Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Have you guys thought about children's books? They love fantasy. Plus. There is money in it.

Easy money too!

id argue the doogs were worse then us this time last year

luai will be fine, he'll back himself to transform the team, unlike our pillow prop who just left

Bulldogs had kikau, burton, mahoney, addo-carr. We only have Api and potentially Ice as a 'great' player. Bateman, Klemmer are both washed and ageing. Stefano is overrated. Coach sucks. The only shining light is our juniors. We need a big prop to lead them and a defensive centre to stop leaking tries

next year we need to promote Willet and makasini

I watched a fair bit of navreen up here when he was with taree, he wouldn't have been any worse than that flog we had on the wing yesterday

Just trawled over to the Dogs forum, what a bunch of wankers they are. But what I just thought about now, imagine the regret luai is having now signing for a team that will win 3 spoons in a row, over joining his mate at the dogs in 2025 who has helped transform them into a top 5 team in one year with a capable coach. Probably counting the money now...

Jason Taylor joining them has done wonders

 

[Tucker]

I’m out all.

I can’t watch these pricks anymore.

I just do it for the LOL's for now.
That try on halftime yesterday was a great laugh.

It could end up being the worst signing a player has ever made

Any chance the rumour of Dylan Walker coming here next year is true?

Probably.
Id prefer a 25 year old to be honest.

Mate i dont think its that easy attracting players, so no announcements i would think, but who knows with this club.

I see all the players mentioned on this forum to fix our centres/wing positions and how good they are etc. BUT what if they just don't want to be here? They have better opportunities elsewhere.
How do we attract improvements? Pay overs OR sign those approaching their use by dates. Shop further down the pecking order?
Not that straight forward to plug the holes we desperately need.
Short term difficult!................Longer term we must identify younger talent and expand that talent in the lower grades. We are working on this I know. It is a BIG juggle to do this on a tight budget, that is why talent scouts must be very good at their job. And takes time. Successful clubs do it routinely.

Warriors & Walker have denied he wants a release, take it for what its worth.

Thanks

Even if he leaves … why would he come here ?

think he is pretty well thought of in Manly and has a good history there

 

[Eternal Tiger]

Both starting props played 50 minutes to Api's 80 minutes, so there is that.

Klemmer defended well, again. There's just a narrative around here that he isn't putting in.

I don't think he doesn't put in, I just think he's ineffective. Time has passed him by.

Dylan Walker or Jack Williams, surely we can land one!

Best mates with Api is our only hope

 

[Tom Shines]

I knew that would be what people would say …

If Api is really his best mate ,., he should be telling him to go back to Manly instead of coming and being miserable with him at the Tigers

 

[Tiger Stripes]

I don't think he doesn't put in, I just think he's ineffective. Time has passed him by.

His defence is OK, but taking the ball up is pedestrian and predictable how it ends.

Wow, Api is friends with everyone, and all of Fiji.

You can’t recruit what is not available.
I’ve got a feeling we are trying to sign Jack Williams as our 13 and although he is 28y.o he is playing as good if not better than ever, he keeps himself in good physical condition and always plays with high intensity.
He is the type of player that would improve us.

Ideally, both.
