And if by some chance he has agreed to a Sharks deal, even if it was a week ago, there's no way it would be announced until after we play them this weekend. In saying that I reckon he'll end up a Broncos because they are even more desperate than us.

My point exactly (and they were his words), that line proves most of the journos don't know what Reynolds is thinking today and it might well be changing by the day. They get mail for sure, but remember most of the 'inside word' is dropped by managers or others who need to get a message out...

Crawley wrote this morning it is looking like he will be a Bronco. He didn't say he'd agreed. Crawley's article was probably written after it emerged the Sharks had upped their offer dramatically. Hooper has said in his live blog only 15 mins ago it is 50 50 with Broncos slight favourites...

I thought I'd be devastated by last night's loss but I'm not. Firstly because it was so predictable but secondly finishing 7th and losing that game is a fair reflection of the way the team played the whole season. They couldn't win more than 2 in a row, they played well in the Canberra game...

Like everyone I'm extremely frustrated by what's been dished up the last four weeks. Extraordinary to think three weeks in a row we out score the opposition in tries and against the Storm with all the Smith hoopla we actually led them on tries 3-2 at one point the second half. The year is...

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this aspect. Nominations for board positions closed before the salary cap decision was announced and clear cheating was confirmed. Members of the current board including the Chairmen were on the board when clearly the club went to great lengths to cheat, even...

You can easily see the day that if the club has financial problems and issues with the developer the only 'out' will be to sell the stadium's land itself (that's the only asset left) which the developer then builds more units on. I can see it happening sadly and god help the club if it does...

A word on the other forum Darren Mooney could be coming back. I've no idea if that's the case, but would be a good thing.

I don't know too much about him other that he has an exceptional record with building Tradies into a dominant club, which is great for our future. The worry is previously he had little interest in the football side of our business, to the point one of the reasons the deal to merge the two...

Yes Tim McAleer from Tradies who we were told was the CEO of the Leagues Club only, not the Football club. Apparently he is a very good operator in the club industry despite his questionable dealings with the Sharks over the years. Who is guiding the NRL club now, which is a multi million...

I was concerned when Lyall Gorman left that there would be a void. Most people didn't seem too worried hoping Gorman had set in place a professional structure that will see the organisation continue to thrive, but there are questions about that. I'm hoping the club is about to make major...

WOW It changes by the day but this story comes from a credible journo who is now nrl.com chief reporter, not some namesless person on twitter. Fingers crossed. http://www.nrl.com/sharks-now-favourites-to-sign-pearce/tabid/10874/newsid/116665/default.aspx

Buzz Rothfield said on 360 tonight last week he thought he was certain to go to Manly but now because of the salary cap issues he's not so sure. Said he'd be meeting with both the Sharks and Knights for a second time this week. However with Matty Johns on the panel they all put the hard word on...

I reckon Moylan is a good signing, but we are diving into the unknown. He has played half a season as a five eighth. If we team him up with Pearce we will contend no doubt.

Yes with Thurston injured I'd forgotten about this existance Sorry I thought this was a forum where one could express opinion. We are just a season since winning the comp and we've seen the best CEO we've ever had and now our premiership winning half leave, sorry if that appears to be whinging...
