Locke to Roosters story on radio

[Guest]

I highly doubt the authenticity of this rumour. Locke has already been signed by the Warriors for 2013. Why would we buy Scheck if we had already signed Locke? And what about young Wells? So the media has dropped off the Dugan rumour and replaced it with Locke. Remember when every media report suggested Dugan was a done deal for 2013?? Very accurate 'done deal' that was!

Is that 1 million %.

Where can I look that up?

I saw it on NRL news and the newspaper awhile ago.

Do you mean NRL.com.au. Did you read it in the Telegragh?

Is their a site that we can look up to see when NRL players contracts are up?

There ya go Mick.

Well then that puts that rumour to bed.

Then again contracts can all of a sudden change.
If the warriors go well this year (I tip them to win the comp), they may have a salary cap problem & suddenly Locke is available?

[Guest]

he was signed the same time as JP Du Plessis as a speedster. I try to keep an eye out for him. always interested in how rugby players go when making the switch.
We also have a previous Aussie 7s player from Randwick who is very quick. His name eludes me. Lightening fast.

Aplon is the type of player the Roosters need..as fast winger/fullback with a great step,great talent and always puts his body on the line which is great from him considering his size.

Mate he sounds exactly what we need..

Can you please have a word to his manager (as it sems you know him quite well) & tell him Chookpen Members would love to have him at the Roosters (even though we've got no idea who he is)..

This is rubbish! from inside the club i can assure you, Sheck should be @ fullback before seasons end and is going unbelievably well, we also have Wells..

Who's he going unbelievably well against??? The fresh air at training!
Everyone kills it at training in the off season.

Also, is Mini going anywhere before seasons end that we don't know about??
As long as Mini is fit he will be playing fullback.

You do realise that clubs have opposed sessions which in some cases are as tough as a real match?

[Guest]

Exactly Thirteen. I mean this guy could become a great fullback but he has proved absolutely nothing yet. To say he will be first grade fullback by the end of the year is laughable when he is yet to even play under 20's.

Yes but there is nothing like playing against a real opposition who want to really hurt you.

[Guest]

You're kidding, right? An opposed session is nothing like a first grade game.

[Thirteen]

Looke would be a great buy. He could out sprint most of our 'speedsters' on crutches!!
Good for fullback and wing.

geez some of you guys are always after a quick fix! Take it as fact..we will NOT be buying an established firstgrade fullback. There are a bunch of kids the club has invested in and who will ultimately have first dibs when mini retires. wells,alofa,shleck one will win the battle wait and see. Yes there is a risk with these young kids and expectations but the same goes when paying overs for big names. We've had our share of purchases go pear-shaped over the years as well.
I'm banking on either schleck or wells to come through. Check out youtube videos of keebra high with wells playing fullback. Speed to burn this kids. There is a rugby sevens match which shows his step and speed on display numerous times.
