Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Sheens has confirmed it’s Shaun Johnson lol. Aahh nostalgia nostalgia 😂

I don’t think it’s the worst idea but it shouldn’t be the answer in 24 or 25 to drive us to the finals.

It would take a 2-3yr deal & incentives outside of his registered contract for him to move his family across.

Would surprise me if it happened.

Well he was helping taking dead wood

Aloai and Paseka worth keeping

No

Wouldnt believe a word he says. Sheens aint Lee H - he knows you don't start spruiking a possible signing until they turn up at training.

 

[Don Kershane]

No

only for Manly

 

[clontarfkid]

Paseka wasn't ready at 20,but was always gonna be a first grader one day..timing..

Chad Townsend was very good tonight. Much more like how he played last year

 

[JimboTiger]

Wonder if it could be Ethan Sanders young half from parra ?
Would solidify a spine for the future
1. Bula
6. Large
7. Sanders
9. Da Silva

 

[Tito Santana]

The worst part was his complete disrespect towards Wests Tigers when he got his 2 minutes of glory at the Roorters and after scoring a few tries for the Bears at North Sydney.

Must have thought he had reached Super Star status and that Wayne had a walk up starting spot for him in the Dolphins team.

Think again dickhead, the only status you've reached is Super League status.

Hank, you have just won Tito’s Best Post of the Year!

Arriba!

I like it! The one I thought of is 18yo Latu Fainu. He played in the City U18s on Saturday & formed a good partnership with Tallyn Da Silva and Lachlan Galvin on an edge. Thinking may be to add him to the top 18-19s we have. Bring him via JF & Cup next season.

Short term plan to bring in a mentor controlling half for 1-2 seasons max in Johnson, Pearce, Townsend, Hunt mould (worst case Sezer) & re-sign Brooks as 5/8 for 2 seasons on $450k approx (and if Brooks wants to go elsewhere look at Blake Taafe, Connor Tracey).

Does anyone know who the player buzz is reporting about???

Buzz heard we've signed a guy named Fulton and got the generations mixed up. Can't wait to see Bob run out for the Tiges.

Ethan Sanders could be a genuine NRL star very quickly.
He’d be a massive signing.

As long as we don't sign Sullivan I will be happy.. Comes across like a tosser (He might be a nice guy) on the field and glad we beat them today just to rub that smirk off his face

You don’t want to sign an electric X factor whose infectious energy would reinvigorate our backline after years of dour old Brooksie?

Big fans of all of those players. However that spine is probably too inexperienced as a unit.

I suppose Bula will likely have 70 games by the time Large is 19.

1. Bula
2 nofo
3. Naden / toa
4. Koula
5. tupou
6. Brooks
7. Townsend
9. Api
14. Da Silva

Does anyone think it's funny that the Tigers are 3 wins out from 3 place with about 2 Thirds of the season to go anything is possible

Hypothetically if that was the spine
Having them playing together in the lower grades for the couple of years to help build combinations. Hence the interest in an experienced half for a year or 2 till they are ready ?
