Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Someone “suggesting “ the same guy like Royce Hunt for the eightieth time gets a little tired Chadster …just saying

We do support a team that is extremely one dimensional and very rarely scares the opposition.
Players such as NAS and Royce Hunt would go along way towards changing that perception would if not ?

You can’t medically retire someone unless it’s a new injury. Everyone knew his knee was cooked but we signed him for 3 years anyway.

That’s how I thought it worked.
But some teams seem to find a way?

Interesting how almost no players ever get rumoured to be of interest to WT.

Richo supposedly tells the players he is negotiating with that the offer will be withdrawn if it becomes publicised.

NAS is coming here apparently …so I can get behind that …

There is nothing to suggest Hunt is coming here l..so it’s a pipe dream although it’s repeated here every day

Any injury whether it was previously known about or not can be reason to medically retire a player.
In Olam’s case the most recent news of NAS potentially coming with the intention of playing alongside him again, possibly means there is no intention of him being medically retired.

It seems to make zero sense to me …that they would permit him to be medically retired without at least trying surgery as an option first …

Agree but not even the journo's even mention players as possibly being on WT radar

Isnt it that Olam does not want to do the surgery?

haven’t heard that … they were trying to get by on plasma injections but that’s now run its course….and obviously hasn’t worked ….. it was reported in the media that “clean out surgery” was an option. ..the article didn’t say he was reluctant to have the surgery

He stated that himself during his BTR interview.

Can’t say I recall him ever saying that ,,,

Is this the one where he also stated that we are a development club and only need a player or two externally to compete the squad ? You don’t seem to want to listen to that though do you?

I’m sure he has in the past (Maybe towards the end of his storm contract or during offseason?), said that he wasn’t keen to have surgery and was going to try everything else available to manage the injury. And I believe the plasma injections were one of the options.

Well, I guess you could just choose not to read the thread if it triggers you that much.

Thanks for your concern Chadster …but I’ll be fine …

Do you ?
There is more chance of pigs flying than there is of Wests Tigers getting off the bottom of the NRL ladder, unless they recruit at least 4-5 quality NRL players.
