Waratahs 2014

[Badger]

Pando seems to have contradicted himself. His list of players off contract included McKibbin. Now mentions that he is contracted for next year.

Brendan McKibbin. The Hitler moustache. WTF?

 

[Ghibli]

Rumour is about that TPN is leaving

Questions of the week
Is Western Force hooker Nathan Charles in the Waratahs sights?

 

[Richo]

Hanson > daylight > Charles.

 

[Braveheart81]

Hopefully the Tahs get their recruitment right in this area. At the end of the day, you don't want to end up being the one left with the dud hooker.

Nor at the end of the night.

 

[Inside Shoulder]

Parra say they don't want Tolman or fellow Dogs forward Frank Pritchard and they are convinced that Waratahs recruit Israel Folau, a player the Eels narrowly missed out on in the off-season, is close to signing or has already signed with Canterbury for 2014.

^ if he has signed why haven't the Dogs announced it? The NRL would love to get one over Rugby.

I think they're trying to manouvre some blokes out of the club without pissing everyone off.
I see it as just the first shot in months (maybe only weeks?) of speculation

 

[Richo]

Entirely possible, but I'll just wait until something gets announced. Remember when Quade was moments away from signing with the Eels?

Also, even if Izzy is an outside chance to make the Lions tour, you'd think his management would be insane to let anything out before then.

Clarkie's tweeted that Hanson is staying at the Reds...https://twitter.com/greg_clarkie/status/321241998034079744

tis a rumour

Do you think Saia will leave? I'd imagine there was a game-time carrot for young Hanson.

 

[JSRF10]

Where is TPN said to be going? Can't imagine him going to another Aussie team so I assume he is chasing $$$ in France or Japan?

 

[#1 Tah]

I think TPN has a career calling for him, maybe not another year of rugby

 

[Richo]

Surely some dollars in Japan before he pursues the robotics or whatever. I could certainly understand him wanting to step away after all the head knocks he's had and the good uses he puts his brain to off the pitch. If he does go, the Tahs need to find a good hooker. Ulugia has dropped his opportunities rather than seized them.
