2015 Rumoured and confirmed signings.

[Eagles2nv]

..and perhaps Farah to Manly to replace Ballin.

No thanks. Tigpies are pushing robbie out cause he is toxic, don't need that here.

Apparently the Riff have signed an AFL player from the Gold coast suns
Gold Coast's Josh Hall has joined the NRL's Penrith Panthers on a two-year deal.

Hall, who was raised in Townsville, grew up playing rugby league, before becoming a national high jump champion.

The evolution of the game: tall, high-jumping wingers like Edrick Lee and Daniel Tupou who can catch bombs, boringly hoisted at the end of most sets of six-tackles because of a lack of attacking ideas. A shame, imo, that we may never see the likes of Kenny Irvine or Kerry Boustead who would score tries through pace and a sidestep.

Just read Souths have given Gifty permission to look elsewhere for the 2016 season. He still has 2 years left on his contract! I hope we get him back home!

yeah bring him home where he belongs

Why don't we bring back Watmough whilst we are at it.Forget about the youth movement.Old injured players is the way forward.

I agree with the youth movement but Glen is still better than most of the forwards we have

 

[andyvb]

I'm all for bringing back gift!!! He was the one that use to get our defence fired up! And if Souths are going to pay half his wage for the next two years, we should bring him
Back

 

[Eagles2nv]

Newcastle rumoured to be chasing Carney.

Warriors re-sign young half Mason Lino for another year.

He has one year left not two. He signed a two year deal.

 

[Disco]

If Souths are picking up most of the tab and we are paying 100k-150k yes.....otherwise no

 

[manlywarringah]

I'd love him back for 1 year as Souths would possibly be paying a chunk of his salary but we would still have to come up with $250k or so.

He's certainly worth that not just for his ball playing ability but his defence was sorely missed this year. We need a hard nosed steely type in defence and he would be it.

Add in the Manly culture factor that seems to be sliding away and you have a good cheap buy in my books.

Plus he would get his 200 first grade games up. He deserves that.

Of course this is all hinging on him accepting Cherry as a major part of our team. If he can't and still holds grudges, he can't come back.

I don't want anymore of that crap again.

 

[The Wheel]

Gift could be our stop gap 5/8, having said that it is time to move forward not backwards

yeah, he'd be on the field as often as our 5/8 was this year

 

[Eric Galt]

Ridiculous, he was a great player but time catches up with everyone. Is becoming a crock like his old mate at Parra, no disrespect intended.

 

[Wombat64]

No thanks. Tigpies are pushing robbie out cause he is toxic, don't need that here.

If we want Toxic we have the Fatman ZtH.....

This thread is slowly devolving into commentary about potential signings, rather than posting of actual news. There is a thread about Gift already.
