I'm hearing a very big signing may be about to drop (before June 30) stay tuned!

It's me! I'm signing for the West Duckford Mallards.

[Graham]

You'll be high up in the pecking order there Farmduck!

We’re hearing Nathan Brown’s name mentioned as a possible replacement for Rick Stone at the Newcastle Knights.

I'm not going to play for the Mallards. I just signed a contract to bump up my bargaining power with the Duckford Town Teals.

 

I'm not sure what the problem is at Newcastle. Everyone up there seemed to love Rick Stone. On paper their squad isn't too bad, in fact they probably have some of the better outside backs.

Rick Stone staying   http://www.news.com.au/sport/nrl/nrl-2015-rick-stones-loyalty-to-newcastle-should-be-returned-by-knights-supporters/story-fndujljl-1227390265583

News is that Frank Pritchard is leaving the Bulldogs at the end of the season.

It's likely that the club are facilitating his early release so he can play for Hull FC in Super League next season.

It also looks like Titans want to offload Dave Taylor - they are apparently touting round Super League clubs and are willing to pay a big chunk of money towards his salary wherever he goes. Poor business eh?

Now that would be a good signing for the right SL club, I'd like to see Castleford get him he is one hell of a player when focused.

[Farmduck]

They've got him playing in Q Cup this week.

 

On a tangential point: in less than 15 years we've gone from SL outbidding NRL clubs for players to NRL subsidising SL clubs to take away their unwanted players. Who said the NRL does nothing for World RL?

[Farmduck]

Also, this:

 

NEWCASTLE could release departing centre Joey Leilua as early as Friday despite a potential deal with the Canberra Raiders to trade him for prop David Shillington now appearing unlikely.

All the talent in the world but I have it on very good authority there is not a great deal going on between the ears. Far far far to good for QLD cup

The saddest part is that, like Tony Williams, he doesn't need to think. He needs to just catch the ball and run straight and hard.

JOEY Leilua has been released by Newcastle, effective immediately.

 

The 23-year old had earlier this season activated an early-release clause in his contract and has been heavily linked with a move to Canberra.

 

He is expected to join the Raiders for the rest of the season.

Souths signed young Paul Carter for the remainder of this year & next, Looks a good young kid and should do well under Madge.

[Farmduck]

Sadly, while inheriting his dad's playing smarts, he seems to have inherited his dad's thug side too.

Sounds like a future NSW captain to me.

Raiders looking really good for next year.

[Farmduck]

Not sure who gets dropped to make way for Leilua though. Canberra's backline is already pretty good. They can't drop Croker and I can't see them dropping Waqa.

[Farmduck]

Apparently, the Storm's Kurt Mann is headed to St George next year. First I've heard.

[Farmduck]

Michael Gordon will finish this year with the Sharks and has signed for Parra in 2016.

 

Nene McDonald has moved to the Titans from the Roosters and may play for the Coast this weekend.

Seems to have fallen through. My apologies I jumped the gun on this one.

James Maloney sleeps with the fishes. Ooops! I meant he's signed with the Sharks  http://www.nrl.com/maloney-joining-sharks-in-2016/tabid/10874/newsid/87233/default.aspx

 

Godfather was on TV the other night.

:-D He worked his socks off today in the game vs Dragons

[Lounge Room Lizard]

Gutted to see Ryan Hinchcliffe leave Melbourne. Quality Player who is Mr Reliable.

[Southstander13]

Brisbane Bronco Mitch Garbutt has signed for Leeds with immediate effect and through to the end of 2017.

 

What's the general opinion of him?
