Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Plus Luai provided Penrith a great platform by leading them to second in the minor premiership last year, with Clearly only playing in 10 of those matches.

I expected a bit more on game day from Jerome this year, though next season, that will again depend on how Benji decides to use our halves. His choice to prioritise the toddler traitor from the beginning of the off-season ended up derailing our season.

Yeah!

I’m starting a Facebook group called friends who turned on each other reunited by their shared hatred of Lachlan Galvin.

Mmmm I really am.

nice, does anyone know is madden has/can play 9 to rest api if needed?

Hasn't before but I reckon he could do it for short stints.

 

[Dennisspicer1]

I’ll take him… rumours are that Storm have already paid him $500k to walk away … could be cheap

At the WestTigers he would only have to do the slightest thing to be sent off, and get 4 weeks on the sideline. Was he not able to play in last 2 Grand Finals because he was suspended. We do not need to replace Naden with a bigger one.

I’m starting to be intrigued by Bird and Hunt. The only way is up because they were rock bottom this year.

NAS at $450 per season for 2 years. I’d take it.

Nathan played less games as Luai and almost single handedly
dragged his team into the 8.

But on reflection champion @batboy, could the 4 times winning Premiership half back have changed things with the "cattle" that the Wests Tigers had compared to his amazing Penrith team?

EG:


Jahream Bula

Sunia Turuva

Taylan May

Adam Doueihi

Jeral Skelton

Jarome Luai

Nathan Cleary

Terrell May

Apisai Koroisau

Fonua Pole

Samuela Fainu

Sione Fainu

Alex Twal

 

[Tito Santana]

Probably our best at present. Although if Toa dosnt aim up I would like to see Makasini in for him at centre and Skelton wing.

X2.

Toa is too injury prone for my liking.

 

[Juice]

Nathan didn’t win a comp without Luai.

Boom! In your face.

Technically you are right but that comeback against Broncos didn’t start until Luai left the field.

Not just Australians. So many tourists here some places you'd swear you weren't in Japan, but also people on pr visas for work.
Just like Australia they need workers to support an ageing population; without them there's no workers, no tax revenue, no economy. Just like Australia, some people just see 'invader' without understanding why they need them here.
Main difference is wages are much lower than in Australia. No nationally set minimum hourly casual rate. Tokyo is around 1,300 yen per hour(13 dollars) country areas as low as 700 yen an hour. Buggered if I know how people survive on that. Monthly pay for permanent workers is low too.
Off to the Honda Collection Hall Tuesday. Big Collection of Honda bikes n cars next to Motegi Twin racetrack. Always been a Honda fan. Have had a 79 XL500 since new. Looks as ugly as me these days but still starts first kick if my knee is up to it.

Man massive honda fan here too.

Civic got me around for several years till it died of rust. Brought the exact same model again and it died at 350,000k.

Great cars and great bikes.

Didn't we sign Luai to be the controling halfback 🤔

Well Hes certainly paid to be. Im a Luai fan But hes in the top 10 players in the league. i accept it was his first season with pretty unsettled combinations, i do believe hes game will improve next year cause it needs to, or we end up with same type of season as 25. With that kind of money comes responsibilities, and finishing off our sets well is one of them.

Just getting my head around all the different settings big change coming from a 2005 commodore lol.

I'm not that fussed if we lose Luai honestly. I want to see a big improvement in the red zone, his defence has been good, but he needs to be winning games for us.

We have to stop trying to turn five eights into halfbacks. I think Douhie will be the 7 come round 1.

 

[upthetigers]

Douhie focus on kicking game in preseason. It's a weakness of ours and limiting attacking opportunities.

Technically you are right but that comeback against Broncos didn’t start until Luai left the field.

In fairness aswell it was Nathan’s defence that contributed to 2 of broncos tries

Erroneous

Have you seen the new Toyota's in the USA you have to pay $30 a month subscription to use the GPS and music player

And in England they are talking about changing you to drive your own car on the road

Sounds lame.

Tito has a 2010 Kia Sportage. Just keeps going. Probably the greatest car of all time. 500,000kms on it.

 

[Tucker]

We all witnessed Luai's struggles this season Tuck I think the whole forum will be hoping he has a blinder next season for the good of team improvement.

Yes, me included.
So if he does so, how does that make me look like a goose for criticising how he played this year?

I was replying to the post below alone hadn't read anything else

He is a pounce that needs to pull his finger out.

Come on mate it was some lighthearted humour pointing out that he might surprise you, why so sensitive.

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

The love from the media for the slimy Eels and Ryles is sickening..total opposite to the Tigers!
