Rumours and Stuff

[Noise]

Only player I have questions over is Momoisea

I have a question if Hodgson's knee and his other knee and then the first knee again, will handle more than a handful of games? Probably another question about his shoulder too.

How is letting the plebians know what a player earns going to stop rorting?

Rorting will never stop.

At least we know what there on the cap for at least.

 

[Happy MEel]

This is true and I hope we keep both our halves, We don't want to go into season 24 with a new half or 5/8 with also the possibility of a new hooker if Hodgson gives it away after 1 season..

For sure mate.

Other knee and shoulder have had to do bugger all for almost a season. So hopefully they are fine.

With Oregon gone, we need someone to step up. Is it Rodwell, Makka, Oggie, Momo or Emu ?

Maybe none of them and we have a bolter from the 21s ?

Maybe Nathan Brown can roll his sleeves up and slide into the prop rotation ? ? His 30 min stint in the GF suggests no for me.

@Twizzle Can we add JA to some hidden word in the forum so we can have a bed wetting free zone during the off season?

I have no faith in any of the named players to be honest.

I reckon we'll go either Murchie or Doorey in the middle. Someone a bit more lightweight who can do more work.

I've heard that Momo is a beast. He was held in high regard by the Knights and they wanted to keep him. He chose us for less is what I've been told. I think he'll be a main stay on the bench next season.

Its rumoured Moses is on $900k already, with bonuses additional on rep games or a title, and Dylan is on $800k.

With the cap rumoured to be increase by $1.2-$1.5m for 2023, and a further $300k in subsequent years, i'm sure we can factor $350-$400k of that increase for our halves. Offer Moses $1.15m and Brown $1m a year for 4 years, with an upgrade to 2023, take it or leave it.

Murchie was a centre that moved to the second row. Doorey might make a good smaller middle. Looks suprisingly fast as well .

We need some smaller middles. Junior, Reg, and Matto are massive. Hopgood is a good start for a smaller, work-rate middle.

Lets hope that is the plan.

If these merkins are good enough to get on the field one of them might play on the edge. Matterson might start out wide and then move into the middle later on.

If we can find 80 minutes of edge forward out of Murchie/Doorey/other the following is the foundation of a pretty good middle rotation:

8. RCG
10. Paulo
13. Hopgood
14. Matterson

That’s 220+ minutes for the three middle spots. That leaves less than 20 minutes to bring in from elsewhere. Any merkin could provide that.

Murchie played pretty strong in the games I watched him play. I think he has the inside running for the second row spot.

Good local Junior

You don’t have to have 30 local Juniors in your squad mate.. Penrith just have a lot more than most teams.
