Can we get him some new hamstrings?
Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion
- Thread starter MacDougall
- Start date
Not sure about reliable. For me, he is right up there as one of the players in the whole comp who has never lived up to his potential. Part of that is injuries and being moved around a bit, but that just proves more about no being reliable.
I agree somewhat though Id say part of that is being in a usually poor team
Are you for real ?
At least be somewhat realistic.

I like it a lot T, but it really does smell like fantasy stuff, could be possible if he's pissed at being moved around to different positions.
Rumblings started in the past when he didn't like being moved from fullback, his preferred position.

Walsh and Weekes are contracted to 2029.
AJ Brimson is contracted till 2030.
According to you we are a destination club. So Walsh and Weekes should be frothing at the mouth to come here on unders to play under Benji, and more importantly, under our supreme leaders at HBG.
My suggestion is as realistic as most on here.... aka pure fantasy..
Who we getting in 2 years time ?
We keep assuming Attard will be an elite fullback in a couple of years time and I hope he is, but so far he has only shown that he is quick, not much else.
I realise Benji and the coaching staff see these players almost every day and should know what they are doing, but I think Attard will be better suited to wing or centre and I think Logan Brookes is the better fullback prospect.
AJ Brimson would only be 31y.o turning 32y.o in 2030. His best position is fullback and at his best his attacking game is far superior to Jahream’s at the moment.
Not my number one choice, but he would improve us with his speed off the mark and attacking x-factor.
For the record I cannot see the Titans letting him go.
There are some players who are simply not changing clubs and these two players are 2 of them.

The third party deals Walsh would have in Brisbane would be off the charts
Ok mr know it all, you know this how?
I bet you would of said the same thing about Payne Haas 2 months ago.
And you are forgetting, you told us we are a destination club!

Titans don't know where to play him, they also have cap issues...he could do a "moses" and kick stones to get out of the Titans, especially if he knows WT are looking for a long term fullback....
We are a destination club as of right now, that can change quickly if our results are not good.

They aren’t though … they are looking at someone for 2 years if Bula leaves

Atwood would be the plan…
I don’t want Brimson until the end of 2030 getting paid $850k a year and neither would you in reality…
It’s not going to happen anyway … so I’ll move on
Well that’s correct, the Titans are in no position to release him even if he was keen to move elsewhere.
In regards to Attard, what makes you think he will be an elite fullback in 2 years time ?
He’s an exciting young player with plenty of pace, but has not done anything special in NSW Cup just yet.

Lots of talk about straight swaps each season.
Has that ever really happened? If it has it would be very rare.
Great chat if clubs are allowed to trade your contract, but that is not the case in the NRL.
The player must agree and most, if not all, of the time, they don't.

You really entertain me.
So we were a destination club after round 2? But in december we were not...
Destination clubs dont change with the weather

If Bula walks and looking at the tea leaves that looks a real possibility, and we release him at the end of this season and don’t take up our option, we must get something worthwhile out of the deal and not a stack of cash.
We must get a player or a couple of standout juniors. For to long we have rolled over and basically got nothing out of letting a player walk. The Dogs gave us some cash for Galvin, but that doesn’t help our roster. We have to start playing hardball

If we dont take up the option, then we dont have any right to get something out of it as he is off contract.
The only way to get a player would be to take up the option, and then he tells us he wants out - then we negotiate...but it only happens if we take up the option.
