Social Media Brandon Smith rumoured 3 year deal

Wouldn't mind Smith, but you can just see the difference in class from him and Grant

I’d say one is 0% a chance and the other is some and light years ahead of the others!

Hopefully we are looking at Mitch Kenny from riff keep the riff player thing going he’s of contract and wouldn’t cost that much. He’s also playing nsw cup. They have a couple hookers so he is not a priority to the riff

Yeah pretty crazy some here don’t want or rate Smith. Let’s keep running with Katoa and JMK because Smith isn’t Grant....

Kenny's a good option (will do the job) if we miss out on the quality hookers. I just feel like we'll really lift off with a quality hooker.

FOXSPORTS0:49 Trent Barrett denies he's poaching Panthers

NRL: Following the recent signing of Brent Naden, Bulldogs coach Trent Barrett has denied that he's poaching players from Panthers.


Coach Trent Barrett will do anything to hide his recruitment planning and targets at the Canterbury Bulldogs.
Especially when he’s chasing a player of the calibre of Storm forward Brandon Smith and wants to keep it all cute.
On Wednesday morning Barrett was doing a radio interview on the Big Sports Breakfast when host Laurie Daley worked out he was at an airport from the background noise. “Where are you off to Baz,” Daley asked.

“Just going home to Temora,” Barrett said.
Turns out the Bulldogs coach was actually about to board a flight for Melbourne.

He was spotted by one of our readers.
Barrett told me: “I was just down there catching up with The Fox (Josh-Addo Carr, who has signed with the Bulldogs).”
I told him he had also been spotted with Smith.

“Yep, he just happened to pop in when we were chatting,” Barrett said.
Barrett needs to be careful because Smith is still under contract at Storm until the end of next season. Storm is prepared to release him early on the condition they can get a like for like replacement.
That’s something the Bulldogs might struggle to come up with.

 

[NPC83]

They could probably have any of our back rowers if that’s what they are looking for as a replacement.

 

[QLDdogsfan]

Fuck we need him literally give them anyone on our squad, bar maybe Thommo

 

[Bulldogs09]

Fick hope so

 

[bradyk]

off you go RFM

 

[Bulldogs09]

off you go RFM

It makes sense. While I can see rfm going well there and he clearly is a quality player so be it.

We need b Smith urgently. Watch Katoa
Ffs.

Who knows maybe storm might find someone to sign and let him go. We gave them finucane and Remis ffs.

Maybe jacko says he wants to fight for a title

 

[coach]

off you go RFM

Only one you would keep

 

[tyl0r]

Are we the only team who releases players without a like for like replacement

 

[Hulk76]

They've got Reimis from us for no player swap and a early release. He's going well for them, so why would we need to offer up another good player???

 

[liljohny]

Looks like last buzz spilt half of last nights Merlot over his face

He filled in well for Api when he was injured. Definitely a good shout out, I hope we could lure Starling to our team. I cannot stand another year of JMK or Katoa. Dietz looks like a good backup.

 

[Natboy]

Only one you would keep

Why?

 

[alchemist]

I am now all in on recruiting Brandon Smith... 7 years of watching Lichaa, JMK and now Katoa playing hooker for us has done my head in

 

[Kempsey Dog]

off you go RFM

Bellamy would want Doorey imo
