It’s all about the pathways S, ours is paved with gold and we will be red hot in 5 + years( you’ve heard of a 5 year plan haven’t you ?)
We have an annual version !🤣
yes sounds good to meHas does 5/8 Fainu .. number 7 Walker for 2024 sound .. 👍👍
You don’t have to pay your spine exorbitant salaries.Problem is specialist centres want spine money. As long as there is and under supply of elite spine players then this trend will continue.
Unfortunately not.surprised?
I don't really get comments like this and others.Strange that this has been announced now given there was apparently an imminent swap coming.
Unless it’s announced today or tomorrow I’m concerned we’ve screwed it up with Fainu.
Both Webster and Payton are absolute surprise successes.You could sign Cameron Munster. Wests Tigers will be Wests Tigers. He would quickly become comfortable in the system that Wests Tigers are. No belief. Bottom dwellers. Sustainability in mediocrity. Hasler is taken, Flanagan is taken, Webster they ditched, Payton they ditched. Whereas a good coach realises your potential aka Melbourne, Dolphins, Broncos etc........ However there is always a silver lining in all things in life...... playing for Wests Tigers gives you 2 great opportunities. 1. Good junior football program and 2. When you make the big time at Wests Tigers - you are on show for the bigger teams in the competition to graduate to.
And an observation from yesterday - Kevin Walters on Ben Hunt after Broncos loss - why would he come to us after that performance?
Damning! Where does that leave Wests Tigers.
Of course but we are aiming for GF glory arent we?You don’t have to pay your spine exorbitant salaries.
Wakeham and Bula are on chookfeed but I’d bet you if we had Manu on staff as a centre, we’d have a few more wins with the same spine.
Swap is Talau not BrooksBased on todays news/announcement, maybe the swap is taking a little longer as Manly and WT may want to include Samuela Fainu and Brooks in an immediate swap also? I can imagine Brooks contract this year would be a stumbling block though.
I don’t think that will happen, however at this stage of his career plus with our team around him I can’t see Fainu being anymore effective for us than Sullivan is for St George. We still need an experienced half alongside him. A Foggerty or Townsend he’ll even offer the extra cash to Keary.Can’t help but think in typical Wests Tigers fashion that Fainu stays at Manly and in 3yrs Manly wins the comp with Brooks and Fainu in the halves.
Meanwhile we continue to hunt for some halves that can get us to at least 1st week of finals.
Hopefully we get a win, Fainu comes across and we get him to reach his potential in our jerseys.
Manly have announced Talau for 2024 , no mention of a swap this yearSwap is Talau not Brooks
Patience..........Manly have announced Talau for 2024 , no mention of a swap this year
Brooks 4 years from 2024
It matters because Fainu is still under contract.I don't really get comments like this and others.
Talau was always going to Manly, nothing's changed there.
Signing Brooks only puts us in a stronger position now that Manly really needs to get him off their books.
Who cares if Fainu comes next week or next year. It makes no difference.
