New signings

I think we have enough forwards, as stated in another thread yesterday - with the young guys coming through, maybe just one more wrecking-ball or x-factor type player, then another back or half. Halves though - five-eighth next year could be Snake, Killer, Hiku or Gutherson, which means one of the young guys won;t be forced out of the side every week (like Tom T for example). Let's upgrade what we want to keep from the existing squad first.

 

Had enough of Player movements info.

I want the current crop to commit to win every game in 2015

Next year can wait till 5th October

 

Have posted under another thread that we could have a much revamped forward pack if all names are thrown into the hat.
Myles, Api, Lussick, Moa? Brown.....even Lawrence and Buhrer are currently not playing. Plus Addison D and Liam K will be knocking on the door.
Problem for Bozo and Barrett over their coffees is the reserves as our NSW cup side aren't travelling too well.
Who do we keep first? Then you will have an idea of positions to get.
For me a good centre as Killer for five eight, one that can mentor Gutherson/ Ramien and be there when Matai goes. No faith in Hiku as a centre.
Then a second rower in the Guerra/ Cordner mould.
We look pretty good then.

 

I'm sure Bozo has told them some are on thin ice, playing for 2016 and will shortly be in the departure lounge.
If that doesn't make them fire up .......we don't need them.

 

As i said before i think that Penn will wait til Barrett is announced before distracting us with all the signing news. No doubt penns have a pr company helping him lately.

 

One of the issues is that we need to ensure that players like Mateo and Burgess have new contracts with other clubs to free up some money needed to sign new players.

 

I'm sure that won't be a problem, other clubs are probably lining up to sign these two!

 

Moa and Taylor .

 

Is that a guess because previously you've been pretty spot on.

 

Mateo can stay

 

In regards to Tooves, they are taking a slow burn approach. It's already out there that he is not going to be coach, let people go through the emotional cycle that is necessary until they reach a point of acceptance, and then announce it officially. They then announce the other signings to offset any perceived negativity from the Toovey situation.

They will package it all up as a commitment for excellence and improvement leveraging the expertise of a Manly legend in Bozo who has helped identify areas the club needed to address to once again be a highly successful club.

 

Yep and that's when Bozo will announce Brett Fulton as assistant coach.

 

Brett would be better off starting as NSW cup coach - a compromise if you will that will have everyone happy

 

Oh dear, that will be a dark day !!

 

I've been hoping for months that Moa was coming our way - I hope he is. If we add Moa to the other signings, we will be a genuine threat next year. If we add Taylor as well, then we will have multiple selection headaches - but good ones, like it should be. Plenty of options = plenty of depth, which is what we have lacked the last 2 years (as injuries are bound to happen).

 

Agreed. I mean, they couldn't do any worse.

 

Actually the big signing news that hasn't hit the airwaves yet is Sandy the cheer-leading sensation from the USA. I have attached a link for those who don't know her - she's the one on the end closest to the camera. http://www.memecenter.com/fun/112134/Fail

 

I like those 2 signings if we can get them

 

Lucky DCE's backflip was performed much better
