    Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

    Maybe? It's not as if he's suddenly become the answer to all the Eels problems. Until the last 3 weeks, he's been a bench player. Question is- how much is he getting to be a bench player? Molo. I don't know if he upgrades our current top 3-4 middles. Terrell May, Pole, Sione Fainu, Twal...he's...

    $350k is actually your opinion. Nowhere, anywhere, is it reported he is signed to the Tigers for $350k a season. Just like Bud Sullivan isn't on $750k as some might have people believe.

    Well, if you could just point out the available upgrades that have switched clubs that the Tigers missed out on, we can talk about the club not upgrading. Have there been many better 2nd rowers than KPP switch clubs? Better centre options than Taylan May switch clubs? How many front rowers or...

    Jock Madden #244

    Going to assume he'll be on significantly less than Bud. He's played 32 1st grade games. Bud has 48 to his name. You need guys with some experience in reserve. I don't think we hated Madden when he was here. He's just not....special. And that is ok. His job will be to NOT lose games if he plays.

    Harness this bloke. Love him already.

    Kaufusi I can get on board with for sure. I doubt he will relocate from Qld at 33, but he provides the ability to shift momentum more than most players off contract.

    Let's be honest- how much can you rely on a winger to bring the shift in momentum?

    People are suggesting Ellis. Probably true. Maybe Daine Laurie to a degree. (The forward, not the guy currently at the Panthers) Thing is- naming Ellis is missing the point. Who cares when the LAST one actually was? When is our NEXT one? As a club, the Tigers do not bully anyone, they rarely...

    This love affair with Bullemor is baffling. He's a bench player for every club he has gone to, and he's not exactly bashing the door down for selection at the Sea Eagles despite losing both Aloia & Paseka for the season. The much laughed at suggestion of Jack Hetherington....well, the Sea...

    Your team vs Panthers

    Used to be Isaac Thompson at Souths- played a few 1st grade games. He's the guy you are thinking of- big & powerful.

    Staines was "Steve Mavin" bad on the weekend. Unfortunately for him Tu'itupou has been on the edge of selection due to having a really good KOE campaign. It's good that there is GOOD competition for 1st grade spots. This isn't necessarily a slight on Staines as it is a commendation for...

    AD has had exactly 1.5 games at #13. It looks promising at best. That isn't to suggest I don't think he shouldn't be signed. I think Doueihi is a great player & have championed him often. BUT. An extra option to play #13 is required AT LEAST in case Doueihi doesn't continue to look promising...

    LIVE GAME Round 20 v Titans

    To'o & Martin could very well be out vs Tigers. I was pretty happy with how we played them last time. Then we get the Bulldogs- a game I believe we will be up for vs the Galvin effect. Sea Eagles are carrying a lot of injuries atm as well. There are reasons we lose all three of those games...

    LIVE GAME Round 20 v Titans

    Just a couple of things- Doueihi's reaction to kicking the winner wasn't the actions of a guy wanting out. Luai looks so much better with Taylan May outside him. Skelton looked so much better with Taylan May inside him. This is a game we absolutely lose last season. Charlie Staines played...

    T&T Contract? Maybe. I'd rather look at Raymond Faitala-Mariner if we want a guy looking at one last shot at playing in the big time. Again, low Top 30 contract at best.

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    Galvin is going to be a fine player. The Dogs are not as good as advertised though. Really looking forward to the Tigers v Bulldogs clash coming up.

    I think numbers mean he has to be picked at this point. He had a few games early where his efforts were pretty good. But he literally could have made the same efforts from centre. He's not big enough to be impactful in the forwards in attack unfortunately, and while he is ok with straight line...
