Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Tupou has only played a couple of games but I think we can all see he's a huge prospect.. any chance he could be a future centre? As you can tell, I think this is one of our main areas to improve

Seems obvious he'll be aimed at centre.

Is there any real chance we could pinch Walker? I think he'd be a good pickup for us...

Chooks wont move him on without a decent replacement in mind
Walker has been dropped for one game, it’s hardly the death sentence the media is portraying it to be.
Has been getting some rubbish service from smith from dummy half.
Smith is the one that should be axed (or demoted to the bench) - but obvs he's on too much coin to axe.
It's far more irritating how Walker gets dropped, yet a certain halfback is lining up against manly on sunday.

💯 twerp... and it's no wonder he did the dirty on/up and left WT.
It now seems to me he always considered himself too good for Us.
Without actually saying as much, he indirectly admitted by saying how great it is now he is finally playing at Manly that he Never really loved playing here and therefore was perfectly happy to throw Us under the bus when the opportunity arose.
What a bloody jerk as well as being a twerp and a cad and a bounder... to put it politely.

I remember that half a year when Sharon was a decent player.

What's the inside opinion on our regies centre Saukuru.. pretty sure he's top 30.. runs like talakai.. is he an actual prospect to be a future first grader..? If he is then would it be worth throwing him in like they're doing with Bula.. season isn't going too well.. maybe blood them all.. (matamua included)st grade

Only seen him twice, he looks a very good prospect, would even give him a game in 1st grade , just to judge his protenial

Watched the st Helen’s game this morning and one player really stood out for me , he’s 32 , but gee we could do with him for 2 years . Mr LOMAX there 5/8 great kicking game good defender and throws a great pass , maybe he would come just to prove himself

Great player but I am pretty sure he has stated he has no interest in coming to the NRL. Bit like Roby (he had no desire to come to the NRL either) who is the Cameron Smith of the Super League.

I have just finished watching St Helen’s game and that Dodds looks alright. Lots of pointing, talking, waving his arms around and coordinating their attack. That’s what we need - someone who just runs the show - couldn’t care less if he never has a run but if he can it’s a bonus. He wants to come to the NRL but there aren’t many clubs looking for a half. Possibly raiders if Jack goes. We should have a crack - I know his boss said don’t come to tigers but this is the sort of stuff we are up against in our recruitment. People just laugh at us

Sounds a lot like the half that won us a few games and we sent him to Newcastle.

Winger is more important than centre. Why would we move Tupou from a position he could be a superstar at which is important, to a less important position which doesn't fit his skills as well...

Yep, tough position knowing when to come in or stay on your line.

So many centres and wingers freak out and rush in and only have eyes for one person. Toa v Walsh still gives me nightmares

Brooks, has been paid on potential for 10 years.

Time to let him go.

And we will never win a premiership with Luke in the halves

Relinking with Maguire...

Relinking with Maguire...

🤔 Doubt it ..but if you say so..

 

[Telltails]

🤔 Doubt it ..but if you say so..

Well if Brooks is headed that way he will be crossing paths with Maguire unless... he gets sacked before he gets there. 😊

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

🤔 Doubt it ..but if you say so..

If he goes to Raiders and Madge who is an assistant coach currently at the Raiders stays then he would be rejoining Madge.
