Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Tiger-ferret]

IMO Woods did the most damage to the Wests Tigers brand during the "Big 4" era. Nothing made us look more like a second rate club then our captain leaving the administration on read for months of negotiations, publically pursuing opportunities at multiple clubs and doing an extremely selfish unenlightened tell all interview which painted the club in an awful position.

He was a Tigers junior, our most capped representative player and had took on the baton as ambassador of our club though captaincy. He basically flushed any respect the club the had in recruitment circles down the toilet while wearing the armband.

I'm so happy Madge didn't welcome him back. We need to set our value, show that we are a club that deserves a positive public image. Taking back Woods is the professional equivalent of taking back the ex that proudly boasted about their promiscuity. He doesn't just get his fairytale just because it's the morally "right" thing to do. He is a declining below average forward who devalued the club while holding its highest honour.

Well written, my thoughts exactly!

If you could possibly forget his behaviour as WT captain during the whole 'big 4' saga, I do not see his value as a footballer. I can't believe he got the St George contract. He does nothing in attack and can be a liability in defence.
But, in my opinion, you can't forget what he did. As a club we need to stand for more than that. His disloyalty should mean he never has a role with us as a player or in his after football life.

Woods ain't welcome around here.

I think only way i'd accept him back would be if he came with cap in hand really wanting to be at the club and take minimum wage.

WT have much more to be upset with what Woods did to us than vice versa.

He himself was not a big loss but he made it very difficult to retain the ones we wanted to.

Woods is yesteryear , he did the wrong thing to our club and the footy gods paid him back. 3 different clubs , no rep footy , playing off the bench mostly , what a fall from where he was ,

Yep Karma hit him the hardest out of any player that left us. Good riddance

I'd have no issue having Woods return to the club based on on-field performance. It can't have been a happy club to be in at that time and he was a relatively young and inexperienced captain.

Moses and Woods were very good players for the WTs and it is a shame it ended the way it did.

He'd probably make our bench based on experience but I like our current crop of forwards atm. No way I'd bring him over just so he can block the path of some youngster coming through

Does anyone wonder how we missed a young man from Wellington who ended up at the Broncos? Staggs is just a brilliant centre three quarter and shut down all the talk of Talaki. You have to admire his play and that of his partner, Farnsworth, who could possibly be one of the best Brit backs in recent years. It makes you believe we should be recruiting young Brits at an earlier age to expose them to a higher standard of footy.

We already have a strong Experienced leader in that role - Tamou

Woods is only looking for a splash of cash as he fades into insignificance.

He could have been a Club Legend and Fan favourite.

I have no idea for sure but from talking to him and his circles as a teenager he was always set on the broncs…

We could always go a better fowards leader, I think Api will fill this role nxt yr.
Tamou has had 2 decent games for us in 2 years and they haven't been earth-shattering.
Screw woods tho

The Roosters love to have everything that is shiny and new - Call me crazy but it wouldn't shock me if they offered us Teddy for 2024 so they could free space to sign Munster

(especially seeing Teddy looks like he is losing a yard or two of pace)

I have got to behave if I want to grow into a respectable member of society. It's never too late to get one's radar adjusted 😉

Woods is done and dusted. stoked he's at the retirement home that is the dragqueens. far too many good young props coming through on our books that deserve a top 30 spot over him.

The points are from trophies.. received.. you don't loss points any long time member will have the same amount of points 113.. it's a system generated process.. things like making posts receiving reactions to a post etc..

The warning system you accumulate points that could lead to a week, month, or permanent ban depending on the breach and expire at different time periods..
