The NRL Lurker has been tapping away at that keyboard, busy answering all your burning questions and queries about the biggest names in rugby league.

This week there's news on:

- Potential signings for the Dragons

- Things aren't rosy on the Northern Beaches

- Will Parra re-sign Norman now?

Slide through for the full list

Ask the Lurker

@atlabps Is Parramatta seriously going to re-sign Norman on the money he's asking? Most clubs would baulk at paying overs for him.

Lurker: His price tag just went down - and you know why. They could punt him…

Ask the Lurker

@HamishCampbel12 Surely the Roosters had no interest in Hayne with young Mitchell impressing so far this season? And Hayne to stay in rugby?

Lurker: They were keener at start of year when Mitchell was an unknown and untried at this level… lot has changed since then. I think he will end up in rugby, probably in Europe.

Ask the Lurker

@Doonie67 Warriors signings/releases apart from Konrad?

Lurker: That gives them some money to spend for next year - are looking for a forward who can break the line - because there isn’t one in the joint!

Ask the Lurker

@brad_mulder Where's Hayne gonna play next year? #asklur

Lurker: Most likely rugby in Europe

Ask the Lurker

@Duffyz88 Rumours flying round Keary to Saints done? Apparently terms were agreed? Any news on Segey to saints? #asklurk

Lurker: They are in the hunt for both but neither is done yet.

Ask the Lurker

@Murphy220687 Who can you see the Dragons signing for 2017?? Surly no Marshall, Creagh n Farrell not to mention Mata'utai already gone?

Lurker: I expect them to get both Keary and Segayaro

Ask the Lurker

@Murphy220687 When will the Dragons realise it's time for a new coach? No faith in Mary unfortunately.

Lurker: He hasn’t set the world on fire - may get another year though.

Ask the Lurker

@TSkeers Any truth to Souths letting GI go to Brisbane next year and signing Hayne, rumours continue #asklurk

Lurker: Hearing Broncos may have trouble coming up with the money in the cap. Souths won’t sign Hayne.

Ask the Lurker

@vinkarno Any rumblings out of the northern beaches. Signings or leaving.

Lurker: Moltzen already gone, Nate Myles struggling and I think Tom Symonds could be moved on. Not a heap of smiles over that way

Ask the Lurker

@Tiger_Smits Are the Raiders going to sign an outside back before June 30 to replace Waqa?

Lurker: Are looking around - haven’t found anyone suitable.

Ask the Lurker

@DogsMafia01 Is Rona staying or going ? If going who have the Dogs lined up to replace him ?

Lurker: They won’t let him go - try scoring machine…

Ask the Lurker

@sherringnicky Heard a rumour that the Dragons were going to sign a Super League forward any truth?? Is Joel Thompson re-signing or leaving.

Lurker: Thompson in limbo, ditto Mitch Rein - they are looking at UK but no luck so far.

Ask the Lurker

@sherringnicky Hey Lurk Are we any closer to knowing where @Seggie and @Keary are going Dragons??. Is Jarhome Hughes done at Dragons?

Lurker: Saints definitely the front runners. Hughes will be there or Bulldogs.

Ask the Lurker

@ester_ully0036 What sort of $ did Mbye & Klemmer sign 4 a season? Will they have more 2 spend? Is so on who? What will Trex free up? #asklurk

Lurker: They got big dollars - back-ended deals - can’t get exact figures. T-Rex is on at least 500,000 a season… if not more.

Ask the Lurker

@Chris_Martin: Robbo to be punted from Roosters, Nick no more patience with him. Cleary to coach Red White and Blue?

Lurker: Every coach is allowed one bad year — this is Robbo’s. I think he will still be there next year.

Ask the Lurker

@danieldowell1: Alex Glenn offloaded by the Broncos??

Lurker: That would surprise me - good player. Broncos don’t lose many.

Ask the Lurker

@pete_0978: When are Souths going to re-sign Carter and N Brown?

Lurker: Soon I would say - but they just let their recruitment manager Grant Jones go, so that could slow things down.

Ask the Lurker

@TheDnine: Who r the Knights targeting next year? Keep hearing no cap space, with no Snowden & Uate we must have coin? #asklurk

Lurker: Desperate to keep Robbie Rochow and Tariq Sims - they are the priority ATM.

Ask the Lurker

@Lyddie1997: Any info on where Benji is off to next year?

Lurker: Unlikely to stay at Dragons or another NRL club… not many options after failed rugby union experiment.

Ask the Lurker

@N_Bonnici: Bagman set to break soon? #asklurk

Lurker: Doubtful… will be swept under rug.

Ask the Lurker

@montana_n: Who are the Warriors look at releasing (apart from Konnie) & bringing in?

Lurker: They are shopping Vatuvei around - even though they are denying it. Looking for some forwards with GRUNT.

Ask the Lurker

Barry Bond: Any news on Manly signings? Rumours are Bozo has spoken to some unhappy warriors?? and will we see Willis Meehan in maroon & white, believed to have signed already???

Lurker: NRL have to clear Meehan and T-Rex also a chance - Bozo loves size in the pack.
