Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[The Chad]

Siliva Havili's another one worth looking at if we are to lose Da Silva for next year. similar mould. would be happy with either.

You'd think Wayne would try to keep him- he's featured quite a bit this season. But I agree- good player.

 

[magpies forever]

Alimoti stuck in cup.

I’d be looking into that.

No to Cobbo. He is too fat

Cobbo is a QLD boy- he loves taking breaks to his home town at Cherbourg. Sydney and NSW in general would be too far and disruptive. Agree Alimoti is a good one to have a crack at.

I'm surprised he's still off contract, because I agree. hopefully we're in the mix.

Freddy Lussick can't get a run at the Warriors....fits that small #13/backrower & fill-in #9 role perfectly.

Went really well last season at the Warriors. Low risk, high return?

that’s a goooood shout

 

[The Chad]

.

Sorry …why to we need a small backrower again ?

This guy is a shrimp

Funny you should say that.

This guy has literally been playing Prop in the KOE side some weeks. #13 as well. #9 the last 3-4 weeks or so.

Very versatile & plays first receiver when not playing dummy half.

Odd little player, but surprisingly effective.

The idea is- versatile enough to ALSO cover for Api at #9 while still offering other uses.

Thank you Sir. 😛

Alamoti would be a good signing.

How about Pole at 13 ?

Hooker possibly … but not back row/ 13 …we need more size IMO… we lose both sides of the ruck most weeks …. Im not sure he helps that

We are playing Latu at #13 at times.

Lussick is just that versatile guy that fills a few needs. Not really any smaller than Connor Watson.

80 minute player, playing at prop in the KOE some weeks. #13 other weeks. But ALSO plays first receiver in their attack. Almost like Yeoh in how he is used.

But ALSO plays #9. Was a big part of the Warriors top squad last season at #9 and did well.

Yeah Havilli is one i'd be looking at for bench / depth. Always get a quick play the ball and frinds his front. Almost like an Erin Clark of Warriors type 13 / 9.

Yes ..and it’s a mistake to be playing Latu at 13 ,,,and I said so before his game last week…he is a half …

I actually don’t mind Lussick as a 9 … he could be a starter at another club …. But we know that won’t be happening here

There is a bit of an obsession trying to find a Connor Watson … we are a different team to them …rightly or wrongly…what works for them may not work for us

 

[supercoach]

Is there proof of anything recently with TDS?

I dunno where @supercoach heard that coffee with gus goss but he is a long time poster here with a bit of cred that doesnt post shit for nothing

It was in one of those little snippet columns months ago, probably written by the drunk but it was worded something like young Tigers no 9 seen having coffee with Gus. These things tend to be pretty accurate

Freddy Lussick not a bad shout at all.

Was just about to say the same thing. He would be my preference. Can do 25 minutes at hooker but also is big enough to play in the middle. He carved us up one game when he was at Souths. I’ve watched him for years. He never gets as much praise as he deserves.

Hes 32 !
Same age as Api
Weve seen the best of both...and only one is worth persevering with

 

[tigahhh]

Jack de Belin is set to leave the Dragons at season’s end and join Parramatta.

The 34-year-old has agreed to a deal with the Eels for 2026, with a club option for 2027. It’s now in the NRL’s 10-day cooling-off period.

De Belin is just 31 games shy of becoming the most-capped Dragon in history.

I've not happened across Adults discussing Unicorns or the Tooth Fairy and other such Fantasy...
But if I ever do,
I'll keep an ear out for the Discussions on Signing a bloke who hasn't played 1 game for the
best part of a decade and weigh up the rationale then.

Yawn.
