Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Where did this come from?

That is Simon Dwyer & that young girl in the coaches' box's job, video analysis and providing a video dossier on all teams prior to playing them. There was a story on it somewhere.

Looks to me to be from Brooks answering that he hasn't watched all that many Dolphins games this year due to similar scheduling/travel. Seems some put 2 and 2 together and came up with 5, and then moved further.

That’s up there with the all time worst takes Demps. Brooks is a far better player than Wakeham will ever be, like him or not.

Wakeham level ? Haha . That’s absolute gibberish . He’s a gun , just not clutch . At the eagles he won’t need to be . Wakeham is the very definition of a backup . Fill in for a game or two , but as soon as defences have time to strategise and watch tape , he’s diabolical. That’s not his fault , and it doesn’t diminish him , it just values him correctly .
Brooks has his limitations , but he’s an nrl full time half . Something that’s as rare as a white rhino in the nrl .

Sorry to bug you teddy but did you get any update on Sezer?

Seizer pretty much done - for some reason when it relates to SL players getting a deal done includes some extra processes. He should be announced soon. Bateman apparently was active in the recruitment process and sold the vision to Seizer.

I also asked about Xavier Wilson - he hasn't heard anything but did admit would be a fantastic signing. Big expectations for that kid.

Thanks for that update, I wouldn't have thought we'd have to upsell to Seizer to get him here - a contract should've been sufficient. Any news on Stains?

I agree but we are talking about first grade players. I they can't tackle of pass how did they get to this level ?

It was a little tounge and cheek. I’d like to think tigers are doing video sessions but would not be surprised if we are not. Our squad is slowly improving with the right type of player.

No you'd have about 30 dollars max.

Let's not do the boring thing again but there are hundreds of Tigers players let go over the decades and most of them go on to nothing. Tigers aren't complete mugs, the main issue for Tigers is getting quality players in, not keeping the quality players we have.

Aside from the Tedesco / Woods / Moses year, most players that we really want, once they are here, stay on. That is true for most clubs.

The players who we wanted to keep but left is one thing (I would add Ryan Matterson to that list - ordinary bloke, good player), the other is the players we didn't rate who we should have and could have kept - JAC, Koroibiti, Pappenhausen, Fifita, Heighington, Austin, Curtis Sironen. Taupau as well, although not sure if wanted to leave or the club didn't want to keep him.
Having said that, every club has a ton of similar screw ups - Bulldogs with JT, Newcastle with Latrelle, Brisbane with Cameron Smith
