Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

What Kobe does add is another prop as Twal could go back to prop where we have the least depth. Would be a good group.

Who knows what Richo has up his sleeve though.

Plus both Newcastle and Brisbane both have salary cap pressures and Richo said players become available because of that.

Offer Roosters new 5/8 Galvin's money, he is better than Galvin plus he is a good goalkicker as well.

One will be Tylan May.....100%

Is May eligible to play this year if he does sign ?

Yes

People seem to be excited about this potential KPP signing.
Surely there has to be better options available, i am definitely not seeing what everyone else is hoping he brings to the Tigers.

I’m not excited by it just think it’s happening.

I hope KPP is not one of the signing , again he is very poor against the warriors, we can do better than this bugger

 

[Tcat]

Yeah. Just watching the knghts game, KPP is either shit or playing like someone that doesnt want to be in his current team. Not seeing anything to be excited about atm but hell Ponga looks shit and most commentators cream in their pants over him constantly. Either way, we will find out soon.

Yes he is tall & relatively strong but isn’t a tackle buster, aerial threat or energiser bunny. He doesn’t seem that quick just lopes. I’m starting to agree.

He is playing in a terrible Knights side.

 

[pawsandclaws1]

His halves are not great, his team aren't familiar with his game and therefore don't make best use of his game. Also when he signed, Will Pryce and Dominic Young were with the Knights but both are gone.

His defence is very soft for a big man. Does not look all that interested and just seems to do the bare necessities. Not worth big money at all.

Lopes is the perfect description.
Also no mongrel or sting in his defence (Seyfarth at least has a bit of it regardless of his ability), KPP could possibly blend into a well drilled Storm system with gun players around him but I don't think Tigers would be a good fit for him.
As the second row has been a problematic position for quite some time I would prefer to be patient and pick up a gun signing.

Staggs is prepared to lower his contract demands to stay at the Broncos
Laybutt i though was going to be a marquee signing for PNG??

KPP would be a dud signing

kai piss p*#r please no

 

[TheKhan]

KPP would be a dud signing

Yeah that's my thought as well. Pawsandclaws seems to be a fan and defend the potential signing with his observations the other day.
I don't disagree with him on all the points he made. But I just haven't seen anything to be excited about him landing here.

 

[Vicious]

I agree.
I was initially keen on him potentially joining us, but his good games are few and far between.
Not sure what second rower we can sign, but I don’t think KPP is the answer.

 

[tigerballs]

We were in discussions with him over the off season. Any news now? I’d love to have him. @tigerballs

He re-signed with the Broncs til 2027.

He is not too loved by the Newcastle supporters.
