2015 Rumoured and confirmed signings.

[MightyEagles]

OMG That is what we need!!!! Great news...we could do with a winger... finally Joe Kelly making some shrewd decisions. Let's immediately show the door to Wolfman, Hiku, Blair, Gutherson, Taufua, Tommy T and anyone else who has ever played on the wing. The club is moving forward. Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeext!!!!!!!!!

 

[TWO DOGS]

God help us! We have $2m to spend & this is the best we come up with.

I have serious fears for this once great club!

It's for this season Blowfly, so nothing to do with recruitment for next year. I think he has heaps of ability and will go well for us.

Agreed, I reckon he would do a job for us for sure.

Common sense reply . This guy averaged 165 metres a game when he was playing nrl last year . How many of our players can do that . He is also big enough and versatile enough to play in the backs or forwards .

 

[BirdMan4ever]

vidot has a maiden year for broncos as did tafua.
he is big yes, but slow, we alrady have the slowest winger in the comp in blair and hiku.
any winger can take a ball from snake, matai and killer and score in the corner.
a winger needs to bring his own skill
1. secure the high ball
2. have speed
3. positional defense to cover the fullback
4. Make meters to hit the ball up and take pressure off the big boppers.
Vidot only ticks no.4. from what ive seen which places him no better than Blair and tafua. I would say No,. bring on T.Turbo. .

Sam Thaiday facing $100k pay cut and demoted to the bench for the broncos
Might be a good buy for us ???

How can a club cut his pay if he has a contract?
And 'No' - he is not what Manly needs.

 

[BOZO]

Do you even watch the game? or are your eyes painted on? First you think Vidot is a good signing and now Thaiday any more trash the broncos can dump on us?

When Vidot was playing nrl last year I saw him playing strong making plenty of metres something our team is lacking . Thaiday is a proven player and may need a club like ours to bring out the best in him again . Both only at the right price

Yeah Vidot was a weapon last year. I don't know what games Desert Boot has been watching.

 

[ManlyMit]

Thaiday?? No thanks!!

 

[Freagle]

Yeah, could never like Third-man-in Thaiday enough to support him. Vidot though could certainly do a job. As a bench forward he could cover wing and centre injuries as well. TBH he could probably do a similar job to JSL (sorry, so many acronyms), but if he can bend or break the line we're a step ahead.

I'm sorry but I can't share your enthusiasm on this!

 

[EagleFlys]

Media have only really linked us to Maloney (we lose him to the paper bags in Bondi) and Elgey (GC/NRL throw us a bone and we get the kid).

Vidiot was a new one mentioned only because of Jorge/Guthos injuries. Nothing will come of it I hope - just a paper selling exercise.

I think Joke Kelly has selected his 2 (Maloney/Elgey) and once again has no backup plan other than that. Can't argue with the choices though.

 

[BOZO]

SMH :

The Titans are preparing to swoop on Corey Norman if the Eels five-eighth is forced to move on from Parramatta.

Gold Coast have identified Norman as the man to partner Daly Cherry-Evans as they step up their aggressive recruitment drive for next year.

While the Eels at this stage have no intention of releasing Norman – who is contracted until the end of next year – the Titans are patiently watching as the Eels juggle their salary cap.

 

[BOZO]

And 'No' - he is not what Manly needs.

That means a pay cut for next year if he wants to re sign with the broncos .

Manly anr in battle with the titans to nab Elgey and have made an offer of two years to the titans three.

 

[StuBoot]

Nooo hope not, he will be a 1st grader one day. He is still listed on our Holden Cup page so here's hoping he is staying

Offer three years ffs, surely he'll turn out better than MCK and we gave him three years.

 

[dowdz]

Funny, how a club that was in a heap ff debt, now have a ton of money. Maybe the Penns plan is to do the same with Manly, then let the NRL take control lol

 

[tookey]

Knowing our management we haven't a chance of signing him
