2017/2018 Knights Player signing speculation

[Billy]

What's doing on with the saifiti bros are they signed for next year

yes - and are currently in talks to extend their contracts - which might mean an upgrade for the rest of 2017 and 2018 so we can pay them a bit less than other clubs would have to for 2019 and beyond.

We're taking the guys they don't want so they can fit in the NSW fullback.

Better than taking scraps from a bad team I guess.

Just a quick look at their profiles indicates experience aplenty, may be what's needed to prop up a newby roster which needs direction.

Still need 2 good props.

Kind of wish Jeremy Smith hung around another year but I guess now we know why those sharks forwards were good.

At this rate people will start saying bring back Kurt Gidley. At least he was a leader who could rally the troops and dig deep for the team and never quit.

 

[MattyM]

Wonder when we're expecting an announcement regarding SKD, that's if we've even signed him.

will have to be in next 3 days

What lol? Smith had stopped trying back in 2015, you could tell his heart wasn't in it, and his body was RS in 2016.

Still probably would have offered more than Tupou. - What a lemon his been not that anyone expected much.

[EASBay17]

What was the comment?

That james graham will be with us next year. I didnt actually hear it, i saw it on a facebook page, thats why im asking if anyone did hear it.

 

[Grandpa Joe]

Not the biggest fan of Graham but we need experience and god knows that mad dog ranga fits the bill.

Funnily enough our 500k and Brisbane's '200k' work out to about the same amount when the player gets paid each month.

 

[slotmachine]

Yeah he let Petero walk over 30k a season or something ridiculous.

However I'm sure the TPA partners are being sounded out as we speak.

They still got Roberts, TPJ, Boyd to lock up.
Then they still need to secure Matt Lodge.
So we are in with a really good chance.
Let me speak to Browny sometime this week.

 

[Grandpa Joe]

Sadly so slots

Money talks.

 

[Grandpa Joe]

Good luck to Tiges $600k for a utility half hooker to play fullback. Maybe cheap in 2 or 3 years if he kills it but goes to show buying the first player available aint smart clearly loloheo has been a flop for them.

 

[slotmachine]

I'd probably wait until next year to tee off on the Tigers. They might go alright.

 

[Anthony01]

I have only seen Massoud reporting it. That bloke has as much credibility as me. Not saying it's not true but not taking his word for it.

 

[Joey1245]

I wouldn't believe anything till it happens officially fingers crossed on all accounts
