Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Not our money. Players realise its a sure fire way to loser ville and can be career suicide. Luai would be best advised to stay at Penrith and keep growing his brand.

Twal built an even better brand from not scoring. Can always opt for that path when you join the Tigers.

When Moses leota and jwh came back on changed the game alot aswell

Fish you mean?

 

[Tucker]

Urge you to go back and watch that last part of the game again. Cogger was playing first receiver and as a result gave Cleary more room to playmake. Prehaps it was because Yeo wasn’t on the field that they needed to adopt that style. But then I ponder, is Cleary a better half playing off the back of another?
Wonder what that might mean for Luai if Penrith go down that path.

That’s what I said.
Cogger came on and looked after the simple stuff, leaving Cleary to throw the sink at the Broncs.
No it wasnt Yeo, his impact on games has lessened to what it once was… it was the absence of Luai.

I get your point. I think Yeo has a huge impact in the panthers games. And second to that probably lessens the impact that Luai has on the team.
Remember when we had Elijah Taylor feeding both Brooks and Moses either side of the ruck and the way both played off that.
Luai would be a different player if he wasn’t pigeonholed to an edge.

Maybe. I think he benefits from their system more than he adds to it.

Luai would tick a lot of boxes for a lot of teams, you’re underselling him.
Though he’ll probably end up at the Roosters with his mate Spencer if he leaves the Panthers.

I thought you said nobody wants to come here?

Correction. The three or four difference makers we need appear to be outside our recruitment capabilities, with or without the guy from Manly.

We can (and do) sign other clubs discards and the odd decent player who fails to improve the side.

 

[balmain boy]

All is possible but he’s a mate who has proved reliable always so I trust him
That’s sort of how it works

Fair enough, I hope if it does come to fruition that whomever it is is worth it

Tell me then,

Give us a small realistic list of players on the market you would like to see the club sign?

It’s not about me. Benji knows the problem he faces - went after them in Munster, Moses, Pearce. The club can’t do a deal.

Hence the review .

Most players are staying at the incumbent club.
Have to count players who  chose to go elsewhere instead of us.

Failure is failure however you view it.

 

[balmain boy]

What agent? Luai does not have one. Yet. However until the new laws come in perhaps there is a loophole which we all know is that management can speak arrange a deal but can’t sign the dotted line. No idea how that works if you’re managing yourself.
But aside from all that I’d say his focus is getting his shoulder surgery booked in, having a holiday all before the silly season kicks in.

And that makes it even more impossible that it could be him. In the lead up to a grand final, or in days immediately afterwards, he's not going to be worrying about where he's playing in 2025. If he had an agent then there was a minute chance but him representing himself that far in advance, while on boat with his teammates? It's just unfathomable...

Wait a second; I thought you’re telling us all there are crucial player negotiations at stake at the moment. And in the next breath your suggesting there isn’t anyone of worth to sign?

Agree

 

[DUCK]

Yep, he isn’t as good as he thinks he is.

Please! Isn't he part of a threepete Premiership Winning spine? Yet you don't rate him? 🤔

Where have I said that?
I said to me he isn’t worth a million plus. I hope he’s not the player we are rumoured to have overspent on.

I'm asking our friend, who is light on possible solutions.

The Australian team will play shortly featuring many of the best players in the world. They are the solution to winning NRL games, ask yourself why they would most probably laugh if WT approached them. There’s your solution.
