(Archived) THE RUMOUR MILL - Player Movement

[Capital_Shark]

Just putting it out there.

All our forwards are bench players - Nikora,Williams,Rudolph,Wilton,Talakai.

I can’t see any of them being genuine starting NRL players tbh apart from BHU maybe who’s shown he can handle starting at a decent level

Next year or ever?

 

[Blix]

We've got Royce Hunt too
He goes alright

Looking forward to seeing how he goes……also Pele will be interesting (probably went down a year of development)

However these 2 are the type of players we need at the moment “big bobbers”

Just wish they could invest in a couple marquee props.

I don't really see Wilton or Nikora as impact bench players. They should be able to play the full game at similar intensity. It's not like they are built like a Talakaipotamus.

I think one of Williams or Rudolf should be able to progress to be a good starting prop.
At the moment I'd probably look at staring Finucane and Rudolf and use BHU as impact for Finucane (maybe like a 50/30 split), and Williams as a bit more of a solid player sharing with Rudolf (more similar time on park).

TBH I wouldn't mind a Finucane/Williams start and BHU Rudolf rotation if Williams can keep up/build on his good form from this year (and assuming he isn't **** when he starts). Rudolf and BHU would bring a lot of energy off the bench.

Then Hunt/Talakai are more of the wild card impact player. If Cam needed a break quite a few of these players can fill back into 13 easily enough for them to come on (at a loss of ball playing and overall quality).
Talakai or Jack can also go wider to edge if we identified a need to try and throw some size at someone, although Talakai better suited for this role (suggesting him on the edge as more of a matchup choice).
Fifita, Pele and likely another signing or re-signing or two become depth.

A better starting prop is still an improvement I'd be more than happy with.

Next year or ever?

My bad - I meant by next year.

I don’t think any of them could be genuine starters in the long term except maybe Wilton and Uele.

At the same time all these guys haven’t had the best coaches in Morris and Hannay to develop their game so they could completely go up in levels with a good coach

 

[Gumby]

Need Fifita to retire to free up 750k then throw that at sims and Napa/James.

 

[Capital_Shark]

Napa must perform in my blind spot because I don't see any worth in him.

Someone give me a couple attributes they see Napa providing.

Fitz would have a decent idea if he was worthwhile or not
And I guess second attribute… red hair

 

[Proud Shark]

Napa would be for Newtown unless there were injuries. Pele can play in the same role Napa would offer.

 

[apezza]

sims is a no brainer, gotta be all in

get luke thompson as well

the less of our forwards from this year that dont play next year, the better

I like Sims in Origin but have a lot of Dragon mates who can't stand him. They say he goes missing in most games.

I like Thompson but he needs to be careful as he gets suspended a lot.

He can find a hole

I forgot that guy even existed

napa is dreadful

i saw segy in cronulla the other day, he has been in a huge burger shop

no chance he signs with an nrl club, i could see him signing a nsw cup deal though

 

[Jaws]

I think segeyaro will come back through the jets

He wouldn’t survive the Fitz and club standards or the no muppet policy

 

[Flanno]

100% - Napa is the biggest tosser.

Plus, he's not even good.

 

[CrazyMatt]

Apparently Suli is finally a done deal to the Dragons. 3 years, allegedly worth 1.7 mil.
