I would. Good off the bench, add some experienceIf we get Bateman and Klemmer are we still going for Nathan Brown?
He's played 1 state cup game. The hype train on some players round 'ere is hilarious.
Pump the brakes.
Scolari is on a train and trial until Christmas at least. Jimmy is still at the world cup. Valevatu meh, the last three names should all be on train and trials over the off season, along with Tofaeno.Finally had a chance to look over our squad list released yesterday including train & trialists.
I compared to our squads down to Harold Matts last season and am very happy with our training list but these are the names I would have liked to have seen as well:
Liam Scolari
Jack Boyling (was highly regarded this season by some within the club)
Jimmy Ngutlik
Mikey Tannous
Henry O’Kane
James Valevatu (Jersey Flegg player of year)
Dudley Dotoi (electric outside back from SG Ball, from NQ)
Cathane Hill (Tigers fullback in SG Ball from NQ)
Chris Faagutu
Possibly Ngutlik, Tannous & O'Kane not included due to being on WC duty and giving Faagutu time to adjust through junior reps with us. And 19yos from Jersey Flegg this season likely retained in JF squad still to be announced.
Hoping @THE_POM or @CCTW can do some digging on the above!
I'm in complete agreeance.You saw our state cup wingers last year right?
He may never come on - But from what I've seen, he's worth a punt on...
Has a lot of attributes we just don't have - In any grade atm.
Could be anything, Could also be nothing....
Like the 20 or more nothings we've had as backup for the last 10 years.
Ogden had wraps, looked legitimate.You just never know.
Could be another PNG gem like Olam… or there could be reasons why he played this year in Ron Massey Cup that aren’t as evident based on two World Cup games.
I agree he shows some great physical attributes and athletic potential… but this forum also lost its collective mind this past pre-season when it thought Israel Ogden of all people had been released.
I’m sure the club already knows what he’s about more than we do.
That’s what I’m saying.Ogden had wraps, looked legitimate.
Watched him closely this year.
... no good.
Laurie needs to play through the middle a lot more, he seems to me to be a guy that doesn't start the season in peak fitness and builds throughout the year. We need him starting the season in peak fitness and playing through the middle.
I have him so far in front of AD as fullback .
It's a fair point. I just think there is still a lack of strike and depth across the squad in general but particularly on the edges. Papalii and Bateman are a great start of you look at them for replacements for garner and Leilua.I don't think Fifita fits what Sheens is building.
Look at the players (reportedly) coming in- Klemmer, Bateman, Brown, Api & Papali'i.
All these guys are known for their effort on field.
Fifita is known for his remarkable athletic traits. Tigers desperately need a mental upgrade. There's already an abundance of physically talented youngsters coming through. The team needs some fight.
Even that pole is still learning, he was better than all our forwards in the games he played excluding offaLike i said, going by your list of players we are short 3 big body props, we don't have Klemmer, Pole is still learning, Stefs form last year was going backwards, and the backups mmmmmmm
He's was below NSW Cup level last season, so I hope not.Unless we r throwing Zane Camero to the wolves and have him as the backup 7
At this stage he has to keep it quiet. Don’t forget Staines said he would be at Panthers next year only to then be announced coming to us. I reckon the deal is done but nothing will be announced until after the WC.By the sounds of it the Batemen signing is a long way off.
Wigan confirmed no formal approach yet and Bateman said he will wait until till after the WC.
Shame as was starting to get a little excited
Maybe the Klemmer deal can be done
