I agree that they are all risky signings. Jenkins and Palasai have had a lot of injuries and if either player gets a 8-10 week injury in the first few rounds next season there will be criticism for signing more crocks.

Connor's attitude / ego is well documented and if that does not work out, then it will attract criticism. Further, signing a 37 year old in Hall come the start of the season is also high risk.

I would personally have preferred mow low risk options but hopefully particularly in Jenkins, Palasai and Connor's cases, they all work out.

Gutherson been told to leave Parra, it’s all starting to fall into place lol

What is? He’s s fullback isn’t he, we have enough in that position.

No new signings or rumours in the last 24 hours. Anyone else getting bored?

Saw a mention of us being linked with Waqa Blake somewhere in the twitterverse. He's leaving Saints and spent a good part of his career under Arthur at Parramatta. It's not been reported by any media sources.

I was just bantering mate as everyone thinks we’re signing any player leaving Parra

I take it back. If they're the rumours, I don't want to know them.

Hope not. He wasn`t a popular figure at Saints and not a player I think would do anything for us.

Ha, fair enough

Rohan Smith has gone back to be head coach of Norths Devils, whatever you think if his time at Leeds Im glad he's got himself sorted as he's a decent bloke.

And apparently the club did ask him on his opinion on Cooper Jenkins

Good luck to him. He should certainly have learned a few important lessons from his time at Leeds.

Really. Played really well against us earlier in season. Think would be upgrade on our backs……

That`s Jenkins gone within the year then

who's alfied johnson then? just signed for wire

Rohan said he was rubbish, always moving up in defence being direct when he carries the ball and doesn't chuck it away at the first sight of a defender. On that basis, we signed him.

He really, really wouldn't, he's been absolutely awful for Saints.

I can't think of one of our backs he would be an upgrade on especially considering he would be using a quota spot.

I heard he just said he's over 5 foot 9, so don't sign him.

I'm intrigued what's happened to their existing Head Coach Dave Elliott who just led them to their first ever State Championship on the back of yet another Queensland Cup win. Can only assume he's been picked up to be an assistant at an NRL club given he only signed a new contract in August.

Bleasey, Bleasey he's our man, if he can't sign him no-one can. Same article also has us categorically denying an interest in Blake.

Just watched the Aus championship final Jenkins will be a revelation in SL has everything in the locker a genuine big athletic unit who can put himself about if the other front rower is the real deal they have to be starting props the rest will have to stake a claim for bench spots,at last some serious competition in the pack.

Hopefully, he's not another Mitch Achurch

I saw that reported we asked Smith about Jenkins which struck me as quite odd because Jenkins did not play for Norths when Smith was there.

I bet RS wanted rid of him fir being too tall

"and at least one more signing is in the pipeline"... From Peter Smith's latest article the interview with Jake Connor.

Well I wonder who it is...Must Always Identify Kind And Supportive Individuals Very Often...
