Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Exactly . I don’t even think Ciraldo is the answer and Flanagan scares me as well .
To me it’s either Kristian Wolfe , purely on the fact he’s not sitting on the sideline , and he’s winning titles . It’s just it’s in an inferior league , so there’s that .
Or …. And this won’t happen because it’s pure madness , but right up the sheenius alley , hire the walker brothers . That style fits right into what the tigers culture really is . Attacking flair and lots of fun . But that’s a crazy idea I know , and is a massive swing for the fences

I'm with you re The walker Bros @Strongee

I'd be over the moon if they came here and it worked out well.
The type of entertaining game they have coached would not only be good for WT but good for the NRL.

But from comments made on ABC radio recently it seems their opportunity may have flown unfortunately.

Matto would be a great buy can play in the mids and edge a spot we are lacking in for next year, if okane or Blore come on than both Papalii and matto can play in the middle, he was my favourite player in 2019 and I agree I hated him for how he left but maybe the madge stories were true as we’ve just seen with stefano.

I was rooly rooly p'd off 😡 when Madge was TERMINATED.

But looking back he may have been a very hard task master.
Example...playing Robbie Farah with a broken bone in his leg in the shemozzle last game of the season at the 5th Wonder a couple of years ago against Cronulla.
He even admitted after the match he made a mistake in allowing Farah to play.
But at the time Madge was obviously desperate for his boys to win that match to secure a much needed place in the semis.

But I suppose really it wasn't much different to Cooper Cronk playing in that GF with a busted shoulder, he inspired his Rooster team mates to a great win.
Madge probably thought Farah could inspire our blokes enough to pull their fingers out, then go on to win the match.

If Tamou was replaced with Tapine or Thompson and we added say, Angus Crichton as a starter, then that’s the right mixture.

ATM Twal, Farts, Tamou and Stefano are all too similar

Agree but all props. Are you suggesting that’s where Blore’s future lies?

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 @851
Been a very distressing time for Your Mum, and You as well obviously.
I know from personal experience how devastating a stroke can be with my Mum.
I was with her when she had the stroke so I was able to get an ambulance pretty quick which I think would have lessened the effect the stroke had on her.
Life should not be like this, but with Lots of LOVE Your Mun will gain strength from that and be ok hopefully.

I have arranged inhouse physio's in the aged care facility I found her, I have also arranged a stroke physio to visit once a week as well to give her the best shot at some form of a recovery

I’d play burton at fullback gives him more freedom to open up his running game and you can still use him to kick us out of trouble and doughi our future captain still gets to play 5/8

Burton is an excellent centre.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Burton is an excellent centre.

I think he’d be a gun fullback

 

[Cobarcats]

I think he’d be a gun fullback

No he wouldn't

I really feel for you mate, I lost my mum in similar circumstances, it was difficult to communicate. She used to squeeze my finger to say yes....heartbreaking.
Your very nobel mate 👍

 

[GNR4LIFE]

No he wouldn't

Yes he would

 

[Cobarcats]

Yes he would

No he wouldn't

 

[GNR4LIFE]

No he wouldn't

Since you’re so sure, I guess that settles it then.

No loss for us. Jack is a liability, 17 weeks of suspensions in 3 years,...and Adam is just a grub

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Good player though.

 

[Leck]

Good player though.

Yeah when he's on the field, but I doubt Adam will be able to change his tackling style

 

[GCfan]

Either option is very good.

Paws can you see Morris having pulling power with players though? I can’t. Might be a good development coach but whoever we sign is going to need to put some class and experience around the youth.
