Pretty amazing coming from you considering the only thing in your profile pic that appears to have a functioning brain is the dog...

Why haven’t we replaced Mikaele with another prop for this year we need one asap & we have one spot left

I thought we had still one spot to fill also

They could only afford rainwater, let’s try to remain objective. Maybe he needs Alfred sir?

Seeing all of the signings rumours and theories have dried up and we’ve resorted to ripping into each other I thought I’d take the opportunity to post a team I’d love to see for 2023.

• Swap Brooks for Burton
• Purchase Angus Chrichton and Joe Tapine

1. Burton
2. Maumalo
3. Naden
4. Toa
5. Nofoaluma
6. Laurie
7. Hastings
8. Utoikamanu
9. Korisau
10. Tapine
11. Papalii
12. Chrichton
13. Doueihi

14. Musgrove
15. Ofengahue
16. Twal
17. Blore
18. Madden

It looks like releasing Makaele was more about letting him take up a contract in Super League rather than freeing up a spot for an incoming. If ones does come, that's great, we don't have to move someone on, but otherwise we will probably upgrade from within. Just a guess by me though.

 

[Stevec]

Looking what we need is 2 or 3 more power forwards + a fit Douehi and fit Roberts and maybe try Madden at no 6 just a gut feeling he might get more instinctive

[851]

Been a while 851, so hope things are well.

A lot has happened mate, not all good with my mum, she had a massive stroke on christmas eve, she is basically paralysed down her left side, it has taken months to sort out all the stuff involved after that

Sorry to hear that mate, hope your mum improves soon.
Thoughts of all your forum friends are with you and your mum.

Agree about the forwards, but I think Roberts will be moved into a mentor role/retire. We have a few options at 6 already: Brooks, Douehi and Laurie?? We only have Hastings as 7, seeing as how we seemed to have moved on from Brooks in that role, so probably need to keep Madden as the 7 backup.

The team I listed above has released, or not retained, Luciano Leilua, Luke Brooks, James Tamou, Kelma Tuilagi, Luke Garner, Jacob Liddle, James Roberts, Tom Mikaele etc

I love it when someone takes the time to steal all these players from other teams and somehow squeeze them in our side in a team list...

But then has To'a in the Centres 😂😂😂

If you're going all out and playing Fantasy Footy, Don't keep any nufties...

So Brooks is useless, terrible, waste of space blah blah blah…but he‘s good enough to trade for Burton 🤔

Very saddened to hear that,like many on here i missed your input.Take care

Thanks mate, I have had a lot to sort through, even making sure my dad is alright after finding mum a care facility, centrelink, bank accounts, super funds, doctors, physios, becoming power of attorney for both mum and dad the list was endless, hopefully now I can get some clear air

If Sheens is true to his word, I don't think we'll see any movement/recruitment until we get a coach.
The whole reason for Madge to go mid season is so the new coach can have his own roster.
The longer we wait for a coach the longer it's going to take to sign players.
With this in mind I don't think miracles will happen for the remainder of the season unless Noddy turns Gatorade into wine (Noffa might like that 🤭)
It will be interesting to see what attitude the tigers will turn up with on the weekend, after all they are playing for their future. 🤔

Great strength to you and your family champion @851.
The shock is bad enough, but it's amazing what we find within ourselves, in adversity.
All the best in this journey.
