Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Joffa will have his best season yet many hands make light lifting he will have help in John Klem Ice and Stefano back Joffa will be on fire 🔥

Definitely.
He made top 5 for a couple of stats comp wide in a pack that was run over every week.
In a pack that is moving forward, he will regain his origin jumper.

Some Muppet wrote in their first post that we should try offload Joffa. Stupidity at it's finest.
Joffa is a limited player. He's probably a better player for us these days. But he's solid and reliable, and room our player of the year last season. How much the likes of Twal and Joffa play depends on how quickly our youngsters adapt

They compaired joffa achievements with Seyfarth. Not a bad comparison given both players have done nothing despite joffa internet popularity.

Beats talking about Kyle Flanagan

I see according to Pom apparently Parra have made their final offer to MM... Ours is better... Time will tell

 

[Telltails]

Would have to agree, why would we even consider moving on Joe?,does not make any sense at all.
We need all the experience we can get at the moment, a solid player week in week out, on and off the field by all accounts.
We need to build a competitive team not make it weaker.
It just blows my mind that people would be considering this at all.

I don't think it is being considered by anyone who actually makes decisions.
Started on here and should finish on here.

Would be classic Wests Tigers to let two of our best players go in the same season in Joffa & Hastings hahaha

 

[Spartan117]

Rest assured that Joffa is well and truly locked in here.

 

[Demps]

Joffa AND Seyf should not be released.

 

[SeanT]

Joffa AND Seyf should not be released.

Why does anyone have to be released..

 

[Demps]

Why does anyone have to be released..

The only reason would be to free up a roster position.

It's a weird discussion.

Maybe it's just to help get the Moses deal done earlier.

If we sign Moses.... instantly our reputation and perception around the league changes

Easily biggest signing in Wests Tigers history, if Sheens and Benji can get it done it gives you a large indication of the respect they both have around the league

 

[bomberbrown]

m in my opinion.

Joffa will have his best season ever this year. He wont have to tackle his ass off and then try to carry the team up the field.
I like twal alot but i rate Joffa over Twal

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

Why does anyone have to be released..

if Moses ain't here until 2024 then no need to try abd release anyone. However if we have a chance at signing him 2023 surely that would be the delay in announcing

Agree. If we miss him, nothing has changed, especially if he goes to the dogs.

think dogs are out of it

Furner was defensive coach when the bunnies won in 2014.

Ha ha Batboy is going to come after you.

he will have a good year, a solid player but he won't get anywhere near being in our top 3 forwards though for 2023
He is not better than klemmer, Papali or Bateman
Twal defends very well every team needs a Alex Twal

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

so we can gain a good half and release a forward who we have THREE quality forwards coming in Klemmer, Papali and Bateman.
Yes we can do without Joffa if it meant Moses in 2023 as an example

For a 12mth gain but overall 2yr loss from that good forward which would provide us 4 good forwards for the 2yrs that the said half was here isn’t smart business - especially one who is inform and injury free.

We want a top line squad and the bigger clubs don’t trade quality players for a reason - they build the best squad possible.

We would be better off offering AD IF he isn’t viewed in our long term plans.

Need to remember the said player needs to agree and Joe committed to us for 3yrs knowing about Sheens/Benji transition.

Can Agree to disagree, my view is this would be a dumb trade.

 

[diedpretty]

this is a pretty nothing argument considering madge was the head coach at the time & took us no where haha

That wasn't the point though was it. Batboy kept hammering on about Furner having no experience as a defensive coach and Tigerballs put him straight.

 

[Stevec]

Took an off season break .So now I feel we have a competitive pack and a few half decent backs .Would love a class center .Interested to see if our famous no 7 will click in 2023 after 10 years of trying ?
The good thing about signing a few stars is that it shifts our image up and one or two more then we have critical mass to attract more
Only thing re MM is if we sign for 2024 then maybe he gets mid season release like we gave Luciano however I remain dubious
