Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I don’t reckon there’s a Tiger fan out there who’s not over loosing. I had five blokes laughing at me yesterday bcoz I go for the Tigers, and one of them was a bloody AFL fan. But he still knew we were shite.
It’s painful.
I just say to people that someone has to come last , and as a loyal support I just hang in there , that takes the wind out of there agenda
 
Hope not. Waste of $$$ and roster spot. Wouldn’t crack the 17.
Blake Lawrie, he looks like he has been playing overweight for season after season if he was to come to us he would go straight into the fat club, to get him fit he would end up at under a 100kg and probably not enough impact, my thoughts a strong no way.
 
Taking Lawrie might be the only way we can get rid of Klemmer given the Dragons have 30 players signed and it doesn’t look like the Molo situation will be resolved anytime soon.

Klemmer was in line to make $1.1m over the next two years (per Chammas). If we got Lawrie for those two years for around $600k that’s a big win IMO as it frees up $500k of salary cap space and that position/roster spot is being paid in line with output I.e. the value is right.

If we take Lawrie it wouldn’t be for 1 season. We don’t get an upgrade roster wise. It’s a backwards move. I doubt he signs for a minimum contract so cap wise it will hardly be a win.

We have Klemmer and are paying him this season, it’s clear we won’t for next season as we have zero intention to play him, if we agree to Lawrie it helps the Dragons out more than us as Molo is gone anyway.

Hopefully we continue to remain patient and see it out for the right roster upgrade move.

Agree totally if we were to swap with Lawrie this would be a poor trade, better off keeping Klemmer, I can't believe that Richo would touch this with a ten-foot pole if they do the club hasn't learnt a thing.
 
Really?
Lawrie is absolute garbage
- fat, lazy and useless!!
I’ve never seen more wraps on such a god awful footballer - it’s almost Jurbo like….
And he went on national TV and bagged his previous coach - imagine how he’d go with ours…

On a 1-10 performance level, wherever you rate Klemmer, Lawrie is 15 behind that. Klemmer isn’t being moved because there’s nowhere in the 17 for him, the same way Bateman wasn’t moved on for it…
So... what you're saying is you don't like Blake Lawrie?
 
I look em dead in the eye and say, “are you even a member of your shit club?
Yep, you’re a real fan.” And walk.
It would be nice if we’d just stop loosing.
Most other fans I know don't put shit on us. I find I spend more time explaining to Parra, doggies and Roosters fans that they don't know what bad looks like. Literally only Penrith fans should be gloating. Simple answer to everyone else is enjoy your choke. And we are uniquely placed with pamfers fans to say it helps when you steal a coach you scummy sacks of so and so

Went through this exact same situation last week lol

Unless the player has expressed his concerns to the Coach
(Were the whispers last year that Bateman wasn't alone and it was also Klemmer)
and it has been decided that coach knows best - Worked for John.

So what do you do in this instance back the players or back the coach? I don't think it's a coincidence that the senior players (the regular underperformers) are the ones that seem to be upset with Benji.
