Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Good player.

Bizza is on the way out when his contract ends, they can't afford him. Probably off to PNG.

There's another McClean brother floating around.

Wonder what the Penrith backline in 2 years or so will look.

The way that club produces quality players is amazing. Their average players are produced into competent first graders. That is where we need to be.

No NRL club has got a record as good as our with releasing/not resigning players.

Very, very few have come back to bite us or improved much once leaving us.
In 10 years the only guy to make big improvement after leaving is Jeremy Marshall King (eventually)
We haven't been burnt by anyone.

Some juniors without first grade experience, yes, but that is the same with every club.

Rubbish
McIntyre, Tatola, TeMaire, Addo Carr, Paseka, Kautoga, Ray Stone…
are just a few I can think of in the bat of an eyelid that would improve our team not just then, but even still now

Who do you want them to sign mate ?

I'd be looking at Jacob Preston, J'maine Hopgood, Ryan and Toby Couchman

All are off contract at the end of 2027

TeMaire, Tatola, Paseka, Stone never played first grade. All juniors.
Kautoga played one game here, was bog average and he is still bog average.
McIntyre had a crap stint with the Titans after us and is a fringe first grader bordering on bog average
Addo Carr played here more than 10 years ago

As I stated, we haven't lost anyone in the last 10 years that have improved significantly when they left us, except for some juniors but every team loses gun juniors to other teams.

At the time was anyone screaming from the roof about losing these guys (except maybe addo Carr who didn’t wait to see our offer because the CEO was away and Melb was attractive)

Plenty come and go prior to realising their own ceiling and it’s just not the club wanting them it’s the player wanting to stay rather than go to greener pastures.

Could we have done better maybe.

We’ll need a few for next year I think .., but yeah sure I’ll take them

Gee I like Te Maire a lot. Really admire the guy.
