Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Stevec said:
I feel sorry for all the fans on this forum particularly in this signings suggestions and rumours thread . We've been working our butts off scavaging through all the left overs and club rejects trying to improve our roster .We even fantasise about some high level recruits . However in the real world don't see a lot going on .
If Tim thinks the exciting stuff in the pipeline is our internal junior development then I don't want to wait till 2025 where I'm sure we will unearth a few greats but I'm getting old and impatient.

Stevec,
I hear you, Im now 76 years old, My father started putting me in a Tiger uniform when I was about 3 or 4 and would take me to watch our team where ever the team was playing, I can still remember sitting next to him at Birchgrove oval on the old wooden bench seat that went right around the ground.

My first
G/F WAS IN 1969 WHEN I WAS 23YRS OLD, Then I patiently waited for 36yrs and up popped my teams second G/F. 2005,
So I estimate we have about 19 years to go for the next one.

BUT IVE GOT MY FINGERS CROSSED,
IT MAY BE SOONER.

AND LIKE YOU GETTING VERY IMPATIENT,
I START THINKING IM GOING TO DIE BEFORE IT HAPPENS.

Or Luke Keary’s medical retirement is rubber stamped.

Thought about that but I think Manu wiil go to 5/8th and Sualli to centre when Keary is done. They have a wealth of backs.
If they did get him would love to see the ridiculous value they submit - because we all know that players are to happy to play for less at the Roosters.
 
Example and opinion.

id like to know , using F Pole as example.

He is considered our #1 best rookie at the moments playing firsts.
now
Has he always held the tag for the last few years as # 1 rookie
or
did he land the #1 because other teams took our best 1st 2nd & 3rd ?

Hope it makes sense.

I love the kid.
 
Rooster's will get Munster and register contract for 450,000, great to see salary cap is working, all marquee players at the roosters and left overs for 15/16 clubs

I'm 74 never knew my grandfather but he went to tigers first game 1908 at birchgrove oval and my father in 50's and 60 's would take me to Leichardt and Redfern and Bemore and SCG and east's ground Sydney sports ground most saturdays wherever tigers playing. Loved 1969 but had the heartbreak of 1988 and 1989 but loved 2005

Great yarn mate. I loved reading that.
 
Are we one of the four clubs chasing Munster that Braithe eluded to tonight on NRL360.
Munster wants more than what the Storm are offering.

Yes , to many head knocks, for sure.

No amount of cash, fortune or fame is worth what he may be facing in years ahead.

How he’s managed to go the extra 3 or 4 years since his massive concussion is startling.

He says it’s up to the doctors, but I’m not sure they have explained to him what’s at stake.

He hasn’t been the same player, only the roosters seem to have missed that.

The nrl should refuse to re-register him for his own health.

Some of our heroes, they don’t look after themselves very well. They go too far.

Our beloved sport is beyond brutal and the human body simply isn’t designed for it.

I worry about him.
