Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[twentyforty]

At this point in time, and until proven otherwise, I am much more likely to believe that it is not that the players don’t WANT to listen to Benji- more like the players in question are simply not capable of consistently doing what is being asked of them. This includes ill discipline and game management.

Are those players young and inexperienced? Or are they experienced and played finals footy at other clubs?

A few days ago, in response to comments, I posted some thoughts on why some of our ex players look better in other sides. However I’d make the distinction between the ones you just mentioned- Blore, Brooks & Garner - and the players currently being bandied around- Sullivan, Naden, Staines, AJ, etc. The latter our unlikely to look good anywhere at anytime, while the former are genuine players with arguably better skills and quality about them, who for a whole host of reasons couldn’t achieve their form at the Tigers.

It was the top of my head.. believe it or not I have a life.... im talking about our success or lack thereof..... and not for a whole host of reasons, the players that do become and are good - leave....

What we are short of at the moments are class backs. Centre and maybe another winger. Who are the best players in the UK at the moment in those positions?

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Albo? That's your call name . You are suspicious already..

Innes Senior

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Sign him up..... Richo you listening... forum got it all sorted....

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

I understand when people are disappointed with the club and bag it but I really can't fathom comments like this that actively WANT the club to fail.

would love him to stay but if you were his manager you do not sign an extension with tigers you go to market

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Depends what the manager gets out of it...

 

[Demps]

Tim Lafai, worth a punt?
Good connection with Luai in the world cup.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Under a good system. Yes. How is he going right now?

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

You see brother. The system makes the player... the player does not make the team...unless it Benji....

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Under a good system. Yes. How is he going right now?

North of 30 and hasn’t played first grade in 3 years. Those sorts of signings always work out for us.

Innes and Louis Senior both signed two-year contracts with Castleford yesterday would you believe it.

unless there’s NRL clauses written into the deal I’d say there’s next to no chance of the former is being courted by Richo as we speak.

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Maybe an early release coming

Warriors stand down $1m prop Fonua-Blake for skipping team song​

For not singing the team song .. such a thickhead moment

Without Doubt, we have had multiple coaches over the past decade plus and nothing changes. It is not the coach, it is the roster. We have a lot of player with a very low ceiling who can throw and catch 200 passes a day and still drop the money ball in the game. We can also get the best sports mind doctor in to help them make good decisions but the likes of Naden will still make dumb plays.

Nothing will change till the quality and depth of our roster is 100% better than it is now

AJ Brimson extends until 2030

Shame it wasn't with us.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Shame it wasn't with us.

We extended Twal till end of 27. That’s almost the same.

 

[hank37w]

No more clones... no such thing....

We only sign clowns. 🤡

 

[Odessa]

They still have valid contracts.

Was told Bateman back to England at seasons end and Naden gone as well at seasons end

 

[hank37w]

They still have valid contracts.

They could always do what Tevita Pangai Jr did and walk away from their contracts to make their fortune in boxing instead. 🤣 🤣 🤣

Worked really well for him and that would work really well for us.
