Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Navren Willett on his way to the Tigers tomorrow…

Heard a lot about this kid from locals in the area, very talented

the media links us to every big name player .. don’t get too carried away with what it all means …

Ok. So, if you’re saying we’re not chasing Manu and or Welsby, who are we chasing? Any 18yo rugby players from Ireland?

Yes, McDonnell was a issac Moses man even though issac only gave him his off cuts.

Isaac Moses needs a few upper cuts.

We did sign Api, Ice, Klemmer and Bateman a year ago. Something tells me the problems run deeper.

Yes, but that was 2 years ago, for Ice at least followed by a year of speculation and media stories. We just need to follow Lee's advice and be more aggressive, maybe extend Nofo for a couple of years.

I reckon he is right

He may be right but he certainly isn't saying it with Luai's best interest in mind. The guy is an A Class ahole who looks out for no one but himself and his son.

He’s a great example of why you never idolise anyone connected to the club. When he was here, there was not a more beloved figure in the history of the club, The love for him was so over the top. Then he did what he did. He blew up the club, almost to the point it was sabotage.

Thoughts on Ivan coming out in the media warning clubs on considering if luai is a main man 1m play maker?

I reckon it's a very gentle nudge out the door.
What he said was not overly disparaging of Luai, but it certainly comes from a position of arrogance.
Basically put's the ball in Luai's court, you think you're good enough? ok go see how good you are, see if you can handle the pressure. See if you're any better than, Capewell, Kikau, Cricthon, Api...
Otherwise stay here, where it's comfortable and we'll pay you what we think you're worth.
When you've won 3 straight you don't have to grovel on hands and knees everytime a contract negotiation comes up.

Like I have said …. The media links them to every big name player …if true or not … it doesn’t really matter as they never end up signing them …

My advice would be to worry about how it might impact on Bula after it happens ..i would say right now that there is a 99 percent chance that if fit he will be the starting fullback Round 1

Would you stop eating apples because you found one bad apple in the barrel? He did leave Brooks open ended, it was left to Madge to tie him up. So he had our ceo and board convinced.

Someone has clearly seen all the offical offers. Imagine how insufferable this prick would be if he was the highest player in the game. Jesus Christ.

He destroyed our cap.

Didn't think Ivan comments would g9 down too well.

Thanks for the advice 😂 but I’ll leave it to you to worry about Bula’s feelings.

Excellent post.

Def strange comments from Cleary.

Basically "can he be the man? I don't know".

It likely will motivate Luai to say "hell yeah" and act as an excuse to leave.

Strange comments if he really wants to keep him.

 

[hank37w]

Just thought strange for a coach of a player 2 say

Not a big fan of Luai but I thought that was a pretty low act by Ivan to come out and say that.

Definitely looks like a case of if you don't get on the bus for what we are offering then I'll do my best to throw you under it.
