Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

You’ve got to be joking.

Even paps himself said he’s been a disappointment.

Given his potential, he’s spent most of his time with us on holiday or making sure his socks were pulled up.

We don’t want him anywhere near this club, infecting the fragile minds of our talented youth.

@BZN nailed it.

Not reaching his heights at Parra here is different to taking the piss.
 
I was initially a big fan of the possibility of signing Tallis Duncan as he nearly always hits top speed quickly when running the bal, shows ability to play as a first receiver style 13 and his defensive stats always look very good.
But when watching him closely his defence is predominantly arm grabbing, very minimal hard shoulder impact and he is a very lazy defender often not making any effort to get back in the defensive line or work from marker which was evident when Talyn Da Silva went straight past him a few times recently.
I would now steer clear of him as he has too many areas of his game that need a lot of improvement, we have plenty of our own in that scenario, our new recruits need to be more complete players.

I think the message rich sent about strengthening all grades is something to keep in mind here. Some of the players we end up being linked to are going to be for cup so we shouldn't jump up and down until we know

I couldn't disagree more
3 consecutive spoons in nrl and the loss of 3 of our best forwards means we have to focus on the main grade,or we will shred our brand

I expected the stout rebuke, but in the broad, given his season before his arrival he’s been nothing short of an abomination.

If he had any chops he’d be sending us a bank cheque inscribed with a meaningful refund of some sort.

Bait and switch, watch him come to his senses next year and beyond.

He’s not the only one, I’ll grant you that indulgence.

Cmon, he'd be the first outside back picked. He'd be our starting fullback without a shadow of a doubt. Bula to centre/wing.

Sua is best mates with Pole, if there's any chance he leaves we should be all over it, though he only recently re-signed with the Mexicans

How's he going tonight?

Now you are starting to see whose fault that is.

Top sides have shown that mobility in the pack is better in today's game than size. You need a balance for sure but I'll say for certain we can't entertain having guys like Knight, Hazelton, Saifiti even NAS if they are partnering Klemmer in the front row. The best 8, 10, 13 combo we have had this year is Pole + Sione F + Stef.
I agree we need to bolster the pack, but not with another big lump to replace stef, we have plently of those.
We need a dynamic athlete who can give you 40 high octane minutes over two stints.
The Spencer Leniu mould would be ideal. We need a greased up pig not a giant Clydesdale.
