Rumours and Stuff

I’ve heard the same. Think BA trusts him to just do a job. I’ve heard he may debut right wing next to will and Sean will go to the left

Not a great plan...... He will get bombed to hell next weekend.

I am a fan but he doesn't attack the bombs in Cup enough for me.

I don’t disagree. He’s not great under the high ball. But his courage in kick returns has really stood out compared to the wingers in cup. Not set in stone yet. I just heard it is being seriously discussed and most likely at the moment.

Yeah agree he does have a go f**king it out.

Would they use him at centre and Harper on the wing?

 

[lingard]

Bryce is our best player along with Dylan and the two pigs. I vote no on that.

Yeah, I understand that. Probably best to leave Carty where he is. I just meant that he would probably do a better job at centre (for a game or two) than the ones we have in reserves.

I’d doubt it for speed reasons. But it could happen

We are about to enter week 3 of the comp and already our lack of backline depth is being exposed. In week 3!!!

Whoever is responsible has had a brain fart two years in a row.

Two ACLs in the off season wasn’t ideal. Both those players were highly rated. You’re not going to get a journeyman for the rest of the year to fill a spot, he will want next year as well. That f**ks the top 30 roster.

So they are holding out for their preferred long term guy and making do.

What do you suggest they do right now ? Is there an reasonable alternative?

Clearly they have tapped Cini, Moimoisea and that other merkin Taumoepenu. Throw in Rodwell as well. They are trying to make space.

That would be the holy trinity of BA, MON and Sarantinos

I think the fact we haven't signed a utility since we let W.Smith go is lame recruiting.

No no no no no. Not BA.

I don’t know mate. We must be stretched with cash from our re-signings. Surely they aren’t that stupid?

 

[King-Gutho94]

Watching Manly today gee there outside backs are quick.

They have speed to burn all across the park on both sides even with Saab missing.

They went and signed Jackson Paulo and Tommy Talau both cheapies while we sat on our arse and waiting for this mysterious x-factor to show up. And ended up with Morgan Harper.

It's a worry if we give them any space next week.

Do many teams have a heap of cash in their cap this time of year ? We clearly do have enough for a good centre. You’re saying that we’re stupid for not having more ?

I think that's a crazy idea. Russell still has his training wheels on, and should be left where he is. We would have both centre/wing combinations with no game time at all. Manly would just carve us up out wide. Just replace Simmonson or move Harper to wing and replace Harper.

It's a long one, alright.

Penrith signed Alomoti as a backup this year and resigned him again for next year as a backup.


Those 4 you mentioned should not have been signed. Along with that Kalche kid who has never been sighted. Just strange signings for mine

Missed a few on that list btw we have a recruitment manager I would hope our CEO isn't involved with recruitment.

Ben Rogers!

Everyone knows what the issue is and how we got here. You can throw in Dunster was on a long term contract with an ACL too.

That’s not really problem solving though is it ? It’s easy to whinge and everyone does here daily, but real deal solutions are not that easy. I guess that’s why people don’t post non-hysterical solutions very often.

How dare you talk about our club like this. Are you a real fan?
We had Richard Penisini and AMS GET INJURED FFS. Yes I know they where not in our TOP 30 but still it doesn't matter. Our club just got unlucky.

UNLUCKY

100% mate. Someone who is making sense.
The clubs doing great things. From Harper to Superman. Foundations are strengthening
