Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Not good enough and we have to stop the excuses like blaming the halves. These guys are top dollar signings and they didn't deliver.

I disagree to an extent. Backrowers are so reliant on their halves to be effective in attack.

I'm not the guy who is going to blame other players for little Jimmy's performances. They didn't do enough. I don't think Klemmer and Stef did enough either.

Api managed to do plenty.

Added:- I hope they have better performances next year. I don't want another crappy season.

Some very important changes to salary cap guidelines for 2024, from AAP story.

• clubs will have 10 days to up the ante and try and keep players once they receive offers from rivals before a transfer can be ratified by the NRL.
• players will no longer be able to shift clubs after June 30.
• clubs will be able to field supplementary players outside their top 30 at any point in the season without an exemption from 2024 (not just after Round 10).
• players developed by clubs with less than six matches of experience in state cup or the NRL will no longer be able to be approached by rivals until after round six of the final year of their contract.
• All other players can be approached from November 1 during the final 12 months of their contract.

Excluding Roosters of course

• clubs will be able to field supplementary players outside their top 30 at any point in the season without an exemption from 2024 (not just after Round 10).

So I take this as meaning that Development contract players and Train & Trial contract players are eligible for selection from Round 1 2024.

If the NRL ever moved to become an under 18s comp… the Tigers would kill it …

He is up for grabs in November for 2025…. Might have a bit of competition to keep him

Yessir. New jerseys this year. Looking forward
to what they come up with. We could put the
Madge & Brooks era behind us. Fresh new start!

LOL new jerseys is the least of our concerns.
We have about 50 and only 2 are worth owning.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

But the news jerseys could help us player better. And more sales for General Lee.

I'm a balmain boy originally but I'm keen to see
an all black jersey with a white chevron & splash
of orange. I haven't bought a jersey in 10+ years
lmao. Just keen on a change, over these ones

And what about the caps?

That would be a good protest.
Dont buy the club's new gear.

There is a Wests similar style jersey worn by Tuiaki in his highliights. I thought it looked great as did the matching Balmain similar jersey that year. Nothing wrong wth a little history for both Wests and Balmain.

There can be no protest against the rich. Or can there?

From memory he is as slow as a snail.

And still faster than Alamoti. He's like concrete shoes in a swamp.

Yep. Agee 100 Would really love to see that Paws

Pink would be good. Works for the Panthers.

Think kit is the man

He's quality too, no doubt. Particularly in the intangibles; application, leadership, humility, peer respect. From talking to several of his junior coaches, he, and his brother, are from the top shelf as young men.
