Canterbury Bulldogs Player Signings, Re-signings & Rumour Mill: 2011 Edition

[Book]

Don't really want Blair. Eastwood, Pritchard, Ryan, Stagg, Millington, Idris and Foster are enough depth without Adam Blair coming in and making 7 metres a game for us. I'd rather sign a good centre but I think Idris will be back there next season to be honest.

 

[Darbas]

Great news about Eastwood but I can't see us getting Blair unless Tandy is found guilty. Like that betting guy on the footy show said, something big is going to happen after the season ends. Didn't sound too good for Tandy though.

 

[Mitch Connor]

Signing Buddy in place of Cuthbertson... this is why Cronulla win never win a comp.

 

[Book]

That. And their shthouse backline, which is even worse without Ferguson there next season.

I heard a rumour from my mate yesterday that O'Meley isnt settling into life in the UK and has requested a release.. Apparently Newcastle, North Queensland and the Sharks have expressed interest. Could he be a possible signing if Tandy does get found out?

North Queensland are as bigger signature whores as us of late.

No, thanks. He was THE best prop in his prime but in his later years he collapsed at the sight of a defender.

Probably all those pins and screws weighing down his body. All those big hits have to take their toll eventually.

Hickey-----------> Storm
Nanai------------> down graded to part time contract

 

[Mitch Connor]

Hickey at the Storm is a masterstroke on both parties. No club is better at turning useless blokes into quality NRL front rowers.

 

[MOVE.80]

Yes, hickey is close to having a master stroke. Is that what you're saying?

 

[Yak From Yass]

Didn't Cuthbertson only just sign for Cronulla?

Alleged fall out with the coach

Rofl are you series this guy should have retired in 2007.

 

[XR6T]

LOL....geeeeezzz, don't some people live in the past!
Just like Noddy, do some of you understand that players have a "use by date"!!
How some people think on this forum, we would have O'Meley, Mason, Price and others from that generation still playing at the age of 86!!
Time to move on people.... We need to look at the new crop coming through, like the Dugan's, Carneys, Fifita's, Idris' and alike!!

 

[SaMi..]

Spoke to A.Patmore today (NYC Coach)

Other than the confirmation of Eastwood, he said we're in desperate need of a Prop. (Tandy exile possibly?)

He then said we are chasing Adam Blair big time, then the 2011 roster will be set.

 

[aarooni]

see blair more as a backrower and if tandy goes then maybe you could have
tolman 107kg
ennis
millington 109kg
blair 106kg
ryan 107kg
stagg 95kg

paea 105kg
pritchard 109kg
eastwood 108kg
keating

 

[Bulldogs09]

[Paint.]

IF Tandy gone, Blair here:

Tolman, Ennis, Ryan (C), Blair, Pritchard, Stagg; bench: Eastwood, MIllington, Paea

IF Tandy gone, Blair not here:

Tolman, Ennis Ryan (C), Idris, Pritchard, Stagg; bench: Eastwood, Millington, Paea, Sezer (Keating 5/8,Roberts centre)

IF Tandy, Blair both here:

Ryan (C), Ennis, Tolman, Blair, Pritchard, Stagg; bench: Eastwood Paea, Tolman (Millington 18th man)

i thought greenburg and dib both came out months ago and said blair wasnt going to be released? blair would be an awesome addition though if this were found to be true.

That's what the Storm and Blair said. Looking lie he won't be released, but who knows, with the signings of Eastwood, Pritchard, as well as Roberts and Halatau already in the team, maybe hed like to be with some other NZers? That's what it seems like the club is doing right now, getting players who've worked together

Keating - Hdokinson
Stagg - Ennis - Eastwood (Hannant)
Tolman - Tandy
Pritchard - Halatau - Eastwood
