[underdog]

corey parker?? Christ, that guy was around when they had unlimited tackles, and tries were worth three points… :smiley:

He's good, but i'd rather keep Rhino at lock....

 

[happy_tiger]

Gareth Widdup from Storm would be a good pick up and Pomeroy if price was right . Goal kicker wise Wes Naiquama would be a pretty cheap pick up and is a winger

 

[baku]

list must be wrong, MATAKA is playing for the Roosters this year…..probably more mistakes if you look closer

 

[Glennb]

Cant believe you dont have BMM in red?

 

[Demps]

I agree with Glennb
No Murdoch-Masila but Corey Parker… you are tripping.
In his defense, he can kick goals but he is not some one we need.
Willie Mataka is long gone, playing for Roosters I believe so forget him.
EDIT: as baku said.

I think some of the people on that list, especially the rabbitohs - will be their last year in the NRL.
I think Daniel Conn would be a good pick up for any team needing a solid second rower.

As for our boys, I'd defo be trying to hold on too...
Mitch Brown, Geoff Daniela, Andrew Fifita and Ben Murdoch-Masila.
I'd have to think about Utai & McKinnon and how they fit into the bigger scheme of things.

 

[spudoakes]

Cant believe you dont have BMM in red?

agreed BMM should definately be a keeper

 

[MacDougall]

These are the ones I'd show vague interest in. Mostly because they have potential more than as actual first graders. Bolded being the ones I'd actually try hard to get.

Broncos: Dunamis Lui

Raiders: David Milne

Bulldogs: none

Sharks: Siosaia Vave, **John Williams**

Titans: Jordan Rankin

Eagles: Jamie Buhrer

Storm: **Adam Blair**, Sisa Waqa

Warriors: none

Knights: Constantine Mika, Kevin Naiqama, Wes Naiqama

Cowboys: Leeson Ah Mau

Eels: none

Panthers: none

Rabbitohs: Beau Falloon, Chris Sandow, Junior Vaivai

Dragons: David Gower, Peni Tagive (I reckon Tagive would be a million times better now after a couple of seasons on the fringe of first grade with the Dragooons and his price wouldn't be that much worse than before)

Roosters: Martin Kennedy

Tigers: **Mitch Brown**, Geoff Daniela, **Andrew Fifita**, **Wade McKinnon**, **Ben Murdoch-Masila**, Matt Utai

You're tripping also.
Buhrer & Peni are good though. Adam Blair is a given but not for the price tag, Wayne Bennet said he won't pay any back rowers or front rowers more than 300k and he has the right idea.

I'd love to keep all the Tigers boys but it's unlikely that'll happen so I'm prepared for the bad news.

JOHN WILLIAMS? He is freaking terrible!
Naiquama brothers WTF !? Kev doesn't even play first grade and why would we want Wes, when we already have Beau Ryan who is a similar sort of player. Only difference is Wes can kick goals.

& no Warrior's players… wow. lol
There would be some bargains in there for sure, If we had some cash and wanted to buy a decent back up hooker we could throw some small coin @ Heremaia or Mara.
Lillyman, Latimore, B. Tupou, Shaun Johnson (will resign with NZ), Issac John, Heremaia, Joel Moon and even Hohaia & B. Seymour (who will both head to Super League next year I believe) would be great pickups for any club needing players for their positions.

Some of these comments were really funny….Thx

You cant just get blokes for no reason. Every recruit needs to add value or improve the Side.

No More fringe players required as we have an awesome mix of youth and Experiance.

Ps This List is incorrect Wade McKinnon is with us for another 2012.

Wests Tigers

Resign
Mitch Brown
Aaron Woods - Priority
Andrew Fifita - Priority
Liam Fulton
Ben Murdoch-Masila
\
\
Let Go
Geoff Daniela
Mark Flanagan
Junior Moors
Schirnacs x2

 

[Geo]

Fulton is already resigned as well…

you are 1 crazy dude if you want to let the Schirnacks go 117...

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

**you are 1 crazy dude if you want to let the Schirnacks go 117...**

This.

The Schirnacks have performed at or above expectations in FG.

 

[tigerbenji]

I agree with Geo fulton signed another couple of years and i would hang on to B.m.m, also wade has a year to go on his contract. Brown i would try & keep also the schirnacks x2, Fifita if the sharks offer big money we will have to let him go & keep woods. :righton:

 

[Spartan117]

I dont have the full knowledge and history of the Shirnacks and their rise through the Juniors, I know some of you are connected to them and I mean no disrespect. (Im that way with the Mannah Boys)

However from Objective eyes Both Schirnacks have been solid and very dependable. I dont care if they are typically smaller (I live my life by the Motto " Its the Fight in the Dog not just the Dog in the Fight"). I like em… But if I was presented with the Opp to get players like Blair and James Graham and let go a few fringe players I would.

Truly it's not fair to keep players hanging on if they are unlikely to be in the 17 Week in and Week out. NRL career is too short and they need to maximise their earning potentials.

We are stewards of this great club whether we work, play or support it and have to ensure that it is growing amdn moving forward with every decision.

 

[Icon]

There are some extremely talented young backs that are yet to crack it in first grade and would be possible for a very reasonable price including Elijah Niko, Drury Low and Junior Vaivai.
As for our team I believe that our priorites are Ben Murdoch-Masila, Andrew Fifita and Aaron Woods. I think its time to let Fulton, Flanagan, Moors, Brown and Flanagan go and begin to blood our young guys like Junior Roqica, Faleula Finau and Jake Mullaney as well as giving more game time to Woods, Fifita, Murdoch and Latu.

 

[CocaCola]

Tigers: Andrew Fifita, Ben Murdoch-Masila

Eagles: Tony Williams 22years, 192 cm, 115kg.. Monster size who can fill the boots of Tuaki on the wing & cause rampage for us.. (can also slot into 2nd row if the team ever needs shifting)..

Storm: Blair

 

[guesty123]

the colouring system is horrible on this forum, didnt mean to highlight mataka and when u press colour you loose half the players so didnt see BBM

there may be some mistakes i copied and pasted it from GC forum because i thought it looked interesting.

Reasons for me picking my players:
**Corey Parker**- Defensively he is amazing, and is one of the better goal kickers in the NRL.

**Adam Blair**- Aggresive, runs hard and has alot of mungrel in him.
**Ben pomorey**- Watched him play not long ago and tore shreds, has he been playing wing lately?

Storm: Blair

TONY WILLIAMS???? BahahahHHa he has to be the laziest, most overrated winger in the comp. No thanks. His attitude sucks

 

[Vicious]

Tom Humble a fullback with blistering speed, good under the high ball & has some ball playing ability.
Mitch Brown a must keep, very under rated.

 

[Danos]

I said it before, I reckon Joe Tomane would be a great pickup. He's not going to get a run infront of Idris, Champion, Zillman, Mead, Gordon, Michaels, Capewell etc so I doubt he'll stay at the Titans. He would look quality on our right wing outside of Ayshford. A big bullocking 110 kilo winger with exceptional pace and a great finisher. Can also play centre, fullback and can kick goals.
