2025 NRL Player Movements & Rumours

Holy ****... that is a big blow to the wahs... they had already lost Tohu, now Walker is gone and he was their next best ball playing middle.

The speed of that from release to signing for a new club reeks of parra talking to Walker's management and getting him to break his contract.

It's a grey area. Hypothetically, Walker wanted out and back to Oz and sounded out a deal to make sure he had a place to land before asking for a release. It's not hugely ethical, but in that instance it's probably within the rules and not putting Parramatta at fault.

Dylan Edwards (fullback)
Dylan Brown (five-eighth, not to be confused with a utility)
Dylan Walker (utility, not to be confused with a five-eighth)
Dylan Egan (second-row)
Dylan Lucas (second row)
Dylan Coutts (yet to debut)

Is that a lot?

That's how baby names work. Give it 15 years and the comp will be full of Ryley's, Archie's, Paddy's, Noah's, Flynn/Finn's, Oliver's etc

Well, at least from a non-Polynesian & Pacific Islander perspective.

We've probably had more Corey's in a single top 30 squad before!!

Michael Carayannis and Brent Read article saying that Reynolds is on Manlys hit list to replace DCE ... Fogarty and Foran the other players being discussed.

The only quotes in the article are from Garrick and he only talks about DCE

Why the heck would you trade out DCE for Reno? That makes absolutely no sense lol.

It helps if you also consider the article to be completely fabricated bullshit, which it almost certainly is.

Brent Read is a complete fucking nuffie. The NRL media deal in pure bullshit, nothing more.

I don't think they are!

Isn't it more that DCE is leaving, no matter what Manly throw at him, and so they are sniffing around looking for someone to replace him?

I was wondering what happened to Keenan Palasia. Turns out he got a release from his Titans contract to play with the Leeds Rhinos. So much for leaving Brisbane to be with his mum on the Gold Coast.

Leeds Rhinos sign Samoa forward Keenan Palasia & Cooper Jenkins for 2025

I think it’s obvious what happened here. His mum lives in Leeds.

Leeds may as well be the sun to Titans fans haha

I doubt he gives a **** as he's counting his wads of cash but DCE sure does make himself look like the ultimate flog when it comes to contracts.

He signed one of those 1 million a year 10 year deals and then at the end of it, he tells them he's walking so he can essentially get something to similar to what Dylan Brown is about to get at the ripe old age of 36.

This isn't an Adam Reynolds situation who just wanted an extra year, DCE wanted that decimal shifted one more to the right.

100% on the Titans. I think he admitted as much in the press conference, he wanted to see how much he could get out of Manly.

Reserving judgement on this one for the moment. Something on the Manly side of things stinks IMO. If he re-signs after the whole "Respectfully, no" speech though...absolute flog.
