Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[BAGNF05]

There are quite a few better halves than Brooks, what I am saying is your spine has to be balanced. Someone has to play first receiver and take control on the last. Someone has to distribute in the middle, and you need at least one player that can create opportunities when they get some space, have vision and put people into gaps with good passes. We have not had balance for years, we have bought the best players we could and it has been difficult to see the overall plan like you can with the better teams.

And at the end of the day, 90% of their work goes unnoticed if you don’t have a Cobbo or a Suaalii to chuck the icing on it.

Bit of mongrel. Tamou is a nice fella but not agro enough. Too many nice guys at WT.

Willing to run through a brick wall for the cause type

Hastings and AD are a perfect match Jacko creates and kicks and AD runs pretty damn simple combo

Brooks and Hastings were good when they had a fullback.

Forward back still has some holes in it too.

How would we receive news of Luke Thompson to us for 600k ?

Waste of money.

The club will officially offer Angus Crichton a 3 year contract this week worth close to $2.2million over the span of the contract, sticking point will be the issue of who will be coach as we are main attraction to him to be back under Madge.

Also Doueihi is being put through his paces today & has an appointment this afternoon with a specialist to be cleared to play this Friday.

Luke Brooks early indication is grade 1 hamstring 2-4 weeks.

The talk of Franklin Pele is new to anyone at the club, his management last informed the club he had better offers elsewhere.

Club also trying to fast track a move for Kade Dykes this week, they want him at the club before the bye round. 2023 terms agreed upon.

Crichton not getting a contract offer from us and Doueihi still weeks away.

Sorry guys.

Unbelievable ?!
Does that mean we are looking at sacking Madge?

 

[Telltails]

Well there you go ... back to reality.

He's not worth that to us and not worth that to the Bulldogs. That is why they want to get rid of him. It is better for us that he remains at the Dogs causing salary cap problems.

Also the club has never made an offer to Nikora and Tim has never heard of Matthew Komolafe, the youngster at Parramatta who is reportedly being chased by Tim himself.

Thank you for the update.

I'm not a Maguire fan but he should be judged on results, not on the players he signs.

So who’s talking rubbish, Chris or The Pom?

Their mail is 100% opposite of each other!!

🤦🏻‍♂️

 

[craigtob]

Luciano and Kelma, out
Papaliii and Angus, in

🔥🔥🔥

Tigers on the UP.

Sounds good on paper i guess?, but when you look at this as a whole, =2 out and 2 in, back to square one, nothing will change until we up the stakes and purchase more 1st grade players than we let go.

That's why this is the " Signing Suggestions & Rumours" Thread.

Ps things can change in days or hours.

 

[pawsandclaws1]

Hopgood should be a target. Billy Slater confirmed he is an NRL quality player stuck behind good players in the Panthers' pack.

So madges meeting at a Cafe with nikora back in march was just lunch.....right

you think they would discuss money without his agent present? That's if it was Nikora at the meeting. We only saw the back of him.

It's not about who is talking rubbish or not. The Pom has his mail and I have mine. Let's see if Doueihi plays this week or next week and you'll know.

I don’t recall the Pom actually saying Doueihi will play.

From the Pom
‘Also Doueihi is being put through his paces today & has an appointment this afternoon with a specialist to be cleared to play this Friday.’

sounds more like its in the hands of the medical staff.
