Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I don't want to settle for mediocre performance what do we have as class players Backs Laurie,Naden, Nofo, Douehi,Hastings and Kenny if he was 100%fit .Toa a maybe and Hastings could be gone for 9 months so we need at least 2 more here
Forwards Papalii, Api, Stefano, maybe Pole so we are well short here
I know we should be progressing some from lower grades but I'm suspicious of our NSW cup squad as their defence is diabolical and aren't our Ball Flegg guys too young?
The way I see it is some of our forwards like Blore and Musgrove might go great next year with other stronger pack with them but whichever way I look at it we must recruit 2 top tier backs and 2 top tier forwards as our squad needs to be about 25 good players not 17

Young wrong in part. The squad needs about 15 great players the other 15 can aspire to be great.

Who cares if injuries derail your season. The key is to have enough quality in the game day 13 that will offset the loss.

What’s the point of having Steph, Tamou, Musgrove, all on near enough the same mid level range when all you are getting is mid level performances?

Is it really necessary to have two guys waiting in the wings that can produce the same output for value?

I might be going a bit unfair on Steph here and there is certainly upside but I hope you see the point I’m making.
All three don’t replace 1 Payne in the Hass.
 
His disclaimer will be, at the time of saying that we were talking to big Jimmy Tamou about next season & Zane Musgrove was under contract. Hopefully Tom Mikaele gets in es Zane's ear and tells him he will be a god in Super League and a UK Club takes on his contract. That's 2 middle spots right there and who knows if Joffa will take his MO, which could bring it to 3.
There’s no point getting rid of musgrove or any other forward unless we can get better , lodge and klemmer would do us for the next 3 years , we need mongrels and they fit that bill

Give me 15 minutes in Campbelltown mall, I’ll pick out 5 better performers than him. And I mean it. I would like Latrells brother over him, and he’s overweigh, don’t know Zane’s problem. Hes absolutely hopeless. Madge fav.

You might be right about the mix between great players and potentially great but some of our forwards are not even potential .I just wish we could land a few more top signings and not other clubs rejects
 
Yeah, fair call. Not sure if it's Matt Lodge though. Would love JWH for the last two years of his career. Don't like him as a bloke but he's a forward leader for sure. No chance of getting him though.

Warea Hargraves would show them how it's done....
He's massive!!

Highly unlikely but Just seen some Brent Read quote, “Stephen Crichton would love to be a fullback” then said something about the bulldogs would be an option so my brain switched off as soon as I read bulldogs, but might as well bring some chat to the forum it’s been pretty quiet….would you mob throw coin at him to get him over to the tigers ?
