Not heard/seen any Carney rumour, anyone expand on this?

Cas fan posted we've signed him for 2017. On the Hanpshire thread.

Cheers

is it just me that's maybe less than overwhelmed by the possibility of penalty and yellow card magnet Carney heading this way?

I see Carney as a wing version of Gareth Hock in his pomp. He's got brain fades in him, errors and ill discipline but my god he can't half come up with some incredible plays and he can win you games.



As I say with Gelling I think you can handle a player like that in a side that plays quite structured but can you have two?! Who knows but it'd be interesting finding out.

Me too, as I posted on the other thread. Not just because of his on-field indiscretions, but his off-field antics (that were responsible for him being forced out of Cas). We don't need that kind of potential disruption at the club.

You've got a team full of kids, unless Carney wants to sign for Wormwood Scrubs xiii you'll be fine

Well, at least his defence will be up to the required standard.

Sounds like there's a chance of this happening. As long as it's for next year that's fine. We can't afford to lose him this year and ideally I'd like us to keep him but I'd guess he's on a decent wedge and there's some good potential replacements knocking about.

I suppose it's always possible that Joe Burgess will have had enough of warming the bench at the Roosters and having to wait for injuries to Mitchell, Kenny-Dowall and Tupou just to get a game. That's a sure fire way to derail a promising career. From the England team to the Roosters reserves in a matter of months.



Tupou who plays left wing currently plays SoO for NSW and also played for Australia. He's only 24 and played every game last season so I wouldn't think that Joe will get too many more chances in his favourite spot. Mitchell is thought to be the new Greg Inglis, and from what I've seen that might not be a million miles away. Kenny-Dowall is a seasoned international, with a proven track record in the NRL. I think Joe copped a bit of flack from Trent Robinson about his defence (despite his two run-in try debut) after the Rabbitohs game so the chances of a quick return to the team are poor to nil.



I've got to think it isn't Joe's best decision to leave Wigan at this stage of his career when he needs to be playing regularly.
