Opinion Dale finucane

[_G-Dog_]

Good player & great deal for him but Game has changed.. Worker type forwards not worth the big cash compared to spine players or more dynamic/attacking players..

 

[H-dog]

They are just getting out of Fifita long deal and now dale for 4 years is puzzling

 

[TOTTO]

Great player but 4 years its a no from me, more of a mentor roll, of the books .

 

[GrogDog]

Lucky he's tasted success, he won't see any at the Sharks. If it wasn't for the NRL they still wouldn't have. Salary Cap compliant on the day WTF????

 

[El Padrino]

"Bullet dodged"

 

[Malla]

What the fuck are Sharks trying to build their roster makes absolutely zero sense

 

[jamma01]

Terrible signing. Plodder in a good system at the Storm. Probly on par with Jacko on a 4 year deal.

 

[wendog33]

Fitzgibbon's decision?

 

[oldpuppy]

The money paid per year is thereabouts. 4 years is possibly too long.
Good luck to them.

 

[c-b-b]

He's an excellent player in a good Melbourne system - take him out of that and see what happens.

Good luck to him though, if a club is stupid enough to make an offer like that it's their problem.

Wow. Would loved to have seen Dale for 2 years at Belmore but 4 years when he’s about to turn 30 is a massive risk. Surprised it’s not the Tigers with that sort of deal but the Sharts may end up with buyers remorse on this one, especially under the new rules. Guess they had plenty of cap space given Moylan, Dugan, Woods, Johnson, Fifita etc all departing soon.

 

[ddt192]

I feel like 4 years is what was gonna get him out of Melbourne. Good luck to him. The guy is a champion & I’m happy he’ll be on Cronullas books for the next 4 years.

I think they have recruited very well.
Finucane.
Nicho hynes
McInnes.

Getting rid of Johnson Dugan and Fifita.
Big upgrades IMO

They're still down a half considering they lost SJ and Townsend. They have re-signed Moylan but they should be on the market for a HB.

Maybe Moylan at 7 hynes at 6 Kennedy at 1.

You are right tho. No real number 7

On top of Rudolph
Moylan
Fifita still there for another year
No half back
No front rowers
McInnes to play lock
They have brailey

anyway good luck to them

Fifita still contracted.

1. Kennedy
2. Mulitalo
3. Ramien
4. Tracey (probably need another quality centre)
5. Katoa
6. Moylan
7. Hynes
8. Finucane
9. Brailey
10. Rudolf
11. Graham
12. Talakai
13. McInnes

14. Nikora (or a utility?)
15. BHU
16. Fifita (re-sign Tolman? Pele?)
17. Williams (someone else?)

I think that's a pretty strong team. In or around the 8 next year. They don't have a genuine halfback (do you need 1 in today's game?) and they're a quality centre short. Those only question marks I see.

 

[Chrisaaar]

They'll medically retire him if he gets too slow. It's the new way (that or they'll get him on the juice then get him caught / fired)

Agree, the big dilemma for them though will be their halves. Despite how good Hynes has been this year I cannot see him playing anywhere near as good at Sharks as he will be playing 6 and his halves partner will be average.
