NRL big names could be on the move

Posted by Mr Analyst on June 25, 2019 at 8:36pm

A number of lesser profile players have made moves in recent days and rumours persist we will see even bigger names packing their bags before Sunday.

Parramatta are desperate to lure Broncos prop Matt Lodge back to Sydney - the sooner, the better.

They want him before the June 30 cut-off.

The Warriors have also thrown huge cash at the in-form front-rower for a deal beginning in 2020.

The Eels are also interested in Penrith centre Waqa Blake, while the Panthers will listen to offers for Reagan Campbell-Gillard.

Complicating matters is the fact Blake is on a long-term deal and RCG is on big coin.

But Penrith are willing to do business, particularly if it means they get Tyrone Peachey back from the Titans.

Manly have put the 'for sale' sign on unwanted playmaker Kane Elgey, while out-of-favour prop Lloyd Perrett is welcome to find a new home.

 

The Bulldogs continue to shop hooker Michael Lichaa around and may be open to discussing Rhyse Martin's future, while the Dragons could let prop Josh Kerr go after signing Patrick Kaufusi from the Storm.

One player who won't be moving before June 30 is Cronulla halfback Kyle Flanagan, despite heavy interest from the Roosters.

He will be made to see out the season at the Sharks before joining the Chooks in 2020.

      Lodge is too perfect for us. Welch is a good but doesn’t take us to the next level. We need both of them if that’s ever an option.

          RCG is in big money at the Panthers that is why they are trying to offload him, $350k you say, ha ha ha it's medication time, medication time. Yu would have to at least double that 

          • The Bug > HKF June 26, 2019 at 9:54am

            You could probably get him for around 500k for the first year or two maybe 600 the next two with panthers paying some of the contract we would by no means have to pay full amount if panthers want him gone

        • Marty > coco June 26, 2019 at 4:17pm

          Kerr being shopped by Dragons, he’s a lump n can play

    Welsh would be a good pick up but storm 100% won’t rekease  him mid season after balancing the books and moving on a few and bringing in a few , 

    I have this feeling we will snap up Perrett for no 30 spot which is just another plodder
