Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

@swag_tiger They are one of the same.

Tony Adams is not the Lurker..

 

[balmain boy]

Adams is the Mole, Ritchie is the lurker...

 

[momo_amp_medo]

@TheDaBoss we dogged a bullet with that potential signing.

 

[momo_amp_medo]

Don’t take it as a given but I got some chatter that WT have spoken to Marsters brother who plays with the Dragons. Can play fullback, centre and wing and is a better goal kicker than Esan.
From what I saw from him he is a reasonably good young player and only 19.

 

[Madge]

@momo_amp_medo btw its his cousin not brother... and yes that has been mentioned on here by THE POM recently as someone we are targeting but not yet inquired about.

 

[momo_amp_medo]

@Madge Thanks my mistake.

Its simple

Kick manly out, and we take trojevic and taupau

 

[westy81]

@851

So they’ll have 3 players on a million each
How does that work having 3 players on 1 million each of your 10 million in salary cap ?

 

[boonboon]

@westy81 who cares what ot does mean though is they will struggle to retain others and we should be thinking of who we can steal. Taupau, Fonua- Blake, one of the centres - Walker, Suli or mayby Brad Parker who kicks goals and their hookers

 

[joebob]

@boonboon sound logic! And this morning's news from the Mole suggests we are after Parker

The Mole: Wests Tigers circling Manly's Brad Parker
Wests Tigers are attempting to poach arguably the most improved player in the NRL this season: Manly centre Brad Parker.

Parker was just of a run-of-the-mill performer in a disappointing Manly team last year and is on a bargain basement contract.

But he has been one of the big success stories of Des Hasler’s resurgent Sea Eagles this season and is playing great attacking football for Manly, scoring tries and setting up his outside men.


His defence has also improved and the Tigers are prepared to offer him good money to switch camps.

The powerful centre is happy at Manly - but the club will need to find more money if they want to keep him.

[weststigerman]

Should be an upgrade on Fonua

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

Parker has been decent this year. Fairly reliable in defence and while not he's not the type of centre you'll find crossing the stripe he's still fairly solid with ball in hand. He can break a tackle in the games I've watched him.

 

[TYGA]

I was getting some heat when I posted Parker to the Tigers a few weeks ago. We are weak in the outside backs if he comes cheap will compete for a starting role and provide depth.

We need to continue with solid we’ll priced players and end overpaying players with big names ie: Reynolds, Packer, McQueen, ET.

We really need some strike out wide though which is why Madge has moved Mbye to the centres.

 

[TheDaBoss]

he should come to us straight away


any other club is better than manly!

 

[GNR4LIFE]

I'll believe it when I hear it from The Pom

 

[Sunnycoast_tiger]

might be having a good season but realistically he is no better than Jennings or Momirovaski.

 

[pawsandclaws1]

@GNR4LIFE Parker is no speedster so if this is true. we should be getting our new recruitment team to sign us a lightning fast winger to sit outside of him.
