Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Naden’s a sad case because he can play, he’s just shown us far too many times that letting his teammates down doesn’t seem to bother him.

I honestly cannot recall Naden having a good game at the Tigers ..

He can’t even claim the one good game like Toa can last year versus the Cowboys

 

[Tom Shines]

He’s probably still 2-3 years off his physical peak.

i wonder where he will be then

Did West Tigers recruitment team do their homework on Bud Sullivan before they rushed out and signed him?? No is the answer because if they did, they would have realized Bud is nothing more than an overrated inconsistent footballer and nothing will change that.

Desperate signing because we had no halves, he was immediately surplus when Luai signed. Former management were signing players to save face.

Brent Naden is 29 years old in December.

He's played 72 first grade games across three clubs.

I think the dream is over for him, sadly.

It was over when he got busted before the grand final, he needs a payout sorry meant pay off.

He has good moments but his attitude lets him down in my opinion.

The dream is never over 😎

What evidence is there that it’s his dream to play rugby league? Whether it’s off field or on field ill discipline, he’s blown plenty of chances.

He can live out his dream,

In England or some Group # competition.

Never give up Naden!

The argument is not about whether or not he should be replaced with a better player from 2025 onwards.
My argument is based on the fact he is a better player, has better qualities and has performed significantly better for our NSW Cup team than others who still continue to be selected ahead of him and continue to heavily contribute to our NRL losses.
How does punishing a player as well as his NRL team mates and WT fans by leaving him languish in NSW Cup regardless of form help us offload him for 2025 ?

Naden and Kotoni Staggs have family ties via Wellington NSW. Being unprofessional about the situation does not paint the club in a good light if thinking of chasing players such as Staggs.

He cost us games earlier in the year and obviously the coaches decided he wasn’t meeting the standards they were trying to set. I tend to think it’s the right decision.

The winger on the weekend is out of his depth in rugby league, but he’s a first year project.

You can teach positional play, a poor attitude is much harder.

If he played centre instead of Douhei we probably
win that game yesterday. There was zero connection
in defence outside of Samuela but I'm not the coach

I don't know what Benji is going to do in these last
few rounds bro but it's going 2 B telling that's 4 sure

Benji might still be pissed at him. Didn't he get sin
binned on his return game from suspension? Lmao

Yes we lost several close games with him making school boy errors and Ill discipline plays. Went into touch four times in one game. Only has himself to blame.

I'd be resting S Fainu why risk a serious injury when the season is a write off?

The week to week grind of the NRL would be a lot for a young lad.

Bula, Pole & Samuela have been top.3 no doubt
I don't think I would rest him I think he's loving it

While I'm happy naden is leaving he's a better defensive centre than adam. Not that the bar is that high
