Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Would absolutely take Tupou back.

Covers centre & wing, plenty of high end potential. You can't have too many big, fast, athletic players in the squad.

If he is the quality of player you bring up in times of injury, if he is the KOE talent level- the club is in good shape.

I'd say he is more talented than Skelton, but less developed. He was also learning while being part of a very poor squad. We have missed the power running of Skelton when injured. Tupou fixes that.
 
Theres no material at all that suggests thaf the cops told him that he was "required" to go to the station.

All weve got is his assurance, the club dont believe him, i think the club is probably right.

Why doesnt someone ask the cops?

Got some third hand info last night at an Origin party from someone who knows player agents supposedly. Take with a grain/bucket of salt...

Galvin deal should be announced by COB Friday as there was some hold up over small print. This is probably the non-disclosure clause but could be something else related to compensation. Also, deal is closer to $1M per year with third party deals so expect Lachy to rock up in some commercials next year.

Also, once Galvin deal is done WT will announce new signings. I think one is likely KPP for 2026 but could be before June 30 thus why its taking longer to announce. But interestingly enough, we are getting 2 more signings. One could be from UK and the other one is apparently a 'big' name. Not sure who but the hint was it could be from 'up north'. Maybe Broncos?

He was aggressively vague and very drunk so could all be BS but thought I'd share anyway.

Tyrone May &....

No it wasnt harmless, it was personally malicious and hes still abusing me.

Hes not interested in any answers, hes on the hate.

And hes picked on someone who can stand up for themselves.

Not that i did....
But how is this any different to picking on Jordan for prioritising a domestic violence over footy training?

Just went through some of your posts and you don't mind "abusing" Aaron Woods and Madge on here. Seems to be ok to throw stones but not take any accountability or explain what you write.

Go get some help lad.

PUtting you in my ignore list

Jordan Miller has not exactly had the best time of it and tbh, no one knows the full story, so it's not fair to speculate.

As far as his ability goes, he wasn't worth keeping around and that’s the right choice by the club.

Everything else is his personal matter. He'd do well to just knuckle down and try to get himself fit to make a comeback wherever that is.

Thank goodness for that small mercy.

Had his notebook handy.

Tupou is overrated with butter fingers to boot

He has signed a modest contract with the Eels - I really liked him

200k is almost minimum wage. Players on 200k are usually number 28-29 on the roster.

Staines and Naden are both on double that.

People really are out of touch with salaries and rises from the cap increase.

Not out of touch just don't want to offer more for a guy who will play mostly second grade if he returns $150K is the minimum for a top 30 player or is it $120K ?

Good post. It is easy to criticise Tupou but when you realise he was inexperienced when introduced into a poor squad, he did okay. I hope Richardson is going to return him to WTs.
