Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

It’s interesting but would be surprised because of the way he left. The club is a mess from admin to roster and he wasn’t listened too last year - moving JD doesn’t change any of the bigger issues.

Wouldn’t surprise me if Madge or Holbrook (he is at the Roosters now and Souths do like poaching a Rooster) is in the mix.

If Wayno wants to be head coach he would be a walk up starter as doesn’t have a head coaching gig next year.

Holbrook is an interesting shout.

Jeral Skelton in Cup last week

1 try
22 runs for 302 metres
2 line breaks
10 tackle breaks

that is a first grader. yes he has issues defensively but I'd back Morris to sort him out. stuck behind Kiraz, Addo-Carr, Tracey and Wilson... we could certainly do worse.

300 metres is nuts.

Personally I don't think Morris would want to do that.

When Sam Burgess was being openly critical of things going on with the coach, Mitchell, Walker etc. there was not a peep out of Morris, but then he probably did not have a job lined up with us at that stage and may very well have thought that he should play it safe and keep out of it.

Love that Alex Johnston has recently been reported as being critical of the coach and fat headed Latrine, If he is on the outer for speaking up, then there is a spot over here for him on the left wing, at a club that is on the rise.

That left side attack at Souffs has somewhat dried up in recent times and as a result his try scoring numbers are way down on what they were in the past, I can imagine that with Olam and Lachlan Galvin on that left side his numbers would be way up again.

Like you Ink, I don't think Morris would want to go and work with Mitchell, but as you said, "head coaching jobs don't appear outta nowhere all that often," if you could sort out that mess you'd be a genius and if you didn't it could very well be career suicide.

I think the Jason Demetriou situation in hind sight is similar to Madge Maguire in that he probably should have been gone at the end of last season and instead the problems continue on to the middle of the next season, but who knows, maybe he wins 10 in a row and gets a 3 year extension, strange things have been known to happen.

Personally I think he needs to go and it's not that I don't like Demetriou, actually to be perfectly honest, I don't like Demetriou, it's mostly because I HATE SOUFFS.

Hahah imagine if we snagged Alex Johnson... That'd put quite a few noses out of joint... I'd love it
 
Would love to get hold of Johnston as well but I could not see it happening, he has rejected us in the past and he is Souffs through and through and loves the place despite them treating him like garbage in the past.

If we some how got hold of him I'd love it too.

Plays golf on the PGA - has a lot more money than any NRL player but won't win the Masters.

Is he torn between the two and not excelling at either, bcoz he needs to concentrate on one?
But otherwise thanks that tidbit, it’s always interesting to hear about the players passion away from NRL.

they are serious stats. Is he related to, is it Will Skelton, the big union player? Who I think was from our area?

Would Wayne want a Rebuild of sorts>>??

He is welcome to ride the West Tigers Resurgence.

I would love him here at the Tigers !!

As head of football he would be fine but under no circumstances would i want him anywhere near the coaching team.This would be a new position and not one replacing Richo in any way
 
In my favourite rumour I've heard in ages apparently someone from Saints approached the club about a Lomax/Sullivan swap deal 😂

Would probably make a few in here happy but I don't think there's any way we can match the Parra offer coming Lomax's way. Not sure we need him at his expensive rate anyway

you'd kill for it to be true but surely Saints aren't that stupid.

there's a lot of chatter about that Lomax has already agreed to terms with Parramatta, they're just dotting the i's and crossing the t's.

I hope the rumour's correct tho!
