Silly Season Already Started

[morley101]

Rumour has it we are after Trent Merrin. Any truth to it ?

[fletch]

the rumour started here a while back when news started leaking that he wasn't happy with Mary McGregor at the merge.

would take him in a heart beat, problem is we can't afford him, the only way we would be in the running is if we didn't go ahead with signing Fergo.

[Johnny Tobin]

Even if they got rid of FPN I don't think we could do that.

[The Axe]

we must have freed up sufficient funds with the release of Casty

Seriously, could we afford him if we released FPN and used the $100K we are reporting to be under the cap this year?

Who is JT or is this more BS?

[BUDDY]

Is Merrin being released in which case the Drags would pay part of his salary?

We released a few players after 2012 to get Jenko and LOD so who knows whether Robbo will do something similar.

I would take him but whether he is worth his asking price.

He is undergoing a shoulder operation and won't be ready to go until January.

Hey JT this 2016 signing you mentioned, can you mention whether it's a back or forward?

[fletch]

so the rumour was started by 2gb this afternoon, its about as reliable as being reported by the telucrap.

[morley101]

Apparently he asked for a release to join us... on 2GB.

[fletch]

well according to our official twitter page our final roster for 2015 is yet to be settled, so I guess watch this space

@sydneyroosters A few questions have come our way in regards to the INs and OUTs for 2015.. when they're locked in, you'll all know!

[Tommy Smith]

Ummm yes please!

I'm a huge fan of Merrin.

But still highly unlikely you would think. Why would the Dragons release their best forward.

Also, perhaps he's being lined up as a replacement for JWH; maybe the club know he's off to Union as he's sick of the refs.

[The Axe]

I'd love JWH's last game in League to be one of absolute brutality Vs the Vermin. Imagine if he has carte blanche to attack knowing he cannot be suspended...

I want to be at that game.

[SConcierge]

I started the rumour and I can confirm its true, Welcome Trent ....fark off FPN.

[The Axe]

I started the rumour and I can confirm its true, Welcome Trent ....fark off FPN.

SC, Without revealing sources, how do you know this is a done deal?

Can you confirm FPN is off?

[Easts75]

I started the rumour and I can confirm its true, Welcome Trent ....fark off FPN.

Gee I hope this is true. Ideal signing. Good attitude, experienced rep player, good yards and minutes, great second phase play with a offload. Worth every cent plus we might het to see SALLY at the game! Mmmmmm Sally

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Probably the best offloader in the game...if gets back to full fitness would be worth it.

The incidental engagement of Sally would also lessen the pain of losing Jodi G.

[John Corey]

Terrific player but I just dont get why Saints would let him go. He is by far their best forward. Versatile, great step, offload, big engine. Surely they are not that silly.
Id love to see FPN go. Waste of space imo.
