Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Probably forced to give it to Seyfarth or another match winner....

Oh OK, Hastings had Kikau, Latrell and JAC running off him did he? I must have been in a coma those weeks...

Hastings isn't a 7...

Except when he displaced Brooks from the 7 and played 7 and did an outstanding job playing 7.

#Extend Brooks

😂

Outstanding?
You for real?

He was better - You reckon any top 8 teams are lining up for his signature after what we saw this year.... Doubtful.

No - But you missed the point, Again.
Hastings nor Doueihi nor Madden did any better with the current side.
I don't expect much more from them next year without significant squad improvement.

Odds they link WT to him once Nov 1 hits?

To be fair, I know he is mentioned as playing lazy and not getting involved but for us a back rower that makes tackles and avg but on his day is the biggest strike weapon in the comp is probably the best signing we could ever make.
Even if his salary was closer to the 1 mil mark then 500k.

Sometimes I wonder; why the f.., would he even talk to Mansour. I just don’t understand that logic, if it’s true of course.
And Woods as well.
I actually thought we might have been going forward but everything seems to be turning negative again.
I also mentioned that Kenny may be going, anyone know the facts around that little story.

Due to their age our football staff see him a a spritely youngster

Fox sport saying Tigers taking Andrew Fiffita fot 1 yr . The guys been on 1 leg for 2 yrs lol
This would be as bad as the Storm 2nd rower who arrives with more bandages then a mummy!

Hope this is wrong, or Tigers fans will leave in droves.

You do realise that statistically Fifita out performed all of our props this season?

Outstanding....
Compared to the last few seasons with Brooks.

Expectations are low at the Tigers.

Surely Sheens would prefer Matt Groat

Exaggeration is on point it seems though....
He was a 5/6 out of 10, And that's being gratious...
About the same as the other Halves - Madden was maybe a 4.

Aim higher.

Welsby, fullback or 5/8 he's a champion

they are not 7's

He's had years of proving that if it's all on him - It just won't happen.
He's not the player he was considered to be (Losing his origin spot confirms that)

We would be banking on him, And he's not the guy you can bank on...
He'll need to go to the Roosters or a team that can do it without him.
We're not that team - Any money spent on him would be wasted.

Yeah, we should take @Jedi_Tiger advice and sign Kyle Flanagan.

lol I don't like Flannagan but heavily subsidised by Dogs, just looking at 7's as I don't think Sheens will play hasting there even if we move Brooks on

 

[loklok]

Woods and fifita are on their last legs .deadset waste of money

Interesting comment from Pom;.

"If Brooks leave I see Hastings going to 7, but Sheens thinks he's an outright 13."

Unless a signing is made there may be no other choice.

I agree if we don’t sign a 7 Hastings will go play 7 if we do release Brooks early we will literally have no other choice.

Choice is Sheens doesnt let brooks go in 2023
so it would be 2024 onwards sign a new 7

doubts Sheens will let Brooks go for 2023 if he can't get a 7 to replace him especially if he doesn't see Hastings as the option

 

[Halbrowne61]

if Hastings goes in 2024 and he is not seen as a 7 but a 13, Sheens is probably thinking we can get a good 13 in the market

MM perhaps ?

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

the hold up from Hastings may well be he doesn't want to play 13 end of story
