Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

We have heard nothing , maybe the club is having trouble attracting quality for next year , or the players have demanded nothing is said until they are out of finals race with current club , or it’s A big suprise for the end of season break ,

Yes - now he has the perfect exit cause. Assuming he is on Ryles recruitment list.

Exactly , I mentioned it earlier he may want to play under Ryles but does the coach want him , I would say Stefs manager already new Ryles was getting the job late last week and they have spoken ,

Mentioned by whom? Have they even met?

Anyone care to clarify how Parra would be looking to pay Paulo and RCG 750k+ Each and add another Prop on around the same money....
When they're adding Lomax (Not cheap) to the squad they already have
- that is racing us for the Spoon?

Parra have too many 750k+ Players....
If he's going there, It's for 400k - MAX

Even if they get rid of Paulo or RCG - It's going to cost them.

Mentioned last week. In NRL rumours ,
have they met I have no idea but Ryles got the job last week , Parra held off the announcmeent , so maybe Stef manager has spoken to Ryles , maybe , I have no proof it’s just an assumption

Most of there starting 13 are on well over half a million

Fair enough.

And Tahne Milne from South’s remains unsigned.

He’s got that “Olam” vibe of being a natural grunt -massive strength and solid attitude. Another Fijian international.

He can run that ball back up relieving pressure on what I think will be younger forwards coming on for us next few years.

I can’t see us producing too much leg speed in years just ahead. I think our footy edge will come from feet, hands, line breaks, intensity and pressure.

Most of all, staying in the game a la Gold Coast.

Drop on focus cruelled the eels last night. It doesn’t take much. A couple of flakey moments and the good sides smash you.

Taane Milne was a Tiger few years ago, was released due to drug issue iirc

Ryles is probarbly managed by Isaac Moses as well. So if Steph goes to Parra that's another Moses player in their club. So that makes Manly and Parra teams bent over a barrell by Moses. So that's two clubs we don't need to compete against cause he will ruin them. Only player of concern he has with us is Galvin.

Steph is managed by Olaughlin , I think that’s his name . He was one of the managers along with Tartak who was involved in the sheens isn’t a good coach story from last year .

Why would a front rower want to play under the softest most overrated front rower of all time? Jason Ryles was the biggest myth in history. Maybe that's why Stef wants to play under him, no pressure to play tough. Every Dragons fan mate I have say Ryles was a terribly soft player.

..I also question his coaching capabilities...been hiding behind Bellyache forever so never really tested IMO,and like Benji and Barrett, has never really demonstrated on field as a player the attributes that wld make him a great coach???
Having said that,hes had a superb mentor for best part of a decade..but as Barrett showed,that can take u so far
Cant believe Eels didnt choose Hannay of that bunch,or better still Hornby who has worked under Bennett,doing a gr8 job at Souths,and has footy smarts
Blazer brigade..again

His first game against the Tigers when he was playing for the dragon's was a great game by him I was thinking this kid is going to have a great career

Reminder me of Tyson Frizell when he was playing centre for the Shark's

If we are losing Stef we certainly should be, but a fully focused Stef is a better player than both Saifiti brothers.
Like what many have been saying about Bula and I am starting to agree, Stef will be a much better player with more good quality aggressive players around him.

Well why isn't the dumb arse committing to stay, can't he see that he is still young, has time and that we are building.

Just lift your game and play to your ability instead of tanking and being a big sook, do something about building a legacy here if you actually believe in anything that you have said in the past.

Stef or Saifiti makes no difference to me, same mistakes, same dumb look, both as dumb as dog shit or so it seems with Stef being led around by the nose by his manager who's only interest is his cut of the contract dollars, no concern about trashing his clients reputation along the way.

I just assumed with the way it's been played out in the media it was Moses. Damn the managers have way too much power and clout. It's sad the players don't realise that the longer it goes on the more it's hurting them

Ryles also struggled at the Roosters as a coach from reports. They were happy to move him on.

Ryles gets the Parra coaches gig , time for Stef to make the call , it was mentioned Stef wants to play under Ryles , hear you go lad ,

Why would he want to play under Ryles? A rookie who he has never had any involvement with?

And a team that already has highly paid props like Paulo and RCG, and especially when his family has HATED Parra with every bone in their body since they destroyed the life of his brother.

WTF?

He's been sacked by three clubs, including us, for failing drugs tests and domestic violence issues.

One more strike and he's in jail, won't be in NRL much longer

Didn’t Stefano originally come to the Tigers (from Parramatta) because of the way Parramatta treated his brother?

I would have thought they were at long odds.
