I wonder which of the following, if any, the Dragons would be interested in?
  • Mitchell Moses
  • Dylan Brown
  • Cameron Munster
  • Stephen Crighton
  • Liam Martin
  • Cody Walker
  • Latrell Mitchell
  • Jeremiah Nanai

Any props?? We badly need a prop
Maybe Lodge. Not sure about him. Definitely a good prop but when a player with his ability is paid to leave his last 2 clubs, we have a problem. Mbye is the same but it comes down to form and ability with him.

The young prop I mentioned playing NSW Cup for Newtown went well last week scored a double his name is Pele not yet signed by the Sharks I believe but surely will be

Never said they didn't want him he's just unsigned. He scored 2 last week and earlier in the season got a hat trick which is very rare for a prop
Ok. In your opinion, if he is a good, young prop, why is he unsigned by the Shonkies or any other club?

Don't know he is an Australian Schoolboy he has a brother and has come up through the Sharks Academy since 2016. I'd say they are negotiating a new contract because he will be playing 1sts next year of what I have seen of him. He's played 1 NRL game and is in their top 30 I'd say money may be the issue

Sounds like he would be good signing!
 
In other words, no possibility of him signing with the Dragons unless Griffin is hooked.
Unfortunately I'd say we could have picked him up cheap because he's 22 next year 1 nrl game but he looks to me to have a good future . I would offer the kid a 3 yrs contract starting at 400k year 3 600k so $1.5 m over 3 yrs would be a sound investment

If he's in the Sharks squad but can't get a run in first grade and is already too old for Jersey Flegg and is off contract this year but hasn't be re-signed by the Sharks or signed by any other club, doesn't that suggest talent scouts across the entire NRL don't share your opinion of him?

Not necessarily. I've watched him play and although he has had some injuries which props of his type will get ,when he is fit he has been enormous. Hopefully we will be able to see some NSW Cup semi finals football in the next few weeks and you can make up your own mind after watching him. I like both the Newtown props and honestly believe that they will be in the GF against the Panthers unlike our reserves

He is no.21 if you can watch the highlights his 2nd try for a prop forward is pretty special in my view. Bloody hell Tigers want to sign him

One very rarely goes from Australian school boys to top 30 contract in a top 4 team to not NRL standard in only 3 or so years.

He's probably asking for too much money and clubs are waiting for him to lower his asking price.

Tigers want him. I can see why

I can't watch that. The NRL are such scummy tight pricks with their tech. They go to enormous lengths to stop people downloading games illegally (but don't succeed) but can't seem to have the videos play smoothly on a regular basis! I trust you he did some good things. I'm just saying, maybe that game was an aberration and he's actually quite average.

I wouldn't look too much into the Tigers wanting him. They are in the market for just about everyone except Ben Hunt.
