The Rumours Thread

[redVinme]

If we sign no-one I hope we at least front load some contracts. We have heaps off contract this year too and with the club in a bad way trying to fill jumpers is going to be a task even without looking to upgrade.

The Dragons are pleased to announce the signing of Māori All Stars playmaker Paul Turner for the 2023 and 2024 seasons.

God help this sorry mess of a club.

Who is Paul Turner?

 

[redandwhite4evr]

I think he is the son of "Bootstraps Bill Turner" from Pirates of the Caribbean? (Or maybe he is someone else.)

There may be no one fitter than turner.

 

[Crush]

Well what is he 21 or 22. He may be

So young yet his 3rd NRL club.
I’d have thought the bottom 4 Titans would try to hang on to their talented players.
Maybe he’s not very good?
Anyway, welcome to the dragons Paul.

Can't agree with James on this one.

Not huge on the atrocities scale however, terrible look for the club having players hammered at 6:00AM after getting flogged.

They play a brutal sport but they must understand they have some type of responsibility of how to behave. If the "rat" gets their jolly's by leaking to the press, it would be better that there was nothing to rat on.

 

[hewi]

Neither Graham comments not the signing of Turner make me feel any more confident.

 

[Gippsy]

Lets give young Turner a chance eh?

He was Jersey Flegg player of the year in 2019, and, I guarantee he will go better than our incumbent no. 6 this season.

I don't think it's a bad signing but forwards are needed

Interesting talking to an old saints fan who said Billy Wilson used to bite people ties in half and “ killer” Kearney tackled people as they walked down the corridor. I think it was ever thus

Aaaah, the good old days!

Absolutely. Surely we could make a serious play for Luke Thompson and Nathan Brown.

 

[offiah]

True. If it means Jack Birdoesnt run out in the 6 this year, it’s a palatable (if uninspiring) signing. Let’s just hope Bud gets a decent run without injuries and we don’t have to worry about that scenario too much.

 

[Saints Forever]

Is Turner the back up 6 for:

Mbye
Bird
Sullivan
Herring

Or

Hunt’s back up?

Can apparently play 1

 

[carltonsouth79]

Can apparently play 1

Watching the video of him vs Bunnies the commentators said he played centre or fullback in feeder and lower grade sides so versatile
