Looks like he's signed

Certainly does: https://www.foxsports.com.au/nrl/nrl-pr ... e4d0b86a9a

Pretty happy with that if it comes off, I don't see many better halfbacks available and he is a decent runner, very vocal and a fierce competitor. Main issue are his injuries, but Hodgson knows him and I'm sure wouldn't sign him if these were a current issue.

Interesting reading the West fans forum, they are pleased he is leaving because it hasnt worked out for him there, bitsy he will do really well in superleague, saying he is better than Hasting and Austin.

This doesn't mean he will do better than them, but it's good reading.

Good signing if he stays fit,only played 22 games in the last 3 years.

Hoops is a club member at Wests too. So would be in the know

I'd go the full hog and make him captain if he signs.
Always shown plenty of passion and enthusiasm when I've watched him.
Reckon the leadership mantle may be good for him and his game.

If there our s, there our s!

Fox sports, NRL. Com and Channel 9 news are all reporting in the last 5-7 hours that Reynolds has signed with us now.

It’s a big gamble especially with it been 3 years but in Reynolds defence he has been in a terrible situation the past few years:
Signed by Cleary who walked out the club and Madge clearly didn’t rate him.
On a massive amount of money which was always the thing that got brought up when he was injured or out of form despite playing at 9 a lot.
Had a legal case over his head from his psycho ex girlfriend who lied about getting assaulted by him as well as her lying about been pregnant and suffering 3 miscarriages.
Knowing the club don’t want you and have been trying to get rid for over a year.

Hopefully a move over here gives him a fresh start will get him back to his best. The fact Hodgson already has a relationship with him and saw him training daily and still wants him is a big plus too.

I'd be happy with that signing. He's a cracking player from what I've seen. Ok he hasn't played much first grade in last few seasons, but you have benji Marshall playing the same position.

Also, we have signed players who have played less eg- carlos, bureta, ligi and satae.

Hodgson will know him, how he plays and what he will bring, (abit more housery like the snake) 2 years with option of a third? Yeah, will definitely do for me.

Fingers crossed it's TRUE.

Very excited by this signing

Think the size of the deal with Wests has been the biggest problem with his time there.
Had injuries, but presume BH has coached him, so will know just what he’s capable of.
Fresh start could be just what he needs. Won’t get much better to come to Super League.
Hastings won Man of Steel and Reynolds is a far better player and leader.

Was signed by Cleary at wests, then he left. If he can get his Bulldogs form back, WOW

I know nothing about him, never seen him in action but from that photo he looks a bit chunky for a running half.

Hard to get NRL players woth lots of game experience just like the 3 Rovers signings

Ryan Hall 11 NRL games in 2 years
Simms 5 games last year
Vete 8 games in 3 years.

This is also for Andy on the secret Rovers forum getting excited by Reynolds lack of fak gametime me and Wellkr who says we are skint and would sign the likes of Dec Patton come on boys dont be scared put your thoughts about our signings instead of hiding on the secret forum.

Ouch

Not chunky at all, a bit barrel chested but, quality player, vocal and full of passion, bit to much sometimes, but most of us fans forgive that when you see a player giving 100 %, thought it for a long time he could be the one, very happy

He can be great on his day ..3 years is a long time for him to keep out of trouble though .

We needed an experienced half and one that can lead & direct the team. Josh Reynolds certainly seems to tick those boxes and has the talent to be a real threat in attack for us and a big hit in SL.
Think it’s also a big help that our new Coach will not only know Josh Reynolds from his time at West’s but also knows SL. Also let’s not forget Ivan Cleary signed Reynolds at West’s, he’s no mug as a coach unfortunately he then left, Macquire came in preferred other options as happens.
Think it’s a pretty impressive signing and a show of intent by AP and BH.

Hopefully he’s got to that point in life, that most of us do, that you realise you really need to stop been a tit, 31 is probably about right ha

He’s definitely signed, just a matter of when the club announce it.

Fair play to AP. Would have been easier to not bring and overseas coach in, and an NRL 6.

I doubt he is going to get into a relationship with a lunatic like he did 2 years ago who pretty much ruined his life, before this he never had any off field issues.

Was thinking the same, the only off field issue he was wrongly accused.

Maybe you have to be a bit of a 'lunatic' to get involved with a 'lunatic'.
Just saying....................
