Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[tigerballs]

Farnworth will be staying in Brisbane. don't be surprised if we don't go after Welsby given the way Bula's come on in the preseason. AD and Laurie will sign 1 year extensions and will back themselves but I don't think either of them are long term options. if I had to guess, the spine next year looks like...

1. Bula
6. Brooks
7. Moses
9. Koroisau
13. Matamua

14. Laurie

1. Bula
6. Brooks
7. Welsby
9. Koroisau

He's the real deal. You'll see by season's end.

Where is all your news tigerballs?

 

[DUCK]

Actually quite a good idea. He can sleep at mine.

Are we talking about Bula ??

 

[Moh]

Surprised by the AD extension, especially if Moses eventuates.

With Brooks not going anywhere, I don't see where AD fits.

😂😂😂
Now your opinions are "Humble"?
- You had AD as captain a week ago??

I'm always humble brother haha...
Happy with who Api's teammates
selected, think Adam will be vice

Lead by a horrific injury toll toward the end of the season.
All the cards were stacked against us and spending time trying to find a scapegoat is unproductive.
I read a great article the other day on trying not to overthink things. We all do it but we really shouldn’t.

I mentioned the horrific injury toll and used it as the basis of an argument that letting players out of contracts early and loaning others to competitors left us with only the remnants of a first grade side by the end of the year, when coincidently we fell in a heap and came last by 2 wins.

I’m not finding scapegoat, I was responding to a statement made by another poster early.

How do you know Brooks isn't going anywhere? He's still unsigned

I think the comment was related to if Moses comes then we know Brooks stays.

 

[innsaneink]

Weve re-signed dOUEHI???

 

[Kaito]

Mitch's decision has very little to do
with Brooks being there I think. It's a
nice media story though.. I think people
are putting too much stock in that tbh.
His future and contract isn't contingent
on Brooks, thats just a nice feel good
story. Business is business at the end
of the day, it would be nice if they could
play together again but isn't a guarantee

 

[Demps]

Not yet....

Early reports saying 1 year extension.

 

[Hmm]

Glad we got the spoon. We deserved to hit rock bottom. Everyone including Maguire AND Sheens to blame.

Seems daine Laurie needs a big one. No love anywhere for him

I'd rather doueihi at 1 myself

I would rather Laurie at fullback, I think he was okay in a horrible team last year, he definitely has a huge ceiling and I think he’s gunna have a good year for us this year, he’s got some competition brought in to lift his game. I really think he’s shown enough to be optimistic of him, he’s still young and if he was in a top team with a great pack he’d have a lot more room to work in returning the ball and also in attack, hopefully our new forward pack can lay that platform for him to play off the cuff that suits him

A lot to play out, eh?

I worry his celling isn't high enough

 

[BrendonWT]

well if everything we are hearing is true

we resigned doueihi for a extra year but we want moses for 24

doueihi’s previously said
“play me at 6 or let me play nsw cup”

and moses wont play without his bromance partner

the math aint mathing unless
1: our slimey valentine has swiftly rejected us
2: AD had an attitude switch
3. our toxic ex has accepted the PO for 24’ and we’ll have a sequel to this debacle in post season 23’
all still speculation

Or maybe its see ya Staines and/or Laurie and Doueihi FB in 2024; Brooks and Moses in the halves.
