Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

You can't be serious. Brown is and always has been the biggest myth this game of Rugby League has ever seen.

He makes zero post contact metres and puts fear into no one.

I bet we sign this absolute myth.

Runs hard and stops like he has hit a brick wall

I never understood the hype

Train an trial deal for the rest of the year, and into the 30 man squad for
2023 - 2024

Wasting another spot in our top 30.

How about we sign a coach first so he has some spots to sign players?

Relieving cap space for the Eels so they can sign someone like Matt Lodge. No thanks. Can really only play one position in the modern game and is not the kind of player we need at the moment. Our money would be best placed elsewhere I think

Agree 100%
Again it would benefit our opposition more than us.
This would then help them free up cash to sign Lodge or Angus Crichton.
No thanks

You read half of what I said...
What's he done in the last 10 years - apart from be moved on by lower level super league clubs

Most names on that list Debuted 20 years ago - Some almost 40 years ago.

I'm a Sheens supporter, How he's seen here as someone who will single handedly lead us to some greatness now - When he couldn't do it as a coach with generational players 10 years ago is beyond me.

He may not but he’s a million times more likely than old combover and gadget.

The new signing, Triston Reilly, must have been signed whilst Madge was still coach.

Possible....

Either that or Sheens made an executive decision on a train and trial. If he’s a dud, we cut him loose. No worries with this one.

will be interesting to see if Tumeth and O'Kane are elevated into the top 30. that will reduce the amount of spots. Talau and Madden I would re-sign and hopefully we can get Kade Dykes across the line. that would take us to 30 players... I think we need a front rower though.

would like to see us try and offload Gildart and Peachey as well. neither of them are first grade quality.

Them and more,
You would think that the WT have no choice now since they made the recent announcement and the commitment for
developing players from within into the NRL team.

Worst case - He takes Keis' spot in top 30 next year....
There can be no downside to that.

Its actually hilarious how he comes to a complete stop.

He does have nice soft hands at the line, but is physically inept for NRL. Last forward we need

He has been given an NRL deal for 2023 and 2024.

I.e. we can't cut him loose...

Players 25~30 in most squads are pretty average. It’s the top 17 we need to strengthen

Was wondering that. Bit silly to announce it as a train and TRIAL deal then. Don’t expect common sense though…

From Pascoe “we’re pleased to announce we’re trialling this kid and if he doesn’t work out, we’ll stick with him until the next prime minister is installed”

How good would it be if these guys ended up being the real deal. Even 2 of the 3....actually I'd settle for just 1 of the 3 to be a future gun backrower. I have only seen highlights of O'Kane and last weeks cup game of Matamua. Very hard to tell when a youngster hasn't quite got that physique required at the moment. Fingers crossed.

We may well have signed our coach at the end of last year....

He just hasn't announced it yet.

Gives away stupid penalties too.

It is hilarious

I'm just glad someone agrees and sees it as I do

As much as I like Blore and how he achieves big time with us the poor kid was stuffed and still stopped a fired up and embarrassed Brown with ease on 3 occasions

I don't hate him BB, I think as a buisiness we are doing well, as a footy team we are going shite.
Until Sheens got here Pascoe was a whipping boy but hopefully that will sort itself out when we start winning.
I've been saying that perception means a lot for a while now so I prefer not to see this guy doing pressers but prefer to see Tim do footy related stuff.
The coach can do pre/post game pressers.
Pascoe can announce chook raffle winners.
