Player movements and rumours

  1. Ioane IP Tivao

    What's the latest on Taumata? Has he signed with another club yet?
     
  2. Alec AD Funkotron

    Yeh, Tomato signed with the Panthers.
     
  3. Hunter AD Hunt

    Understatement.

    Not denying that but that is not to say I don't think Jaiman is a good pick-up. He played a really solid last two-three games at the end of the regular season and was pretty good. Will be good for the Storm even if it is only for two years especially seeing as they have no props.


    Agreed. Has been playing good for Windsor as well, was never going to push for a spot with our new found depth though. Having said that, he will be good for the Storm especially seeing as he will be guaranteed a spot in the side pretty much provided he has a solid off-season and injuries let him play.


    Yeah as Alec said he signed with the Panthers. Hasn't been any articles which is strange but Andrew Farrell (Panthers media manager) announced it on the Panthers forum. He said that he had signed a one year deal. Hopefully, won't backfire and will start to live up to his potential next season.

    Your point?

    I don't think anyone was suggesting otherwise.

    Why not throw in that Brent Tate > Maurice Blair too?
     
  6. Alec AD Funkotron

    Jaiman Lowe was pretty much the worst forward in the comp about 5 years ago (excluding Ben Chizlowsky).

    Just saying, given that they're brothers. I doubt Ben would be on much more than Jaiman.

    I would laugh if I did not think some people actual thought so.

    oi Rob apparently Israel Folau > Michael Bani :ninja:

    Well if they were both off contract now I'm sure Ben would pick up a much better deal than Jaiman. His performances were pretty average until this year (mainly due to not being used in his perfect role in a team that suited him perfectly - unlike now).

    I don't think many/any would disagree that Ben is the better player. Just seemed a random, obvious thing to say.
     
  10. Hunter AD Hunt

    Because that'd be lies.
     
  11. Wilson SB Wilson

    What the ****

    The Brian Noble rumour still exists

    A managerial role is a peculiar move for me. He has the creditials to be head coach of an NRL team. He might be easing his way into the NRL, will keep Elliot on his toes at least.

    Adding to Brian Noble, I am lead to believe that Yilleen Gordon is close to a reality and should be coming over to Penrith for next season as he sees an opportunity in the second row after Pritchard left, I think that he is a terrible player.

    I have faith in Buddy Gordan. Could turn out to be such a great player.
     
  15. Ged GEC King

    Gavin Cooper, Scott Bolton and Dallas Johnson is going to be the most under-rated backrow the game has ever seen next season.
     
  16. Hughesy JM Hughes

    He is a bit overweight isn't he? Will be solid depth for Windsor at least considering Daniel Penese and Josh Bateman are supposedly leaving.

    AWTA will be a very defensive backrow as well.
     
  17. Howsie DP Howell

    He's not that bad, granted he's rather inconsistant at times but he can get the job done. Should of played a lot more FG this season really.
     
  18. League Lover L Lover

    Eh, still don't really want a 'reject' from another club though. Not an ideal replacment for Pritchard tbh.
     
  19. Hughesy JM Hughes

    What are you talking about? A inconsistent player replacing Pritchard is heaps good! They both have the exact same mentality, I am so glad that he will be a Panther :sarcasm:

    In all seriousness, it could be a decent signing but I don't see him playing anywhere else but Windsor unless he all of a sudden plays really well in the trials.

    Nathan Massey --> Canberra
