Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

He was a fantastic signing for them, and us missing out on him is a contributing factor for us winning 3 spoons in a row.
We have had no leaders at the club. We didn't sign him because he wanted 4 years and we stopped at 3. Sharks offered 4, knowing he wouldn't finish them, and then they medically retired him after 2 years. No further cap hit, they milked his leadership, further instilled a culture of work ethic and excellence and then shipped him off.
We missed out and our still in the same position we were in.

I take it therefore you would in fact sign McInnes for 2026?
 
Could Tannah Boyd start the domino effect?

Hunt to Titans? That would put the Titans in a pretty good position short term.
 
I know this is a signings suggestions thread, but seriously we are a million to one chance of signing either Leo Thompson or Xavier Willison unless we pay them massive overs.
For those suggesting Turuva will be our saviour at centre and Skelton will be our saviour on the wing, I wish I shared your confidence.
Turuva is not real fast, not real big, not real strong and is a suspect front on defender, what attributes does he have to suggest he can be a quality centre ?
Skelton is a big beast, but slow for a winger, very rarely runs hard or aggressively enough to run over the top of opposing defenders and is a suspect defender who is prone to coming in when not required.
On top of this it is hopeful at best that Olam can overcome his injury concerns and get back to anywhere near his best.
That is just half our problems as we also have a head coach that struggles connecting with his players, numerous contracted players unwanted but not wanting to give up their over inflated contracts and hard to imagine any of them will be highly motivated.
Add an average at best forward pack lacking in quality and depth.
Unlesss a miracle happens in way of recruitment and retention between now and season 2025 kick off, it’s very hard to see us getting off the bottom of the ladder.

Turuva is not real fast, not real big, not real strong and is a suspect front on defender, what attributes does he have to suggest he can be anbute centre ?
Skelton is a big beast, but definitely slow for a winger, very rarely runs hard or aggressively enough to run over the top of opposing defenders and is a suspect defender who is prone to coming in when not required.
On top of this it is hopeful at best that Olam can overcome his injury concerns and get back to anywhere near his best.
And that’s just half our problems with a head coach that struggles connecting with his players, numerous contracted players unwanted but not wanting to give uk their over inflated contracts, hard to imagine any of them will be highly motivated.
Also an average looking fiorward pack lacking in quality and depth.

Thanks for being realistic Vicious. In this fantasy thread.
 
Haven't kept up with Leo Thompson news - but does he actually want to leave the Knights? They've just signed his brother over from Rugby.
