Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Roosters won’t flick Tedesco until their done with him. Unless he does an ACL or another serious injury we have no hope of getting him until he’s about 33.

Yep. Sua'ali'i has get out clauses -
Rugby Australia will go hard for
him to play in the next World Cup
at home and British & Irish lions
tour given his pedigree. He has
get out clauses for each year of
his contract. Chooks aren't dumb

Burton is another player the ARU are targeting for the World Cup.

BENJI MAKING MOVES

Incoming Wests Tigers coach Benji Marshall has reportedly contacted Roosters superstar James Tedesco about returning to Concord.

The Tigers announced this month that Marshall will take over Tim Sheens as the Tigers head coach in 2025 and he’s wasted no time on the recruiting front.

Marshall has already sounded out Eels superstar Mitchell Moses and now also wants his former Tigers teammate Tedesco to return.

Marshall has made his intentions to Tedesco clear via text, according to the SMH.

However the same report said Tedesco’s management claimed they have not heard from Marshall or the Tigers.

Tedesco is contracted at the Roosters until the end of 2024.

The original piece is from Weidler...

The Roosters were seeing red after hearing a whisper that James Tedesco is on Wests Tigers’ hit list. They were even told new Tigers assistant and Tedesco’s former teammate Benji Marshall had sent a text message to Teddy to tell him of his intent to lure him back to the Tigers. Marshall has reportedly sent a similar text to Eels half and another former Tigers star, Mitchell Moses. I checked with Tedesco’s management and they said there has been no contact from Marshall or the Tigers.

This bloke can't make the warriors side. You want Benji to recruit him or else? Good one.

Neither could Papalli 18-24 months ago - Getting him out of the Warriors system was the best thing that happened to him.
Katoa may well not be the same - But surely he's on par with Kelma at worst?

Roosters seeing red shows their hypocrisy and alone is worth it. Precious petals.

the family club we’ve been for years , other so called family clubs - only a few exist and that are also from Sydney exclusively - are also the strugglers , year in year out .
our club should be a business , that’s what all successful teams are .
If a player is good enough ,keep him/bring him back , if he’s not good enough they very rarely want them back . Family and business don’t mix well .

Bugger texting him they are virtually neigbours now. Travel to training together!

Carpool karaoke, we all know benji has the voice to serenade.

Good. It's about time we started getting under the skin of the so called elite clubs. Hope we annoy a few more.

I would not say no to Brown, got a big of agro which we desperately need, as long as its not overs id be in for Brown

Brown not 4 me..played above his weight for a decade and body now falling to bits
Plus just gives eels funding to drag Paps back

Not me. I reckon coaches are massively overrated. I don't rate Bellamy. He is so good because he has such a good team.

He built those teams and trained them to be great.

 

[Demps]

Bellamy is the best, without a doubt


It's enjoyable seeing them lose at the moment though.

 

[Wombat]

All this talk of Brown, Moses, Teddy, Woods, Papz and Teddy.
Is just reminding me of what could have been...

Who was the coach in charge when all these guys decided to Split?
I remember Cleary told Moses he wasn't wanted... so he left and tanked.
Then they all split...

Wouldn’t be surprised if tries the NFL as a punter.

There are a few sports where his kicking talents would be more useful.

MM AW JT NB the list goes on , but the cupboard is still empty.

I can’t criticise Benji for trying though. He should be looking at every possible opportunity.

Maybe just a smokescreen whilst they go after Sualli
