Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Kelce68]

Not too long ago, Richardson mentioned that in the off-season, clubs shake the trees and see what falls out.

It's the first week of September, finals haven't even started yet and so far, we've seen Royce Hunt, Kobe Hetherington, Corey Horsburgh, Daniel Saifiti, Jack Bird and now Adam Elliot all become available.

I've no doubt there will be more, decent names to fall out of the tree between now and February.

I hope we don't rush to spend the dollaridoos in the next fortnight...

If you read my immediate post right after that you’d know that was sarcasm.

What makes you so sure about this one ?

Hard to get excited by a rumour that seems far fetched but his 200 running metres per game and 127 tackle breaks would instantly make us a competitive outfit.

Especially
If you add Galvin at 6 and Luai at 7 !

Or when the same poster said Benji told him Moses will be at Tigers in 2024

Too right, the media fawn over Robbo like he is the second coming of Jack Gibson or the like. Most coaches would excel with his roster every year, Robbo in my opinion has under achieved

Not with who he has lost.

Look Robbo has had a good squad. But not a brillant one.
Tedesco is top level and he has a good halves pairing in Keary/Walker. Easts have lost a fair bit of it's forward pack and were showing signs of trouble. Somehow he steer'd that ship right.

He is no Jack Gibson or Wayne Bennett. But the guy clearly can coach.

Just look at Anthony Siebold with a good squad, now there is a guy who can't coach.

Do clubs still even do back ended deals? They are recipes for disaster.

The I thought the NRL banned them

On behalf of all WT fans, please never post with Douhei in the team again.

Fantasy line-ups never work a season out... Team
can look a lot different with one signing or release

 

[Kaito]

Injuries etc. Too hard to pick a team right now smh

 

[hsvjones]

I see Hunt is calling for Tigers to add Horsburgh as they would make a great team together as they both don't back down.

Good to see recruits trying to get other there as well. Starting to like Hunt already

 

[Odessa]

Heard it here first, to’o to tigers is done!!!!

Which forward did they get ?

Unfortunately Tito I think you’ll find he will be somewhere around the team, so you’ll just have to grin and bear it !
