Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Look Agreed.

Woods as an outside top 30 player Or extra bench prop which we lack is a good signing. Not talking big money.

That said, and others will hate me for saying this....
Andrew Fifita is a better signing IMHO for this.

Fifita is not good enough to start for Cronulla, but that's Cronulla. He has witnessed how that side has built from a nothing side that got run over to how Gallen, Lewis and others trained them up. Yes Woods was there but he came later.

Not saying break the bank... But a loose change "trial and train" would add depth to the front pack. Even if they were signed outside the 30. (which would suit woods).

We need to upgrade our pack massively. 2022 was us getting run over most games.

I watched a lot of Woods this year, and though not the player he was, he was valuable;= Klemmer has a rest , Woods comes on. Solid defender in the middle against big boppers. Can offload which is rare as pubic hair today at the Tigers. For the right price, and short contract, could be a good move. As for comments about the big 3 that left us,-- I don't care if they stole flowers off an old lady, if it helps us get off the bottom.

Surely this is a joke post?

Teddy would not leave roosters for tigers, I just can't see it. He's also the best fullback at the roosters and their captain and probably still the best player in the game. Roosters don't treat their players like that. Players like teddy don't leave the roosters.

Agree 100%- I can’t see him leaving the roosters either.
 
People are against the signing of Woods, but what if we were to be swapping Seyfarth for Woods. Would that be acceptable? One team gets a hungry youngster with a good ethic and we get an experienced pro on minimum wage.

Given Seyfarth doesn't add anything to our prop rotation, and he's no back rower either swapping out our worst props would be a move I'd be comfortable taking. And I no think Seyfarth would get some interest as a cheap squaddie with a good attitude, clubs need those types but we have others filming those spots currently.

You mean like how Pearce was still at the top of his game and got booted to Newcastle

Definitely Roosters will drop you the minute they can get someone 1% better. You'll still be looked after, but they have no qualms dating a girl slightly hotter than the wife.

Like you say - Pearce dispensable once Cronk became available, Keary is being manoeuvred out. Anasta, Jayden Nikorima, Hastings Mk I, Latrell, Michael Jennings, Daniel Mortimer etc. They retired Cordner and Friend once they got slightly too old / concussed. FPN / O'Meley, Willie Mason moved on in the space of a few years.

The most impressive thing is how quick they make those calls

Good thing ...something we should learn from
