Rumours and Stuff

[Noise]

Believe we were 30/30 until today

Yep, Talagi took the last spot (until today)

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

I don't know why we didn't just say to him on 31 October here is your 2024 contract money with an extra $10k on the top, don't f**king bother turning up.

Did we have $150k space left on the 2023 cap?

I still think we should be trying to get Paps to the club.. If he can stay fit will be a good fullback for another 5 years.

Gutho who is still a great fullback can cover centres.

Completely agree

 

[Stevie]

Completely agree

I’m just so not in the Paps camp. Just not my sort of player to froth over. Rather have Guth and a big strong centre in Lomax (or similar).

 

[jk13]

So Lomax is going to sook mode….

 

[Hindmarshisgod2]

I wouldn't trade Gutho for anyone

I don't froth over him either. Not that way inclined...each to their own.
Not many centre options. Lomax I will repeat don't think can play left side. Runs with ball in right hand and tries to go on the outside of his man. Won't work on the left....

Agree here Lomax is a right centre Penisini is a right centre.

Lomax won't want to move and I don't think shifting Will helps his play.

I am a huge Gutho fan at fullback still in the top 5. But if you can snag Paps for cheaper than Lomax you are laughing.

He brings the speed to open the game up especially with our forwards dominating.

Momo is gone? Write off 2024. This was going to be his break out season FFS!

 

[T-Boon]

I wouldn't trade Gutho for anyone

I’d trade him for at least 5 fullbacks.
Anyone who wouldn’t trade him for Walsh for example needs to be committed.

Fk Reece Walsh.

STATEMENT ENDS

 

[Happy MEel]

Doorey is a good player and doing well until he was usurped by a gun called Andrew Davey...Doorey threw a ripper of an offload to setup match winning try for Hands in the parra riff game last year if my memory serves me correctly..Doorey is one well worth persevering with. Good hole runner and a big unit too

Yep, I like the big unit. I remember seeing Emu initially trying to keep up with first grade and it was laughable. His transformation has been remarkable but it took time. I’d hold on to Doorey.

 

[TheCrowe]

Yep, Talagi took the last spot (until today)

Plus according to TCT Rodwell has gone so we should have 2 spots shortly.
Actually like the look of Tamale. Looks like a big body with some speed and footwork.

A speccie!

 

[lucablight]

We also dodged a bullet by not getting Tapau a few years ago. Imagine if we were stuck with him now.

 

[Hindmarshisgod2]

I’d trade him for at least 5 fullbacks.

Nup....can't stand Walsh

I’ll add to this that Emu is an absolute monster of a human being in real life (in stature). Same goes for Sivo and Mataele. I’m not a small guy but a deadset midget (or little person) standing next to them.

 

[eels_fan]

Nup....can't stand Walsh

Within 2 years will be the best player in the game.

we’d kill for someone like him

 

[Parra Pride]

I’d trade him for at least 5 fullbacks.

Walsh, The Hammer (playing like last year and not last week) and a 100% fit Turbo are about all I’d trade him for. Edwards is good but I don’t really think he is a game breaker.
