It’s been entertaining reads last day or so.
Keep it up boys and girls.
If you throw enough darts your bound to get a bulls eye ….. eventually.
At least it’s conversation suited to the thread topic.

Sorensen > Garner. Might win a ring in reginalds

Sorensen - Martin - Mav Geyer…

And god knows what else is coming through the grades there - he’ll be doing well to get a spot

His big problem in my opinion is his attitude. Nothing in the effort areas. Also lacks mongrel.

Quote from Garner’s manager re his move to Penrith ;

““The Tigers have had some lean years and Luke hasn’t been able to play finals footy, but now he is joining a Rolls Royce footy side and he is keen to press for a grand final and hopefully win a comp.”

Ouch ….
Harsh, but fair in my view .

If he makes first grade.

Haas is 100% not joking the tigers I’ll bet you $1000 if he leaves two clubs a in contention that’s roosters of bulldogs

Maybe not, but how do the Bulldogs or Roosters fit him in?
Gotta have a back up plan and it may just be the player that expendable.

Nice to have nug gnikoms back on the forum. Been a while. Guess he figured that without mods he can come back and do what he wants

Ganrer is a fringe 1st grader at a bottom 4 club.
His versatilty was appreciated,but his skill level means the only premiership he's see will be the KOE Cup at the Panthers...theres so many better there already with more coming through
Bad career decision for him,but forces us to upgrade

He's apparently taking a pay cut to play in Reges? I don't think so. More like a backup for Salami Kickass which has been quoted in the press.
Luke is a good player and one that we should keep but the fact that we're not indicates a clean out.
I smell a recruitment thinga majig happening.
Maybe the recruitment rumours of Bird or Nikora might eventuate.
Or something bigger 🤔😀

No one figured out who I am yet

I wish Garner all the best at the Panthers. Being in a strong system, among a host of very talented players under Cleary's coaching may see him advance his career.

I'm a believer of not spitting on a club / organisation you are leaving as you never know if you might need that club again or someone at that club who might make the decision on your next move..
If it's true its disappointing considering the club has given up a chance to play 1st grade.

Garner is average.

Glad he's going.
Hopefully we can get better players on the books than his calibre.

Yeah he a good 6 months one season and some good patches. I had high hopes for him but we need better consistently.
I liked having someone in the side a could nickname Rockford as I was a fan of The tv show.

disrespectful as well
I'd send him packing now if those comments are legit

Tigers are looking at the possibility of luring Payne Haas to concord with him having a get out clause in his contract for next season if a club comes knocking he can leave for the 2023 season

Thats even crazier than the first post that there was a chance we would get him. So let me get this straight - we get him early - this year but only if we give him a get out clause for 2023 if another club ( see remaining 16 clubs ) offer him a contract that he accepts.

I went back and re read your post - i get what you ae saying now - the get out clause is with Brisbane. So we will be just 1 of 16 clubs talking to him.

 

[weststigerman]

Garner is a good squad player. Not the end of the world losing him though.

As someone said earlier, it all depends what he’s replaced with.

 

[supercoach]

Garner going to Riff is similar to some of Bellyache’s signings. He will go well in the Riff system..if he can crack a start. You don’t need to be a super star when you have great players around you in key positions

geez maybe if he was as good as he obviously thinks he is he should have been dragging the tigers to the finals single handedly
