Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Dennisspicer1]

It's called sarcasm champ. I was saying Madden and Brooks and Laurie are crap, and we'd be no worse off replacing them with failures like Croft and French

K, no worry.

 

[Dino]

if we get any major signings they will be for 24 since every decent player free in 23 has already been signed

 

[GarryOwen]

Staines would start and he’d probably be in front of Laurie.

The point is that he (and To'a etc) are no better than depth quality. We need to acquire or develop players better than them so that they are relegated to roles commensurate with their abilities, rather than playing FG every week.

Lay off the plonk mate - Hughes has never played for easts…
And your numbers are barely close

Alright badboy, lay it on me if you know everything, tell me who got what.

Yes I made the mistake, its Smith they have signed.
And not plonk, dont drink. But after this season I Should.

The 1st line.

Ok but he didn’t say it

 

[CornerPost]

Yet another fringe 1st grader..we've got almost an entire team already

Miller is a gun.. just finding his feet in rugby league.. Olympic 7's rugby player.. Sharks have resigned all their outside backs.. he's ripe for the picking

Why should one club have 2 teams in a competition. Would you like the chooks to have 2 teams in the NRL?

No clue.....

To benefit from TWO junior regions at our disposal AND develop the BEST of them!

Fair dinkum - you are so opinionated for someone with zero real connection to the club or either of the two junior regions they represent!!

So we merge every grade until we hit the name balmain. We'll stop there.

One club.

Numbnuts - a Numbat is much smarter that you!!

Yea i'm over these whingers who whine about Wests Magpies being our feeder club and lets get rid of our past and in the next breath call leichhardt our spiritual home ground. Bunch of hypocrites.

Poor diddums.....

Deplorables.....

All organisations are run by the board .They have the right to hire and fire the CEO. The chairman is elected by the board and conducts the meetings .
So I believe to start afresh we need a new board which may or may not include existing members.
The criteria for becoming a board member is that they must not identify themselves as either a Western suburbs member or a Balmain member
If when asked the question which one are you and if they answer NEITHER
I am a wests tigers member then providing they bring something to the table be it Business acumen or football management acumen .Then their in !
A rebuild to be successful must by definition change the formula ..
No more dinosaurs

Lets face it .Its a Joint Venture that doesn't function as a singular entity
Whoever is the ultimate boss of the club ?That is who is it who has the power to hire and fire the CEO ?Who is the ultimate power to hire and fire the coach
The absolute boss must be Lee ? or is it ? Can't be Pascoe as a group of old men in Ashfield could fire him ?
Time to start over with a WESTS TIGERS BOARD and if we need fresh funding sources to achieve that then maybe relocation might bring in the nrl and the benefiting area council to step in to create this

Regarding Kane Bradley, NQ

Bradley, originally with the Wests Tigers, was part of a player swap back in 2021 and could look for a move back to Sydney

Surely the Magpies will welcome him back?
With the lack of options...

Morgan McWhirter would be good for depth signing, only 21/22 from Terrigal New South Wales Coast.​

​

 

[Halbrowne61]

Another in the long line of players who would never get to play NRL if it wasn’t for the Wests Tigers.

Well we are a development club - now we just have to learn how to keep them all !
Maybe start by stop spending money on downward spiral has beens.
Hang on, is that starting to sound like Sheens philosophy.
Maybe he’s onto something !

I can see the clubs PR exercise in the near future over signings like this.The fan boys will swallow it especially if some clown in marketing at the club can come up with a gimmick catch phrase like "Tsunami Sheens"or " Tim and Benji bring back brilliance".

It's been time for them to get busy for many months and our brains trust seem to move with the speed of Ularu

 

[Buttface]

It’s very uplifting and positive around here at the moment.
So sorry for not posting in the uplifting and positive thread.
Go the Tigers!!!

 

[diedpretty]

I think they already alluded to that a while ago, but not sure what that means for Keary ?

Keary will be medically retired and end up with a plum job at the club.

 

[loklok]

Hastings needs to be back in the halves .Madden gone .and Doueihi unfortunately didn't cut it as a 5/8 the few rounds .we need to fix the engine room up first tho

 

[KH1988]

Can you imagine how much he would sook if he was asked to play wing?

Especially after the last time Souths tried it

Promising South Sydney youngster Adam Doueihi admits he's unsure of where his best position lies in the NRL.

But he knows one thing: it's not on the wing.

No more winging it for Souths' Doueihi

He hadn't played at fullback since the under-10s but South Sydney's Adam Doueihi has impressed since being shifted there during the NRL season.
