Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Demps]

7 Hastings.

If he plays at 13 he plays 80 minutes and we don't utilize a bench of 4 forwards anyway. They won't get enough minutes on the park.

I hope we get better than Bateman as well.

I can also see that happening....

Brooks departs.
Jackson & Adam in the halves.

I don’t see people complaining they have left it’s the lack of who is replacing them that people are complaining about.

We also lost Garner, Kelma, Lucy on top of that so of the 7 forwards that have left we have just Papa inbound.

I have zero issues running with youth provided we have some quality experience around them which atm we need another 2-3 forward quality leaders to round us out for next year IMO.

I get that, but people complained we played everything out in the media, and when we don't, they complain they don't know what's going on. I suggest people wait until November 1 when things will happen quickly

 

[batboy]

Full pack make over for 2023.
Definitely need to make some more signings.

Too reliant on youth.

8 Klemmer
9 Api
10 Twal
11 Papallii
12 Bateman or similar
13 Hastings

14 Stefano
15 Blore
16 Offa
17 Pole

No utilities on the Bench - Need someone who can at least cover centre.

There's not enough spots left for Quality and Experience is the main problem I see...
Each new spot opens up, We announce a Tumeth to top 30 or something like that.

We've lost 500 odd games experience out of our pack

 

[Demps]

Albert Kelly the backup half

Not the worst back up.
Probably just as good as Brooksy but better footy IQ

Some one might eventually make way for Talau


Sheensy always liked a winger on the bench.

See what direction he takes in '23

I've said before I like the Ray Stone, Brandon smith, Elijah Taylor type utility.

A backrower, lock that can cover hooker too.

Rua is ideal but I'm sure he's a work in progress.

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

Woods is coming back. Won't be announced for awhile tho.

Unless I'm missing the joke, Wood exercised his option to remain at the Dragons next year.

This may be a joke that's gone over my head but Wood exercised his option to remain at the Dragons next year.

Will be a tiger come season kickoff. (Not a pisstake)

Yeah, as long as the cavalry arrives, I’m happy that it’s not leaking out. Although Klemmer seems to have leaked.

Given our record of players falling off the cliff when they get here, would we make the top 8 with that side?

If they went into the Melb system it’s likely minor premiers every year.

You're about the 15th person to write that here....
If you can find an official announcement, Can you post it here...

What is fact - Is that he had an option that "Could" be triggered if he played a certain amount of games... And he did that.

I've not seen anything beyond that information to say he has taken up his option....

Thinking he's on minimum wage - So would be looking to see if something else that comes up.

 

[Bula]

We need to aim higher than Burgess. Hopefully we have some news shortly on signings.

Baby John is looking for a gig.
