2012 NRL Player Rumours & Signings

[Joshhh]

No, not really. Titans are after him i think so yeh they'll almost certainly get him. Just saying if he was asking for anywhere near 100k he'd be a good pickup.

 

[A.Snowden]

If that was what he was after the sharks would retain him.

 

[Ms.Nobody]

He is currently on 400k you really think he would go to the knights for 100k?

Well no way in hell the Sharks will re-sign him on that sort of money. Overpaid massively. He is no better than Kaufusi in running metres per game. And most of the time plays 80 minutes.

Never say never with players. Cant see him getting anywhere near that sort of money, not even 200k at a different club.

He chased the money at Cronulla, and has gone downhill since.

 

[A.Snowden]

If thats the case he will go to the ESL

That's were he is rumoured to be going

 

[Ms.Nobody]

Money hungry.

 

[A.Snowden]

Money hungry.

Its a bit hard to ask someone to take a 200k pay cut and still sign.

If you knew you were overpaid and not performing, it shouldn't be too difficult. He won't get that sort of money again.

 

[Fungus]

No real announcements are made on Public holidays or Monday's for that matter. Tuesday and Thursdays seems to be the trend.

Where did you hear this Fungus?

It came from the Titans forum. I'm not 100% sure on it, hence the apparently.

Fair enough, just had a quick look over there and whoever the person was who said it, is doing the whole 'let's say something but not provide any real proof' so I would take it with a grain of salt.

I wonder when the Sharks are going to announce their signings. I'm pretty sure Robson is the most official (Im pretty sure that has been announced), followed by De Gois which seems inevitable.
Gibbs and Fifita seem likely but not concrete atm.
They could probably re-sign Tupou on half on what he is on if he wants to I guess.

Tupou could be the "strike backrower" as it was mentioned that we need, so could Bird, but nothing concrete it seems out of those two anyway.

Apparently that guy is on the board of the Titans. Wasn't taking it as 100%, but thought it was something I should pass on.

Nick Kenny is getting linked to us on another forum, no sources or anything but thought its worth mentioning as other Knights fans are behind the rumour
