Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[pawsandclaws1]

Speaking of Furner, watched his video the other day and he comes across as really calm. I think that will do wonders for us. He will leave the emotions out of his delivery

Agreed. I think he is one of our best buys. I agree he is a calming influence.

He made a statement / Offered an opinion -
I asked a question (and validation) regarding statement / opinion

He avoided question all together, Instead answering with some other riddle...
Like usual... Wasn't a pissing contest at all.

I have nothing against your football opinions, but you sometimes seem like you just want to stick the boot in. JMHO.

There has been some talk that if MM does come .. Para want 2 outside backs .. we’d be mad to offer our young talent .. but I’m not sure Para would except players like Nofa, Kenny or AD .. ?? What are everyone’s thoughts .. ??

Isn’t he off contract next year, why would we have to give them anything? Unless we are pushing for the 23 season ?

I think that is if we want MM for 2023. Kepoa & Toa maybe? but agree give them nothing for 2024

That’s what they were talking about to try and get him for 23. But Parra won’t let him go early if he does sign with us. Just concentrate on getting him for 24. We aren’t making the 8 unfortunately even with the improvements.

if it meant getting Moses in 2023 then pack the bags and get the uber and drive AD and Nofa straight to Combank stadium.
Best Deal Ever, 2 blokes who can't tackle

I know it's just a forum but people in today's age in general can not listen to someone else's opinion its very bad that people can not debate anymore or have a different opinion and they get offended so easy I tried talking to someone in the last few weeks about something important and they could not even listen to the other side of the story and I was not even the one talking about the other side of the story

By the same token though if you always think you are right and enter into a debate because you don't agree with what some one else has written - well expect that you are going to create an argument and own it.

I put Gildart down to two things Tigers being desperate and rolling the dice and Madge being desperate and rolling the dice it's over now and it was worth the risk and I think his second year at the dolphins will be superior then his time at the Tiger's second off season and.now knowing what he needs to do to be a NRL centre will do wonders for him and I think he mite play wing under Bennett until he gets the hang of things

Let's be honest nrl has become which player manager you back. We were taking ayoub terds before now we are with someone else predominantly.

Any truth to us chasing Welsby?

Toa and Reilly imo or
Give them nothing

Not an expert but think this has been driven by the forum

If you guaranteed me another premiership in the next 2-3 years, but the cost would be the premiership is followed by another 10 seasons of no finals, I would take that offer in a heartbeat.

I wouldn't.

The 2005 Premiership was great for our club. We got Benji who made our games super entertaining, Hodgson, Prince, along with a stack of hard working forwards. We kinda got lucky, as we had a squad to build off and with Character.

No guarantees a solo run to the Finals would have that effect. You would get a flood of fans and then put them through 17 years of Hell ....

oh wait!?

Can we sell our tackling and defensive issues to Parra?

it sounds so good it must be true

That said, Nofa has issues and AD can go harder. Yet I think our team is soft and needs to harden up. Many have said "why don't the tigers have a wrestling coach?"

 

[Cobarcats]

I would, 1 in 10 sounds good considering there's 17 teams.
The only thing I would want to see between spells is no pathetic performances where we throw the towel in.

Technically 2005 and 2011 were failures

Good clubs can follow up on success

2005 was followed up by many years of failure

2010-2011 were followed up by many more failures

We have no-one to blame but ourselves

bro why are you crying so hard

 

[Bucko73]

According to POM, it's 1.25 for Moses. Still a bit overs IMO but not tooooo far, particularly with the new cap.

Will be the norm for this level of player I assume from now on

Let's run this back......😂

Back in the days before I was jaded and weathered.

 

[Buttface]

Isnt the mole mates with Sheens?
Perhaps there’s some truth to it.

Or perhaps it’s simply speculation. Who really knows?
I’ll believe it when Moses starts following the Wests Tigers social media pages and Parra stop following Moses Socials. That seems to be how things are announced these days

Yeah, I don’t FaceTweet or InstaTok so I wait till the club announce it.

From The Australian paper, Rothfields comments below.


SHOOSH

● The relationship between one NRL chairman and his chief executive is at breaking point. Only one will survive the season.

● Huge pressure on the once invincible 2GB Continuous Call team in the ratings, with the ABC closing in on Saturdays and Triple M on Sundays. Trying to be funny doesn’t always work. Sometimes it can get stale. Listeners these days want to be informed. They want strong opinions and analysis.

● Drama at the Wests Tigers between Tim Sheens, Benji and Robbie.

● Everyone is talking about Anthony Griffin, Adam O’Brien and Justin Holbrook being under the pump. You can throw Kevvie Walters into that group as well. He needs to make the finals.

● Which huuuge-name NRL player will be offered an early release from his contract?

God I hate this stain's journalism. It is so sensationalist and full of bad vibes. Doesn't care who he hurts just wants to create rumours and drama.

 

[Goldust]

Not worried about Depth, Sheens has a good eye for talent. He will blood someone else in that position.
Not losing any sleep over it personally

Hope your right ✌️
Must have someone in mind if he was willing to ship off our only other halves.
