Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Question for anyone with any info on player agency’s. My boy has been approached by wasserman rugby and just wanted to know if they’re ok and not an Issac Moses type company. Thanks in advance

Balmain Boy at it again. You got NFI son! Stop stealing our oxygen. If you watched the game the edge forwards held them self well against Penrith the first half. You’re talking about a 4 time NRL grand final team who could not bust our line for 30min. Had Latu not shot out, no way they would have scored. I would have been embarrassed if I was a Penrith player and could not get through a rookie 21 year old edge forward for that long.

But since you hate Sukkar, Twal and Doueihi, it’s quite obvious where your minds at. BUT like the coward you are, you will never run it Str8.

Please change your name to keyboard warrior!

Are you suggesting Twal and Sayfarth are starting forwards in other N.R.L teams. I'm not including Sukkar cause hes just starting out in first grade.

Good luck mate, the fact he's asking to make sure he's not like Moses shows a great level of maturity. Best of luck in the future.

I reckon Ryles is almost coach of the year given how well he’s got them playing. Remember their opening half of the opening round in Melbourne - they were terrible, played like a Sydney Shield team.

I take your point about certain positions they still need to strengthen but given a fair crack with injuries, I see the Eels pushing strongly for a finals berth in 26.

I think Ryles is making a real go of his first stint as a head coach, but Moses plays such a massive part in any success they achieve. Not bagging Luai but if we had landed Moses when we chased him we would probably be on the cusp of playing finals football now. Can’t stand Moses but I rate him possibly a touch in front of Cleary as he has never had the same quality players around him that Cleary has had

BREAKING: Jerome Luai had given his strongest indication yet that he is going to see out the full length of his contract at the Wests Tigers. Full story @9NewsSyd

that’s Danny Wielder so god knows what he’s talking abt

 

[Vicious]

Did a couple of forward options become available like 48 hours after you posted this? Funny how that works hey…

Who has become available that will make sure our forwards don’t get bullied ?
Trey Mooney is a good young player and he’s probably as good as we might be able to get, but he’s is yet to show he’s an NRL forward leader.
The others such as Beau Fermor is an edge back rowers, but I reckon Richo and Benji are of the same opinion as you and are satisfied with Samuela and KPP.
As I’ve agreed they are both.goid players, but neither have the explosive speed that every other club has with at least one of their edge back rowers. My solution is to give Ssmuela and KPP every opportunity to make the edge back row positions their own, but bring in a versatile, faster, more explosive edge back row option as our 15 and to keep the pressure on them to perform. Someone like Fermor is not coming here to be a number 15, however players such as Simi Sasagi might providing they do get a starting spot if their form demands it.

I can't judge the success of Luais signing until we actually get a real forward pack. Cleary on Saturday night behind our guys would have done no better. We don't have a pack. I give our guys a white hot shot at beating the dogs, they're pack arnt huge so we won't get dominated as much as we did against the Panthers, the problem we will have is they seem faster than the Panthers forwards so I'm keen to see how our pack goes.

They are one of the bigger agencies in both NRL & rugby. Have the likes of Starford To'a, Hammer, Xavier Savage, Isaiah Papalii, Xavier Coates. Seem to be popular amongst the Kiwi players.

They’re good

Only represent Toa for us

 

[weststigers]

Spot on.
He needs better assistants--------------OR he needs to listen to the ones he has.
This is where Benji must decide on how it's to be? If you need better help................get it!
Or perish by your own sword. Over to you Benji.

The coach is the last piece of the puzzle in my opinion. We have sacked so many coaches and kept playing with mediocre sides expecting better results.

The coach needs the players first and foremost. Any team in the top 4 aren't trotting out sides like we've had in the past.

Our recruitment has been pretty good and Benji will either have them winning or he'll be replaced. At least we will have a team capable of winning games off the bat instead of having to wait 3 years for the new coach to rebuild the squad which is going to be infinitely harder with a 19 team competition.

Hopefully in the next few years my boy will get there and represent our beautiful club! That’s what he wants that’s for sure

 

[weststigerman]

We should be raiding the Wahs 19/20 year old forwards. Their forwards have everything we don't and they have a logjam of them.

Surely some of them will have looked up to Benji.

 

[Tcat]

At concord training, Samuela is running great

Does the team train????? Doesn't really show on the field.

 

[Odessa]

Dolphins have Katoa, they don't need another 7

Bennett wants Katoa
Katoa wants Sydney

Just got to get rid of Dodd

All I’ve heard over the last few weeks is Ryles coach of the year and Iongi buy of the year.

It shows how reactionary rugby league is and how short everyone’s memory is. Parra have been good for about 4-5 weeks. They were terrible before that.

They’re still in the bottom 4 and some experts had them finishing in the top 8 at the start of the season. How could Ryles even been considered for coach of the year. In what world? They’re currently in a worse position on the ladder than they were predicted by the ‘experts’. Raiders were favourites for the spoon and no one thought the Dolphins would be competitive after Wayne left.

Sure they’ve shown they’re on the right track and had a good month, but let’s not forget the rest of the season?

It's Benji's Plan B.... OR game management that's questionable! Taking advice? Player rotations?

Not saying that's good or bad but imagine what we could do with 1.2m?
