  • Michael Gordon

    A chance he will be playing with us before June 30. Great for goal kicking and they would probably switch him and Mitchell between fullback and centre at stages of game to ease pressure on the kid. Would be a good signing if true

      Also Brendan Elliott might be going to Newcastle if the above happens. I for one would get rid of Topou before Elliott

        Can cover Fullback and wing/Kick goals.

          If true he'd be a good addition as a winger, limited fullback.

            For Hayne to return to Parra Gordo's gotta go. He wants 2 years..

              This will be a done deal.He ticks all the boxes. We need someone to release the pressure on Mitchell, We need a goal kicker, we need experience,We need someone to fill the fullback roll for the next two years While we get our superstar ready to take the roll on full time.Parra need to free some cash to get Hayne back. Would be a great signing. We have enough young talent coming through, now we need some old heads.

                I know Mitchell is doing well but do you think the pressure he's under is a concern?

                Perhaps Gordon will play FB with Latrell moved out to the threequarters.

                  Is this media speculation or do you have some inside knowledge?

                    Agree on that.

                    I'm a big fan of Elliot too.

                      Fergo and Mitchell in the centres would be deadly!

                        If this is any way true then it's proof that something is seriously rotten inside the club. I thought Brian Carnavan doing what he did with Jessica Peris was indicative of a problem and if any of these rumors are true then it's confirming the club is screwed from the top down.
                        SUPER DRAGON!

                          PARRAMATTA fullback Michael Gordon could be on the move to the Sydney Roosters as early as next week to free up further salary cap space so the Eels can retain star playmaker Corey Norman.

                          In what shapes as a double blow for Parramatta, Canberra-bound Junior Paulo appears to have played his last game for the club with the barnstorming prop likely to be a late scratching against Newcastle on Monday.
                          And in an extension to the mid-season game of musical chairs, Paulo’s pending signing by the Raiders could see Newcastle pick up rising forward Mitchell Barnett, while young Roosters centre Brendan Elliot could also find himself on the move to the Knights if ­Gordon’s release is granted.
                          Michael Gordon could be off to the Roosters as early as next week. The Saturday Telegraph can reveal Gordon’s possible departure is being talked about behind closed doors but there are several scenarios that still need to play out to make it possible.
                          While no deal has been done to release Gordon, it is understood the Roosters are keen to snap up the well-respected 32-year-old to help ease the pressure on young fullback Latrell Mitchell as he settles into the week-to-week grind of the NRL.
                          Gordon’s departure would also be reliant on the Roosters releasing Elliott, and the Knights being able to fit him into their already stretched salary cap.



                          While Parramatta have a ready-made replacement for Gordon in former Junior Kangaroo fullback Clint Gutherson, Gordon’s possible exit would still further weaken the Eels who have already had to let go ­Nathan Peats to the Gold Coast.
                          Norman’s contract negotiations have been put on hold following his recent drug charge relating to allegations that surfaced at The Star casino last weekend. While the Eels would be reluctant to let Gordon go, he is off contract at the end of the season and a move to the Roosters would likely extend his NRL career following his shift from Cronulla.

                          Meanwhile, the next time Paulo lines up in the NRL could be next weekend when the Raiders play against Manly.
                          As revealed in The Daily Telegraph on Thursday, Canberra and Paulo’s agent Sam Ayoub were desperate for him to quit the Eels immediately.
                          Junior Paulo could line up for the Raiders next week. Picture: Jenny Evans Paulo was issued a police warning for consorting with convicted criminals, including former Nomad Paulie Younan and Rafat Alameddine on Friday night.
                          Ayoub stressed the importance of Paulo getting out of Sydney, and said during the week: “The purpose behind the madness in signing with Canberra when we did was to get Junior away from some distractions and elements, and I believe it would be in his best interests to make the move to Canberra now rather than wait until next year.’’
                          While it’s not understood Paulo has yet been granted an official release by Parramatta he has spoken with the coaching staff and the players about his intentions.

                            lol.

                            Is Hodkinson on $4 million a year?

                              Gordon is 32, this reeks of desperation.

                              Chook.
