Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I watched a fair bit of Daine in junior reps and he was better at 6 then at 1 IMO. He played a bit in NSW cup at 6 and more than held his own.

Yeah I'd like to see Daine at 6,7 Douhie,13Jackson

I think it is time to experiment with Daine at half and Tupou at Fullback.

Bulldogs are unearthing a few young backs Casey, Kiraz and Almonti Okunbor/ Allen and Burns still on there books for 2023 Schoupp signed to 24.

Does Charlie Staines have the potential to be a better fullback option (for us) than Daine Laurie ?

Yes

 

[Stevec]

Almost every day I read about this club or that that signing one or two new players .However the Wests Tigers apart from the one surprise Naden instant deal nothing but silence .Tim said all this would have to wait till coach appointed well that's now . Would love to see something apart from who's leaving or maybe leaving

As I have stated before throw $800,000 at sulasi for fullback. Would be hard to knock back, even with KFC’s brown paper bags. Even in our juniors we don’t have any one coming through that plays fullback like him.
Sheens make it happen!

I feel like if we're going to throw 800k at a player, we should at least know his name.

 

[InBenjiWeTrust]

Yes

No🙂
We need a proper solution, and Staines is just a band aid, the same as Laurie or the AD, we shall stop signing mediocratic players.

Attacking threat. 🔥

Avoids contact in all forms - Attack and Defence
Always has...

Problem with him is, His pay request - Would be based off his highlights reel or Lower Grades form.
If we're going after IP housemate to keep him happy, We're going after the wrong one....

You seen our centre depth ?

Surely Hayze is better than Pauga and Kei

I'd easy pay that amount. He is a gun and should have a lot of improvement in him. It'd probably be really hard to get him but he'd be a massive signing for us.

In keeping with our new philosophy, expect the announcement of Jesse Sue soon

Huh, he off to England I thought

Sure have....
Isn't it you that bang on about us signing the gods of state cup?
He's just another one.

We have centres coming through... I'd be going for top liners.
As I said, If we need one of IP's flatmates - Lets get the good one.

Was going to say that,I think he'll be good for us. Can he talk much at fullback?
Seems shy which is understandable at his young age.

 

[Kelce68]

'make it happen!'

...is up there with 'full credit to the boys'. Get off the cliche sauce.

Anyone who has Tupou at FB hasn't ever spoke to him....
He should never be there.
Isn't even old enough or been around long enough to be able to read the game.

He's a timid timber... Leave him on the Wing.

He has a decent pass and strong carry. But would think would be a bit slow for FB.

I'd experiment at centre.

Failing at some of the basics of wing atm..

It’s a bit of a red flag if you’re getting to this point of the year and you are still unsigned. Unless there is a bidding for you, which for him, I very much doubt.
