NRL Player Movements & Rumours

[Wolfie]

Brian To’o - important but could go to one of the other Sydney teams... you'd think $500k at least

Stephen Crichton - I think Panthers will be keen to re-sign and mold him into their future fullback... probs $450-$600k

Liam Martin - they're losing Kiks so he will be a priority signing... probs $450-$500k

Spencer Leniu - not all that important to the Panthers cause, but they may lose Leota in the future who is more valuable to them... maybe $350k

Izack Tago - very important to their cause and looks a gun... would be looking at a decent upgrade I'd say... maybe $350-$400k

Scott Sorensen - bargain basement deal... he'd be stoked to get $200-$250k

Charlie Staines - I think they'll be happy to lose with Taylon May there. Panthers had ambitions to make him the fullback, but that seems unlikely now.

Isnt Critchon already on $650k-700k a year as it is?

yep

 

[BroncsFan]

I doubt he will be taking a pay cut. reports were that his current contract is around 650k a year

Panthers secure Crichton for two more years

Penrith have got their man, locking in centre Stephen Crichton on a two-year deal that will keep him at the club until the end of the 2023 NRL season.

Yeah I think that was when he was being groomed for the role, but he feel away last year... fell away mostly when he was given the opportunity for fullback.

They might go back in at that level or he might have dropped his value because of failing last year

TBH I was going to go $800k, but couldn't be bothered with what would be an onslaught of BHQ "you're dreaming if you think he's worth that much".... so opted to go with what I would assume his current value would be

Corey Norman has come out retirement and signed with Super League side Toulouse Olympique.

Daejarn Asi just signed effective immediately with Warriors. I don't understand this seeing they already have Kodi and Taylor as backups. Broncos should be looking into getting Kodi ASAP.

 

[Jedhead]

I know it’s only that pond scum weedler, but he’s reporting Shuster unhappy at not being played at 5/8 despite Manly giving him and his family a firm promise when he signed.

Please God let DD and Ikin make a play for this guy. He is such a talent and just what we need at 6.

Do people think Kodi is going to have a negative effect defensively? I can’t see KW going this way.

No more negative than Billy or Tyson.

Gilbert to the Dolphins.

Great signing and one of those players they really needed to help benefit from playing alongside the Storm trio.

Asi has probably played more center than six. Makes sense if they release Aitken.

Yeah he has, but Craig Hodges said the following about the signing

“When we discovered he was available we were keen to sign him as soon as possible. He’ll give us cover and depth in the halves while he can also play other positions.”

This makes it look like they see him as an option for 6 more so than centre.

He's literally had one good game on Debut at 6 in the NRL. He's just a depth signing in no particular position imo.

I don't rate him highly at all, but they've signed him for a reason. Taylor's hip might be completely shot, or they want to ditch Kodi. They're the 2 I'm thinking.

Ash has been struggling with his hip for 4 years now. I'm not going to be surprised if he doesnt play after this year.

i think there was mention of Taylor not even being able to play again , so big possibility he's done.

Ash Taylor is done mate his hips are gone , you wont see him play again unfortunately

It’s both. Ash is cooked and Kodi has been atrocious.
