Player movements and rumours

  1. Fiery GR Smith

    That would be good actually.

    Think I suggested it half-jokingly on here recently.

    Foran + Johnson = :fap:

    No club says have a holiday & break from the pressures of the NRL like the New Zealand Warriors.

    Probably the best thing for Foran.
     
  3. Tartmaster AJ James

    Dat salary cap tho.
     
  4. Julian BJ Taylor

    looks a shadow of his former self this year IMO.
     
  5. Cribbage RG Cribb

    That was true of Tariq too and he played his best game in years last week. That Newcastle side as a whole is making a lot of players look worse than they are IMO.
     
  6. Julian BJ Taylor

    Yeah Rochow was a light footed line running second rower. Now he's a not so agile middle third man who's played about 30% of matches in 2 seasons.

    Luke Walsh -> Manly apparently.

    Thing is, don't they already have Blake Green? If I were Parramatta for example, I'd be targeting him hard.

    Blake Green is meh. Made to look a lot better than he is.

    Catfish has played his last game. Bit of a cunt, who never really excelled at rep level but he's one of the best club centres I've ever seen. Well done on a very fine career.
     
  11. Cribbage RG Cribb

    He's definitely better than he was when he left for the UK, and not every reserve grade hero can fit into Melbourne's structure like he did (Hampton and Roberts were flops) but yeah I'm inclined to agree anyway.
     
  12. Ged GEC King

    I have heard a few rumours and it makes complete sense that the Cowboys will sign Jacob Lillyman. He'll take unders to go back to the club he started at and have a last crack at a premiership in a good side. It also makes sense for the Cows with Tamou leaving and a couple of young blokes probably a year or two off first grade. I get the feeling Hannant will leave.

    I could get around a middle third rotation of Scott, Lillyman, Taumololo, Bolton, Hess, Kaufusi

    I dunno about Hess up the guts. I agree that he's a better player than Asiata overall but I see him much more as an edge forward. I think I'd rate Asiata the better middle third player.

    Matt Gillett ---> Warriors nearly sewn up
     
  15. Julian BJ Taylor

    Fuck that'll be the end of him then.
     
  16. Fiery GR Smith

    Yeah hopefully finish his career with us, helping us to some titles on the way.
     
  17. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    There's just some clubs you avoid like the plague.
     
  18. Old Mate M Perry

    Nearly sewn up you say? Everything I've read seems like it's no where near sorted.
     
  19. Fiery GR Smith

    Think you'll find there are dozens of Australian ex-Warriors who enjoyed their spells at the club and would strongly disagree with that. Living in NZ > Aus after all.

    All about the moolar really though isn't it? Reckon we would pay him about 600k...which is probably a significant increase on what he's currently getting at the Broncos.
     
  20. Tartmaster AJ James

    Weren't that Dragons throwing the chequebook at him?
