The Kingdom for a Centre?

[Adsy]

Based on?

Possibility of Taufua also leaving us.

White and Royal going meaning Houston, Simmo and others may play prop next year instead of backrow.

Smithy also loves players that can cover a few positions.

So I just thought he might want someone in the mould of an Anderson who can play centre or second row depending on his ever changing game plan.

 

[Matt23]

Would it be Luke Covell from the Sharks?

Well at least we would'nt have to worry about Kurt's goal kicking anymore :crazy:

 

[keeney]

Or scoring any tries with Covell and Mcmanus in our backline.

:lol: it's funny cos it's true.

 

[otori]

If it was Simon Mannering I would be so happy. That guy is gun. Put him in the centres outside Pato with a quick winger outside that and we'd have a deadly flank attack.

 

[Adsy]

Yeah I rate Mannering.

Wish I had him in my virtual team.

 

[shane1970]

I'm 99% sure I heard just the other week during a Warriors game that he had re-signed with them for a few years more.

 

[Karmawave]

If we sign Covell, I'll be cancelling season tickets. :lol:

 

[macavity]

Covell is under rated IMO.

anyway, the article today would indicate that having Taufua re-signed, Doogs is likely to stay on too. hope he does.

 

[Fast Eddie]

I guess there is small possibility that it could be Mannering....but I doubt it.

I have read conflicting reports saying that he is signed until the end of 2009 with others saying he is signed until the end of this season with an option for next year.

There was talk a little way back that he was already getting big interest from other clubs and I'm pretty sure he is holding out on extending his contract like Vatuvei, Rapira, McKinnon, Matulino, Packer, Fai etc have done.

But I'm not sure he would want to leave to play centre with a guarenteed spot in the second row at the Warriors which is his preferred position.

 

[Jono078]

Wow, cant see the Warriors letting Mannering go, he'd be awesome signing for anyone.

 

[Yosh]

Oh... Is Mannering that good? He has a Beaver Menzies look or am I thinking about someone else? Screw everything just sign Hodges hahahaah...

Doogs for one more year is good, hope he keeps up his form. However I still feel McManus should shift into wing...

Hodges? You ever heard of a contract! Mannering would be too expensive. I was hoping Clinton Toopi from Leeds as Brian's brother signed him for Leeds. Again too expensive a player. Speaking of Tony Smith, he is my tip for next Knights coach with big bro being coaching director.

Or scoring any tries with Covell and Mcmanus in our backline.

LOL gotta love that misconception.

Covell is the 6th top tryscorer in the comp this year.

 

[Frederick]

And leading pointscorer which, considering Cronulla have struggled to score points for most of the season, is remarkable

 

[Karmawave]

LOL gotta love that misconception.

Covell is the 6th top tryscorer in the comp this year.

And each try he would of run an average of 2.5 meters with the ball.

 

[Jono078]

Yet you don't seem to like Uate where most of his tries would be an average of 20m with the ball?

 

[General Knight]

Atleast Covell can actually catch the footy for a try.

 

[Adsy]

Does how far you run the ball impact on how many points a try is worth?

Or have I missed something?

 

[Jono078]

Atleast Covell can actually catch the footy for a try.

I'm confused, where does this comment fit in? Is that having a shot at my Uate comment?
