Sharks Sign Dustin Cooper

[PHaTMaN]

Cant say I noticed him much at the Storm and I do admit he has been plagued with injury at the knights. So it is possible if he can stay injury free he might be a different story but from what I have seen of him at Newcastle?

No thanks.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHA
How appropriate.

 

[Bundy]

Damn he'd be a big fullback!
Another goal kicker too! Hahaha

 

[fizman]

I beleive he could make a good centre. Pommeroy and Cooper could be a good partnership in my opinion.

How the hell can a club sign a player and not know where the hell they want to play him?????

 

[skeepe]

The Raidres were chasing him as well. I believe he has played mainly backrow this year, so that is where I expect the Sharks would play him.

Well skeepe, you can pretty much expect Raper to play him wherever he doesn't belong.

 

[Macca]

The next Beau Scott?

I tell you what if I get Cooper in the golf day next year . . .

 

[Breadman]

He went pretty well in the games I saw of him at the Storm.
One thing that sticks out in my mind is him brutally running over the top
of Simmo about 5 out to score

ohhhhh C'MON!!!!!!!!

Surely you jest?!

 

[OmniShark]

Good signing
Has got some mongrel in him - would make a good blockbusting winger (if ours ever got the ball)
God knows why Dusty chose us through, could only be for lifestyle reasons, certainly not football ones

 

[Breadman]

It was sickening to watch. Simmo went down like a blessed lead balloon.
I know its probably hard to believe BTR, knowing how much of an ardent Simmo supporter you are

 

[fizman]

Simmo was following the Reefy game plan. Not tackling close to the try line.

 

[Alan Shore]

I wanted us to sign him from Melbourne last year or the year before. He has some talent.

 

[Thomo.]

ive only heard his name before. haven't paid much attention to him

at this stage i'm hoping our recruitment is godd this year, unlike in the past

 

[spacemanspiff]

Was a very handy player.
Thought he had massive potential when he left the Storm.
Knights picked him up as a fullback and he got injured not long after starting in firsts - I think Seage took his place, then Thaiday took Seages place - didnt see anything of him since then.

If he's over the injuries then I'd like to see him in the Centres with the Pom.

Then where would u have, perhaps our main/top (unfortantly) signing Josh Hannay?

 

[squiddy]

he aint gonna be any good if he doesnt see any ball - that's what we need to fix !

 

[White Poiner]

Put him a prop then.. Plenty of ball.

 

[sharkadelic]

Nah I see him on the wing. Albert to move to I dunno, somewhere else. How did he play at Fullback? I heard he went ok
