We do but if we are going to replace them we don't have to do it with players whose best games are two years behind him
 
Really depends what we pay for him. Not worth what he would have commanded three years ago but still better than Edwards , sue , Lovett etc
 
Geez Guierra not a better option than what we have?

Even he knows that on current form he can't command top dollar
 
Guerra is a bit of a knob but he's still better than what we have, and further more so is Eastwood (from the bench) we've persisted for far too long with guys who just arent up to it. Sue, Lovett,Edwards,Ava and the list goes on.Thats the types we have been putting up with for far too long either because they are stop gaps or juniors. We as a club and us as fans to a certain degree give these guys far too much latitude, we need a culture that isn't ok with mediocrity. Every successful club has a good mix of experience and youth and they blend the youth when they can.
So the culture needs to change and to do that you need guys that bring professionalism with them Guerra isnt a world beater but he's a decent play who's played origin in a team that won for many many years. So he may be out of form but at 29 isnt over the hill with a change of scenery and a leadership role he may flourish again, and help our blokes in the mean time.

Agree 100%
 
Opposition forwards lick their lips in anticipation when the come up against our current forward pack, even with Aaron Woods included. Guerra and Eastwood are two different types of forwards but they will provide Wests Tigers with size (Eastwood) and mobility (Guerra). Wests Tigers need them to balance our pack for next year and make it the competitive force which it has sorely lacked for years.

Correct, we haven't had a decent pack, especially second row, since Ellis/Dwyer.
 
Tigers currently have Joel Edwards starting in the back row and supporters think signing an origin back rower is a bad idea? Fans are great aren't they?

We had Lovett and Edwards starting backrow on friday night, that even for us is a new low, chuck in Rankin and JLJ as starting halves and we really stink it up.

What's the hold up with him making up his mind? You reported the Tigers made him an offer 2-3 weeks ago now.

Would take him in a heartbeat. Hopefully he makes his mind up on where he'll be playing next season soon.
 
Im not saying our back rows/lock line is GOOD for 2018\. But McQueen, Lawrence and Taylor is that bad. Lawrence i wouldn't mind put on bench but really? its not terrible. But Guerra would be a sweet inclusion.
