Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

If you haven’t noticed all of our marquee signings played at their best 3-4 years before we pick them up. It’s our type.

It is so true!
We are always the signing former marquees either after they have peaked or are just about to.
And on the other end of the scale we sign up players that haven’t completely developed and are not nrl ready.
It really has nothing to do with the players personally but more the value they provide.
Klemmer was a great buy the year he left for Newcastle. Newcastle got his best years.
Tamou the same at Penrith.
BJ at Canberra
Unfortunately I feel Penrith got the best years out of Api because he has come across on big Marquee money where as Ivan got him at a bargin basement price of 450k.
Papali’i is the exception. Though has come down a little after coming off a break out year last year and that trend could continue without the fierce competition for backrow spots in our club and our overall culture.
We need to find the Klemmer before this current Klemmer. In my opinion we’d be better off splitting up the Safiti boys and giving some serious cash to Daniel.
Leinu could be a great get to add some punch to the bench.
Hopefully our own Steffano keeps improving a becomes the Klemmer that first made origin.

Leniu would be my pick out of anyone realistic to join our pack. Frizell also.

He was worse than horrible.
You wouldn't feed him.
He is a fraud.
If Tigers sign him it will be a worse outcome than Ryan O'hara.

Never thought that much of Brown and pretty sure he was the gutless guy mouthing off whilst pretending to be held back against Canberra back in the NYC 20's days.

Sure, he can wind up and run, though one on one tough guy wise is a different story, which even a young Blore showed us and the rest of the footy world.

Pass.
 
If Penrith are resigning To’a Critchton and Martin it means there has to be collateral somewhere and it may just be Leinu and Stains.
Tuava and Ilongi cover the backs to replace Stains and Smith, Geyer and Blacker cover the middle. They don’t really have a backrow prospect, the Puru bros are a bit light on and Geyer has been converted to a prop. Makes sense to keep Martin. Crichton and To’a on the other hand have replacements. Though you won’t find too many other athletes like Critchton and To’a is an extremely important winger as well.

I’m a bit worried Frizzell fits the agenda we are highlighting

I see your point. One year impacted by injuries , was still in the origin frame and I know that he is a good character of a bloke. I’d support his signature.

Forgot about Jordan Riki’s brother and young Hosking coming down from Brisbane.
Scratch that 1-13 is pretty much strong and covered with a strong junior.

Think the latest article said Martin looking most likely but chrichton and toa still got a lot of work to do.
 
No apology from yappi API yet, was really looking forward to him playing for us next year, now I am really pissed of at the way the little bugga insulted our team, our club
& our supporters. he is coming to our Club with same illness all Penrith players suffer from.

SWELLED HEADS.

AND I WOULD BE HAPPY IF WE CANCELLED HIS BLOODY CONTRACT.

IF IT WAS POSSIBLE.
What a great way of saying sad to leave panthers, but looking forward to my few years with the West Tigers.

IS THE RIGHT WORD BRINGING OUR CLUB INTO DISREPUTE.

AND THIS IN ITSELF, LEGALLY WOULD PROBABLY GIVE US GROUNDS TO RIP UP HIS CONTRACT,
AND TELL HIM TO GO ELSWERE.

To be brought into disrepute I believe you have to have repute. Could be wrong 😑

We came last and want to let best player go who we have signed for probably 10yrs plus before he plays a game after we let Liddle go. That’s smart business.

Talk about a massive over reaction.
