Hmmm for any holding onto hope about Bird returning to the team I'd say it just got to it's lowest chance....

Id say that puts the final nail in the G.Bird coffin
be interesting to see how he goes there

 

[Special K]

Reni to play in the centres!!

Wonder if they will do a deal with Wigan now.

Serious? Centre?

 

[Fiji~Bati]

good signing for the sharks there.

 

[dogz08]

Good luck to him. This time Reni don't f*ck it up..

 

[Penance]

Serious? Centre?

The slowest backline in the NRL lol

 

[Shorty]

I agree Penance lol.
So...I mean,we already get it about the Sharks defence but it was something that didn't really need the improving the attack was what needed improvement.
But so far in that department they have...Barrett?

Mind you Reni and Anthony are both versatile and athletic players.

Would replace Simmo, so at least he can pass the bloody ball. Seriously tho I can't see this happening. Bird is a shot duck (jk) and the Wigan deal will now go ahead I reckon. But FFS not the bloke they are sprouting

 

[Special K]

Serious? Centre?

Yes I am serious.

He is 1000 times better than Simmons.

Plus when injuries strike we can rotate him to the backrow. Or we could start Tupou off the bench in an impact role.

Signing Reni does not end the clubs fear of a court battle over Bird. I think if the club was confident in releasing him they would have by now regardless if they could find a replacement player or not.

 

[Jono078]

They got enough backrowers?

Maitua, Gallen, Tupou, Anderson etc.

 

[Phil McGrawhan]

By rd 2 they will be without the Turd & Maitua(f**ked up again by then)

 

[Loudstrat]

If Maitua signed for a small 1 year contract - they might still be able to keep Bird.

 

[dogz08]

You'd think it would be small..

 

[Churchhill]

See how he goes,maitua and barrett might end up sitting on the sidelines for one reason or another...

 

[innsaneink]

That'll learn him for sleeping in...
