Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[cqtiger]

Our season over so maybe some of these suggested lowball signings may be announced.

 

[hsvjones]

Gee we need to get a hooker for next year, a quality fullback and some aggressive forwards...

We cannot afford to go into next year with Josh R as our hooker and we should seriously look at Sego or Issac Luke.. Will come cheap and they know what is required and have proven it..

I think we did a great job considering who we have missing and believe we would of won yesterday if these players were available - Ben M, Josh A, R Packer, C Thompson, Moses Mbye, M Fonua, J Liddle,

You take 7 players out of any team and they would struggle big time..

Positive side of things is we have discovered a few gems with all the injuries Etc.. Garner, Mikaele, Clark, Momo.

If we can offload maybe Reynolds and / or Mats that would be great as I cannot see Packer going anywhere unfortunately.
Fingers crossed we hear some good news in the next few weeks.

Why didn't we go for Reagan Campbell-Gillard??
Anyone know? ....he's off to Parra.

I'd be offering Woods some money to come back to the Tigers.
He played well yesterday. Something we need.

He would come back in a heartbeat. He was in tears yesterday afternoon at the Robbie farewell. He misses the place.
If you heard him speak on 2GB after the game he could hardly speak. Very emotional.

He has been great for them all year, even though some wont admit it. He was always close to Farah, but looks like he has settled now in Shark territory.

After the way he left there's no way i would have him back, but i dont run the club. To me he's just a buffoon that burnt his bridges.

So did benji and farah. Things get forgotten very quickly.

Guessing it's a cap issue. Parra picked him up for about $600k with panthers covering $300k apparently

 

[WT2K]

Souths won't be re-signing the following players -
Billy Brittain, Jacob Gagan, Mawene Hiroti and Kyle Turner.

Bulldogs won't be re-signing the following players -
Michael Lichaa, Danny Fualalo, John Olive and Nu Brown

 

[AL The Tiger]

John Olive and Kyle Turner would be options I would look at from those lists

 

[teddy23]

Renouf To’omaga seems a prospect, currently at the Dogs coming off the bench providing them with strong performances lately

Off contract end of next year as well - would be cheap too

 

[Russell]

Why didn't we go for Reagan Campbell-Gillard??
Anyone know? ....he's off to Parra.

Because he wouldn't come here for 120k.

Everyone over looks the fact Benji paraded around in his Auckland Blues jersey whilst still under contract here, got the poos cause he thought he was worth more than we were paying, he found out he wasn't, at a few clubs along the way

 

[krayola]

@851 And if Benji was just another player then he wouldn't have been welcomed back. But he isn't. He's one of the best players this century. He's eaten a lot of humble pie and displayed infinitely more maturity than his previous time with us so people treat him a little differently.

Most haven't forgotten that but I think plenty have forgiven. And it's not like our club culture didn't fill him with the entitlement to behave that way.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

Woods if he came subsidised by sharks would be good option

 

[Spacecub]

Billy Brittain, Jacob Gagan, Mawene Hiroti and Kyle Turner.

We need to move away from this clubs bargain buys attitude, theres no one there that would improve our roster

Hiroti, cheap, better than Jennings, plays wing and fullback

Never thought I would agree with you on anything.

I agree with you on this.

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Geez some are hard on Woods considering Robbie and Benji coming back let alone the Chris L situation handling.

I would take him back, he has plenty of years left & is a local junior but most of all ALOT better than any prop we have on the roster by a mile.

 

[cqtiger]

Geez people asking why we didn’t go after RCG? We have no money until or if we can move on Packerlino, McQueen and Reynolds.

I can’t see much of a roster change until 2021 at the earliest.
