Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[lathami]

You might need to read what I wrote again...
I listed (Just a few) things that have happened at WT's since Gus advised Ciraldo to NOT come to us.

FYI - Pretty sure Sheens was sacked.
(Context is your friend)

Still a massive snake. What the dogs were better than us when they were wiping the floor of the comp for years before we took over?
From memory he was advising signing anyone to sign a young coach fir 5 years is stupid, then he did it!

Says a lot when the clown who wrote it doesn't even know how many rounds have been played. Hopefully he hasn't seen in to the future.

So he will be leaving in 12 months??

No - but I reckon that'd be a Pearce-Paul signing - 🤪 🤪 🤪 🍷🍷🍷

Also why is Staines being back announced 50 hours before the game and updated by NRL.com?

A few have heard …but they are obviously very shy and keeping the news to themselves

No

Have you though?

No

I saw in a discord and I asked in here but the person after said they meant signing

Really hope the club and TDS can come to a resolution. He needs to be patient as he will be playing more and more minutes of NRL as time goes on and within a couple of years he’ll take over - he’ll be 21 or so. He needs that time to get fitter and stronger and learn from the master.
The club needs to look after him properly in the meantime.

Was that just before the Wests Tigers
- Sacked their Entire Board
- Sacked their CEO
- Sacked their NRL Head Coach
and
Won 3 Wooden Spoons?

Are you saying he was wrong?

Gus also said at the time that the bulldogs needed an experienced coach and weren’t interested in Ciraldo (cough cough)

Guessing because any changes to the named 23 would have to be in before the 24 hour cut off

Pearce-Paul Staines swap sauce from Harry Balls.

Payne Haas comes off contract in November 👀

If I was the Bears I would offer him 1.4 million a season he is honestly worth 2 player's

Doesn’t he already get that at the Broncos ?
1.1 million under the salary cap and 300k from 3rd party deals ?

I think he could get 600K in third parties in Perth

But what ever the cost is I would go after him maybe first 2 million dollar player with TPA's

Would be a great signing if true. Some people don't rate him based on some of his performances, but he would be much better suited here than at Newcastle. He has suffered more than anyone from the poor halves play and instability at Newcastle.

Attacking backrowers like KPP need a good quality half inside attracting defenders and giving good ball. The best backrowers have good halves inside of them. Katoa with Hughes, Olakua'atu with DCE, Martin with Cleary etc. Even Crichton has struggled this year with Keary now gone.

It also opens up Seyfarth to move back to the bench who can cover middle and edge, which also provides the front row depth that we need.

Surely Cook or Lids get the 9 on speed.
