Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Most of our pack who got thrashed by roosters and raiders to humiliate us so bad are no longer there .2 who are still there are Joffa and Seyfarth and I can maybe forgive joffa who had a number of good games but not Seyfarth
Check the tapes our pack and centers were cringeworthy

No way we get rolled over this year

Last year we had Tamou and twal holding the fort… that’s laughable

This year Klemmer and Offa wil likely be our starting props not to mention Pole and Stefano in the mix aswell and Bateman, Paps on the edges

That’s a powerful pack
 
Unsuccessful teams will always be fighting an uphill battle to attract talent.

You are right but we've signed exceptionally well this year. We've done it off the back of a better cap position than what we've had in the past. We've been able to pay enough to get top quality talent and other teams have said we can't compete.
 
I reckon he’ll stay with the eels. Just a guess
I agree. For some reason I can’t see him returning. Not many people in general want to return to an employer which has previously been a bad experience. Did
Munster ever mention WT? Or why he gave us a knock back?
 
He was released by Tigers in 2017, which can only mean it was the club that gave the ultimatum to the player.

You are far too sensitive to the outwards appearance of negotiations. You have no idea what actually is going on. Therefore don't trouble yourself about it so much.

And yes, driving up the Eels price is a terrific outcome and well worthwhile.
Using the passive signing style
Latrell = failure
Addo-carr = failure
Moses = failure

Yep all going well with this style. Maybe we should just negotiate straight with the other team and cut out the middle man?!?!

And with other options like Klemmer .....Papalii and Bateman the defence can't load up on Twal and Joffa and shorten their line in D ...hopefully leading to players getting to ground faster and quicker play the balls

Forget post contact metres in the modern game ...faster play the balls are the key ...we won't get to 2005 levels of course ...but by now you will know which club has the fastest play the balls
I'm guessing you mean Penrith. I have noticed in a lot of their games they don't fight to stay up in the tackle - if they can they drop straight away so they can get a quick play the ball. What annoys me is these are the same tactics we used in 2005 and suddenly it was called surrendering in the tackle and the defence was allowed to keep you down. Apparently nowadays only certain teams get pinged for dropping in the tackle.
 
So no Moses. Great job Tigers, you let go of Hastings and kept Brooks to get this guy.

That’s not what happened.

Hastings was never viewed by Sheens/Benji has halfback. It was lock or nothing.

Brooks hasn’t been extended and Sheens has said multiple times talk’s won’t start until Jan (after Moses discussion).

Bateman and Hastings were never going to be in the same team also. They don’t get on.
