Wing

 

[Thresher]

I'd like to see him in a pre-season playoff for the number 1 position.

 

[HaroldBishop]

I'll take a stab and say it's either Phil Sigsworth or Olsen Filipaina. Love a good comeback story.

 

[CrazyMatt]

Wing

LOL.

Let’s say there is a three way swap involved in us getting JAC. Xerri to roosters, Mitchell to storm, JAC to Sharks. Would anyone take that swap?

 

[Tiger Shark]

Nope

 

[Western Sharkie]

NO!

I wouldn't doubt that this rumoured player is Bird. Its obvious he's not happy where he is.
Noticed something interesting on instagram the other day. Chad had posted a video of his grand final ring, to which Bird has commented
"how good brother time fliesssss"
Chad told Bird that he missed him. Now the part that i found interesting came next. A random Sharks fan has replied to Jacks/Chads comment with this..
"I think Sharks fans do (miss Bird) Sometimes money isn't everything. Happiness is a strange balance"
Jack Bird liked that comment. Is that not him agreeing, that he left for money, but would have been happier had he stayed with us.
I think he has learnt a life lesson, and if he were to return he wouldn't be the same, selfish, egotistical player he was when he left. The problem is we have no space for him. I don't see where we can fit him in the lineup

Tough one to answer. Xerri is young /local junior we can see his ability. he can be a super star the next ET. Yet JAC has the runs on the board
Could bring experience and leadership.

Hohoho Merry Christmas.

John Morris has spun his magic and secured a SOO Rep quality player for 2020 season.

Currently on contract. Few more issues to resolve. But player has purchased property in Shire.

Not Latrell

can you shed some more light on this mate

I'd be happy to move on Moylan or Dugan to pick up JAC but not Xerri.
We are more than covered in the centres (overstocked tbh) so if Moylan goes, Dugan moves to FB until his contract expires (but we need to find the next Holmes or Barba very soon to take over).
If Dugan goes, same as above but with Moylan.

He's only played 60 odd more games than Xerri - I wouldn't really call that added experience.

And personally leadership is something I don't associate with JAC.

 

[Gumby]

**** no to releasing xerri.
that bloke needs a 3 year extension put in front of him immediately

 

[Gumby]

i don't see bird coming back. we need props/2nd rowers not a centre who want to play everywhere but centre.

 

[puma1355]

Bird will only return for a player swap for Moylan

 

[Western Sharkie]

We don’t need Bird.
JAC for Moylan is a yes for mine but Bird is not required IMO.

 

[HaroldBishop]

Ummm no to releasing Xerri.
