Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Some also do it while live streaming then get let go by their current club two months later.

then turn up at a new club and be a hero and absolutely every fan of his new club
pretends they don't know why he was released?
It's a funny game....

Funnily enough, the video became quite hard to find again after it all went down...
I found it a while back and sent it to myself 😂😂😂

That was the point I was trying to make, players with sheer speed such as Addo-Carr seem to always destroy us, yet we do not ever show any interest in these type of players.

Raised the point a while ago that if Benji's attacking strategy is to play expansive you need more speed in the outside backs.

Thanks for this update. He is written up in the Titans' pages but he is a West Maitland junior who was part of the Keebra Park SHS Scholarship scheme. For those interested, see the attached page.

Junior Development

Tyler Harper continued at halfback for the Tweed Heads Seagulls in Round Six of the NRRRL U18 competition against the Kyogle Turkeys with Tyler Harper kicking four conversions with the initial conversion coming in the 11th minute from mid-way between the goal posts and corner post on the left...

So as of 2026 we currently have Latu Fainu at 7 to partner Luai at 6, KPP on the right edge and Taylan May at left centre.
While myself and I assume almost every Wests Tigers supporter agrees these changes do make us slightly stronger, are they enough to turn is into a genuine top 8 team ?
I believe it’s not quite enough, we need 1 more quality outside back and 1 more quality forward as well as a quality back up halfback to compete with Heath Mason to be our next in line for our NRL halves if we have injuries or a drop in form.
Even then we need more quality added to our depth as it’s very unlikely the likes of Adam Doueihi and Charlie Staines will hang around as purely depth players.
Do we have enough speed and attacking threat in our backs and do we have enough tackle busting ability in our forwards, the short answer is no, that’s what we need to add if we are being serious about finally cracking the top 8 with Benji in charge.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, you cannot challenge to win a competition with a team full of hard working grafters with very limited attacking threat.
Latu Fainu looks like he’s a player who can definitely help with this, but he won’t be able to do it consistently without some extra help of 1-2 more quality attacking players.

Getting there but agree still at least 3 more quality players needed to be seriously competitive next year.
Plus I’m not sold on Taylan May at this stage so would like to see another centre come out of nowhere as well.

if that was why he was released what is Z dockarclay still doing at the club ??????

won’t let facts get in the way of ur narrative tho

 

[TheClaws]

Nope - The Club really needs to win Football games.
Speed and Experience helps that happen.

Turuva and Skelton don't hold a Candle to Addo Carr - On either
Even Combined...

I think the issue is inside of our wingers...when is the last time our wingers have had the space to take on the opposition in either strength or speed? By the time the ball makes it to them they are either too close to the sideline and need to cut back in to the sliding defence, or they are given the ball with the defender right on top of them...get them within 15m of the tryline and they are both great finishers. Even JAC would struggle with the quality of ball our wingers get.

 

[mtd#2]

How easily can we get out of the Royce Hunt contract?

Yesterdays numbers from KOE are alarming.

21 minutes
1 run for 7m
60% tackle efficiency

Not exactly screaming for reinclusion.

How the FK do you have one run as a forward in 21 minutes...

Taking the piss.

He probably didn't partake and that's why he got punted. Didn't fit into the Eastern Suburbs culture.

 

[Vicious]

💯
His entire strategy will not work without an injection of speed and attacking x-factor.
He needs to make some hard calls and free up some money to re recruit a few of these types of players, otherwise we will continue to be slow, boring, predictable and remain cellar dwellers

He wasn’t wiping his nose when he came back into view. B Smith looks cooked. It’s no coincidence that the two most shady dudes in that video are now gone from the club. You gotta be pretty naive to believe the Roosters released May to give other players an opportunity. The most flimsy excuse you could imagine, and only one you’d come up with if you wanted to avoid stating the real reason

i honestly believe it was the fact may would not conform to the eastern suburbs culture . he spoke abt it on a podcast how robbo felt a type of way that may refused to move out of western Sydney , that’s why he likes benji because he encourages him to be himself , bumbag and all.

Also don’t forget they re-signed May for two years AFTER that video surfaced.

Facts?
You obviously haven't seen the Video then?
If you had - You wouldn't comment with such obnoxious stupidity.

Now if you haven't seen the video - How are you arguing exactly?

Was ZDC the guy who clearly did a line of Coke in the Video
OR
was it the guy you're pointlessly defending?

It’s been answered twice. They weren’t the ones coming back into view wiping their noses and looking off their gourd.

You're not mentioning the big sniffing noise as his head dips from shot...

If he had gone to the Sharks - He'd be a Junky...
He came here so it's just a misunderstanding!!
