Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Iv got a mate who's a midget and he doesn't care what people call him.

Haha. Yeah heard that term (short statured) the other day on a radio interview.

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

Hethrington told he can look around, I like his mongrel. If we can nab two of him, Saifiti or Solomona then we did ok if Steph leaves. Both Melbourne and Newcastle would be paying freight.

I wouldn't mind him he has a go but has the Naden brain snap in him too.

Klemmer MkII ?

Way worse figures than Klem was producing.

 

[Spacecub]

Townsend to Roosters being reported , Rooster to dogs confirmed , where is the ? To the Tigers .
Stefano re signs , Hunt to add to Tigers Pack , anything , something ,, we can’t survive on the kids coming through alone , we need players of nrl standard added urgent , at least 3 on top of Luai and Turuva , Richo needs to pull his finger out or we will be doing the same as every year going over the scraps that no one wants

A definite improvement on our previous ceo, but so far all I've heard from richo is a lot of talk,and racking up frequent flyer points time will tell I guess

 

[Tim Sheens]

The reason they want to punt him is because he's not making metres and therefore not earning his big pay packet.

Sounds very familiar.

Uncle Nick has purchased a ton of realestate in and around Bondi Junction and all the earnings go to the football club and will continue to happen once the fairy godfather passes away….So I was told by a guy who was a sprint trainer for the Chooks

He said years ago that he wanted ti leave the club wit a minimum of 50 million in investment property. He also said that NRL clubs that relied on poker machines revenue would die off in ten years time! He’s a complete dick, but knows his shit, most creeps do…

A few names that I'd have a look at:

Kotoni Staggs (if Cobbo re-signs won't leave much $$$ for Staggs at the donkeys)
Ronaldo Mulitalo (not much else in terms of proven quality outside backs off contract)
Teig Wilson (nephew of John Morris too)
Connelly Lemuelu
Another middle - Oregon Kaufusi, Tui Kamikamica, Griffin Neame, Davvy Moale, Xavier Willison

I am a big fan of Teig Wilton. Definitely one I hope we look at if Sharks don’t extend him

 

[liltiger]

I wouldn't mind him he has a go but has the Naden brain snap in him too.

Don't know if we have the coaching staff available to help him temper his aggression. Morris was ok with younger players at Cronulla wasn't he. If we could keep him in check he might be a great pick up.

Some of yous need to calm down

A few months ago the forum went into melt down cause we didn’t sign James Schiller and were “sitting around waiting not pursuing options” then guess what happened we signed Sunia Turuva who on his worst day is still miles clear of Schiller

Right now cap space is not the issue it’s more the fact that we have no roster spots for next year

Richo is trying to move people on but it hard when they are tied to long term deals by previous management

If people in the forum seriously think that our recruitment team are sitting around waiting and not looking at all available options then your just stupid

 

[Moh]

I see the Roosters granted another exception to bring in that Union guy after the Olympics.

i bet he'd mind if you call him late for dinner

So the Knights are way overs on the salary cap next year …. Need to let three players go totalling $2m…. But apparently are still trying to recruit Blaize Talagi next year ?😑

Someone help me understand

It's not that confusing- they want to let players go to sign other players. That's the same thing every club is doing

 

[Feline Carrier]

Squad full of champs. Reminds me of this little ditty:

Yeah champ
Thanks champ
Righto champ
Good on ya champ
Jog on champ
I'll bet champ

I don't know champ, what do you think?!
I don't know champ, what do you think?!

Stef's a champ
You're a champ
Johnny's a champ
Lee's a champ
Pascoe's a champ
Nofo's a champ

Champs as far as the eye can see
Everyone's a champ except for me

Good luck to them then …they are pushing it uphill with Blaize I think

Seyfarth, Hethrington & Horsburgh what a combo with a measured attitude

We might finally have s pack that could bash blokes finally, they'd only be on the pitch togeather once but how good would it be to have a Tigers pack maul an opposition.

 

[Mccarry]

I was just looking up Klemmer. He is only 31! Is it just me or is it a little surprising such a dominate Prop in his prime had such an early end to his career.

It's his rapid decline in physical presence that makes me hesitate to look at Saifiti or Solomona. Both were incredible players in their day (like Klemmer) but chances are we end up with another Klemmer.

 

[Wiz]

Klemmer’s body shape is not conducive to a long and dominant career. His weight is distributed over too much body thereby reducing his power.

 

[weststigers]

Is Klese Haas still unsigned for 2025?
