Steve Rogers Is Talking To....

[Sideline Eye]

The managers of both Lance Thompson and Daniel Conn, today!

 

[Genius Freak]

Who's Daniel Conn?

 

[Sideline Eye]

Up and coming secondrower from the Dogs. Best friend of Ciraldo.

 

[Macca]

Hope they get Conn, f**k the Dragon

 

[Sideline Eye]

100% with you McSharkie

 

[Chondricthyes]

2KY this morn said Thompson was a done deal.

 

[Sideline Eye]

Rogers wants Thompson to be a Shark

 

[Snoop Shark]

Conn all the way. Big wraps on this kid. Sully will be stoked if we get his sig!

 

[PHaTMaN]

Conn's a Dubbo boy originally.

 

[BeenThere]

Hey, SLE, I hear both are just about done deals. Could be a couple of sticking points on the Thommo one, though.

 

[Surely]

We'll certainly be flush with backrowers.

 

[Dragons_#1]

dan conn played union at kings!! i went to school with him!! awesome player!

 

[lolesi]

Hope we get Conn, id be happy for sullyfan to~!

Maybe that article around 2 months ago that had his club : sharks, can predict the future, crazy world we live in.

 

[wittyfan]

Daniel would certainly keep the girls at Toyota Park after Sully's departure. :lol:

And like Zeus, he seems to have a tattoo fetish. :lol:

 

[morri (cWo)]

Lance Thompson won't receive an NRL lifeline from neighbouring club Cronulla Sharks.

A day after Thompson accepted a mutual agreement to part ways with St George Illawarra, Sharks coach Stuart Raper and general manager Steve Rogers met to discuss a possible future for the backrower.

But both Raper and Rogers agreed to show faith in the young players they already have at the club and not pursue or offer Thompson a contract for next year or anytime in the future.

"Stu and I met and discussed the situation but we are happy with the squad we have assembled and won't be pursuing him for 2006," said Rogers.

"We have got a lot of faith in the young backrowers at the Sharks and believe they can do a good job for us next year."

Thank God for that.

 

[Special K]

Thank god but I'd love to have Conn on board. He has massive wraps and a badass tattoo - good enough for the k man.

 

[Jo Ryan]

Yeap Thank god for that. I think the fans would have revolted. About time we showed some faith in the younger guys. They could do with some confidence boosters from the club officials etc Cronulla have the squad to turn some heads for 2006. Lets get on with 2006.

 

[samshark]

Dont agree. I think its a wrong decision by Rogers.
While all reports seem to suggest that Lance is a bit of a tosser he is still
a quality established first grader and IMO one of the best secondrowers in the comp. Why wouldnt you sign him. Id take him over Bailey and co any day.

I really hope that some of the young uns do step up buts its a big jump from Flegg to firsts in a year and if they do perform one may ask...will supercoach give them a go??
