Rumour: Reece Robson

[Thirteen]

mmm Sandon too small at 176cm which is the same height as Ezra Mam/Tannah Boyd/Jack Cogger for instance - Adam Reynolds is 173 / Reed Mahoney 175 / Api Korosisau 172 - Reece Walsh / Tom Deardon/Cameron McInnes/ Connor Watson/Harry Grant all 177cm - Are they all too small for NRL as well?

Yes I know there are small players who have had success. I just don’t want small players in my team. They are more often than not too much of a liability in defence. I’d love to be wrong about Smith but I don’t believe for a second that the club sees him as our long term six.

King why don’t you post a link of his semi final try against Manly. Was a beauty.

[JAF]

Well that’s good news.

any word on what he signed on for $$?

The Daily Telegraph reported $3 million for 4 seasons - not sure if it’s pure speculation or a credible source

[Bansai Pipeline]

Only really watched him in Origin, but am happy that we've made a notable signing in such a key position.

Now for a 6 and a 3.

[Rooster_6]

****ing tremendous news, hands down the best signing since Cronk and a real step in the right direction in terms of type of player we should be recruiting IMO.

I slated the Brandon Smith signing but I'm very happy with this.

I agree mate..

I agree mate..

Moses is coming to play 7. Sammy to his natural position of 6.

[JAF]

I doubt Moses will ever be a Rooster, not as long as he continues to be managed by Uncle Isaac

That Cronk call was exactly the same thought i had. This is the exact type of player we are lacking especially around the ruck. Robson & Steep our new Friend & Cordner.

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

Great news. No frills player. Mentoring from Friend will be good for his game.

[Chook2]

Jake friend in build and defence but I think a better passing game

[kakaruk]

The natives are not happy about this up in the ville he can expect a big old North Queensland howdy doodie from the good old boys when he runs out for the chooks lol

When you compare the signing of Reece Robson to the botched signing of David Fifita,seems like the Club learnt a big lesson..

Robson is the perfect fit for our team,whereas Fifita seemed like a fun signing which made no sense at all considering the way we play..

Good recovery from the recruitment team,they got this one right!

[The Axe]

Reece offers extremely quick and accurate service and has for several years. Id rate him second in this category behind harry grant.
stoic player in D.

I also rate Sandon for slick DH service. I think in time could be a good FG DH. I feel it’s his best position
wont happen in 2025 as we need him in halves

I remember a time not too distant past when the Chookpen had the hots for D F. Memories eh.

Happy Days!

Cheese > Souffs $650k a year 3 year deal from 2026 imo.

Ciao for now Mr Cheese

Didn't he walk out of a deal with the Dolphins to join us. Wayne may not be too keen?
