Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[jrtiger]

So we finally have an ounce of respect from player managers and from a recruitment perspective, an element we have been weak in forever, and the club make moves that will remove the newly appointed recruitment manager.

I do believe if Lee goes fulton goes, which will set the club back for another decade.

your idolisation of Fulton is pathetic, to the point where you believe that an external review after two straight spoons could somehow be a bad thing.

yes Fulton has relationships with managers and players, but so does every other recruitment manager in the game. wake up.

 

[Odessa]

Haha My God, that’s even worse. Could you imagine the Storm, when Bellamy’s time is up replacing him with someone who they concede don’t know if they can coach? People wonder why we are where are.

I think Melbourne would go Billy Slater or an old Bellamy boy some who understands Melbourne football

Today's the day! It's the 8th!
Mistanon promised that today we will hear the big announcement re Luai.
What will happen? Will Mistanon be vindicated or will we be teased with a new date like his brother Qanon is famous for.
Only the sands through hourglass will provide the answer.

He’s already moved the goal posts to the 12th.

Nice words, but does not address years of weak recruitment at tiger land.

You also make up that I've met Fulton. Who does that.

Take your own advice clown.

Very Qanon approved procedure.

 

[Nonotmeagain]

Can’t be much. Not too many clubs in any sport who are backed by a millionaire are perennial cellar dwellers.

Detroit Lions in the NFL - their losing streak goes back nearly 70 years.

 

[Nonotmeagain]

Best story I heard about sportsman’s money came from Gordon Tallis on the telly one day.
When he started getting decent sized footy contracts his Mum said if he wasn’t playing football he’d be a labourer, so he he had his various clubs pay him roughly a labourers wages, and hold the rest.
As he got towards the end of his career he was able to retrieve some sizeable coin that set him up in a new house etc.
Gordon’s Mum knew best eh, wise old lady !
Whilst Lucas got paid $70k pw but probably spent about double that living the EPL dream.
Now that’s all he’s left with, memories. And now we know why he is reclusive about Socceroo reunions and Oz visits, he’s ashamed of himself and what he’s done.

Not the only person who had a lot and lost it - thinking the party would never end.

Capewell immediate release to the Warriors

https://www.news.com.au/sport/nrl/warriors-sign-capewell-as-stars-immediate-broncos-exit-confirmed-nrl-transfer-centre/news-story/9f058f9e8f784c290404a9ae272573cc

Sharks, Panthers and Broncos all made the grand final while Capes was on their roster. Wahs grand final birth, either next year or next.

 

[Nonotmeagain]

Pissed off about that one. Not just for the
wallabies but for us too. I was talking him
up on here ages ago. Local Burwood boy,
went to St Pats Strathfield, played for the
Burwood Concord Wolves. It sucks the
chooks got him. Although it doesn't
surprise me one bit haha. They share the
same facilities at Moore Park with the Tahs
too. Politis would have been all over it...
shame. Would have loved him on the wing
at our club, heard there's a clause to go back
to rugby for the 2027 world cup, the deal
at the roosters is for 2025-2026 seasons

By the time 27 comes around he'll be long forgotten in rugby - there'll be plenty of others in his place over the next 2 years. If Sualilii kicks on and Korobiete stays he won't get a look in - he'll stay at the Roosters.

 

[pawsandclaws1]

I'm just saying there is more to recruit than just benji.

That may be so but the coach has the final say and that occurs in the private and public sectors when the CEO, Secretary or Director General has the final say. We all know the deal when we sign on.

weak recruitment in tiger land as you call it is to do with years of poor performances and infighting. who on earth would want to come here with what we've served up the last 11 years? and yet you don't want a review because of a recruitment manager that has done what exactly?

apologies on the meeting Fulton thing, I had that mixed up with another poster. regardless though, your obsession is nonsensical. the bloke is leaking information on a weekly basis to his godfather and publicly and privately undermining our head coach, yet you continue to vouch for him and our chairman, who is entirely out of his depth.

Suaalii will be back at the Roosters one nanosecond after his ridiculous Union contract expires …

he will hate every second of Union and will be the new whipping boy there next 3 years

 

[Spacecub]

Aaaaand here we go.

We have been used again to inflate a marquee players contract elsewhere haha.

I have no doubt he will stay with Penrith

I never thought for one minute he was leaving Penrith it's all about fishing theses days to get your club to cough up a bit more

 

[Wiz]

Despite them conceding at the start of last year that they didin't know if he could coach.

AFTER giving him the 5 year contract.

 

[Nonotmeagain]

Yeah club is going great, we plan so well that our recruitment manager and our coach don't like each other so one is bagging the other every chance he gets.

He needs to pull his head in, if he can't do that then he needs to go along with those that appointed him.

The latest news on recruitment was that pascoe took the lead on negotiations - just speculation.

 

[Nonotmeagain]

Great planning.

Have either said that's the case ??

Absolutely! And they can take their 5 year plan and apply it somewhere else!

Very Qanon approved procedure.

Qanon followers are once again posting that "the storm is coming".

They don't have a great track record with their predictions, but could it be a reference to Olam signing with the Tiges?!

I'm simply saying I am pleased with the improvement in recruitment

I have concerns about recruitment if fulton leaves

Don't twist my words.

 

[hank37w]

Its a rumours thread, who cares if they don’t eventuate.

If it was just a signings thread we would probably still be on page 1 instead of 10,269.
