Knights rumoured targets for 2012

Blair is a gun, but IMO he would command too much coin. Hoffman providing we got him for the right price would be good, don't know how he will go coming back from ESL though. Now, Tom Symonds I believe has huge potential. He has the potential to be anything down the left side, he can run a magnificent line too. He probably won't be getting a starting spot either at the Roosters because Anasta plays down the left hand corridor, Benny could transform him into something really special! He would come cheap too!
 
Blair is on around $300000 with third party deals could get him for 150-200000

You know this how?

All speculation, personally Blair isn't a complete footballer. Doesn't do enough but has huge impact. Comparing him to a Dragons player would be like Jeremy Smith.
 
I would have Blair or Hoffman in a heartbeat for the right money, but would I take them over Zeb, Houston and the other boys weve got. That I dont know
 
Tom symonds would be a good buy IMO. He will ask for alot less then the others and has alot of potential
 
Most of us thought 400k for Snowden was too much and he is a better player then Blair IMO. 500k for Blair is massive overs

Isn't Symonds the Roosters ranger? He is a great young player would love to have in the red & blue, great potential in that kid.

Yes he is. Only reason he is being kept out of first grade is because the Roosters can't find anywhere for their captain to play in the team. I will be watching him with interest this week because he has finally got a start in the backrow, Carney has been ruled out with Anasta back to 6.
 
2 Baseless articles, it all pure speculation...and none of those would make a fit for the knights.

Its been said countless times that Tinklers vision is turn the bring back the locals and retain our juniors and restor the team back to its glory days, a onfield powerhouse teamed full of locals. Bennett signed on because he like Tinklers vision, supported the vision and enact the vision. Henceforth logically recruitment will be bringing back novocastrians and blooding and growing our best juniors.

All these players been thrown left right and centre is utter nonsense at the moment.

As for needing blair as a strike weapon. We have Houston, Paterson and Taia and Hilder, who i all rate above Blair, especially under Bennets tutelege. In the next couple of years, Taia will be a NZ national regular and Houston will be playing origin. If we wanna buy a stike weapon, no better place to look the NYC. blood in Cooke, 2 years of FG experience and supercoaching, would be the best backrow strike weapon in the game.


All this nonsense of where getting this guy and this guy or that guy is ripping the fabric of the knights apart.
 
I doubt any of this is true, but out of those players mentioned, i wouldn't be too keen on Hoffman tbh.
