Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Not sure if it applies to lower levels but he already has a long contract so wouldn't be able to make an offer without permission. The Flying Bin Chickens didn't give him permission to negotiate until a week ago??

And again why has he waited a week , could of. Even signed already, rather than let other teams a chance to get him

That’s really bad .. 6 Tigers in the Bald Eagles line up .. Pasaki, Aloiai, Tuilagi, Woods, Brooks, and Talau.

Reminiscent of the Tiger Sharks.

He would be great. I'd even swap with Asu Kepaoa for him. Both centre/backrowers but Iro is a potential long-term solid centre.

Why swap?? Can we not just sign a player anymore ? What is with all the “swapping” all the time ? Not aimed at you BWG , but the general Sentiment I see of late

 

[TigerNeddyK]

I wouldn't say Furner is outside the club either. Came through under Sheens in Canberra.

Jesus .. that’s a fair umbrella comparison.. so did Bellamy ,, Stuart Royce Simmons Meninga Alexander , I mean Gotdamn most the NRL has some connections to Sheens

Sentiment

That's alright. Swap as they are similar players and I think Iro has greater upside & ability.

They haven't replaced him yet, is it even a positive?

Positive is it isn’t lingering anymore
Whether you wanted him to stay or go decision has been made so it’s over

Why? They kicked Luke Brooks out which everyone was screaming for. Same level of planning as some muppets on here.

You think some board members are posting on here?

 

[TigerNeddyK]

I agree, you are almost making me feel sorry for the Eagles!

Honestly, Aloiai and Tuilagi we kinda miss a little bit. But would rather have Klemmer and Paps.

Sheens probably rightly has steered away from Woods. IMHO it wouldn't have taken much to bring him back.

I’d rather be subjected to 30 min highlight reel of Reece Walsh try scoring celebrations than have Aloia at the club..

 

[TigerNeddyK]

que??

Si ?

Kelma ( Turned turnstile) Tuilagi ,, known for the arm grab

One thing that we did do that turned out, we rearranged things and turned Kelma into Klema.

What are these Olakau'atu rumours?

Rumours, just the same as the other 9000 odd posts.😂

Why is there a lot of Brooks lovers saying West Tigers kicked Brooks out, When they did not.
Brooks was made a fair offer by West Tigers based on current value, and he knocked it back.
And accepted better offer from Manly.

BROOKS CHOICE,

Stop with the lies, he chose to go.

Yes he chose a market value contract

You said it in your sentence. How was our offer "current market value" if he had a team paying more?

You're kidding yourself if you think we couldn't have kept him. Only a few weeks ago he was talking about wanting to be a 1 club man.

The people spouting about being a brooks "lover" or "simp" just don't get it. Sure, move him on. But move him on WHEN we have a better option. Anything else is just as dumb as hell - we're now in a desperate position where any agent knows we'll be willing to pay overs for a half.

Has been for last 10 years,

And obviously its your life to have a shot against any mention pertaining to brooks.
By anyone.

C'mon Hammer it was everywhere that Newcastle thought they had him last year and it was Sheens that blocked him from going.
Sheens and Benji couldn't make it any more clear that they wanted him at the club.
If he was unhappy with the offer but committed to the club that's what his manager is for - just like he did with Mitch Moses when he wasn't satisfied with Parra'a first offer but eventually got the deal with Parra that he wanted.
We offered Moses more than Parra but didn't get him because he wanted to play for Parra.
Brooks didn't enter into any further negotiations at WTs and neither did his manager - that was his choice.

The band aid has been ripped off and finally forced everyone to move on.
