NRL Rumour Mill Thread (Spoilers)

A good signing I reckon as well.

Our backs look strong with Thompson and Widdop added, now just need Cummins to come of age as a half back and we are half way there.

 

[Brendan_B]

I think he will shine. Class imo.

Agreed, for any player to stand out at Melbourne with the big three there they have to be good. He also has a massive heart, tries all game!

great signing makes me even filthier we got fking soward

 

[Victor The Viking]

Good signing for the Dragons.

Bad for the fans though. Since the Dragons are on 9 a lot more than Melbourne we now have to hear Ray Warren calling out Wid-dop more often

Give Soward a chance before you label him alongside Coote, you'll find in your own club colours he is much better than you think. He's just polarises people and is easy to hate when you look from the outside. I personally hope he goes well at Penrith.

He's a great Club man behind the scenes as well, normally the last to leave club signings, has all his own teeth and doesn't have any neck tattoos.

WOW feel like im in a parallel universe, last time the Dragons went on a buying spree (Quality)
was in 1982, ended up with Steve Rogers, Steve Gearin, Greame O'Grady and pretty sure Paul Morris as well.. Thompson, Widdop, Dugan/Chase might be announced next week...

You would also have to imagine that Price's position is pretty safe for this year and the start of next as that was one of the detractions was that it seemed like he couldn't attract any quality to the club.

@Griff_Doggy: @awebstar1 ?“@2CC: Former Raider Josh Dugan involved in #Canberra pub punch up. More on the Mike Welsh Drive Show after 3 #canberra #2cc””

cancel Dugan

 

[Brendan_B]

The Dragons have the making of a formidable squad; If Dugan could stop being a fool they would almost have a great spine. Throw in Beale, Morris, Thompon and Merrin and they are starting o look good

not to sure i'd be too excited about thompson. hes a good player but the price tag they forked out for him is borderline ridiculous.

anyhow your in a much better paddock then penrith so goodluck.

the off contract players id be looking at would be

Carney
Lyon
Eastwood
Bukuya
Sisa Waqa
Feletei Mateo
Mat Hilder
Sonny Bill

Penrith reportedly still chasing carney to combine with soward in the halves for 2014.

Good to see some loyalty left in the game, Sharks did the righty by him and hopefully he repays it

Playing some good footy would be a start....
I want him to hurry up and sign though.

 

[GiRDS-]

why do we need carney when we have the almighty soward

 

[Jaames]

Even if penrith win the GF next year Girds would still find something to complain about

 

[GiRDS-]

to bad we wont ever get to see it, because we wont be making the top 8 for the next four years let alone the gf mate

 

[KyleP]

Lol at having a go at Soward when for the majority of his career Carney hasn't played that well or has been a dick head. He's hardly done anything amazing at Cronulla and he's injury prone.

too much crap going on behind the scenes at the sharks especially this week week the board elections wouldn't be surprised if he is waiting on the outcome of that
