The Rumours Thread

[Dragsters]

What is he like ? Is he better than Ford or is he more a centre than a back rower ?

He is a centre.

Moga was a prodigious talent in the juniors.

Got his debut with the Rooters if memory serves me.

Has been cursed by injury his whole career.

Last season he got a few games with Souffs.

Has good potential but is yet to realise it.

Perhaps he will with us if he signs...

Moga is coming as a back up 2nd row / centre just like what Curtis Scott was rumoured to

Lomax leaving is bs

That would make the most sense. We could do worse than signing Moga and playing him in the forwards a bit like we did Bird. A good get if we can land him.

 

[Dragsters]

Just found this.

All but confirmed, one year deal...

He's more a centre who can be very damaging with the ball but has had plenty of knee injuries & possibly attitude issues along with a few clubs. Ford probably more solid all round.

Yeah, Woods & Moga will be confirmed by club soon & Sullivan extension isn’t far away - please be patient.

Great news re Sullivan.

Moga is good depth to have - experienced player who has also played at test level

He played only game for Souffs against us in the last round and he played in the backrow in that game so he could also be used there

He played one game for Souths this year (against us) when Bennett rested most of the team - he still could only manage a bench spot and also managed to get himself put on report.
The guy is a huge liability, as I said, 4 knee reconstructions and has only managed to play one entire season out of 9 back in 2017. His defence is woeful ( tackle efficiency hovers around 85% ). I don't know where you see any potential with the guy, I'm finding it hard to think of a worse signing, even Beale is better than Moga, I'd take Lafai back ahead of this guy.
Dragons are fkd, fair dinkum, which shit for brains thought this was a good idea.

 

[redandwhite4evr]

me too

Sounds like there's enough of you around Redcliffe to form a cheer squad when the Dragons play up there.

 

[redandwhite4evr]

Apart from Kit's less than enthusiastic appraisal of Moga, I'm a little concerned that we are targetting the wrong position for depth. IMO, we have only one specialist winger- Ravalawa who is challenged to stay on the park. Ramsey played his junior football at full-back and would probably still prefer to play there and the Feagais, for mine, lack top end pace and are better suited to the centres. Against the Roosters, one of the twins (not sure which one) was nearly run down by Sam Walker when he had clean air but his strength got him over the line.

sloane to the wing to learn for a year?

rw4ever,
i think they are playing 'all" their games out of suncorp ... ( you know corporate $ / tv / etc )

Doubt it- He's shown already he's a gun full-back in attack and will need playing time to develop the specialist communication and positioning skills a FB needs.

Not a fan?

Rumours of jack goskiewski from manly close to signing a 1 year deal. Loving the one year deals, keeps players accountable and if they turn out to be shit then no risk

I think his medical record speaks for itself.

source ?

 

[BIG RIG]

Expect an announcement on the signings of Aaron Woods and Tautau Moga on Tuesday both on 1 year deals

 

[hewi]

Bird also had numerous injuries and knee reconstructions and played the full season other than BBQ gate I think. A one year contract Moga has a lot to prove and best of luck to him, he is a huge unit and I hope he kills it.

Yeah I agree, if he isn’t deemed FG ready I’d rather him play fullback in reserves. He would be wasted on the wing. He needs to become our long term fullback specialist.
