Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Alex Seyfarth's #1 Fan]

What does the talau storm knock back have anything to do with benji and sheens?

I agree. Neither of them were at the club when that decision was made.

 

[TillLindemann]

Yeah I don’t think there were to many writing him off?

I was calling him a potential star from day 1, but then again I was also calling Gildart a potential star from day 1.

If we get Morgan Harper, I will deadset eat my own head.
Rumour is Cooper Johns for TT.

Swap for DCE

 

[Halbrowne61]

Have you ever witnessed the Morgan Harper turnstile defensive style?

Using the AD technique !

 

[Telltails]

TT will improve as a player if he can stay injury free and get some consistent footy. Any Manly discard won't serve us any better if they havnt made it there and they certainly wont be passing on any player that they have future plans for.

 

[Bones]

If any swap will happen between us and manly it will be Tommy Talau for Morgan Harper and nothing more

That’s like trading a bag of 💩 for a bag of 🤮

 

[yeti]

Still on contract until end of 2024. We should have him locked up well before November 1, so that no one can even negotiate contracts with him.

Which means he can negotiate come November. We need to lock him up NOW!

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

If its true and Talau is agitating for a release this year i think its pretty poor form from him. We stood by him and gave him a contract for this year when we didnt have to given his injury, he's also been playing but for injury. If he is to sign with Manly for 24 so be it do the best to repay the faith for this year might be a good idea.

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

So it’s a Talau for Sharon Woods swap

It all makes sense now

 

[Camel2281]

There's just simply no chance Cooper Johns can randomly pop up here for a player suggestion to replace Tommy. A like for like replacement makes more sense.

Why? We're desperate for a halves player and Manly are low on outside backs

Why would he go to manly to transfer to the tigers?

 

[DJG]

Why would he go to manly to transfer to the tigers?

This is the way

This is the way

That's gold

 

[Camel2281]

I have spoken

 

[SeanT]

Just reading that Dylan Edwards is a free agent from November.
As he used to be a 5/8 before going to fb, perhaps he could fill a Munster type role for us.
Well worth looking at imo?

Or he could just be signed as a fullback?

Maybe. His hands are still woeful. He's had bad injuries but so sick of keeping players for potential. Show up or shut up

 

[Odessa]

This is the way

That show is like pulling teeth if you take out Luke in the first two seasons it's a hard slow watch

[tigertragic]

Seems like someone at Manly like to get tigers players to agitate for releases
