Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Mole reporting we have signed Mania Cherrington, effective immediately 😂😂😂 not a joke. Legit can’t make this up. What’s Matt Groat up to I wonder??!

Can some one who knows please explain why?? This seems insane to me. Havnt we got a wealth of depth in DH unless some one else is about to be released.

And Dora forgot to mention his time at another club altogether. Those fans were never his fans.

What a pussy look. The other players must have been laughing at him coz all the fans were.

NO. JUST NO. Honestly only tigers supporters would settle for this. When do you ever hear about cleary, teddy, Cam smith ect battling attitude and weight issues. They are full time highly paid professional athletes they have all the high performance and Nutritional support money can buy, if they are having these issues 10 years into a career thats attitude. We dont need these kind of players did we learn nothing from joey leilua honestly

NSW Cup contract. Would be a bench hooker in NSW Cup, no impact on Top 30 and not worth getting worked up about.

We'd be on the cusp of making the finals now if we'd kept Hasting and let Brooks go instead.

Our pack is playing as well as any in the comp. Backline is doing it's job. Api has been great. Even Staines showed promise at 1 (of course he gets moved immediately by our genius coach). It's just the halves at this point really holding us back.

Get a genuine halfback and we're pushing, if not making the top 8. Get a quality halves pairing and this team is absolutely good enough to make it.

The only redeeming thing about him leaving Wests was it completely torpedoed his rep career. Still got reasonable money for years at Cronulla after being moved on by the Dogs but if he had any aspirations to continue on with his International and SOO career it basically blew up after he left us.

Thought it was well covered - but it seems not.

Might be to give Rua a shove to get his weight and fitness up to par....

I think it is a top 30 as the article mentions he will be putting pressure on jake for the back up hooker role

“He will start his second coming at the Tigers in the NSW Cup but is expected to put pressure on Simpkin for the back-up hooking role as the season unfolds.”

Wests and Balmain fans of old don't hate each other; well none that I know anyway. My old Wests and Balmain mates all follow WT now. As there aren't two entities in ownership we all have a mutual disrespect for the way our club has been mismanaged.

I don't think that is quite the same in the Dragons tent - definitely two entities pulling in different directions there.

The irony is the only real thing that has merged the Magpies and Balmain fans into one, hasn't been the onfield performance not even winning the 2005 premiership did it, it was our mutual hatred for the way the clubs been run and the parasites at the top.

Players outside the 30 can play NRL from Round 11 onwards.

That’s why it says “as the season unfolds”.

if I were Sheens and Marshall, I'd be watching this Sam Walker situation very closely. he is exactly what we want in a halfback for this style of football. don't let Robinson's inability to develop halves fool you. he is a gem.

Sam Walker dropped after back to back losses.

WT persisting with Brooks after 16 straight losses.

There’s the difference.

If you were ranking coaches it would be (imo)
Level 1: Bennett, Bellamy
Level 2; Robinson, Cleary
Level 3: Fitzgibbon, Walters ( improvers)
Than all others.

I’d agree on most bar Cleary and that’s only because I can’t stand the pea heart lol

1000% agree.

Walker is a gun.

It is rather funny that a player, under contract and generally loved by his club, gets dropped for a single game and suddenly he becomes a recruitment target in some eyes.

Sam Walker will be at the Roosters for a very, very long time.

that club has a tendency to discard players on a hair trigger. if he begins to become restless then we need to look into it. that's all I'm saying. I fully expect him to stay at the chooks also, but hey, best to observe.
