Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Bennett was all in for the Tigers, no conditions but if he had signed then and there he would have foregone a massive payout from Brisbane. He had to hang onto the Brisbane Contract and in the interim we signed Maguire -

Edit - Better summary above

In hindsight madge was the wrongggggggg choice.

Sheen's needs to call Jaydn S'ua agent straight away if he is wanting out of Dragons..
This guy would just kill it with us and today without really noticing he runs 222m and tears us apart. Sheen's talks about another starting 2nd rower and he fits the bill..

 

[hank37w]

Would probably be our best centre as well.

Didn't Sheens want a second rower that could play centre?

Funny that we are just losing one of those and he will probably kill it at the 'Riff.

Maybe that's the second row Pom was referring to

 

[Fish88]

Agree.

Very ineffective.

I didn’t think he was great today either but he was our only forward that ran for over 100m. Pretty much the case every week.

its not

Is Melbourne paying sufficient money to WT in order to keep keep Nofa for the following years?

Bellamy wont want him ..unable to keep up with Olam when he makes a break,prone to handling and defensive errors..worth nothing close to the 500k were paying him

 

[tony soprano]

its not

Martin?

 

[earl]

.how was Jake today?

Liddle or Simpkin. They both don't look up to it.

Liddle or Simpkin. They both don't look up to it.

I think there is potentially a very handy player in Simpkin. Hope he sees APIs arrival as a learning opportunity.

Another too early to write off.

Another Pascoe Fiasco

I feel Naden needs to be in the Centres. he look a class above the other today but didnt see enough ball. Has started running backwards which is a worry but his attack and defence is too good for the wing

Naden has been best on field for us in a few games.

Great signing. I am glad to see a player who has come from struggle street do well in Tigers colours.

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

its not

Probably should be though.

I’d be looking at trying to take both Su’a and Suli off the Dragons both on about 500k at least and will give them space to resign Hunt and their juniors.
Matt Feangi has his brother max also who plays centre. They’ve covered Suli’s loss pretty well. Bring him home this is where it all started for him.
And grab Paseka off Manly while your at it.

We are in a very crossroad moment…. Buy strategic with players that fit what the club is looking for ( would love to know what that is as we cannot even identify our own DNA) or buy anything that wants to come here 🙂

We need a complete overall and that is also for the reserve grade side.

Mariner and Doorey would work at bargain rates and improve competition for back row spots.
I like Nathan Brown for experience and at the right price same as Fifita brothers ( David as been on pittance in Super League but would go okay in NSW Cup).
Always liked Conor Tracey but not sure if he resigned with the sharks but love how he plays.
100% agree on trying to get Martin or Dylan Brown as key recruits.
Would also look for the following:

Jaydn SuA
Chris Lewis (age is the key at 30 but 2 year contract would work)
David Hollis (Prop @ Parra)
Kurt Falls (Penrith HB - if Madden goes to Penrith this kid will need an opportunity and is much better than Madden)
Spencer Leniu - always rated this bloke
Morgan Smithies - Wigan back rower who is a real goer
Joe Batchelor another good English back rower would do really well in the NRL.

All of the above would not cost the earth but start to establish the DNA required and grow with the young kids the club has identified.

Joffa surprisingly very ordinary today cold drops and effort seemed down .
Is he one who maybe wants out ?
On the other hand Douehi was close to best on field whereas last week very poor

Story of the tigers - inconsistency!

 

[Tigerbenb]

Sua we are no hope. If he leaves st geo - dolphins with uncle Wayne.

Preston Riki - panthers . Get after it.
