The Rumours Thread

Josh Coric? 23 year old prop, Dragons junior who was with Wynnum Manly last year.. on instagram doing some off-season training with Kerr and the Couchmen. Back into the fold maybe? Wynnum Manly made the prelim in the Q Cup and Coric won their player of the year award.

Let's hope we have bigger and better things planned otherwise we're in deep trouble.

agree we need bigger and better but always liked Coric, really good junior that got hammered by injuries, maybe just needed some playtime to get going again.

Coric maybe putting his hand up for a T & T contract??
Some players from a lot of teams will be back for preseason training starting today and during the coming weeks.

 

[Slippery Morris]

There was alot of talk of Coric becoming a regular FG at Saints in his junior days then injuries hit. Last year may have done him some good. T&T contact would be a good start as he is still young.

Shit if Coric is our big signing we better get some Grange Final tickets.

Seems to me that they realise in the short term we have no hope so we need to build from the bottom up which will take 3/4 years. Meanwhile will the fans stay loyal will the coach survive.

Sydney Roosters youngster set to be squeezed out of the club

He made his NRL debut in 2025.

This one probably has more legs than my Coric speculation. Va'a has a close relationship to Daniel Anderson. 114 kg and 195 cm. Large lad.. would make losing Klemmer easier to bear

I'm hoping that we're aiming for a top middle atm to supplement what we have. We've got enough of our own young forwards coming through.

I heard we have signed a Rooster....Demetrius Kilisimasi

The challenge for Coric, if you look at the pics he is pretty small compared to Kerr and Couchies. Like Blake lawrie, great junior who stopped growing and was overtaken by bigger bodies. A bit like that cup front rower who killed it a GF that we signed.. Luke someone think… never went any further stepping up to NRL

Needs to happen we need someone and he could be a great buy.

I’ve heard 900k will land Keaon. I’d do that. We need an alpha prop and he can be that for us. Better value than Tino at 1.5m

I believe we will go to that but let's be honest if Souths come close to that he will stay. I think our only chance is if we trump them on the length of contract I think it needs to be a 4 year offer.

 

[dragon thomo]

No I would go to 1 mil for him. His stats suggest he would be a very good front rower. Has a good motor

You can just tell that if you give him 4 years that you'll get effort for the term unlike some other big $ long term signings.
