Angus is a super star

He's top 5 second rowers in the game.
I like his attitude too.

He's the perfect complimentary player to match with iPaps.

Hard nosed and experienced those pair and would he good to mentor our young pack coming through.

I love it.
Hopefully Madge and Sheens get the job done.

If the Roosters wanted to keep him they would find a way, they always do. That they're not will tell you all you need to know.

Our roosters rejects have worked out in the past, albeit brief.

Matterson and Momo.

Can see it now...
Club asks to meet at apartment 1027 & gives player own set of keys to use to enter
Player walks in and sees a view of shark park with centred table with a bucket of KFC on it
Player grabs the piece of chicken & is asked do you want to sign
Player responds "finger lickin good - give me more legs, less ribs & apartment 1028 instead"
Club agrees & hands over a refresher wipe with a tub of gravy

A refresher wipe that is now about 8cm x 8cm

I read Gildart was homesick. I don't think he will be here in 2023. It will be a mutual agreement that he return to ESL. Simpkins and Liddle already told they can leave. Wouldn't surprise if Peach gets the same tap on the shoulder. Seyfarth is struggling this year but Madge seems to love him.

Good guy,but at 85kgs just too small for NRL and is looking at a long stint in reggies next year if he sticks around..which he probably wont.
Unrelated... WTs desperately need a few more wins to get some credibility for anyone considering coming here for a future.

Haven't seen or heard from him since injuries in trials, wonder what the go is.

Saw him at some trials very rangy and athletic looking, tall too, but requires a lot more development.

Matterson and Momo.

Both didn't come with the price tag of Crichton. I still think this will end in tears for WTs but you never know.

Rehab.

Got a brace on his leg.
He's been in the gym though and looking healthy.

Promising player I think.

I assume some knights fans woulda said the same about Frizzle - older than Angus.

Guys a rep player in a position we're weak in and he isn't in his 30s yet.

I'll let our recruitment team make the decision. If we get him, I will support him.

I think Simpkin and Da Silva are the two genuine hooking options long term. Unsure on what's going on with Anjoul at present but he hasn't featured too much due to injury.

Rua can play 9 and 13 as you said and would be a Brandon Smith-esque wrecking ball, whereas Tannous for mine is destined for the 14 role given his proficiency as a half, 5/8 and hooker. there's room for a few of them in both the starting 17 and the roster itself, it's just a matter of taking the right option.

Some big roster decisions to make in the coming years regarding our young ones coming through (not just for this position). We have got things in place this time round, so let's hope we get it right!

 

[Speed2burn]

I'd always be interested in Staines, his presence on the field is a threat to the opposition with that pace, If you create room, he is away.

Surely a ghee up…Staines is garbage and Penrith fans can’t wait to see the back of him

 

[Cobarcats]

Out of all the signing suggestions and rumours thus far, the Crichton one has got me excited.
If we got him and Tapine
I would be so confident about our prospects in 2023.
However good news in tiger town is far and few between

He's improved this year and unlike our club, the Panthers have depth in their squad May is a very good winger and from what was written on this forum, will be staying at the Panthers. If we can pick him up cheaply he adds a dimension to our backline and depth.

I don't think people have watched Staines this year. He is quick and running with purpose. We don't have any wingers with speed. It does come down to cost though.

 

[hammertime]

Madges kiwi touch doesn't stop at league All black international Caleb Clarke and Madge have had talks about bringing him over to the concord based club

That would be incredible. Tuiaki Mk2.

It would be awesome to get a signing like this. I reckon Angus would be really good on the right dollars as well but this guy would be huge.

Got a feeling hel end up at the Eels.

I reckon he ends up back in rugby for the 2023 World Cup
