And fatness

Matumua and Hunt...

Where the hell is our Biggest loser trainer, someone who pushes their physical fitness to the hilt and helps them get game ready.

We shouldn't be having this problem of players getting fat if our training is intense enough.

Knights signing Papali'i depends on the contract status of Gagai & Frizell.

Tigers have been linked to Frizell through Benji & #13 is still an upgradable position.

Gagai to replace Doueihi now that he is a Moses client.

It's not that long a bow to draw..

Gagai?

I mean look, he is a good player. But if people are saying Reynolds and DCE are past it. Surely Gagai is too.

If we don’t have May and Mak and a few others we probably take him. I think our focus needs to be adding another elite player to the pack. That then creates competition for remaining spots and allows the kids to develop properly

Why are we signing the Knights dead wood so they can squeeze in a better player ? They certainly didn’t help us out when we tried to get KPP early

Maybe just sign Paps and cut out the middle man ? He is certainly a better player than Frizell

Gagai is older than you are mate ! Even older than Paps !

Yeah agreed. Toa has one side sown up plus we have Taylan May who wouldn’t be far off being ready along with Douhei and the Big Mak coming through.

Thought of this today so let’s see if it rings true.

Within the last few weeks there was a rumour of a big name Queensland player who was disgruntled at their team being signed by the Tigers for next year.
Last week another rumour that a team at the bottom of the ladder was chasing Tino.
The coach at the Dolphins is about to get the flick.
And Tino has a get out clause after every year of his contract.
Will Tino be a Tiger next year?

Tino plays for Titans
No he won’t come to us

Much easier said than done finding or signing
1 x Hard running 50 minutes prop nrl level
1 x Lock NRL true lock
Us and quite a few other clubs are searching for these same types of players, but they are very scarce at the moment.

Papali’ takes care of the first on the list … why the hell would the Knights be beating us to the punch?

I guess the move from Canberra to Newcastle is easier than Canberra to Sydney. Can’t think of any other explanation. I would have thought the Chooks or maybe Manly would have been in the mix, and of course Gus is interested in anyone with boots on

seems like Benji & Richo aren’t interested in the older experienced demographic, i look at their recruitment they want young, fast players

Always room for a hard head like Paps, he could do a job better than most at 50

The Raiders have signed Pasami Saulo from the Raiders and Lachlan Crouch from the Sharks. Both are props and both local products from the Hunter region.

Never forget in 2010 and 2011 we had Steve Folkes, he deadset flogged the squad. No coincidence they were 2 of our 3 sucessfull seasons.

I've always liked Saulo.
I see some Tapine in him.
Except he never gets much of a chance.

He's a low cost recruit for Newcastle which they'll need with all their cap going into spine players.

Think this will be his chance to shine.
Newcastle has produces some good forwards over the years, seem to go better when they leave though.

Papali’i could effectively replace Royce Hunt if we could somehow get him off our books, but isn’t it rumoured that Papali’i is ideally looking to return to Brisbane ?
I’m assuming he might end up with the Dolphins.

Well it worked for the Raiders.

I'd like us to take a look at Cooper Bai at the Titans as an option at 13.

192cm and 93kg, he's got both the size and skill to become a very good player. QLD U19s rep and a knack of finding the line, he's got three tries in just two games in QLD Cup already with a 97% tackle efficiency and averaging 150 metres from the pine.

off contract as far as I'm aware and stuck behind a plethora of middles at the Titans.

give him a ring Richo.

I was talking with a workmate who is a long time Bulldogs member, never misses a home game and is now a corporate member along with his family and friends.
He is disgusted they would bring Galvin in mid season and disrupt their team when it was not required.
Not that it’s a secret, but he tells me nearly every Bulldogs supporter he speaks with feels exactly the same.

They were fine until the first lost all beating there chest they had him and have now gone sour why bring him in killing the season

He has big wraps.
Big future ahead you'd think.

Would be an amazing signing.
Yes please.
