Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[craigtob]

Ok. So we should replace Api, Jarome, Taylan, Terrell, Turuva and Skelton.

Who would you replace them with that would be better? I'm open to the criticism of the signings, but you've got to put down the alternatives.

Also, objectively we are not going backwards. We already have 1 more win than last year with 6 games remaining. That is not backwards. You may think we could have done more, but it is definitely not backwards.

I never said we need to replace the above...... my issue is we are still a mile off the top 8, or even the top ten teams, as you have pointed out signing the above players and only winning 1 more game so far is that really a improvement.

 

[weststigerman]

Great news signing Javon Andrews.

We have enough halves depth now, can we please sign some high impact middles?

taylan just has to get a healthy deal. think they may hold off to ensure he’s committed but a club will snap him up if we don’t.

 

[Camel2281]

Or get promises from Craig Bellamy and Frank Ponissi...

Fermor played for Qld though

 

[Camel2281]

Fermor would make a good #13

I'd have him and KPP on our edges. Samuela as a middle forward

 

[Kelce68]

He's wanted out for a while.

Says who?

Family all in Sydney.

So? Jett Cleary's family are all in Australia.

And?

 

[Camel2281]

2026;

- Kai Pearce-Paul
- Jock Madden
- Javon Andrews

Taylan too?

 

[Demps]

Taylan too?

Hes a must, imo.

But considering him a 2025 signings.
Needs to be extended ASAP

 

[Fish88]

Just need some forwards now 🙂

 

[weststigerman]

I think we’d be silly to go after an expensive edge back rower. Samuela and KPP are our starters. A depth second rower would be good though.

We need to invest the rest into prop/lock. Go after some Wahs middles.

 

[mikey]

All 20 Titans fans are gonna be fuming

Too busy doing car-jackings, home invasions and chroming.

all izzy katoa’s family moved with him to QLD too 😭 some stuff on here is just too funny

Do we reckon Andrews would be top 30?

 

[Jimmy Jazz]

13 Fermor
12 Samuela
11 Kai Pierce-Paul

I’d be stoked with that back row.

Would need one rep quality prop and utility forward short of a very good pack.

It is doable…

Fermor is an out n out edge backrower, predominantly on the left, always has been, not a 13.

 

[weststigerman]

Exactly. Sign players in a position of need, not just any player who becomes available.

 

[tigahhh]

Do we reckon Andrews would be top 30?

my guess is development next year & top 30 2027

 

[Tim Sheens]

You don’t make origin if you don’t put in effort and aren’t consistent

Yet Stefano Utoikamanu made it again this year over Terrell May.

 

[boonboon]

Do we reckon Andrews would be top 30?

A bit shit they wernt clear on that.
