Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[426Tlgerland]

Happy Friday it’s 2.30 pm and beer time XXXX. Golds out the tin for me , and I’ll just keep praying we are trying to sign about 3 solid players on top of Api and Papi , Dinner. Fish and chips from our local seafood outlet on Bribie Island ( Savage Seafood )if your ever on the island

Reading so many posts that don't seem to have anything to do with
"Signings Suggestions and Rumours "
Is this because we have no signings
Also doesn't even seem to be any rumours
And everyone is tired of making suggestions

I'm not sure. Burton has a lot of good attributes, but I have never seen him throw a great ball to put his outside man away, either short it long. I'm not sure he has that ball playing creativity of top line 5/8's.

Alot of coin for someone that is very questionable if he is an actual game winner

I’m yet to see him create consistently for his team or take the game & lead for the win.

Has a great bomb and can run good lines.

Don’t get me wrong would take him in an instant but 800k per season is alot for someone yet to really deliver that match winning ability.

These are the players that I think may be possibilities and why:

Klemmer: Knights look to be moving him on, due to his $$$ at a guess. Still has a few years left in him, I think. Would even take a low $$ Woods back, if that's what it took. One starter and one bench/back-up FRF.
Frizzel: Talk of him swapping for Brooks. Not sure where that came from, but if this was fantasy draft I would do that trade. Getting older, but would do the job for a year or two.
Best: When he's not injured, which is a lot of the time unfortunately, he is a beast. May have the shits from getting dropped to reserves while the Koala gets off scot free. Why not enquire with his manager?
Fafita: Titans have too many $$$ tied up in the forwards. We have space. He is easily in the top 5 of 2RF. Would they release him if we offered to pay his full freight?
Thompson: Would need to be heavily subsidised. 50/50 Tigers/Dogs for his contract, they free up some coin, which they need and we get him at slight unders. He is not worth his current contract, but this may work for both teams?
Tapine: More wishful thinking than anything, but if we signed up for when he was available, maybe an early release could be negotiated? Again, very unlikely, but we can only dream.
Nania: Only signed for 1 year, so free to talk again in November. Is already a star.
Dylan Brown: You would think that he grew up idolising Benji? Maybe a move across to be mentored by your hero would hold appeal? Is a great player. Not sure what $$$ his next contract would be, but surely Parra need their cap to add new forwards and may have to make some hard decisions?

 

[stryker 69]

It’s a very pleasant experience discussing Saigon as well.

@stryker 69 in the corner of a smokey bar, waiting for Miss Ho Chi Minh to arrive.

His job is to seduce her and gather intelligence on Chinese weapons purportedly being shipped to the Solomons.

A male Honey trap.

Our way of life depends on his best pick up line.

He’s rejected the training for his own model, he’s going to casually sidle up to her and ask

“ Hi, I’m Stryker, you look like you need to buy me a drink.”

Stricken by his audacity, she buys him a bourbon and Coke.

Good story bar the last sentence. I’m a rum man.

Good summary something constructive

Nanai number 1 priority
If we miss out even swap brooks for Fifita

 

[tiger_scott]

You would that they'd rather be free of Fifita's large contract without wanting to pick up another dud one though? GCT have Foran coming and already have AJ and Boyd, so already a bit of their cap going towards their halves. They should be going better than they are, really.

Out of that lot Frizzlesticks sounds good, ultimate professional.
Nanagai hard to get him out of NQ because of his family.
Tapine is locked up and I can't see Ricky letting him go but would be awesome.
If your talking about seeking early releases I would throw money at Warriors Josh Curran. He is an absolute workhorse and would be perfect along side Papa.

Beggers can't be choosers.

 

[Don Kershane]

We need a footballing version of Scomo- one person to cover 5 positions and not tell anyone and get extra spots on the roster and if we get caught apologise later.

 

[batboy]

Beggers can't be choosers.

Just re-signed 3 mid level OB's....
Surely they'll do....

So for 2023 not much left just a few scraps maybe some of the stars of Koe cup ie the top teams have some stars .I'm just foraging around trying to improve 2023 roster .Hopefully a couple of our flegg stars can make the big jump

Luke Keary is on
1million 300000, if he is on that, you work out the rest of them Manu is at the moment on 800 they admitted Keary $1-3 because they are about to let him go, so what is teddy worth $1-6, Warea $850000 there is $4-6 and I have only mentioned
4 players. How much do you reckon, I think just the top 17 players would be worth very close to $14ml if not more, and they have smith and poss munster to the list, but they are not worried about salary cap. ????????????????????????

If this is true the roosters should be stripped of all their points but that would need the nrl to be independent and not cohorts with the rorters
