Rumours and Stuff

We can't medically retire him for a known injury as far as I am aware.

Would be worth a shot though for 400-500k at fullback..

He might all of a sudden get a neck injury

 

[Avenger]

Couldn't be us, we don't do 3rd parties but then, we like players with bung knees. If he doesn't work out we can meducally retire him

Why wouldn't it be us? He is exactly what we need.

Exactly. Or a bad concussion.

Do you know of a 3rd party who would step in for us? Will the current powers approve? Does he need polishing? Will we low ball him?

His parents live in Kellyville 7 mins from training.

It's perfect.

The hard part to cop at the moment as it seems like we have nothing going on. I hope that’s not the case, but the fact the Roosters have Spencer L and Dom Young etc who are already 2 very good players just sucks.
Im tipping we go much further backwards this year and it’s quite upsetting. I was not confident at all heading into 23 and even more pessimistic about 24.

I’d play him at left centre he’d be terrific.

We have plenty going on but just not first grade.

The problem is now do we buy players that will block a path for a junior.

We tried to buy the centre from the Tits but he wants more years than we offered.

Who?

 

[Noise]

Papa? No chance he’d be a good centre. Hes too small and not good enough defensively. He’s a fullback

We had Semi. We f**ked up. Had to turn him into a destructive fullback and pay him his million a year. We seemed to think he could only play wing. Silly

Roosters added quality. We added Harper.
But our squads better in 24 and we also got hammered with injuries and suspensions badly this year. I think we will bounce back.

.

First grade is the only thing that matters. We should still be trying to improve the first grade squad (that came 10th) for next year. We’ve been relying on the next big thing from our juniors for a long time now and haven’t won shit. Most teams that finished outside the 8 have either added some better players or signed better coaches . We signed Morgan Harper.

 

[Pazza]

are we seriously going to compare ourselves with the roosters when it comes to attracting talent?

First grade isn't all that matters.

I agree we have been relying on the next big thing and that's due to poor coaching in our Junior pathways.

Panfers and Broncos played in the GF last season have lost players and now rely on Juniors to fill those positions.

Morgan Harper isn't my ideal pick especially that we have Simmonson in our top 30 and both are playing the same role.

Hey we are better than tow Roosters we got the prize signature of Morgan Harper! Roosters missed out big time!

We don't have an Uncle Nick. Everyone knows they skirt the rules and the NRL are not interested.

 

[Stevie]

Who?

Semi.

lol no Semi. I don’t want Paps at fullback let alone out of position.

Really?

Panthers lose Crichton and fill his spot with Alamotti (not a Panthers junior) .

Broncos lose Flegler and fill his spot with Fletcher Baker (not a Broncos junior).
