Dom Young

[Ben]

Mentioned in Rumours Dom Young on his way to Manly so obviously deserves its own thread.
What a back line we have if this comes to fruition.

Can anyone shed some light on this rumour?

Rumours or wishful thinking?

All I have found is that five NRL clubs are actively chasing him. Manly is one of them. His management not looking at offers until after the World Cup. Would be nice if there was more too it, but it's just interest at this stage.

I remember his name being mentioned as a potential replacement for if the knights attempted to pursue Garrick. Now that we have secured Garrick and have mentioned him playing centre I wouldnt mind seeing Young on the wing.

that is a horny backline

Would be a great pickup and with Parker and Harper off contract don't see why it would be feasible.

*all for 24 obvs

Huge fan of Dom Young, but this has to be wishful thinking. After the World Cup, his price would have skyrocketed, and I don't think we'd be in a position to pay big bucks for a winger. Nor do I think we should be paying big bucks for a winger. We have plenty of other issues in the roster to address first.

 

[R3]

There is no chance we will get Dom Young.
Especially not after his world World Cup performances.
The usual banked-up/backed-up clubs like the Bulldogs & Roosters- even the Dolphins will throw good money and him. We can't afford what his manager will be chasing now
We're a season too slow

 

[Damien2812]

The club needs to prioritise signing a gun hooker and forward before another winger.

 

[Disco]

Young has been playing this way the whole year, world cup wont be changing too much.

 

[Sheikheagle]

He wouldn’t come cheap and traditionally we have not broken the bank for wingers. Perhaps seibold sees things differently.

 

[KNUCKLES]

Half the teams England have played wouldn't beat many NRL squads. I highly doubt as a winger his form would add to much to his market value

 

[Lyonstomenzies]

We need props. Ours aren’t cutting the mustard

Wishful thinking that started on this forum; transmogrified into a rumour, now being reported as ‘fact’.

That’s how it goes.

That is the best word I've seen here all year, well played!

I swallowed a thesaurus when I was a youngster.

 

[Shoe1]

Can he play hooker?

 

[Nordburg]

Can he play hooker?

Well some people on ST think DCE should move to 9 so why not try Young

 

[maxta]

Still a chance, though there will be competition and the fact Garrick signed which I mentioned also in signings a week before it became public, obviously effects this situation based on the fact Newcastle wanted Garrick.

The Knights would be crazy to let him go,unless he’s asking crazy money,but they are trying to make room in the cap for Brooks and Tesi Nui,not that Nui would be breaking the bank
