The Rumours Thread

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

Hope Lomax is not about to say good bye, time will tell.

Hope not his misso has gone to the Rorters, I can just see him now signing for them on the cheap and all his sins instantly forgotten by the toxic losers absolutely blasting us right now.

 

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

So Vaughan out one door and in the other
As early as this week?
we al knew it would happen

Yep and the big issue I have is that everyone is blasting the Dragons right now, but the club has done nothing but the right thing while everyone is going to end up with the players who committed the offences on the cheap and you won’t hear squat. It is extremely disappointing to say the least.

Why “another month” ?

Aparently as they have not signed the document they have to isolate for 14 days and then when and if they go up and join the team they have to isolate again for 14 days. Dont know why they have to do another 14 days but I guess to join the bubble they have to ??

Don't know why they would have to no one else has to. Sounds like more media bullshit to make it look worse

Anything to punish I think

Why “another month” ?

RedVee I was going by the report on Foxs - they said that the pair were currently in a 14 day lockdown , but should the situation change then they would still be required to do another 14 days before being eligible to enter the bubble in Queensland .

So that would equate to another 3 weeks , being early August before they could join the team once again .

I have only just now seen SAP58’s reply which is correct .

I'm still waiting on the NRL to get the QLD SQUAD or at the very least Jai arrow to sign a statement saying that no other players come in contact with this "dancer".

I don’t think Lomax is going anywhere he’s still got another 3yrs to go on his contract.

Agree Cupper , one would expect just that , more so considering that the entire Queensland would had come into physical contact with Arrow after his midnight rendezvous with the lady of the night .

 

[redandwhite4evr]

Nice thought but you wont get him away from Melb

Maybe- but it's common for top players like Joey, Cronk etc to be involved with a couple of clubs and he wouldn't need to be full-time. Also, according to Vautin, Slater was prepared to accept an offer to coach the Maroons but it never eventuated. After what he achieved to turn Papenhuysen from a good full-back to an exceptional one I'd throw the cheque book at him.

Not to mention the tourists

Probably right- but if he's offside with the other players from the Weekend at Paul's and Jessica is in his ear about how great the Roosters are and he starts agitating for a release, I might be tempted into a player swap with Joey Manu. Zac is good but has some mistakes in him and from what I hear, Sullivan is a gun goal kicker.

Shame he’s missed essentially the entire season this year.

Pap is not afraid of the collisions, unlike Dufty.

Agree
As Ive mentioned previously Dufty should have seeked slaters input if he was serious to improve and be the best he could have been . The club should make an effort to pay slater a consultant fee to help . Now in retirement he is a free mercenary agent to offer services all over the place if he wants. Money always talks . If not interested get Mick Potter , he wouldnt be expensive if he is not tied to a club

The Club approached Slater at the start of 2020 but he rejected the offer.
Just because a player or ex player is not at the club doesn’t automatically mean we never approached them.

With ex-Storm players you've got to make a second set of offers.

Well if Slater rejected our offer - poo poo to him then! Too big for his boots. He missed out on getting the Maroons coaching job so suck your thumbs Slater.

Well George D has at least given me hope that this club is thinking outside the square in trying to recruit Slater. Billy must have thought Duf was a lost cause?
