  @2005magic said in WT Player Recruitment & Retention for 2019: @GNR4LIFE Possible, but it doesn’t hurt to be in front. He has previously stated he was open to going over to ESL, no doubt WT would have to sweeten the pot. His hammys would love England.

  @WT2K said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours: @Geo said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours: @WT2K said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours: @851 said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours: @WT2K said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours: With Cronk announcing his retirement the chooks can now sign TPJ, Taupau and Haas whilst staying under the cap. That’s right he signed for way less than the million dollars reported they told everyone, but now he has left they will have $1.5 million to spend. I can pm those that want to know how they paid their players outside of the cap in the early 2000s. Just let me know. Easy and it doesn’t have to be a PM…I’ll tell you now… 1 Polits and his mates are crap at golf 2.Helps when you never have to pay for food, drinks, clothes, hotels, cars, boats, education, ciggies or women when you go out ever again for life once you pull on a Rorters Jersey… Didn’t want to air it out lol but pretty close to the money I’ve heard the same stuff (I’m not well connected, just a lifetime of following league). The same thing used to happen in older times with other Sydney clubs, but Roosters have it going now with a wealth of well-connected, business and finance-oriented supporters. So you get your salary, which is pretty decent, and then everything else is taken care of, wink wink. Your salary goes a long way when you have zero cost of living expenses!

  @Russell Yeah I have nothing on this story, but I think we should bite the bullet on Josh. I know it’s a lot of money but we will hopefully benefit in the end.

  @GNR4LIFE said in A few players potentially on the outer at their clubs.: Think too much stock is put into coaches attracting players they coached at previous clubs. With Darius and Unca Wayne being the outlier…

  Sezer fits no recruitment ideas from us. Is he GOOD, i.e. better then 50% of the halves out there. NO Is he dirt cheap? Probably not and will go to ESP for 500K or so. The only way i see him fitting is if McGuire goes “lets get a team managing half and shift Brooks to 5/8”. Sezer can kick, and defend. His team management is better then Brooks but no Maloney or Cronk ofcourse. What about Reynolds? Shift him to Center. He is a ok 5/8. His defense and running game is more like a center. His passing is below average for a 5/8 but above average for a center. All said and done. PASS on Sezer. Although Ricky has a habit of burning halves who can be quite good.

  @Newtown said in REPORTS: Welch attracting interest from multiple Sydney clubs: According to Daily Telegraph Parra are unlikely to offer Gutherson the money he is askng. Could Wests Tigers be interested? That’s cool but what about Christian Welsh

  At the game the other night, watching him behind the play which you dont see on TV, he does way way more than I gave him credit for. Worth every cent in these last 2 games.

  I would agree in dropping Stevanovic and putting Talau in at 5/8 for now. Talau needs to touch the ball more, however i don’t see him playing first grade as a 5/8 so perhaps they’re trying to prepare him for the future by allowing him to acclimatise to a different position earlier on. Young Rizk in Balmain’s SG Ball side looks a top centre. Very fast and elusive. After he’s finished his duties in SG Ball i’d look to put him at centre alongside Bradley (if we stick with that plan) and have Cini over next to Scolari so that there’s a mix of size and pace on both flanks. I think Talau and Madden will be a good combo in terms of balancing the attack, both trusting the other and both having the skill to trouble the opposition. Talau won’t overplay his hand either. Balmain’s SG ball side does have a couple of decent back rowers too, Sykes, Smyth. They should get a look in as the WT Flegg back row is a definite weak link. I agree Seyfarth works hard but has little impact. If anything it’s his work ethic which makes him look worse, as he keeps putting his hands up to hit the ball up despite having little impact. He’s like a bigger version of Lovett to me.
