This is from a rooster fan


I don't get our recruitment plan we already have Toups/Fergo/SKD who are better wingers than centres why do we need Mansour as well, allocation of cap resources is totally off.


How the hell a roosters fan can whinge about there clubs recruiting is astonishing
Yep they are a pack of greedy pricks...
1. Tedesco
2. Mansour
3. Manu
4. Mitchell
5. Tupou
thats probably what they want

It was also reported by Peter Tunks on talking sport this week that Josh Mansour had asked Phil Gould for an immediate release.
He's always been open of his desire to one day wear the blue and white.
How did we allow this bloke to slip out of our junior system and head West ?
It was simple mate. He was ordinary as a junior and even when he went to the wabbits he wasn't that flash. Went to Penrith and matured into a great winger. It happens.

He also put on a lot of muscle which resulted in insane leg drive and effectively one of hes most important attributes.

Fusitua would be ideal but not off contract until the end of 2019 and no matter how shit the warriors go he wouldn't ever push for a release nor would they ever release him, he is a fan favourite and a player they see as a marketable asset so we have no chance on him unless we wait an extra year.

Ramien is a future star, as talented as any young back out there but he is going to replace Beale and start the season in first grade and Sharks will break the bank to keep. Im not to sure off his contract situation though and if it does expire this season then we need to throw a nice contract at him, Ramien and Suli next to each other will leave there opposition sore after every game, they are both big blokes with speed, Ramien is also a nice defender.

Manu is, in my opinion, the most naturally gifted outside back 21 and under other then Ponga, he has the X-Factor most other players dream off, he is extremely fast. a really nice step and very strong. I'd love him to replace Jmoz but I think the Roosters will fight hard to keep him. He is off contract at the end of the season and will have some big money thrown at him, I expect him to sign a contract worth at least around 500k from a club hungry for talent.

Anthony Don is one of my favourite wingers in the game and I think we could get him at a really good price and if Bmoz retires then Don would be a handy replacement.

My wishlist as of now:

Nat Butcher (3 year deal/250k a season)
Tevita Pangai Jr (2 year deal/200k a season)
Joseph Manu (4 year deal/450k a season)
**Roger Tuivasa-Sheck (3 year deal/1 million a season)


*RTS will all come down to how Mbye goes at fullback, if he kills it then we are better off saving the money for 2019.

I don't want to just spend money for the sake off it, Even if we have 1 million left in the bank just save it until the next season where the likes of Latrell Mitchell, Bevan French, Coen Hess, Fuistua, Munster and Holmes are all off contract.

If Mbye fires then I'd love to go into next season looking like this:

1. Mbye
2. Montoya
3. Manu
4. Hopoate
5. Suli
6. Foran
7. Cogger
8. Woods
9. Lichaa
10. Klemmer
11. Jackson
12. RFM
13. Butcher

14. Fualalo
15. Pangai Jr
16. Elliot
17. Ogden

The bench would be damaging, Pangai adds some nice size and the other 3 all have nice potential, that backline though, the speed oh.my.god, we would run circles round the opposition. The starting pack are still all young enough to play together for at least the next 6-7 years if they wish.

No club will be going near TPJ until the alleged assault is dealt with.

Ramien won't be starting for the Sharks, Katoa looks to hace nabbed the spot on the wing.

If I could magically click my fingers and piss off certain players and make others appear in our squad the current team or future team would look like this

1. Joesph Manu
2. Moses Suli
3. Jesse Ramien
4. Will Hopoate
5. Marcelo Montoya
6. Keiran Foran
7. Jack Cogger
8. Aaron Woods
9. Michael Lichaa
10. David Klemmer
11. RFM
12. Coen Hess
13. Josh Jackson

14. Moses Mbye
15. Francis Tualau
16. Adam Elliot
17. Okihifi Ogden

The following passengers that would be gone in a heartbeat are:

Fa’amanu Brown - Don’t have a clue why we signed this tampon, fringe first grader at best!

Greg Eastwood - Great servant for the Dogs but well past it

Aiden Tolman - Too one dimensional style of player and if I have to watch one more of his 5 metre hitups I’m going to scream!

Danny Fualalo - I think his selection in the team over the last couple of seasons wasn’t really a choice moreso a lack of options

Matt Frawley - as above, oh and he looks like he should be in sixties porno or something other than first grade

Just my opinion.

Rumour pages on Facebook have reported that Raimen has signed with the Knights for 2019 onwards. Looks like we will need to target Manu harder as he's the only proven young talent available now

What a backline that will be:

1. Ponga
2. Ross
3. Ramein
4. Moga
5. SKD

That is exciting especially Ponga, Ramein, and Moga.

We shouldn't be "chasing" anyone. We should be scouting well for new pups to bring through. If there happens to be a good player wanting to join and there is a definite hole to be filled then so be it. But no "chasing" and paying overs.
