Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

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

Yes but not likely until at least 2024 - there's a small matter of the 2023 Rugby Cup to face in October next year for him in the meantime. Hmmm? WestsTigers or the All Blacks - What the Haka - go the Tigers!

I only noticed him because he abused Shane Walker like a juvenile tosser!

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

Matterson and Momo.

Braith Anasta, Esan Marsters, Jack Littlejohn, Asipeli Fine,
Jacob Miller... Worked real well 😂

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

He hasn't played Rugby for years.

He has to finish this season then go over for one season before the world cup. Assuming he would be a centre it would still take time. Doubt he'd get picked.

Rehab.

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

Promising player I think.

Do u know what official injury was club never provided update.

While Angus sounds good on paper. It would be important to know what his intentions are.

What's he won two GFs, played for Roosters, maybe his stale with footy what's going to Tigers under madge, going to do for that?

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.

This will probably be an unpopular opinion but I don’t see any rush to go and spend on wingers. When we have Nofo and Maumalo fit they are good enough. Until we have some decent centres, anther good 2nd rower and a consistent threat at fullback, wingers aren’t going to change diddly. Look at the Dogs if you need proof.

Hope he doesn’t. Would love him at the Tigers!

Has also left Madge once before....
It looks like a brilliant signing - But feels like a bad one to me....
Something off about it all.

One of the funniest tweets I've seen someone said they are convinced Staines is just a fan who somehow ended up in the Penrith team.

Hahaha.... man.

Esan came from East's?

I watched Jack LJ come through and he was a gun, at east's and Manly.

Was a cup player with us.

Chricton is the least of the Roosters problems. He was great last year and he is suffering from the clunky attack just like the rest of the team. If they have to make room to get what they need to fix the problem he will be surplus to requirements but he would be a great acquisition for us.

 

[Fainu Brothers]

Another failed target. I don’t have much confidence signing Angus, he will use us as a pawn to getter a big contract elsewhere. Happy with Dykes I think he will become our fullback for years to come!!

 

[Savvy]

That would be incredible. Tuiaki Mk2.

Is Dykes even confirmed yet ? Until an announcement is done we seem to be there for players to up there price. By the sounds of it he would be a great pickup if true

Yeah - Esan got punted after Ball and we picked him up for 20's from memory....
JLJ was a big body... Dunno if he was Hungry enough - He had it in the early days.

I sort of agree but I'm getting getting less concerned about our centres as well. To'a and Kepaoa are starting to look good.

We need an edge back rower. Crichton would be great but we don't want to get our cap smashed. I can imagine Crichton and Papalli on either edge though.

The big upgrade position to me is fullback. If we could somehow get a quality fullback we'd be a lot better.

I like Staines as a signing though. Like To'a he could play fullback. He is quick and may force his way into our team. It does depend on dollars.
