Re: new forward to be announced
:clap: :clap: :clap: it doesnt matter if we did pay £61 grand there isnt many centre/ forwards available and we need one badly. i trust daryl in this signing. We desperatly need 2 more big forwards this is our obvious weakness at the moment. if we do i believe we can have another sucessfull season again next year.
Re: new forward to be announced
Definitely. He is great cover to have for centre and back row. Means we don't have to push Websters body to the edge. Meaning when Webster plays he will be at his best. Means Minikin can stay in his best position on Wing too.classysupercas wrote::clap: :clap: :clap: it doesnt matter if we did pay £61 grand there isnt many centre/ forwards available and we need one badly. i trust daryl in this signing.

Re: new forward to be announced
Very good signing for me. Don't know whether we have paid a transfer or not, but if we have and it is 60k then so what, sometimes you have to take the plunge that way, because if you wait you end up getting no one. Anyhow 60k is nothing today, if you've got the money,and we should have a good few times that much coming in this season. Not counting Solomona's money (a lot offset by Zacs fee) we have had our biggest average attendances for a long time, a record Sky deal like the other clubs, 100k for finishing top, and if we get to Old Trafford a percentage of the gate there, which will dwarf the LLS 100K. so we need to keep things going and if you want to remain where you are, you have to splash out every so often.

How can you never of heard of him if you dont know the name ?Dazzyb wrote:In he Canberra times it says a six figure fee has been paid, so that's surely 100k minimum. It will be announced on Monday also' with A prop from manly to be announced the month after. Don't know the name, never heard of him

[quote="Sharlotiger" we payed Wakey more than that for the likes of Goddard and Flynn a few years back.[/quote]
We got mugged on those deals. Terrible signings!

£175K I think. It was a world record. Crooks was £150K.Tamworth Tiger wrote:Wasnt Steadman about £140 k all those years ago?

Guess we'll see...
And Wakey fans seemed quite content swapping McShane for Scott Moore & look how that turned out! As you say, we'll see. I don't think our coaching staff need to prove their credentials, if they want the bloke that's good enough for me atm.
Re: new forward to be announced
Just say it's a prop from manly. I've never heard of him before and can't recall the name. If waddle is announced on Monday the source has some credibility, so either take it or send it right backfords wrote:How can you never of heard of him if you dont know the name ?Dazzyb wrote:In he Canberra times it says a six figure fee has been paid, so that's surely 100k minimum.

Re: new forward to be announced
Or Marty Taupau
Re: new forward to be announced
Can't say that I know any of the Manly props mentioned above.
However, I recall us being linked with a Manly prop last year named Josh Starling. He left Manly at the end of 2016, moving on a 1 year contract to Newcastle Knights so will be out of contract at the end of 2017.
Not heard anything but just wondering.

Re: new forward to be announced
No - not quite. A six figure sum would be 100K in aussie dollars. About 62K in our money.Dazzyb wrote:In he Canberra times it says a six figure fee has been paid, so that's surely 100k minimum.
Re: new forward to be announced
Fair play on that. Never considered the exchange rate lol
