Seyfarth is absolutely hopeless.

Seyfarth is absolutely hopeless.

From what we saw of him this year.yeah he looked hopeless haha
I’m trying to stay optimistic

Unfortunately he is gone, something changed on Thursday but appears Titans came in at the 13th hour with an offer to good to refuse, hence the delay in announcement but certainly caught Madge off guard.

Thanks for the info.

What a farce we have become.

We develop him for ages, he finally comes good. Our one player who actually has technique in his D. Who actually stings in D.

Can ball play and tackle = ideal long term 13.

Pom, have they even looked at the balance of the team? Because it looks like a mess right now. There are so many things needed that have not been addressed. The squad is top heavy in several positions and extremely weak in others.

If Madge is 'surprised' a kid he gave a chance to, who looked a long term starter, has suddenly left....what does that say about how we negotiate with players?

This sadly will happen until we get the cap in order and can afford to pay decent money across the board. 2.5m in Packer, Reynolds and Mbye is the problem. Brooks on massive money yet to deliver on his talent. We are a basket case but I think we are on the right track problem is we are two seasons away.It’s not pretty when it looks like 2022-23 to compete.

Any news on rusty’s headaches?

They will disappear around June when most of the years salary is paid.

Remember all those years ago everyone was saying once we got a real coach, recruitment/retention would come on leaps and bounds. We must still be waiting for that real coach

Yeah, what's J T doing at the moment?

It's a loss. I don't think it's a massive loss but he can tackle and he has come on within our squad. I'd like to keep these guys as well.

Personally, I feel it is a significant loss as it comes on top of Grant, ET and Lawrence. Ie our best defenders technically. We have a lot of big blokes left who tire and arm grab. You need a 13 like McIntrye. I actually think he is a hell of a signing for the Titans as their pack lacked a worker with great technique. He balances them really well now.

Look he’s not a huge loss, solid player the big question is will his money (which wasn’t much) be used well and will we replace him

We need another second rower at the club otherwise one injury and it’s literally Chee Kam on the bench and that’s not good enough

It's not great to lose him but he is definitely not a player that you get into a bidding war over. It is impossible to be critical when you do not know how much the Titans are paying him.

I dare say they’re paying a decent amount more than we are. Would he surprised if he even plays if their whole team if injury free there.

What’s important now is who we sign in his spot. We need a second rower pretty bad

That's the clincher hey...

Not fussed about losing him IF we have a replacement. He's never gonna set the league on fire. But if there is no replacement then the offer should have been matched.

As you said, our back row depth is abysmal atm. MCK on the bench each week is not a recipe for success.

This past week has been something else. Only up from here:joy: :joy: :joy:

It’s not been the best week.... we need some good news at WT ?

I don’t see many first grade ready second rowers available, we will have to get an early release for someone if we do want a decent second rower

All aboard the Angus Crichton hype train

I’m on that train. Let’s start a rumour. It was announced that Madge had been talking to Chrichton in the same week as McIntyre was “let go”. Coincidence?

 

[OzLuke]

even if they only offered 30-50k more, maybe the kid would rather live on the GC rather than Leichhardt, Concord or Campbelltown?? To a young kid 50k is a good payrise on top of the lifestyle of living up there...

 

[tiger05premier]

Just a question, if the POM knew that the Titans gazumped us on Thursday why did he not post anything until it was rumoured on here?
Maybe he is just a forum member with no more information than the rest of the people on here.

It's also funny that we supposedly negotiated with him for months and than the titans suddenly jump in and he says bye to us and signs their contract straight away

 

[tiger05premier]

Cheer up lads, we still have Seyfarth

And if we are lucky Rankin and lolohea will come back

 

[Tigerlily]

Well that’s a surprise if true. I agree with Cochise that the WTs shouldn’t get into a bidding war over Sam, the Titans can have him if that’s the case (no more paying overs). I Don’t know how Sam fits into the GC structure though especially when you have a look at how many quality 2nd rowers they have on rotation. Surely would of had more opportunities with us to play in the Nrl - the almighty $$$$ is the winner in this one.

That would explain JACs reluctance to come back
