Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

We've had positive player interviews for years now. They give lines like 'Fittest we have been', 'I have worked on my defence' ' I will take control of the team' ,'lead by example'. Bla bla bla. As you said talk is cheap. Stop talking about things and go out and do what your paid good money to do

That is all they can do now, listening to Sheens makes me feel a lot more positive than past seasons, pre season trials will be soon.

Yes, I think there will be atleast 1, maybe 2, player swap on the cards before comp starts. I also reckon we might get a good reserve grade half stuck behind a teams preferred half. We have little to no coverage in half with both Hastings and Madden gone in 23.

Our reserve half is Cameroux, who is good, has a very kicking game and kicks goals.

Gus doesn’t always get what he wants.
If he’s chasing a half from NQ you would think that he’s not in the running for MM.

COWBOYS GUN HALFBACK SHUNS GUS’ BULLDOGS
North Queensland young gun No.7 Tom Duffy has knocked back an approach from Bulldogs boss Phil Gould to stick loyal with the Cowboys.
The Daily Telegraph reported Gould and the Bulldogs identified Duffy as the best young halfback in the country, but he has ruled out a move to Sydney.
The former Australian Schoolboy and Queensland under 19s star reportedly has no interest in leaving North Queensland, the club he supported as a kid growing up.
The Bulldogs approached the Cowboys about the potential for an early release, but Duffy chose to bide his time and work under Chad Townsend and Tom Dearden.
“100 per cent. I’ve grown up here, all my family is from here and I’ve supported the Cowboys since I can remember,” Duffy told The Telegraph.
“I definitely want to stay here and if I can, I’ll be staying here as long as I can.”
The 19-year-old prodigy is content to learn from the Cowboys generals as he forges a path to the NRL in North Queensland.
“When they first came back I sort of took a back seat, it was a bit surreal to train next to them,” Duffy said.

I have heard so many times best young halfback in the country, few come to fruition. Gus is just building up lower grades, you need backup.

I did hear last week on the yktr podcast from willie mason that the bulldogs didn’t have an offer on the table for Moses

Dogs are out of the running they were last week too, it is us or Parramatta, still thinknwe will get him

It’ll be great to watch throwing the ball around all over the park … until we start dropping them or they get intercepted.

But I think if we score more tries but get beat I’ll be happier than I have been since JT said our defense needs to tighten up (never did) or Madge saying we need to toughen up (we never did)

I'm looking forward to seeing who has been taught Benji's tactic of passing the ball into the stands. Don't think Brookes has the grunt to do that.

I think the assumption should be he is staying at Parra to lead them to a golden 5 year period of not making the finals.

They'll have nothing on our 11 years 💪

either way MM will not be at Belmore

You’ve been consistently positive on the likelihood of MM coming to WT. Are you commenting from inside knowledge or just as an optimistic supporter?

Yeah, That ark has holes in it.

I’d say good luck to him but I wouldn’t mean it.

He still has a lot to prove imo. I saw nothing from him in NSW Cup last year.

If they learn all of Benji's traits . . . the good and the bad as well . . . we might actually enjoy watching our team play attacking footy again. Even with passes into row 4 we will still be far, far ahead of where we've been for the past 7 or 8 seasons. Bring it.

He struggled last year.

I think you're also missing the key fact that the singer's name is Bon Jovi

You guys must be too young .. 🤪 .. back in my days Bon Jovi was a band and the singer was Jon Bon Jovi .. 👍

Sorry but he is very average.

Does your source seem to think he hasn’t made his mind up, or he has signed with the tigers?
