Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

So has Naden.
Centre stock is really low when we are debating who we prefer out of them two.
Bird is the word for me, I guess, his best and worst games are not as far apart. Where as Naden, he is like a box of chocolates with to many Turkish delights, or bullets, or he is more like pumpkin covered in chocolate. Anyway I think you get where I’m coming from; we need better centre depth so we don’t have to crappy chocolates.
Buttface if naden was all Turkish delight and bullets he would be perfect. I think you need to work on your analogies a bit more mate.
 
Report says sharks Will Kennedy could leave due to $ , they only have $ 300 to offer him , could he play centre for us , he is quick and can defend , $ 550 gets him I think
He is an incredible player. Would love to see him in a Tigers jersey.

That said, he would get at least $0.8m at the Eels.
 
Bird started the season well but there's definitely been a drop in the past few weeks. I just don't think he's offering much at all of late. It's a shame because I thought he'd do well in that ball-playing 13 role, but he's just not strong enough in the middle.

I think he's been alright there but I think injuries and bench rotation have exposed him. I think the coaching staff have struggled with their timing of substitutions.
 
This, the guy is depth at best in a good team. The guy wouldn’t even sniff a top 17 spot in any top 8 team unless they had an injury crisis. Seyfarth has literally cost us games and almost given others with his piss port discipline. The issue is he has little to no competition for that spot and

Reality is we had certain posters on here who latched on to him early because they saw his one 50 tackle game from three years ago and now use that as the reason why they think he’s a good player while ignoring 95% of his career where he has been below average These people refuse to entertain the idea that they may have been wrong about him despite all evidence showing that they are. Hell, we had a poster claim we didn’t need ANGUS CRICHTON because we had Seyfart so that’s the level of delusion we’re dealing with from that camp. Funnily enough, it’s the same posters who defended Brooks till the very end so take that for what it’s worth.

While that poor excuse of a second rower is starting in our team, we will always be limited.
Duh!! We are in the top eight.
 
Agree
But at this point we have no one better to replace him with.
Hoping one day we can afford to have Seyfarth, Staines and Naden all as reserves meaning our squad would be much stronger than it is now.
We are building just need IMO
another 2 seasons to get there.
With the new teams into the NRL, players will be in greater demand than they are now. Those players you mentioned will be playing NRL. Player managers are going to love the expansion.
 
agree with most of the words you said there mate . I’ve also got a few friends in clubs outside Sydney , and they’ve investigated into seyfarth and have been told he doesn’t want to leave Sydney .

That could be bullshit , it sounds true . I know he’s valued around the nrl .
But like you said , he’s not a top second rower in the nrl.i never once said he was . Just that he’s valued , very similar to my opinion of Brooks when he was here . Is there better out there ? Of course , but does he do a job and is he undervalued ? Yes to both those as well.
This whole convo about seyfarth started because I said our fan base has ridiculous expectations regarding KPP, in that he’s not good enough for us .
Just because I value the guy doesn’t mean I’m Obtuse to his limitations, and standing in the game .
Both things can be right at one time .
That last line about mediocrity is horse shit though , and undermines your whole post . Nobody is endorsing mediocrity .
He’s a decent footy player who can play in the middle and on the edge . A former nsw u19s rep , and valued personality around the club . In a perfect world he’s your 17th man / 18th man . That’s where I value him .
But he’s doing a good job right now in that edge , and I give credit where credit is due . Something many people on here are unwilling to have . Opinions that are fluid , and applicable to the situation today .
Seyfarth worst backrower in the NRL
 
I understand all the talk about droping bird , but calling out Sukkar
and saying he has to step up and show his worth is a HUGE call.
Aint gonna happen.
He is not cut out for first grade NRL....PERIOD!!
I was originally anti KPP based on the Magic round game I watched him in. However I think the "Ordinary Form" shown in that game was mostly due to the coaches instructions to be a decoy runner and defend out wide.
It probably pissed him off to a degree to not put in the 1%'s.
Now, after reading others comments and with better coaching he has much more "Potential" than Sukkar on his displays.
Not against his inclusion for Sukkar, KPP, Seyfarth, Fainu, Twal can fight it out for the 2nd row / lock positions.
