Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

So nofa was the only one that was bad , I do remember on numerous occasions when they went to nofa side , he had to cover 30 - 40 meters, the blokes inside had just given up , NOT saying he was good far from it but please tell the whole story rather than push the hate crap 💩

I think it's more the case his reported salary far exceeds his current value & output. Nofa is probably the last of our squad on 'bad' deals.

It's hard fitting in "contested bomb" training into a training session when you have to do 200 passes as well.A fter last weeks debacle i am hoping the whole squad has been doing nothing but 400 tackle training and 1 hour defensive positional training

Why settle on 400? Last week is surely a 600 tackle week!

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Nah- it's just you were SO exact with the number & the outcome if he doesn't do exactly that. I just assumed it came from some coaching textbook..

There is a theory that if you do anything 10,000 times, you become an expert! So Tupou would need 100 training sessions of catching 100 bombs to excel haha

But he's certainly not the last of our squad that is just plain bad.

Don't over do it, save some tackles for the actual game.

Always liked Ryan Harris as a cricketer. He was tough as they come but sometimes his body let him down. I like him even more now.

Hard to believe only Canberra & Parramatta in the race for Ethan Sanders.

We’re waiting for Fainu to decide where he goes. By the time he knocks us back Sanders will be off the market.

Much like letting Paps leave thinking we had Tedesco in the bag.

That’s how Pascoe works. Only one plan at a time so no one feels overworked.

Given our predicament and need to find >2 halves we should be aggressively trying to recruit both.
Rather than waiting an unknown period for one to decide if he is game to join us.

That's great everyone always enquires about our players but we never seem to make any enquires of our own. I dont rate Nofo but in no way shape or form would i be shipping him off this season, most likely paying a big bit of freight.
At the end of the season i would be happy for him to go, but not when we never get anything in return, you can't keep shipping players off for nothing.

That theory is 10 000 hours not 10 000 times.

Fortunately, this isn't the case.... Fainu is seen as our long term 6 prospect.

Sanders is seen as a 7 option. However, the club aren't looking at an inexperienced 7 more so the opposite hence why Pearce, Johnson and Moses have been contacted previously. I understand it, the idea of Sanders and Fainu both getting thrown in the deep end to turn this team around is a dangerous game to play. Much prefer partner Fainu with someone experienced to help with his development and overall team production.

Hunt is still seen as a potential 7 option for 2024 but this is seeming unlikely.

On SEN today it was suggested by the ‘hat’ that tigers are about to “embark on a very aggressive recruitment drive” hopefully it is with quality players willing to say ‘yes’

Yes you can, were going to be aggressive in the off season.........2048
