Giving off desperation signing vibes like when we signed Offa.

Walker is still performing and add lots of utility and versatility...I know he's 30 but we will actually add value to our team

Here’s hoping.

 

[Lemon Squash]

He adds experience and I’ve always rated him as a player but mainly a middle these days. Not exactly short of them!

 

[Soto]

Here’s hoping.

Play him 5/8th and send Dylbro to Wenworthville or Newcastle

 

[Joshuatheeel]

I mentioned in another thread, thought our attack seems to be struggling as we don't really have a "footy" player in the middle. Thought Mann would have been a decent option, but Walker is as good, maybe better. Plus he has utility value too.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Well that was quick...it's official. 2 year deal

He’s signed until the end of next season. Stop gap solution for the Eels going all out for Galvin?

 

[Gherkin]

Interesting signing. Will definitely help our attack as a link man in the middle and providing utility value in case of an injury.
The make up of the bench will be interesting. I imagine we will still carry 2 hookers. I guess we then have 2 middles with Williams providing coverage on the edge and Doorey as the last resort if we have multiple injuries

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Pay some money? Fairly sure at this time they are paying full freight..

Imagine them going and paying 300-400k a year for 10 years for Brown to play at another club

The Morts clause!

Or getting a mid-season bargain? Walker is an experienced first grader, just like Ofahengaue. These merkins are good people to have in your squad.

 

[Twizzle]

so, what about MON, hey ?

Don't think he is a halves signing, would be very surprised if that is what Ryles is thinking.

Yeah as back up there. But putting him there, takes away from what he has been good at recently, playing around the middle. That's what the side needs.

o I reckon he’ll bring a lot of energy, perfect utility for us, offa is one dimensional

 

[The Predictor]

Great signing

Or anyone else not available until 2027. Or even to allow a youngster already at the club time to be ready for NRL in '27.
