The Rumours Thread

We need someone with a great long kicking game because I don't see our side winning the field position battle next year, especially against top 8 sides. less running meters combined with an average long kicking game puts us under the pump big time. LKT doesn't have the long kicking game & atko looks more like a runner than a kicker but hope I'm wrong.

Go hard for someone like Savala, gun kicker & a genuine halfback but big unit so could slot into a ball playing lock too. I'd also go after Campbell, along with Mooney. Younger players with upside but can be genuine starters in a top 8 side. We should be building our roster to challenge for top 8 then top 4, right now we're competitive but it's not a top 8 roster.

Campbell and Mooney would be lovey pick up’s

Campbell and Mooney would be lovey pick up’s

The 2 players I would love the most of who appears to be available (subject to the rumoured release).

Mooney would need an upgrade on his current contract, and Campbell we would need to pay all of the 2026 contract and not sure what we would pay him ongoing... not sure if we are a chance on either..

This is our second go at Doueihi. It’s a shame but if he wants to stay were he is good luck to him. Move on.

Don’t try again

People losing their minds over a player who has literally played 1 great game this year. Looking at this (and past seasons) years stats, hardly worth getting boiled up about missing his signature, and we missed his signature mainly due to.........yep you guessed it, the commute! He was not willing to relocate away from his family.

Would he have been a decent pick-up? for sure, but hardly in 'marquee' class.

Let's give DA some time to get his feelers out there and shake a few trees. Still 3 months before the silly season of recruitment begins.

We really should be odds on to sign Mooney. The location excuse should not come into it. And we surely have more cap space than the knights.

I agree, it is on Flano because he tried to recruit the guy to play in a position we have covered when he is a better half than anyone we currently have...

Doueihi said all along that his preference was to stay at the Tigers. That's it nothing to see here.....move along.

Mooney style would compliment our current & future pack too. Aggressive but agile, has a bit of prick in him too.
