2017/2018 Knights Player signing speculation

[Quinny]

How come he's in NSW Cup?

Because the Warriors have a love affair with Charlie Gubb for some reason despite the fact he averaged 48m a game in 2016 and 73m a game in 2017. Vete has out performed him the last two seasons in 2016 he averaged 9 hit ups a game for 80m and in 2017 10 hit ups a game for 102m.

What's this 'cap room'? Is it somewhere out the back behind the laundry?

The super heavyweights do not have caps! Just unlimited brown paper bags disguised as TPAs.

Got a injury early in the yr... then hasnt been able to get back in the fg side

His def bigger then that....
Id say closer to 192cm 120kg... man is massive

I also heard the Broncos were after Ash Taylor probably resembling something you've just said but 'staying for less to play under Wayne' for maybe $200k? lol

The Bulldogs have some off-contract players, so they could make it work but you'd have to be a pretty creative accountant to have Woods/Tedesco/Graham/Foran plus the off contract players on the same set of books.

I think it's pretty obvious what Billy was saying. Starling has looked the goods for quite a while and the first week he doesn't is the week he signs.

Given Brown had a 100kg half back yesterday Vete will slot nicely into the centres.

 

[ForeverKnights]

Sign him now, just who we need, big size and gives the forwards that extra push.

Dunno what Kearney is thinking over there,I'd play him over gubb and mistake prone lisone

Cheers champ, I genuinely misread it. Starling is some talent, whether he's good enough and big enough to play hooker in fg is yet to be seen

 

[Billy]

He was starting hooker yesterday for the first time against senior opposition, and one prop in particular made a lot of metres by pushing him backwards.
I think he'll need to find another 10kg at least before he can move beyond reserve grade.
He has another year of NYC if he requires it.

 

[Kurriboy]

How much are we willing to pay for this one do you reckon?

 

[88Knight4life]

Dont care at this point

 

[Billy]

Keanu Dawson is the Warriors prop we bought for NYC who was going to be a big, impact prop for us.
Half our middle forwards in NYC are injured at the moment, and he still can't get a bench spot.

 

[MattyM]

How much are we willing to pay for this one do you reckon?

A large Big Mac meal, 10 pack of nuggets and an extra cheeseburger.

wouldnt think it'd be to much, he can't even get a gig for warriors first grade, anything under 200k and its a good get. Would warriors be paying some of his salary if we get him before june 30?
