2014 Rumoured and confirmed signings.

[RiverEagle]

Sitting, waiting somewhere today (NOT at a barber's, lol) the Friday edition of the Daily Telecrap was there; so I had a brief look at the sport.

Only James Hooper and Josh Massoud's names adorn the section (so stories or snippets aren't always claimed anyway).

Main relevant story (paraphrasing): We've been saying for a long time Brett Stewart's off to the Dogs. Well that deal's been blown-out-of-the-water by an offer "too good to refuse" from Canberra. Snake IS off to the Raiders next year (pending an "expected" release from Manly).

On the same page they had a small piece on JSL, and his part-time security work (which we've known about for 18 months at least) as if it was "recent and newsworthy".

Likewise a little dig about the Wolfman "going missing in action yet again" from Manly... "Last we heard he's lost his drive for rugby league and is heading OS soon for a music festival".

Going on a holiday may well be true (and a good idea for David) but I closed the paper and muttered something to myself, which I can't repeat here.

Wolfie was seen training with the extended Manly group (in the background doing sprinting drills it appeared) just the other day on FoxSportsNews.

Make of all that what you want to.

Personally, as far as credibility and usefulness goes (for that newspaper) I wouldn't even clean my B-B-Q with it folks.

 

[TWO DOGS]

Maybe one day some players will want to stay on the beaches.

---

I have a feeling that the one person who probably has the biggest reason to leave is the only one who won't. Brett Stewart.

---

Stevo, my thought too on Brett. The recent interviews with him have been very positive. Let's hope he stays.

Yep definitely hope Snake stays and finishes with Manly.

One Stewart wearin' green is more than enough.

So many untapped Ian Roberts out there.

He was tough

[HappilyManly]

Manly Daily has BJ confirming that he will be at Manly for 2015+2016

Great personality in the Ballin mold

NRL gossip on Facebook has fui fui being close to signing with a club in the English super league after turning down offers from manly and penrith because he couldn't play against parra! A sign were actively looking for a prop!

Yeah, we definitely could use one more big-bopper; if we've got the cash.
(Starlo, Lui, JSL etc. should be better next year too, don't forget)

I'm not giving up on Hame Luaki yet either (though I don't know if he'll be at Manly next year yet anyway).

Same with Dan Harrison. (I know it was an elimination-final and he'd be more fired-up than a regular season game). But I really liked his effort on Sat night.

Can anyone confirm, or clarify, if he's legit leaving Us??

(Rumour was awhile ago he was off to the UK too)

I doubt you will find many untapped though ,probably the opposite.

(EDITED)

Nothing to see here. Christmas is coming, ho ho ho.

 

[RiverEagle]

Thank you @Jethro

Pity he's off to the London Broncos; but the way they've been going in recent times - very ordinary - he might come back to Brookie, sooner rather than later.

Ben Farrar was on their books a few months ago too. (Not sure if he's still there) but the London Broncos are struggling.....far more than Parramatta, too!

(Where Daniel didn't last long with either). *Good Luck to Daniel, and well-played Saturday night.

Ive heard we are close to signing joseph paulo from eels.

It was reported that he was staying with the eels. Possibly beign released to us to free up cap space so they can sign Watmough?

Would bringing Lussick back into the fold make sense?
