Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[weststigers]

No way. Dogs supporters would love us to take him. Always take the ones they don't want to lose.

Naden was simply just a necessity. No Centres.

Every signing can be good at the right price. We are going to get injuries and NRL standard depth is needed…rarely is that considered in signings discussions.

Not many teams get the balance right. Under the cap system, the more NRL standard budget priced players you have the more you can pay for elite players

Please give me a long leash, I may be showing my age, but I often look back with fond memories of when this task was actually carried out by the coach.

You need mentors on the field too

I hope the tigers have given Angus a dead line , because if it drags out , u know what we end up with , NOTHING

 

[Lee's fedora]

Agree I think he would be a great fit...
Do you have any update on him and if the offer has been done?

Nothing new still early days

If you played at all, And you didn't learn anything from your senior players at the time....
Might be why you're here with us - Just talking shit about Footy.

Anyone know what happened about the Raiders players been on the market and approaching us ? Thats gone quite the last few weeks

 

[Kelce68]

Maybe we give the roosters O'Kane and Kautoga for Chricton.

Or, we keep them both and simply poach Crichton from them.

That's why you give him a deal he can't refuse

So we loose Hoffman early on in his contract year, wait half a year for Bulldogs to pay a portion of Nadens salary then sign him up in the vacant spot still keeping squad spot 30 available.
Pretty good business.

As long as business isn’t winning footy games

Any legs to the suggestion that Burto might want to follow Naden to WT?

Unhappy with Trent’s demise is the whisper.

My first thought: yes.

 

[BAGNF05]

Does offering Crichton 700k a season fall into the same category as trying to get Dale Finucane for similar last year?

You’d rather be in the trenches with Dale

Probably unhappy with a bunch of things but I doubt he sees us as the answer to his problems.

Wouldn't rule it out. Good friends with Naden, Laurie and Blore apparently.

I can understand Burton if we are moving madden on. But isn't doueihi a really similar player?

Off a second knee reco. You’d be silly to bank on him being a long term solution.

From a young mate who used to play under him, I’ve heard Nado is very popular and has a lot of influence.

So a good player to sign to catch used Panthera.

Nado and Burto were hard core Trent disciples. They left a rugby league super-power to play for him. That reason has gone.

Burton..geez that would solve a lot of problems for us, more than a fighting chance during those back end disasters, when we often flounder.

Imagine Burton and AD outside Hastings.
