Daily Telegraph/Rothfield DT St.George want Hoppa NOW

St George Illawarra are chasing Canterbury Bulldogs veteran Will Hopoate for an immediate transfer.

Coach Anthony Griffin and recruitment boss Ian Millward want the 29-year-old fullback or centre for the remainder of this season and next year.

It was looking promising for the Dragons until Nick Cotric broke down at training during the week with a season-ending foot injury. The Dogs have also released Dallin Watene Zelezniak to the Warriors, leaving them short on back-five experience.



The Dragons would become Hopoate’s fourth NRL club following Manly, where he started in 2010, the Parramatta Eels and the Bulldogs.

Might as well let him go now, the little bit of money we save we might be able to pay forward for next year or put towards some tackling bags or something.

Swap for Duffty

 

[ATT]

If we pay no freight. And if we can still front load contracts get it done. It’s going to be a long year anyway. As pointed out he won’t be here next year. If we can use the money to say front load Jackson contract or Thompson. Let’s get if done.

Hahahahahahahahahaha

 

[Jarrad El Hickey]

Why the fuck would they want him the last skill he had was his catch and pass and even thats gone he’s been a good servant to the club but see ya later

 

[diddly]

Make it happen asap

 

[Aristidiz]

How does this deal benefit the Dogs? Is it a swap deal?

 

[berries1935]

See you later

 

[tyl0r]

Who TF are we signing for next year

No one that's going to make a difference since we don't pay overs (apparently). The Baz draw card is gone.

Not sure about a swap, I guess the only benefit is saving money. I’d assume we would release him and not need to pay any freight. Any money saved might be able to front load a contract or two giving us a little extra in the kitty next year. But that’s just a guess from me.

 

[Kempsey Dog]

You only say yes if they give us Jayden Sullivan (gun young half) or Jordon Peraria (cheap winger depth, would play rest of season) or Ben Hunt (if he accepts he's a hooker)

 

[Mr. Ditkovich]

For the rest of the year:

1. Dufty (sign him for 6 months)
2. Meaney
3. Allan
4. Schoupp
5. Katoa (Okunbor when he comes back)

 

[Family Guy]

Oh god please yes. I don't give a shit about a player swap or any form of compensation. I'm just sick of seeing this slow c*** in the side every week...but I'll be stoked to see him in the Dragons FG side

Hoppa is a plodder who can be replaced by any other plodder in NSW Cup

Push him out the door now before St. George change their minds.

 

[Papa Joe]

Maybe we're swapping him for one of their forwards.

Why do they want a turnstile when they aren't having crowds?

 

[chisdog]

Can someone drive Hoppa over to the Dragons club before they change their minds?

So now we need 3 players before August 1?
