2018 Squad, Signings and Rumours Thread

The Moles TRoberts rumour hasn’t gained oxygen at all
I think it’s dead and buried

I’m pretty sure the club have already declared it is not going to take Norman

Warrington have released him to "head back to Australia" at the end of 2019 so sounds like we'll likely get him next year and not before June 30.

Whats this about Corey Norman? Thought we werent going to take others trash anymore.

Are you talking about the post by Ali's rumours on Facebook? Not a chance that it is true, haven't seen Ali get a rumour correct yet.

You seriously did not think I was saying for this year. How can you interpret it any other way than me saying this:
The Mole got his rumour wrong wrong wrong and The Termite will not be coming here this year, next year, never ever.

No I knew what you were saying Bods, but I was saying that I do think he will be here next year. Sorry to ruin your night haha

How much money would you be willing to bet on that Bodsy?

Nah I’m not confident enough to bet my hard earned on a vibe
I’m taking the Cowards option on that challenge

According to Foxsports we have 27 players in our squad including Vaivai who I thought we let go.

Vaivai-turn it up.

Is Maika Sivo on a contract with the Panthers? worked with Brennan last year and picked in NSW Residents.

Could be someone to look at...

^^ I wasn’t doubting you Titanic just doubting the accuracy of your source. I think he plays in the 2nd division in England.

[Titanic]

No problem Bodsie ... I was just pushing the "we haven't filled our roster and time is running out" barrow.

[Detwelve12]

Pretty sure the spots will be given to qcup players. Excess salary will be put in front end of some bigger names to free up cash for the next 2 years.

For what it’s worth given the maybe half a dozen or so QCUP games I’ve seen this year and where I think we need depth I’d give those three spots to Josh Ailomai, Sami Saluima and Troy Leo.

I’m a Seagulls man so I’m a bit annoyed I couldn’t find a spot for a Tweed Heads player.

It's only The mole but still a rumour that we are looking to offload Bryce...

Well that will make for an expensive mistake. Fingers crossed.
