Titans target Myles

[patskE]

yeh our chances of getting him now have increased alot
but dammm i would of rathered tonga

[Titanium_BD1103]

You don't need Tonga.. we at the Bulldogs need centres, hence why everyone is so happy to have Tonga and we are looking to sign McKinnon from the Eels, in the hope of moving him to the centres.

I reckon Nate would be a huge asset to the Titans, he is a prop and secondrower, hardworker and he would be a future leader for the club.. what more could you ask for..

Canberra might also be making a play at Myles. He would have worked with Neill Henry at Origin so hopefully that might help us.

[Titanium_BD1103]

Yep I know that Schifty... here is the list of clubs that Bulldogs fans know are chasing Myles...

- Brisbane Broncos
- Cronulla Sharks
- Canberra Raiders
- Gold Coast Titans
- Wests Tigers
- New Zealand Warriors

They are the most prominent... and that is a long list.. he could go anywhere.. I just hope for the sake of me being able to support him he goes to the Titans..

Out to those you would have to say the ones who will go the hardest are the Broncos- To replace Webcke, Tigers- They need to replace Lafranchi and Skando, Titans- They would like a secondrower like him and of course the Raiders- Good buy to help consolidate the pretty good forward pack.

I agree he would be a huge asset to the Raiders as well, help to give them a good strong forward pack.

Almost right with those clubs... Get ready for a fight Gold Coast, because this is going to be one battle for the services of Nate Myles..

Oh and of course: Silly season is about to begin... and it looks like it will be crazy as always...

Myles popular as silly season starts
By Adrian Proszenko

BULLDOGS prop Nate Myles is set to become one of the hottest properties on the open market, with seven NRL clubs chasing the Queensland enforcer's signature.

Myles is almost certain to leave the Bulldogs at the end of the season, with Brisbane, North Queensland, Melbourne, Canberra, Souths, Sydney Roosters and the Gold Coast all queuing up for his services.

The 20-year-old, who debuted for the Maroons in the first State of Origin this year and was outstanding in their 30-6 thumping of New South Wales last Wednesday, will test his value on the open market.

"It looks like he's going to leave (the Bulldogs) . . . he's going to wait for June 30 to expire," Myles's manager, Chris Orr, said.

"He's the only Origin forward in both packs that is off contract.

"All things being equal he would have stayed with the Dogs, but they have salary cap issues and so forth."

The Bulldogs are expected to drop out of the running for promising St George-Illawarra centre Daryl Millard after today re-signing Australia representative Willie Tonga until the end of 2008.

However, Sydney Roosters, the Sharks and North Queensland are all in the hunt for Millard's signature.

Having today signed Parramatta super-sub Dean Widders to a three-year-deal, South Sydney has continued its quest to bolster its roster for next season.

Currently negotiating with Bulldogs prop Roy Asotasi, the Rabbitohs are also hopeful of snaring teammates Myles and Daniel Conn, although it's understood Eels fullback Wade McKinnon has ruled out returning to his former club.

Promising forward Conn has also received expressions of interest from Brisbane Broncos, Gold Coast and Wests Tigers, while New Zealand Warriors are keen on McKinnon, with the Bulldogs also coming into the frame if Luke Patten leaves the club.

The Eels are hopeful of retaining centre Brett Delaney, but there is also interest from the Sharks, Newcastle and Gold Coast.

Despite playing him predominantly in Premier League, the Sharks are hopeful of retaining Richard Villasanti, although the Roosters and the Bulldogs view the former Kangaroo prop as a fallback option if they miss out on Asotasi.

Allan Gainey, manager of Mark Minichiello, said there was not yet a formal offer for his client to re-sign for Souths, with the Titans and Knights keen on his services.

The Titans have also expressed an interest in Penrith duo Michael Gordon and Danny Galea, although they may need to compete with the Tigers and Sharks for Galea, while the Sharks and Warriors have their eye on Gordon.

There is also a chance the duo could be retained by the Panthers if they miss out on St Helens star Jamie Lyon.

There are two clubs interested in promising Wests Tigers winger Taniela Tuiaka if he doesn't re-sign with the premiers.

how can broncs be wanting him. they already have enough for 2 NRL forward packs.

[Titanium_BD1103]

I think it has been suggested as Webcke is expected to retire... honestly they are on the lower end of the scale as to who I reckon will get Nate, unless both they and the Roosters throw big dollars and as Para says, Nate is money hungry... they won't be the top choices.

I reckon out of that list: North Queensland, Canberra and Souths along with of course the GC Titans are favourites to be pressing hard, then again I have never seen the Roosters not chase a top line player..

Some of them are getting pretty old though, Webcke is going, thorn should be! and carlaw... well enough said. Broncos don't need Myles but i think it would be pretty cool if we got him if not the titans.

[Steve Dangerous]

myles is such a good young player.

he's exactly the type of guy we want. no wonder he's being targeted by so many!

[Titanium_BD1103]

Whether you get him is another question entirely... I reckon every club is in with a chance but the newspapers have also been saying it is NQ Cowboys and Canberra are stating that this is their key signing and so will be willing to throw large amounts of money at Myles... so this will be a very very tough battle, I wish the Titans all the best of luck.

[Steve Dangerous]

we definately won't be able to throw him the largest moneybag, but surely the gold coast is a far more attractive living option than canberra or townsville... we got that much on our side at least!

[Titanium_BD1103]

That is true... question of what Myles wants... I don't know frankly... all I do know is a lot of people say its about money... I hope not... not because of what team I want Nate to go to... but more because I see Nate as someone who is more real, not so superficial that it only about the money and the highest price wins.

[Titanium_BD1103]

Ok sure thing Teegy... I will start it now on the other thread... it will be in club order and who they are looking for... the list is shaky IMO though having re-read it... so it might be slight rumour, didn't Kaufusi just re-sign with Melbourne, GC apparently are after him... :lol!:
