2013 Rumoured and confirmed signings.

[Bearfax]

But Des pre-arranged for Hodkinson to go over the Canterbury didnt he tee hee? Surely he didnt pick the wrong half to steal.

 

[MadMarcus]

Thurston to sign a 4 year deal with cowboys for $5,000,000 on Monday.

Des will be screaming - he needs a quality 1/2 or 5/8 as he cannot win a premiership without one......

He had both. Then he went to the Bulldogs.

That's right. He went for the challenge...

 

[Rambo1987]

My only concern is now Foran or DCE will be Des's targets.....

 

[Bearfax]

Oh he'll find other targets well before those two are available again. Besides though Foran may be interested I doubt DCE would be. For him it would be Manly or a southern Queensland side I suspect.

 

[Shoe1]

Look, Kieran has been at Manly since he was 16 & has decided to stay at Manly twice - firstly in the face of huge interest from Easts a few years back, then Canterbury last year. Why do you think he would waver now, especially when he is contracted for 4 years, and just settled into a new house in Belrose? Snowflake's chance in hell of him leaving for mine.

I thought it was 3 years. In any case, he should be the Manly Captain by then so there is no way he'll be going anywhere.

Yeah you're probably right on the 3 years Bones, but anyway the rest is right, right?

 

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

with thurston staying put, my mail is on Hodkinson to the panthers for a trickle of what they were prepared to offer JT (possibly even mid season if des lets him go).
Good old Pioneer Tavern gossip suggests their back up plan if thurstone didn't come was to try and get Folau and Mateo with the JT money they had planned.

Sea Eagles chasing Bozo
Lots of former players have done well in life and business after football - none more so than Immortal Bob Fulton.
It's why there are moves behind the scenes at Manly to get Bozo onto the Sea Eagles board.
He's played, captained and coached the team to premierships but has always knocked back administration roles.

Manly's godfather Ken Arthurson is behind the move which he hopes will finally bring peace among the directors. Expect an announcement that Bozo will stand for the club board soon.

More to Seymour drama
The Brett Seymour case had made national news in Britain – and it's about to take a dramatic twist.
Seymour crashed his car last week and his wife claimed the former Broncos and Sharks star, now with English club Hull, was attempting to take his own life.
I can't say much because police are currently investigating, but watch the papers in coming days for developments that will create more headlines.

Earl cops a spray
The Josh Dugan / Blake Ferguson drama isn't the only source of tension down Canberra way.
I'm told players and coach David Furner tore strips off flashy winger Sandor Earl after he had an absolute 'shocker' in the loss at Penrith last Sunday.
Earl made error after error and his team-mates let him know exactly what they thought of his effort in ugly scenes in the sheds after the loss.

Hodgson to call it quits?
Former Wests Tigers favourite Brett Hodgson is considering retirement – because a series of head knocks have him suffering memory loss.
Hodgson, famously rag-dolled by Gorden Tallis in Origin football, has been a star for English club Warrington this year but head injuries over the years – and the problems they are causing him – have him contemplating hanging up the boots.

Warriors miss out on Iosefa
The New Zealand Warriors have already pressed the panic button after one loss. The Warriors, without injured hooker Nathan Friend for an extended period, made a bid for Robbie Farah's back-up at Wests Tigers, Masada Iosefa, this week after their heavy loss at Parramatta.
But the Tigers, who will need Iosefa when Farah is on State of Origin duty, knocked back the request.

So I assume that will mean Bozo going to the Football Club board and being the FC rep on the Sea Eagles committee?

Eels couldn't catch a cold. They are certainly not fast enough to catch Pritchard.

Did you not see their win last weekend?

The teams that are totally written off in the pre season by most on this site are usually the ones that do well throughout they year.

See ------------------------------> Bulldogs last year
