I Honestly think going after Aidan Sezer and Blake Austin for 1 or 2 years would be an option until our youth get experience and age a bit. The likes of Galvin and if latu join could get experience playing together in KOE and fill in for nrl with injuries/suspensions
 
I think we're likely to turn up with;

6 Latu Fainu
7 Kyle Flannagan

They don't want two rookie halves.
Options are limited.
Wakeham isn't good enough.

I think Flanno has levelled up and has a point to prove - he's experienced enough.
Wiz kid at 6.... Flanno playing a basic organisational halfback role that we've lacked for so long.

Looks good.

Flanno is beyond bad as a halfback he’s ESL level player not at NRL standard.

Flanno lol the supporters will burn the COE down if we sign Flanno
can see 7. Sezer 6. Fainu or 7. Schneider 6. Fainu
 
Don’t see any point in rushing Fainu (if he comes) in next year let him play KOE or off the bench to get a feel for it first, I don’t think Flanagan is a half to help bring youth through. Sezer has played in a GF and Austin never should have left the tigers.

I agree with this. Season is ruined and he links up with Fedely.

Let him have fun is Reserve grade for awhile, fewer injuries and he can learn the game better.
 
i watched Flannagan a few years ago,pinpoint kicking game,a few games this year Clune a pinpoint kicking game .its not top shelve but its better than we have now

I really don't get this at all.

So:
Aidan Sezer was an Okay'ish first grade player and has been out for ages.
Blake Austin was a kinda boom 5/8. Could really score but got found out in defense.

I loved watching Austin play. HELL NO.
Sezer doesn't have enough of a head on him.
There are only a few fringe options and that shows how bad a situation were in.

Best to worst:
Mitchell Pearce gets lured from England and signs with us not Easts*
Brodie Croft. (on a 7 year superleague contract).
Sam Walker.
Chris Sandow gets lured out of Retirement and isn't charged (scraping barrell here).
Kyle Flanagan.
Aiden Sezer.

Of all these options I would love for someone like Jehrome Hugues to come here. If we had to pay Overs, like Mitch M money so be it. We need a good experienced halfback OR we need someone who is very tight with Latu Fainu assuming we are still signing him.

*Cmon Mitchell. Easts screwed you, pretend to sign again with them then come to the Tigers. Why the Chooks get so much love from players yet keep treating their players like Dirt.

Prob is Sezer and Blake are both cooked...in the SL.

And were cooked years ago in Aus.

Yes, both could do a very basic job for 2 years...better than what we have now (but so are most state cup halves)

Two years of those two though would mean completely wasting two years of Api, Klemmer and Bateman. We need young, dynamic, halves whilst those 3 are still top class.

Completely agree,i am all in favour of young blokes getting their chance but will never support the idea of throwing them in too early and destroying their career and forcing them ourt of the club because of it
