Rumours and Stuff

For your sake i hope he coaches Parra for many years to come, for the rest of the fanbase he needs to be loaded into a cannon and fired into the sun ASAP.

His bald head will melt

I sense something is up here.

It doesn't make a lot of sense.

When have we ever pursued anyone so publicly since the R&R committee has been brought in.

It's either a bluff or were being used as bait for someone else to pounce.

Rumours are Gus is picking the team this week.

Dogs haven't been terrible. They where in it for a long time against the Sharks and should of beat Souths. No finals but they might sneak into the top 12

Turuva for 500k or Lomax for 800k? No brainer. Get Turuava.
Lomax at 600k ok.

Yeah they should have beat souths they were there for the taking.

Burton needs to move to the centres and find a new place where critta can get more involved.

I believe Lomax has got his salary removed for the next 2 years off the dragons and been terminated.

So it's a clean slate with negotiations.

I reckon a deal has been done somewhere that he is satisfied to either take a paycut to get out of there. Or another club has matched what the Dragons were paying him.

We are in the box seat and Lomax can also hold STG to 2 more years.

It is absolutely reasonable that we have given Lomax an offer with a deadline.

I just don't see where Blaize plays bar centre in 2025.
One thing about yesterday's game I did like was his step and speed. Another off season and 6 - 8 more kgs and he will be an absolute weapon.
Basically a bigger version of Dylan Brown.

Can he though? If they agree to release him I assume he is taking all the risks now.

Where do you see him play?

 

[hindy111]

Centre. Long term they may turn him into a fullback but we have Guth. And he has so much work to do to be a good fullback.

Do we not keep Penisini if we get Lomax?

 

[hindy111]

Do we not keep Penisini if we get Lomax?

In other words why do we want Lomax? Unless we don't want Gutherson passed 2025 and Blaize is going there

We need 2 centres.

I can only assume like you they believe Blaize will be the long term fullback option.

FFS! Lomax and Blaize where my theoretical centers in my post!

He looked good in attack, defence looked brittle though for a 6.

Blaize looks decent in attack but is a long way from being defensively adequate

@TheRam you got it 100% correct.

Whilst I don't think fullback is his best position I have it on good authority he is being groomed to be Gutho's successor.
