with a strong running game and a hard hitter in defence, he's definitely one to watch out for over the next couple of seasons.”

Roosters plan drastic action on 'reckless' duo

'Severe tongue-lashing'

Cant wait for his 10 minutes of game time next year. Should be awesome.
