Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

We're in a worse place now and with worse Management than when he knocked us back in 2002

Exactly, but he’s come a long way since then, and apart from 05 we haven’t.

 

[Needaname]

Nobody decent will come anywhere near us until something is done to sort out the mess. Any of our big signings not tied down beyond 2024 will be planning their escape right now. Of these, I believe Api has a player option for 2025. There will be a conga line of clubs waiting to speak to his agent next year.

So our captain and key signing is available to speak to clubs from Nov1 this year? Well played Tigers :s

Taaffe gets mentioned a lot in this thread but I just don't see it at all with him. Sure he's young and could improve, but looked very ordinary in the 1 for Souths whenever filling in for Latrell.

Played the entire 2021 finals series as souffs fullback when they made the big dance

Better than anyone we’ve got for sure

Taffe is really a 6 that was playing 1, way better than what we have

That's right. The toughness he showed playing out of position at fullback in a finals series as a rookie will do me.

I'm very curious why Demetriou doesn't have him on the bench.

What’s the new daily telegraph news regarding another spine shake up?

 

[Telltails]

I would think D Trindall would be worth having a crack at. Not going to get a go with Hynes ahead of him and you would think Sharks wouldn't block his path to a FG position.

Unless Sheen's and Marshall think he is better 5/8 than Brooks it ain't happening unfortunately.

They view brooks as our 5/8

Apparently they’re going back to:
1. Staines
6. Doueihi
7. Brooks

Wow, can't wait to see the utter shit the 'shaken up' halves pairing produces...

I hope you mean B Trindall. Tricky Trindall has been retired a long while.

Right you are mate - typo😎

Toby Sexton is Brooks with a mullet....Kurt Falls is a good goal kicker but worse than Brooks in all facets of the game.

Could be right, point is there are always options out there, Lachie Miller at Newcastle is a prime example

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

I'd even take Steve Trindall over our current halves pairing.

Then they're idiots

Nobody is worse than Brooks

Simple, Cobbo and Laurie both indigenous, so I’d say one admiring the other due to race not club.

I admire the young fella, great Wakka Wakka player just like The Pearl love to see brothers excelling!

Not sure, but Peter Badel on NRL 360 said Pascoe and Brooks are the 2 biggest problems and both need to go, surprised you guys and girls didn't hear me cheering
