Adam Doueihi #227

[Jimmy]

I think this is a really good signing. In the offseason we've picked up the two Leilua's, Doueihi and likely loaning a great hooker for 12 months. All really smart buys imo. I'm heading into 2020 with a hell of a lot more confidence than 2019. I reckon we're a really good chance for the 8.

Good to hear. We are looking a lot better aren't we.

Oh and I forgot Musgrove too. A low risk, high reward type signing given the low $ he'd be on. We're looking heaps better. That right side of Marshall with the two Leilua's and then Doueihi chiming in will cause some teams some real problems. Will be fun to watch.

Still think it’s overs (450k) for a 2 Try wannabe...
As Geo said he’ll need to slay it from the get go !
So Thompson to the wing and Jennings to Centrelink ?

Based on what I saw last year I think it's a fair price. I think he's a real talent and has a lot of upside to his game. Just my opinion though.

Hmm not sure about the wing spot. It will be CT or Jennings. Jennings looks like he's trimmed down a lot. Hopefully he plays in the 9's.

Imo I’d have nofo and Jenno on the wings...not the fastest combo but if Jennings does get his 2018 form back he beats thommo for me....I’d love to see thommo off the bench maybe like papi but that’s up to how Magdeburg uses the interchange

I can confirm it was 1.9 over 4 years, pretty good deal for a gk and FB. Good work everyone involved i say.

Thank God for the goal kicking aspect! I was concerned after we let Momo go and no recognised gk to replace him. Obviously this was planned all along. Nice work Madge & Pascoe 👍

 

[Cairnstigers]

Sorry guys just a bit convinced about how much we are paying each year separately ? Could someone please post again what’s being paid by us please ? Thanks

Madge if you don't know we are in real trouble

Or are you not the real Madge

 

[05TIGZZ]

Wow amazing news if true. Our backline will be fantastic. Well done to madge and team. Seems like we have sorted out hooker, centre and fullback . First time in a long time the club has delivered.

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

Wonder if this leaves Cory out in the cold a bit, new rules dont suit him necessarily. We're a chance to start with Jennings and Nofo on the wings. He might want out now a bit like Doueihi did when Mitchell came to souffs. I still think this crazy offseason has a few more twists and turns in it for this year more domino's might fall.

Where’s he going to go? Nowhere he can play fullback. I think he’s ahead of Jennings.

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

@GNR4LIFE could leave him in reggies, i have a feeling Madge will go with Jennings. If that happens he might be ok with the fight like what he said when Mitchell was on the cards. Or he could become disgruntled, its just a theory Madge may well go with Cory on the wing.

overrated

Feeling pumped still lack pace but hey it’s a start
1.Doueihi
2.Nof
3.BJ
4.Mbye
5.Jennings

Depth:
Smith
Talau
Thommo

I’d personally run thommo off the bench as I’d love him to be in the starting 17 come round 1

If he was to get disgruntled, who cares. There’s a lot of leaps being made though.

Tim Sheens, is that you? Wingers on the bench 🤮

 

[TCL]

Does it matter...Pascoe assured everyone Wests Tigers will not pay overs ever again for players...

Anyway looking forward to the official announcement...there will be pressure on Doueihi to hit the ground running given all that's gone on...hope he slays it..

Pascoe also said we are look for speed, AD is not a speedy player.

I hope he lives up to the hype cause I just don’t see it?

 

[MtWarrigalTiger]

Few posts about Corey Thompson,,, he is a great man to have in the squad.If someone in the back three injured or suspended for week here or there he fills in admirably.Corey Thompson isn’t going to play nrl 1 for a full season at any team

Souths fans did. The ones I know are really pissed.

Our right side lacked impact last year. I reckon that is fixed now. If anything the right side looks stronger than the left side.

Our middles are looking good although I'd like to get that Parra forward earlier than next season but I think Musgrove is going to be a beast for us.

 

[Demps]

pumped

That is the most solid backline we've had in years.
Sure we could do better than Jenko and Corey on that wing... but its as solid as it gets.

considering where we were a week ago and where we are now....this is a major improvement and lots of upside to look forward to

 

[Tiger Tarl]

I feel like a Doueihi's or two.

You say the backline is still lacking pace but select Jennings with Thomson on the bench?
