Warrriors attempt to poach Manly five-eighth Blake Green to cover loss of Kieran Foran

[NLSeaEagle]

we could get him for less than $500,000 & a testimonial match,
just like the other two

Not with the crowds at Brookvale...............we'd need 3 or 4 ;-)

 

[the mauler]

Tyrone may.

Very impressed with him.

Fox Sports’ chief NRL reporter James Hooper dropped the bombshell on NRL Tonight on Friday that Moylan may be disgruntled with the Panthers and possibly considering a move.

While Moylan has played most of his career at fullback, the Penrith captain wants to make a permanent shift into the halves – something that was met with resistance from Griffin and Gould earlier in the season.

Santa, read my letter

Baz, do what you need to do

Poo, work your charms

Api, get Moylie to backflip to the Northern Beaches

 

[Sea Eagle 4 Life]

Let him go and sign Cooper Cronk with the salary cap space it frees up.

Oh hang on, we're not Parra or the Roosters...

Or Broncos

 

[Chuck]

There could be a few 5/8's available come seasons end.Ones that can fill a void for a yr or 2 until younger players come through

None that are currently off contract next year, and certainly none even close to Greens talent. Slim pickings and not just at 5/8 either.

Kicking problem solved also

 

[Simonmyers11]

Very impressed with him.

He is a gun. Will be better than cleary and off contract next year. Great defender too.

 

[Holmsey]

Green cannot go until we have a better player to replace him with who is an organisational and game management half.

Is this why the Panthers are happy to offload Moylan?

 

[Smokin Joe]

Trent Hodkinson could be an option....Knights want to offload his contract and are prepared to pay some of it out with a year to run.He is on 600k next year,if we get him for 300-350k it is pretty much a swap for Greens' contract.Hodkinson is a better defender,better organizer,better passing and kicking game,is an 80% goal kicker.Does not take on the line much but if we are looking for an organizing foil for Cherry and at 28 yrs old.....He can also play dummy half in an emergency and with Winterstein,Sironen able to play centre and five eighth in an emergency we could stop playing poo off the bench too.

 

[HappilyManly]

Hodko's body is way past it

The fact that the Knights have had zero expectation on them, meant that he could take the field and waft around.

 

[ricardo]

Trent's eyes remind me of the demons in Supernatural ... apart from that I'd happily take him if fit

I think he had a leg problem which he seems to be over now,still has something to offer.I think that the only reason Brown is not a fan is that he seems to want running halves,not a guy who is primarily an organizer which ironically is what we want....He has been in good form lately and running a bit and taking on the line from the few games I have seen,maybe that coincides with Knights recent form?He has the running halves he wants now in Lamb,Cogger,Watson and maybe Ponga too and wants to clear cap space to strengthen other areas.

 

[tookey]

The warriors can have Green and Brown and we can sign Moylan

Cronk goes ok

 

[desreturnoftheking]

He hasn't been as good since he was rested for the St Merge game. I suspect the body is packing up. He's not much of a tackler but his goal line kicking gaining repeat sets was his biggest asset. The injury appears quad related and hence the repeat sets have gone out the window. Age isn't kind to such injuries.

he's done 3 forty twentys in 2 games and is instrumental in guiding us around the park

 

[desreturnoftheking]

Based on what I have seen of Hastings during his playing career he is clearly not the answer. Other than being a speculative buy I can't see why we added him to our roster.

Green has been good value and we'd miss him if released. There is no obvious replacement.

he's a good back up but that's all really

 

[Chuck]

Cronk goes ok

1 decent player who we have no hope of signing and doesn't play Green's position. Who else?

The halves are interchangeable. Green is essentially playing halfback and Cronk and Cherry would work a treat.

If Green goes and we have cap space then I'd love him for one year while we give young Metcalf a year with Blacktown to see how he fares.
