JAC

[happy_tiger]

I guess the big question is this as well

Bellamy is no fool .....surely he has considered JAC as a possible fullback if he thought he was capable and has many of the attributes of a fullback

He has the the greatest fullback I've seen as a mentor and still didn't consider making him JAC a fullback and let Drinkwater go

If Bellamy doesn't think JAC is fullback material is it wise we should think JAC is fullback material ??

That's because the young player he has at. fullback is simply outstanding. There is no need to consider others.

Why would you poach Papenhuyzen ...then not rate him and put him out for take (us included ) and then take him back if you haven't considered putting JAC at fullback ..he has 3 out of the 4 main attributes of being a fullback and he has Slater to teach him the positional side of playing fullback

Lot easier getting a good winger than a good fullback and far cheaper to get one from within your own ranks

So Bellamy wants Tommy Talu in return....”get stuffed”...take Jennings or nothing.....

 

[tigerap]

I rate Talau highly I believe he can be an Origin Level Centre in 18 months. The Fox is already at that level.

I have two issues:
1) Talau performance vs Cap Number will be much better than the Fox due to salaries.
2) It sends a horrible message in terms of the way we are building with the likes of Aloai, Twal, Blore, McIntyre etc.

Looking at it another way I’d prefer to keep Talau and sign Staines on a cheaper deal if he’s available.

I hope we get the Fox great to watch and an absolute speed demon but we have to play it safe. We have screwed our selves year after year.

This sounds just like another Mitchell saga....I’d be happy with JAC but not for more than $550k...go for Stains at $350k would be a smarter move

He's had Slater, Hughes, Munster and Papenhuyzen to play fullback. I cannot speak for Bellamy but do know these four are/were exceptional players. JAC is one of the finest wingers to grace the NRL in many years. He would be the first winger picked in our team, if not the first player. Do not get caught up in the fullback talk. Just pay him fullback $and play him on the wing?

I said in the previous post to put him on a trainee fullback contract 1st year and have a couple hundred in your pocket near season's end if he makes it as a fullback and upgrade him

I think you'll be waiting a long time for an answer.

 

[05TIGZZ]

I would get JAC and try him at fullback. If he does well then amazing. If he doesn’t then we have one of the best wingers in the game on the wing.

 

[05TIGZZ]

I'd like to see JAC here, but bang for buck I'd go for Staines.

Go hard for both.

X 2

 

[tigerbalm]

if he wants No.1, let him have a crack. I understand why some would be hesitant in spending overs but honestly whats the worse thing that could happen? they drop to 10th? Club needs recruitment win. They could push the tiger coming home narrative and create some positive buzz. JAC showed last night that he does have rock games but we all know he has more diamonds.

 

[Spartan117]

I would like very much to have JAC here,


I am very concerned that this Very good player looking for a fat contract and that the Tigers are going to overpay again.

We’re paying mbye 900k odd to plod around, we can’t do any worse

That is precisely the reason we should be weary. cant keep doing the same mistakes over and over.

I dont mind a little more for the right guy in the right position.

The NEW Wests Tigers goal should be to pay our best performers the best money.

No way you would pay him FB money to play on the wing.

That is the stupidest thing you have ever said Paws.

Not worth anywhere near that money on the wing.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

so when he goes to canterbury or another club we can be like oh well its ok we still have Nofo Douhie Brooks Talau etc
We are in this predicament we need one or two big signings
Grant and JAC will do or if we dont get those then we go all in for munster for 2022 we need a big kill and be prepared to pay for it

 

[barra]

Is JAC really that big a scalp??
Not a proper big kill like Munster would be.

That's your opinion and you well know he is an SOO and Aust rep. He's not just a winger.We have no issue overpaying wingers whom are not at JAC's level. You do what you have to. so you have him. He's highly marketable and would put bumbs on seats.

Hopefully we can get Koroibete, Rana or even Morris bros for less money, and much, much better attitude

FB money is 800+ to play on the wing??????

Don't think so Paws.

 

[tiger_scott]

Pay him $500K or whatever top winger $$ is, sign him for 1 year, with 2 years in his favour (a guarantee for him to sweeten the deal by offering job security). He plays fullback. 2 outcomes: he kills it and he renegotiates with us or another team for "fullback money" or he goes out on the wing and still collects a nice paycheck for years 2 & 3.

Fittler and Meninga appear not to have a problem with his attitude. On the contrary, Filter spoke on 9 last night about how hard he trains and. how good he is for morale in the dressing room. That speaks volumes for the man.

Koroibete is a great player but he would likely be on fullback money as well for the ARU.
