General Rene Ranger a Warrior?

[Spence_old]

Ah, well that's a good sign, if he is somewhat interested, rather than us throwing bigger sacks of money at him until he gives in.

Who, in the name of Zeus's butthole, is Rene Ranger?

Watch the video that TD posted.

Well, I guess if Athena emerged from his head anything is possible.

 

[Spence_old]

Gotta love Greek mythology.

Some nut-squeezer geezer - plays for the Auckland Poos I think?

Hopefully when Santa comes slithering down Rene Ranger's chimney this Christmas he's holding a massive contract offer from the Warriors.

Does this rumour have any legs or is it bullshit?

It isn't even a rumour. It's a plea, if anything.

fruean is the only option

 

[Spence_old]

Don't rate Ranger, or don't believe he'd come over?

 

[danpatmac_old]

fruean is the only option

doesn't he have some big heart condition?

too risky?

 

[kingdamo_old]

Ranger or Hosea Gear would be a gun centre/winger.

 

[Spence_old]

Hosea would be good, but I think Ranger's offloading game would be absolutely genius in league.

 

[RobRoyMcCoy_old]

WOW. I watched that Ranger highlight film and he looks tailor made for league. I love the fact that he can play both sides, wing or centre. He runs straight and hard, hits hard, has genuine pace, is strong in the tackle, has a good passing game and an fantastic offload. I suppose the Warriors could afford him and we could use a decent centre/wing option until our young fellas come through.

I suspect Bluey will work with Inu and have him set to have a run at centre at some stage next year. I wouldn't be suprised if he works out a treat.

 

[casso_old]

Wow!

I watched the clip.That guy is really good.What a pickup he would be.I understand that he can't make the all blacks but are u telling me he is not a regular in the Auckland blues.Gee,they must have some seriously good players if he isn't the 1st. centre picked every week.

 

[Swanley_old]

Don't really like threads or stories like this.

We might as well start a thread saying Warriors could sign SBW, Thurston and Swanley all for the 2013 season.

Pointless as it won't happen (well, I'm a chance if a contract was offered for a haltime orange peeler).

Unless the club make a statement or we get some inside info from our regular contacts then MEH!

 

[Spence_old]

I like it as it generates some hype, and might make him think twice about joining our ranks. And I don't know if it is comparable to SBW or Thurston, the best players in the world compared with a bench Auckland player... And don't get me started on Swanley, that's our whole cap gone just there.

You never know mate, you just never know (on both Rene and you getting a contract as orange peeler :yo.

Last year John Hart approached Rudi Wulf (cousins with Jerome Ropati) about playing for the Warriors but Rudi went overseas (altho now I believe he's coming back again?).

Yea, Rudi is back playing for Massey and North Harbour this year.
