Farmduck 3,284 Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Graham 2,081 Posted June 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 We’re hearing Nathan Brown’s name mentioned as a possible replacement for Rick Stone at the Newcastle Knights. Quote The Australian Rugby League Forum Link to post Share on other sites
Farmduck 3,284 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 You'll be high up in the pecking order there Farmduck! 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Graham 2,081 Posted June 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) 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.

Graham 2,081 Posted June 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 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? Quote The Australian Rugby League Forum Link to post Share on other sites

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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Farmduck 3,284 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 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? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Farmduck 3,284 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 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. from: http://www.news.com.au/sport/nrl/knights-to-release-bj-leilua-early-with-raiders-set-to-sign-exciting-centre/story-fndv33vy-1227393679684 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

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.

Farmduck 3,284 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Farmduck 3,284 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Farmduck 3,284 Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
