What are people's thoughts on Kane elegy? He's off contract at the end of the year, shouldn't really cost too much as he's not had much of a go at the Gold Coast as of yet. Maybe worth a shot as he's one of very few half backs available.

Blake Ayshford, Jack Bird, Erin Clark, Lachlan Croker, Kieran Foran, Matt Frawley, Wade Graham, Drew Hutchison, Samisoni Langi, Jack Littlejohn, Benji Marshall, Daniel Mortimer, Mitchell Moses, Shaun Nona, Will Pearsall, Josh Reynolds, Nathaniel Roache, Will Smith, John Sutton, Ray Thompson, Chad Townsend

No chance of landing Elgey, lad has great potential, had some bad look with injury last year. I expect Titans to use him and Ash Taylor as their halfbacks for years to come. Fingers crossed Taylor keeps developing looked class last year.

Cornish could be a possibility, looked ok in Auckland Nines. I'd have had Tyrone Roberts last year but now Elgey is back fit he's become a utility player covering at halfback and hooker when Peats is injured. Think he'd be good in super league

Who'd be realistic from that list?

Strange how players regarded (rightly or wrongly) as not up to standard, suddenly spark into life when a new contract is due....

Too right. GH's email may have focussed a few minds. Only Watkins, ferres, ward, garbutt, parcel and ormondroyd have a contract beyond 2018.

Brough rumoured to be leaving Huddersfield with immediate effect.

Is he worth a punt for the rest of this season?

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V2 : Sun Mar 19, 2017 4:07 pm  

no. 100% no
