Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Demps]

Disappointed to hear he is not wanting to come , but sharks are going well and we are still on 0 , I think for us we will have to pay overs to grab 3 solid players and std wage for 2 more
Jack Bird , Pele , Simms , ( simms not sure if official with storm )
we really now need to get our finger out and get some pen to paper

I would hate to sign Bird and Sims.
They won't help us.

I think we end up with someone like Euan Aitken

Prop:
Franklin Pele, Ryan Sutton, Royce Hunt

2RF:
Matt Doorey, Jackson Topine, Jack Murchie

Could do a job.
Not much to choose from.

Trying to find some type of quality signings is the problem , we may not be able to be to fussy , we have players leaving both our back rowers and we will have Papi and Blore but we need more from a list of not many , Simms and Bird are better than half our players in those spots currently , take out Kel and Lucy

 

[SeanT]

Didn't think Nikora would come. Honestly surprised we got Pap and Korisou.

Not really anyone else around to recruit even if they wanted to come.

Won't be going up the ladder for a few years yet

It gets more depressing by the day, we can not attract anyone. Locks like it’s back to the reject shop again. It will be back to paying overs for old busted players

 

[bathursttiger1]

Another Ellery we hope!!!!

Here’s praying, even a Gary Schofield will do.

Play him at Prop or Hooker....

Order of priorities: second row, centre

While we have the current system there will never be anything that resembles a level playing field. The cap is impossible to police, there is 101 ways to cheat the system and I guess all clubs are doing it, but the better clubs are far more attractive to players than the bottom clubs.

Sadly the biggest problem is lack of real talent, so demand out strips supply by some margin. If say there was 25 no6’s of Munsters ability, every team would have one and they would not cost a million dollars.

Anyway while The NRL is being run by a few self interested power brokers nothing will change

Unfortunately as it stands really good players accept a lower wage to play with favourable clubs. Look at the Roosters premiership team. We would have been like 2 million over the cap if we paid them their real value and/or the inflated salaries they would have accepted to play for us.

Dufty and Paul Vaughan not looking like getting offers form dogs for next season ( NRL Rumours ) would here guys assist us going forward

We need to keep signing the best players on the fringes. The below players are playing reserve grade this week. We wouldn’t beat the best team assembled from below. We’d get flogged.

Xavier Savage, Braydon Trindall, Frank Pele, Tyrell Sloan, Jayden Sullivan, Joseph Suali, Jackson Topine, Ted Hoy, Ben Condon, Paul Turner, Sam Lisone, Tafua Sipley, Sione Hopoate, Dunamis Lui, Elise Kotoa, Rocco Berry, Jordan Pereira, Brenton Lee.

 

[finnzo]

I’d take jack bird for sure play him at second row and leave him there all year

 

[tiger_one]

This is a very disappointing thread.
Promises so much but then fizzles.

Needed centres for years.
Needed second rowers for years, got some decent ones and we let em go... 😂

Need some props too come seasons endz, when majority of em walk out the door.

Our roster is in serious come 2023 unless we make some decent signings.

Yea we need depth to play for spots

 

[hsvjones]

After another quality showing today we would struggle to sign an under 15's player..
This is becoming a nightmare and we have Eels next ...
Can someone check to see if Sheen's is still with the club as he has been very quite the last 6 weeks.. They need to do something for us fans

 

[Telltails]

The squad is just not good enough with or without Maguire. Bulldogs spent a fortune on players we would be over the moon to have signed and can guarantee their supporters are screaming for the coach to be sacked - just like St George Broncos Newcastle Raiders all with better squads than ours and fans with expectations that arent being met. No easy fix until we find some way to assemble a better squad.
