there are alot of players coming off contract.
wests-tigers have in previous years paid big money for some players and in return got lack lustre performances.
look and see who would best suit wests-tigers style of play, approach them, and if they decide to come to wests-tigers, do not :bulb: turn them into a backrower :unamused:

I was thinking last night i'd be quite happy to see these new faces in 2010:
- Finch (some saying it's a done deal?)
- Inu
- Ross (at the right price)
- Tupou
- Taumata
Fills in lots of gaps.

We need counselling if we think finch would be a good signing. He is overated and a spoiled brat.
Forget about spending 300k on him. Forget also about jamie simpson, brett delaney and cooper vanu ??
Tigers should be seriously pursuing george rose. This big lump of a bloke would look great along side kg in the front row. He is better imo than payten and gibbs.
If Krisnan Inu is a possibility then go for broke. Something has gone horribly wrong for this kid at parra this year. I still think he has the potential to be a superstar, another Israel Faloua.
With our own coming through like ayshford, lazarus, hanbury, lui, and the signing of tupou and taumata forget about spending money for the sake of spending. Focus diligently on Rose and Inu and i like the look of our roster for the next couple of seasons.

Did anyone hear Daniel Anderson's press conference after the loss to Titans? I only heard a snippet but he was blaming Krisnan Inu's goalkicking for the loss. Pretty poor form I reckon, doing that publicly. We have lost games because of goal kicks but I don't remember the coach highlighting that (and the kicker) for the loss. Perhaps Inu is on the outer at Parramatta…

1\. Krisnan Inu
2\. Taniela Tuiaki

12\. Gareth Ellis
13\. Liam Fulton
14\. Arana Taumata

No Moltzen? Bloody good side otherwise.

Where would you play him?
I just listed all the players we're linked to in a top 17\. Couldn't fit him in with all the other players I'd added. (There's an argument for having him at half instead of Finch, or on the bench instead of Taumata, or at fullback, with Inu on the wing instead of Tupou)
Also, to reply to an earlier post; it was my choice I wouldn't put Fulton in. (Again, I put him there because I made the side to include various players we've been linked to) I'd rather save money and promote Dwyer, Mataka, Shirnack (either one), Hyland, Gower or Akeripa.

I heard from a reliable source that Greg Inglis will be wearing Tigers colours next year.
(Should I be calling my 8 year old brother reliable?)

Simmonds also distanced the club from speculation axed Cronulla halfback Brett Seymour would be handed a lifeline by the Tigers.
"Probably at this stage it is not something we will pursue. We have a young lad in our `20s called Robert Lui who we think has a big future," he said.
"I wouldn't be surprised to see him go around in first grade before the end of the season and at this stage we see that as the future."

Can't see us wanting to buy Finch either.

We won't go near Finch. The club sees Lui as a long term partner outside Benji.
