Good for them. Their manager needs a slap.
Ex-manager right? I think they fired his ass!

Good news for us, no way they can keep Gagai now I don't think.
Sign Jake Mamo, **** one of our outside duds off. Would be nice to have real speed at the back again.

The Titans are preparing to swoop on Corey Norman if the Eels five-eighth is forced to move on from Parramatta.Gold Coast have identified Norman as the man to partner Daly Cherry-Evans as they step up their aggressive recruitment drive for next year.
While the Eels at this stage have no intention of releasing Norman – who is contracted until the end of next year – the Titans are patiently watching as the Eels juggle their salary cap.

Parramatta have landed Cherry-Evans' Manly teammate Kieran Foran from next season and want to extend off-contract duo Chris Sandow and Will Hopoate beyond this year. A Sandow-Foran halves combination would force Norman to return to the fullback position he played during the bulk of his four-year stint to begin his NRL career at Brisbane. If Hopoate re-signs he could return to the centres.
The Titans have already added Cherry-Evans and want to secure outside backs including Dane Gagai and Joe Ofahengaue. They are searching for a viable long-term halves partner for Cherry-Evans. Daniel Mortimer is contracted until the end of next year and there is uncertainty surrounding Aidan Sezer and Kane Elgey. Manly are circling both players as well as Roosters pivot James Maloney, who is likely to re-sign with the club.
Sezer has attracted the interest of at least two Sydney clubs while Manly are the frontrunners to sign Elgey, 21, who won the under-20s player of the year last year. He will make his NRL debut alongside Sezer when the Titans play the Sharks on Saturday night.
The Titans may be cashed up with a host of players including Sezer, Greg Bird and Nate Myles off-contract, but the Eels have spent the bulk of their salary cap for next year. The Eels have seven spots available on their NRL roster for next season, with $1.6 million to spend, after signing Foran to a rich four-year deal.
The Eels have also earmarked South Sydney's Alex Johnston as a potential fullback despite the Rabbitohs junior likely to extend his stay at the club.
"We can keep everyone that we want to keep but we won't be overpaying for anyone," Eels boss Scott Seward told Fairfax Media earlier this month.
"If it's out of our market or out of our price range, then so be it. If it's to be where we believe market value is, we'd love to keep them. We're not going to get into bidding wars for players.
Don't know where to put this but I've read at the greenhouse and the storm forum that Mahe Fonua is a chance of coming to the Broncs. I'm overseas so not sure if this has been discussed/ called bs or whatever
