Couple of times I've heard gal talk it's been about Foran, plus no origin Id be surprised if we havnt atleast put out feelers.

Have we missed the boat on Foran thou?
Didn't sound like we were ever in the hunt.

Also sounds like DCE was only ever interested in Tits or Manly according to a few articles I've read this morning.
We must have only been a bargaining chip to help increase the gold coin bags!

I have to say, I do think he's a touch on the over-rated side.

He's been brought into probably the best and most consistent team of the last decade.

He's had a heap of good players around him to attract attention. They've had good go-forward and backrowers with a heap of ball playing ability. He's had another quality half next to him in Foran. Jamie Lyon's been there too and he's no stranger to the halves. He's also had one of the best fullbacks going around (even though he's spent a considerable amount of time injured).

I don't think I've seen him take command of a rep game yet, in the way Thurston, Lockyer, Smith or even Cronk do.

I'd still like him, but I did worry we were chucking a hell of a lot of money at him.

There are other options available who can still improve our team significantly.

Even if we don't get anyone, I maintain that Nu Brown is better than Robson.[/QUOTE

I agree and his potential is enormous

I think dce will struggle at the titans if they let sezer go. Dce has only played in world class teams. Manly, qld, australia. Titans will show what he is made of.

I am inclined to agree with you, a good half has to have a good aggressive strong pack to lay the platform, also having a quality 5/8 play with you is a really big help.

The Titans don't have either so, is the NRL going to buy the extra quality and put it around him?

Sharks will probably pick him up for 400k in 2018 after he is a failure and on the outer with the Titans.
