Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

It’s early days, but the same excuses are coming out. His injury doesn’t cause him to throw intercepts and not make contact with the ball when he attempts to kick it.

100%

not make contact with the ball when he attempts to kick it.

That's actually happened a few times....

Sign Dominic Young and teach him to play fullback

Yes they did, they wanted Woolfe, and he turned them down

Woolfe turned them down. But they didn't make a press release saying that he did like we did with Ciraldo.

Their owner flew to the UK to sign him only to be rejected.

Could you imagine if they did? I don’t think even they were that stupid to do it twice

Think about 2005 we had prince at half, benji at 5/8, farrah at hooker, hodson at fullback, all these guy's were brilliant in there positions, then think of any of the big gun teams,over the years especially storm, always have the great players in those spots, we need to get rid of a heap of ordinary players that are rubbish, then take about 35% of our salary cap, and purchase the best we can in these positions, the rest of the team you only need decent players that dont cost a fortune, the big four you get will lead the rest of the team and they will follow the exeptional players and lift their games. How many times òver the years have you said were does storm get all these great players from, they aren't great players when Melbourne got them but they pretty quickly become great players simply by who is leading them, usually the numbers 1 - 6 - 7 - 9 and a couple of good front rowers.

Cameron George saying this is no rebuild and the roster is ready to go. They expect Webster to get results with their squad. A very different scenario to what we are selling.

I think Tigers only used the word "development" not "rebuild"?

No matter what the Warriors owners might say, Andrew Webster is in for a tall order.

 

[bathursttiger1]

Also didn't publicly announce that who they had already interviewed had turned them down either... I doubt Webster was their first choice.

Everyone knew that Cameron George flew the the UK to get Woolf and he rejected the Warriors, so they didn’t keep that quite.

George Williams

Yeah, but they didn't come out publicly and say hey this guy rejected us.

Either way I still think it was a bizarre move by the club to make a press release saying Ciraldo told us to jog on. Which was my point.

I see the nsw cup coach , wants to be our 1st grade coach , there is only one team going worse than are 1st grade side and it’s our nsw cup side . So I guess he will most probably get the job

 

[Krammy]

Brooks 7
Douihei 6
Hastings 13 this bloke is to slow to create plays and can’t beat a man to have a overlap. If anyone thinks Hastings is the saviour at 7 is dreaming

If he is injured and his pace has been affected, fair enough. He does seem slow. AD i not that quick either. Hastings and AD in the halves would be one of the slowest pairings in the NRL

I have said we need to buy 3 to 5 players to add to API and Papi but after watching our NSW cup team , my god they are poor we need to buy at least 10 new players into our top 30 min 10 , Peach , Roberts , Simpkin , Madden , and so on and so on are rubbish , couple young guys having a crack but gee we are in big trouble player wise

I agree it should have been kept "In house", but I think that there is a lot more to this than we know.
I think CC lead WT's up the garden path and then left them in the lurch and looking stupid.

 

[Cobarcats]

If he’s playing with a injury than he’s letting the team down if he’s not 100%. No point having him in the side at all

Exactly mate, thats why I said earlier he should have a rest and get himself right. I dont know the extent of his injury though. 🤔
