I’d love to get Willison but he’s still a downgrade on Stef.
I think people underestimate how hard it is to perform at a high level at WT vs doing it at a top 4 club.

Bodes well for Luai and Turuva.

It does depend on whether he wants to stay or not. If he triggers the escape clause, then he can go the moment that happens as far as I care, but if he wants to stay and work for it, he is welcome and very much appreciated by me. FWIW I reckon he will stay.
Beg to differ my guy … but you do you .

Bit of a daft comparison.
How much would Willison bend the line if he was starting prop being asked to play 60 minutes for a Bottom-4 side? Teams would simply gang up on him.
There are lots of Broncos forwards who can ply trade, often aggressively or dynamically, because the Broncos never lack for class in the forwards and thr workload is spread. I am sure Stefano would love a hitup after Haas and Carrigan have taken the first two carries.

Glad some are now pointing out that Willison is having impact off the bench, in a very dominant squad.
Don't get me wrong- he is the exact type of bench impact we lack- but Utoikamanu is considered a potential SOO class player, for a reason.
We need a better rotation of players from the bench. We need better combinations to take advantage of the good players we have.
Utoikamanu might not be the greatest front rower in the NRL.
But he is by far the best forward we have.

So far this week I have seen 3 fullbacks I would swap Bula for. [Fuller, Talagai and Walsh]
We at Wests Tigers Live in hope!

Xavier Willison 22yrs,198cm,114 kg 2/08/2002.
Not a bad bench prop.

Staines has to have the lowest football iq of any football player. Bombed two tries and made a shocking read for Newcastles third try.
Really need to upgrade the outside backs positions immediately.

Throw in Stef and we can buy Bennett
Imo all 4 of them they need to try and move on. They are not up to it. We will never improve with guys like this in the side unfortunately.

You have watched our games? Surely you jest.
This whole thread is dedicated to recruitment. Yet whoever we recruit Dips in performance.
We need to be seeing players improve, through being a part of the Tigers system. Instead we see first graders become reserve graders. This ISN't a recruitment problem this is a training problem.
