Rumours and Stuff

[Joshuatheeel]

If we wanted a soft back rower with passing and kicking skills we should've kept him. Or signed Curtis Sironen.

Instead we have a mad merkin back rower who cramps up, that can pass and kick .......Kenny Edwards !!

Hey did Avuva play for Wenty on the weekend? If so how'd he go?

How ironic is it that Cartwright is suffering from 'bone bruising'?

It does show he the diet works. Bone shifted plate and fractured ankle - Heals and not visible via scans 24hrs later.

"Fractured ankle"

I hear there is a chance of Semi not leaving after all.

Take it up in the wenty thread sir

 

[T.S Quint]

Didn't he sign a contract?
Or does this have anything to do with his court case?

I had a gut feeling that he may stay. I was thinking that. How hard to flip on a French rugby deal.
We can pay him 550k a year. He is worth it. 1.1 mill vs 1.5 mill. Cost of relocation etc.....

 

[Avenger]

Semi is easily worh $750K. He is the best winger League has seen.

Some stuff I heard over the weekend.

(I think one of us here hinted the bit about Bird it and kudos to them)

1. We are looking at Jack Bird.
2. Jason Taumalolo wants massive money to leave the Cowboys. Apparently he will be the most expensive forward in the game no matter where he ends up.
3. Mitchell Moses is shopping himself around like a whore (Exact words).
4. We are close to announcing David Nofoaluma. Not a done deal yet. Tigers may now have enough to keep him with the Simona de-registration.

I wouldnt go 750k. I think that would be a mistake. Scored 4 tries yesterday -I watched highlights a few times and most wingers will score everyone of those. Jennings and Bevan created them.

Ive said this a few times. Penrith have
1 Moylan
2 DWZ
3 Peachey
4 Blake
5 Mansour

That leaves Hiku,Whare and Edwards. All will want a starting first grade spot . Id like Hiku. They may even have to pay a chunk to to silly recruiting by the Duke of a guy they never needed.

That would indicate Semi is definitely leaving

I'd pay that to keep Semi too. He's only 25 this year FFS.

There was no guarantee Blake or Peachey would be long term options at that stage. They had potential, but Blake was more a winger and Peachey was going between backrow and the bench. Silly to pay as much as was reported maybe.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Where would we play Jack Bird? He is a winner though, would love to have him.

Good question. I reckon BA would go 5/8 and gutherson into centres.
