The Rumours Thread

[TheRev]

I wouldnt rule signing both out either.. its just I dunno if we have enough money/positions to make it happen, we have Ravalwa, Allan, Feagai, Ctui, SFinau & possibly Sloan all on file 'right now' as wing (and ctr) backup, plus we do actually have 2 young wingers in development in Williams/Kirk... so we would have to clear some.. and probably get some money back in the process.

With Lawson, his top speed is good, but I dunno about acceleration (hes a huge unit too), thats what makes a huge difference in league. I wouldnt put him in JAC's class.. but hes an intriguing prospect.. and gonna be a lot of fun watching his progress, and just hoping he turns into a Warbrick style convert.. i.e. more than just a bog average winger that we're used too.

I think Finau will be moved on personally

 

[BIG RIG]

I reckon Rava will get moved on at some stage , Flanno is making moves behind the scenes

 

[BigRedVee]

The writing is on the wall for Rava and the same will happen with Lawrie when we sign another big middle.

Flano is doing a great job of shuffling the deck chairs.

 

[Jeremy Dragon]

No need for JAC now, and I think if we get players from Union it doesnt count into our salary cap, if he is as good as what they say he is , it puts a lot of others on notice, well done again Flanno.

Yes it does

 

[Crush]

Hope Hunt goes to Roosters to play 7, the pressure on him will be immense.
And he will fail. And it will be delightful.

 

[justadragon]

Home sick eh ?
Benny boy, you are a fraud.

To think we disgraced our jersey with this flog as our captain, that should give Griffin nightmares for the rest of his life.

 

[justadragon]

Yes it does

Yes to which one JD, putting the players on notice or it does affect our cap ?

You do know what that expression means ?

 

[JubileeJeffro]

Nor his baggage...

Baggage or bags…

This guy has top quality RL player written all over him I reckon.

PS:
I remember the day I saw Michael O'Connor's first RL game. I rang a mate and said I've just seen the start of the career of one of the greatest RL players to play the game.

I like the look of him too mate.

 

[Ronnie Dobbs]

By all reports it seems Lawson has been signed on a Development Deal , which is great moving by Flanno giving us space in the Top 30

There would be dispensation if this is the case.

Could make great money in Europe or Japan just playing rugger.

The Big O. Sorely missed. So good old Roy the Boy. The Taj did get the good ones there to go with good food and the grog and of course better footy results in general.

Roy Orbison played at St George Leagues back in the day? What year would that have been? Could hardly imagine this given the state of it now. Would be lucky to get a Roy impersonator there now.

I have heard St George Leagues club was actually a "hot" night spot back in the 60s. Very difficult for us younger folk to imagine.

It is as hard as imagining that Kamahl was ever a thing.

What happens when Sam Walker comes back mid season

Cap but as a development player it has different ramifications as far as Top 30.. unless you want to move in Top 30 when the cut off around June30? To add development player if space available

 

[JubileeJeffro]

What happens when Sam Walker comes back mid season

C(unt) moves to 9

14

Cap

Thanks mate, I thought getting players from Union was a free hit, which was the blow up for Manu at the rorters .

 

[justadragon]

Why are people being so unkind
