(Archived) THE RUMOUR MILL - Player Movement

[vicsharkfan]

rekon the days of players wanting to go to the storm for less to play under bellamy and the big 3 are fast coming to a end.. not that they seem to see us as a viable option

 

[Tank]

yeah I'm pretty sure this is the last year

Are we with Wyong next year?

 

[sharks2010]

Are we with Wyong next year?

there was a rumour of that and also a rumour of doing a team with albury or someone like that

 

[CrazyMatt]

Are we with Wyong next year?

I think a couple of teams have inquired about joining up with the Roos, I think we might be one of them. Personally I'd like to see an end to the Storm/Sharks alliance, I think its run its course, we can spend our 2nd tier cap now, so filling out a team shouldn't be an issue, also I hate seeing situations like we had a few weeks ago where Gagan was forced to play off the bench because we had two Melbourne Storm centres taking his spot. Either join up with Wyong or go it alone.

Has Holmes re-signed yet:hoping

 

[A.Snowden]

Has Holmes re-signed yet:hoping

Nope we look to be re signing Pomeroy for 2015 as he is getting home sick.

 

[sharks2010]

Hahahahaha

 

[Gibs]

Paul Carter has been stood down from the Titans, provided he is cleared worth a look if we miss out on Ennis?

 

[deano the p]

Worth a look either way IMO.

 

[Gumby]

will we be announcing any signings this week?

 

[Sharkyle]

will we be announcing any signings this week?

I hope we sign Moga, Green and Ennis this week - The club may even wait for them all to sign and announce it all as a group like they did with the young guns earlier in the year


Moga centre of attention at the Sharks

Long suffering Sharks fans look as though they may finally be in for some good news. Reports suggest the club is about to sign Roosters centre Tautau Moga.
Injuries have crueled the career of the youngster once referred to as ‘the next Izzy Folau’, however his form since returning for the Rooster’s NSW Cup side at Newtown will have Sharks fans excited.

The Sharks, who have struggled to find a star outside back in recent times, may finally have found a solution in Moga.
Stuck behind international centres Shaun Kenny-Dowall and Michael Jennings at Bondi, is also being chased by the Raiders, but is set to accept what is being described as a ‘lucrative’ deal with the Shire club.

The reports come off the back of the yet-to-be-confirmed signing of 22-year-old, former NYC Team of the Year back, Nathan Green from the Dragons.

Coupled with the recent re-signings of Holden Cup stars ‘Nu Brown and Valentine Holmes, it looks as though the Sharks are finally building toward a bright future.

The underperforming and much maligned pair of Blake Ayshford and Jono Wright have reportedly been told to find other clubs, perhaps even before the June 30th deadline.

Although Ricky Luetele and Sosaia Feki have at times shown glimpses of brilliance, with Luetele impressing against competition heavyweights the Roosters, however they have not shown the consistency needed to nail down their spots.

The club is also in talks with NSW Cup top try scorer Marika Koroibete and Titans centre and Sutherland Shire local Brad Takairangi, as they look to reboot their misfiring backline.

Bulldogs captain Michael Ennis is also expected to sign for the Sharks to replace the departed Isaac De Gois and the retiring John Morris. His signature is sure to see him take up a mentoring roll for former Australian Schoolboy hooker Bradley Deitz, who the club views as a long term option at number nine.

The Sharks, who have been highly criticised for recruiting players at the end of their careers, look set for a serious and much needed youth injection in 2015 and beyond.

Best bit of feel good posted in ages.
Fingers crossed that it all comes thru.
However, could live without Taka

 

[Gumby]

Taka could be depth in the centres but play 2nd row on the bench.

Interesting to read that Jono Wright has been told to look else where, I know ayshford had been given the word but not Wright. Has this been said on here or is this new news? Don't get me wrong i think there are far better players than him and i don't believe he deserves a spot in our NRL side but i don't feel he deserves to be told to look else where just relegate him to nsw cup, he is a good filler for when we get injuries.

EDIT:And is it just an assumption about Val Holmes resigning or are we expecting an announcement soon?

Again good read, thanks for posting.

 

[snowman]

dogs wanted him before june 30, dont think anything came of it

 

[Gumby]

so glad we have told Ayshford to look elsewhere

I'd happily donate my left nut as a third party incentive to get Moga here.

8th of June Jets Report sounded promising:

The Jets started the game well and scored four tries in the first quarter of the game. Stylish Jets centre Tautau Moga continued his return to top form with a 70-metre intercept try, and halfback Arana Taumata stepped past several defenders to score following quality lead-up work by prop Ryan Verlinden and hooker Heath L’Estrange. Another break by Moga led to a try to five-eighth Daniel Mortimer, whose two conversions gave Newtown a 16-0 lead. Moga’s second try assist of the half enabled winger Josh Davis to score in the right-hand southern corner. Mortimer’s conversion attempt from the sideline hit the crossbar and bounced away.

I can't provide a link sorry (restricted at work ) but there is some highlight footage on the NSW cup site for this game, so you can see the above. Looked pretty good in the open. Nice draw and pass for the second try assist.
