If big ken is cooked and we do somehow manage to get him medically retired who do we think comes in or should we bring in to the top 30?

Will Smith?

There’s a new article just came out about Moses has made a decision. Anyone can access it?

Seems a gossip/lifestyle type article , non footy related issue.

Will Smith?

Yeh that was my initial thought, he looked promising yesterday and I thinks a better option then Wakeham if I’m being honest. I like ken but he’s probably better of being retired unfortunately

According to Slothfield , who 2 weeks ago said that MM would extend with Parra by the end of the week …

He said this morning if he was framing a market it would be eels $1.90 tigers $2.10 to get MM

Sad truth hey ...

Will Smith is a very well rounded footballer I reckon and he's always been that way.

Can play multiple positions and always has a crack.

He's an asset to have in the top 30

Yeh completely agree, I was abit shocked when we first signed him but was even more shocked when I found out he wasn’t in the top 30. He’s always been a solid player, he made a big difference when he came on yesterday

He got engaged to his partner who had his child last year .
Takes his time committing to anything

Unlucky saw the tackle was a big impact to the knee

Personally if Kenny was to be let go I’d be using his cash to resign some of our young boys before looking at any outside replacements. If we can somehow do what seems to be the impossible for the tigers and keep this squad together I can see a long period of success of this group alone

My initial thoughts were the worst for him ay. Didn’t look all that good

 

[WT46]

Such a shame with Ken cause he was our top scorer last year and a great winger without any injuries. Might have to let him go and let the youngsters have a chance.

Yeah he's very competitive too. Which will be a great influence on the team.

 

[carltonleach]

Perfect 14....
Can play EVERY position bar prop and be effective....

I'm still shaking my head there's not more talk of him.
The momentum shifted when he came on yesterday...

Fantastic pick up.

Yeah 100% agree with you mate. I’m very surprised Wakeham got top 30 over him

Yeah I think he played so wel yesterday !! But he’s in the top 30 already aswell I meant someone outside our top 30

After watching Jock play for the Broncos it was a good decision to let him go. Even with a fresh start he's still too timid. He plays like he doesn't really believe he belongs. Wakeham showed that he's a better option as a backup. He has mistakes in him but he plays with confidence and fits Sheens' style.
Robbie has improved Simpkin 100% in attack, but Will Smith showed he's a viable option as Api's backup as well.
The Benji era is looking good.

Unpopular opinion about Smith but I didn't like him at 9, felt he stagnated the attack a lot & we looked a little directionless there with him at dummy half & his service wasn't that crisp. He also just kept trying crash plays & one outs to the forwards which annoyed me a little but other than that he's a wonderful asset to have.

Smith for top 30 spot. But Tupou to replace Ken on the wing.

If Moses signs is he expecting his buddy Brooks to still be here next year given they are besties?

I dont think there is room for both, but some have said playing with Brooks is a big attraction for him to come here ( and the money of course…)

It would be scandalous to have a halves pairing of Moses and Brooks. Hey that might get us into the 8 and we wouldn't want that!

I was just arguing/discussing this with Paws. Who cares what Moses wants ? All I care about is us winning games. If Brooks goes and we become a better team good. If any player goes and we become a better team good.

I liked Hastings but maybe we are better off without him. We might be better off without Brooks as well.
