Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

100% correct

We were not strong in defence and that would lead to more players needed in the tackles and even then we could not get them on the ground and led to six again calls, penalties or breaks being made around the ruck as we had gaps in the defensive line trying to retreat.

Royce Hunt is supposedly one of or if not the strongest at the Sharks and hopefully he can improve the strength of the team with his training efforts along with a new S&C teams. If we can hold the teams in defence along with the improvement of the back three making good return metres then we should see improvement.

Jerome Luai will know how to close out games which we couldn't do well for many games this year and talks non stop which our team needs to remain focused.

Rest up fellow Wests Tiger Tragic's and fingers crossed we can look forward to possible additional signings before the start of Pre-season in November.

Not confident luai can close out games. Nathan is there for the clutch moments. Luai hasn't done it yet

Pretty sure he did it in state of origin this year.

64th minute isn't clutch. Although it was 4-2 so fair enough. Nathan consistently delivers in the last 10 minutes and golden point. So far we've seen luai throw a game in the final 10 minutes vs canberra. Didn't step up vs storm either when cleary went off

It doesn’t matter what minute it is. It’s about stepping up on the big stage when your team needs it. Benji’s grand final flick pass wasn’t in the last 10 minutes but it changed the game to our favour.

Yeah I know. But the word 'clutch' means right at the end. 16 minutes left is not right at the end. The pressure in final moments, particularly when behind is what makes a great player

You want to fix your calculator,
Can't see how those figure's add up to an average 60 minutes per game, more like 36.4.
Or I've misunderstood you and the scale you have shown.

I was sceptical regarding X and his comment about Stef playing 60mins. So I googled the stats and as your calculation has confirmed Stef only averaged 36.4mins. So we only need Royce to get through 40mins a game to replace stef.

Quote from Richo I believe

Start doing what the fans want you to and it won’t be long before you’re sitting with them.

Fair enough, I get the sentiment though imo it's been obvious this year that Pole should have been our priority, maybe in time and under Bellamy Stephano will prove me wrong.

Ricky knew all about Adam Elliot’s close family and the issues they had there.

I stand by the Ricky, he looks and sounds like a feral pig who is hungover, but underneath, he’s a total genius.

He wouldn’t have lost spoon bowl that’s for sure.

A total genius probably would not be in the position where his team was playing off in a spoon bowl. 🤣

That is not a richo quote it's from Jack Gibson many decades ago

It may have been appropriate in Jack Gibson’s day, but does it really apply today?
Being a fan is a prerequisite to getting on our 3 boards. It may even be a mandatory if you want to conduct an independent review of WT. 😂
