Q Cup 2010

[Flutterby]

The tigers continue to stock up their playing ranks:

THE Easts Tigers have added another former NRL player to its star-studded squad, with ex-Cowboys utility Sione Faumuina the club’s latest big name signing.

Hopefully the new signings all gel with the rest of the team and we have an awesome season.

If they gel, they win it! Easily the best side on paper in Q Cup History (Not counting Direct feeder teams of course)

They have some pretty big names for 2010!
Would anyone be able to have a stab at what they think the team will be come round 1?

Yep and that's the big IF - had a pretty handy team on paper at the start of 2009 as well (not as good as 2010 but still...) and they just didn't put it together until what turned out to be a little too late in the year.

go the tigers :)

 

[BroncoMatt]

Are they back at training yet FB?

Dolphins started back this week. Alby Talipeau showed up for the 2nd session unannounced !

 

[Flutterby]

They start back training next Monday.

Good one Alby - that's kind of what happened with Cullen showing up for the Tigers last year - not sure if the coaching staff knew he was coming but the players certainly didn't until he got to training :-) Gotta love these guys lol

 

[Russo]

Go the Mighty West Panthers !!!!!

 

[Coxy]

Go the Mighty West Panthers !!!!!

Are they officially in? And playing out of Purtell Park? If so I'm totally going to their first game!!!

 

[pennywisealfie]

[Russo]

[BroncoMatt]

Fogs & Colts are back at Purtell Park though

 

[Coxy]

Yeah read that. Might look at going to an afternoon there early in the season. Bit of nostalgia :-)

 

[Je$ter]

P0ossibly a team out of PNG playing in QCup in 2010 or 2011.

More signing news:

Jaiman Lowe to Northern Pride

Josh Hannay to Mackay Cutters.

More info at http://www.qrl.com.au

 

[BroncoMatt]

Lowe is a great pick up for the Pride. They have also lured former Broncos winger Kaine Mainhera north for the winter

 

[BroncoMatt]

Good news for the Phins forwards pack Former Bronco, Raider & Titan, Kris Kahler has signed for 2010.

And in other 2010 news - after knocking back an offer from Easts and electing to stay at Reddy, Broncos 1 gamer Alwyn Simpson has had a change of heart and has decided to hang up the boots instead.

 

[Flutterby]

That's too bad about Simpson - I liked watching him play.

Seriously there are some good signings all over the place for 2010 - I think it's going to be one of the best Q Cup seasons in a while.
