Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Coastie_Tiger]

Not confident in having To'a, Doueihi, Faataape as first choice centres. There was chat about Turuva making the move but not sure if he is up for it defensively.

I had a lot of doubts about the Olam-Blore swap. It has proven to be a really, really poor decision from Richo and Benji. They didn't do their dues and to be honest we would be lucky to get a medical retirement signed off by the NRL

I thought the Blore move was a Fulton play, didn't rate him. I'm not sure if he was involved with Olam that may well be on Benji.

Think he did the charity shield game

Maybe nothing to it then. Hope it's all good.

Klein is the biggest suspect.
His reffin is woeful.

Naden out for two months with his knee.

Poor guy club wanted to highly punt him, he stood his ground and stayed to force his way back into contention, to the point everyone was impressed, he seemed to have his head in a good space and was looking at having a really good campaign this year. Hope he recovers, he hasn't been a world beater but his attitude to knuckle down and prove everyone wrong at the club is what we need more of. Hope he's back sooner and still has a great year.

Gee I hate people like u , who jump on there moral high horse, if the NRL say he can sign for a club I am all good with , I am sick and tired of we don’t want him or him and they sign with another team and play the house down , we are here to win games not to judge what they have done , like I say NRL say good to go , sign him up

Gee HATE is a big word and moral high horse I don’t think so.
And yes if and when the NRL say he can be signed up let’s see who if anyone wants him.
Tell me how many other players that Penrith have terminated their contract over the last 4 years ?
But what would they know.

Fortunately not an ACL

I cringed when I saw the tackle on the replay, like when you watch someone get hit in the 🏉🏉, blokes cringe and get like a ghost pain.

 

[liltiger]

Please explain.
If medically retired and is paid out [2 years = $1.2 mil.] who pays? the NRL?

NRL has an insurance scheme I'm pretty sure, they payout from that.

 

[liltiger]

Did this really occur? Ive only seen a journo and people on here claim it.
However even if it did, this isnt a happy friends, chocolate fountains and rainbows unicorn riding enterprise. They are allowed to argue, vent frustrations and question decisions. I’ve seen no report from people who matter saying that he was constantly undermining Benj.


Yes this wasn’t great. He seemed unhappy, even upset at treatment?

It seems the club hasn’t handled it well. Do we even really know why he went back to England last year?

No clue at all apart from rumours about what happened Tucker, but 100 percent something did. Benji denied it, Bateman denied it, but it was when Bateman said he hadn't heard anything from the club, last time he heard anything from the club was when he left for England. That tells me something happened behind closed doors, what exactly, iv no clue.

 

[liltiger]

Maybe if he gets weekend leave

Judge will see its the Tigers who want him and force him to do it as community service.

Go back and look in the mirror

Benji and the 2005 GF?

I think he is saying that with Murray out as well, they will struggle.

Souffs suk.

South's are in a rebuild but they are notr recruiting or acting like it. Walker was talented and hel still some decent games but if you continue with the lack of accountability then South's will be bottom 8 or lower.

Wow
That’s the best you could come back with 😩

Walker is dusted.

Suk it souffs.

Insurance pays him out

 

[Bucko73]

Taylan May,
Found guilty as charged.
Sentenced to three years with west tigers 🐅 😳 🙌

 

[Lestronge]

Is it lump sum ? Or can you have it paid out say over a 10 year period . So 120k a year. Thus reducing your tax bill ?

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Some on here have no idea. AD should be a priority signing. I'd be interested to know another player in the NRL who can genuinely play a heap of positions ie fullback, 5/8, halfback, center, wing and is big enough to play in the forwards. He is big, strong and fast. Plus he's a really good kicker ( short, long and goal ). Seems to be an all round nice bloke and a good club man. An asset for any team.

Just needs to improve his defence

 

[Tom Shines]

So if Klemmer departs as expected and Olam is medically retired as looking likely, would we be stronger and would we be happy with Francis Molo and potentially Taylan May as their replacements ?
Yes I know we really need another back rower, but there is nobody available and nobody decent that looks like becoming available anytime soon, so you cannot buy something that is not for sale.
And yes I’d much prefer Spencer Leniu instead of Francis Molo, but I don’t think there is any chance an already struggling Roosters let go of another high quality prop.

Wait for a back rower to drop… Molo has 2 years left on his deal …no thanks

 

[The Chad]

If Thomas Jenkins only gets a T&T at the Panthers- get him in.

 

[user118245]

someone’s gotta bring this up, Hudson or Morgan, if offered is it a yes or no?
