Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Quite familiar, but not necessarily the first thing an Australian thinks about when they hear about "trojans".

You could stay historical and call a team "The Mongols", "The Horde", "The Vandals", "The Goths" or "The Huns", doesn't mean it's a good choice.

I still think the Canterbury "Crusaders" is a bad choice for a mascot, given how much immoral carnage was caused by the actual Crusaders.

Fair enough, although when I hear Trojan my mind does draw to Greek antiquity first, not a brand of condoms.

Time to give a break hey. I reckon the Pom definitely has inside info but he gets it wrong as well. Until there is an official announcement I take everything with a grain of salt.

You could be the man in charge doing all the player deals and you will still get it wrong sometimes as things can change

The Pom messaged me one time when I called him out and he said that he is not involved in the club but has a good contract high up in the club who had a lot of inside info.
He does get things wrong from time to time, but he said sometimes the situation can change at the drop of a hat and catch everyone unaware.
Most of the Pom’s info is spot on.

Seems odd??

Didn't play in the GF last year -
Started the year in Ressies...

Come back to me when Leota and Leniu are both back fit and let me know exactly when he's "First Choice" over James Fisher Harris

I couldn't stand Eisenhuth as a player.

Big but not imposing or threatening at all.
Seems like a politics player like connected to Gal and got the easy ride.

Hated seeing him line up for the Tigers.
One of the softest players we've ever had.

Funny how Cleary is not signing anyone on $1M at the riff yet he blew our salary cap out of whack
He is only doing basement buys

No need for a marquee anymore. Last was Maloney (under Gould).
Hardly could call Api, Tetavano and Capewell ‘marquee’s’
Since then the locals have become the marquees and incoming transfers have been complementary players to suit.
Since Ivan has taken hold of Penrith. He has not recruited 1 marquee (thanks Rugby League Project)

Why are people still mentioning Haas when it was a BS statement from Lee’s Fedora who suddenly disappeared when called out for saying it

What I don’t understand is why people feel the need to harass people who post rumours in a rumour thread?

If you don’t believe it, good for you. Nobody thinks you’re a hero because you “called someone out” on an anonymous forum.

It's all about paying his top players well and getting as many half decent players on lesser salaries. With us he did the same thing but he choose Reynolds and Mbye as his top tier players.

No no no, the market available to Wests Tigers choose those two.
He actually chose Shawn Johnson, Gareth Widdop, AJ Brimson, Dylan Edwards.
They just didn’t choose him or Wests Tigers.

That is his manager quoted not Garner so it would be extremely unfair to treat Garner like that

I wonder if our club isn't the greatest to deal with when ot comes to player managers negotiating, re-signing or parting ways. You don't see too many clubs getting negative comments

Similar story came out when Eisenhuth left
- He didn't win a comp... Aint first picked there.

Meh...

Think he was starting prop last week. Never the less I thought Eiso was and still is a very average forward with little to no impact.
