Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

It’s so annoying when you hear of like 3 different people it’s a done deal then nothing happens haha just goes to show nothing is set in stone till it’s up on the westigers website

You should not pay overs for players but it is something our club never seems to get right.Finally we may have someone in charge who understands this even though the reported money we where prepared to throw at LM was insane

Pretty sure Pascoe said that we did not offer Latrell anything like what was reported.


The figure most tossed around was $3.8m over 4 years. Only slightly higher than Josh Reynold’s.
Seems Doueihi wants a monetary reason to leave Souths and why wouldn’t he want a contract upgrade.

Who cares what he wants. Why not come and earn it. What if he is in reserve grade next year. He probably will be playing reserves unless injuries hit. Where would he play in Souths backline ?

Pretty sure there will be other clubs interested in AD.

It doesn't sound that way does it. It sounds like it's Souths or us and there is a high likelihood he will be playing reserve grade all next year if he stays at Souths.

Didn’t I read Newcastle were interested?

Someone will pick him up Avo, and he'll probably have a good year, while Pascoe sits there banging on about how much we have to spend

Brain dead is correct. Bloody stupid. He would have made a massive difference but we’re going to be also rans again.

You can't be serious. He would not have made a ""massive"" difference. Did you check out the head to head stats that CB posted on (I think) page P2611 re CT and AD ?

At best AD is a minor upgrade on CT at full back. AD adds a ball playing option and a kicking option. CT is a superior ball runner and defender (based on tackles missed).

If AD wants $600k next year and a four year deal, then I can understand why we have walked away.

I am serious. Let’s see how you feel later in the season when he’s playing great footy for another club and we’re in our usual spot outside the 8.

So many people on here underestimate how good the kid is.


Playing great footy in CC for Souths. A player who isn’t going to get a start in first grade at his current club isn’t worth 500k.

He ain’t going to be playing CC for Souths.

im sick of paying overs souths chip in or see you later
JL is the busting centre we need and i would play Mmbye at fullback instead it will be Corey

And whos gonna play hooker?

We have issues.

And as always, the Lebanese can fix it for ya.

Douhei and Lichaa.
Lets go.

Someone else will pick AD up, we'll still have all this dough left over in our cap.

Turdburg will have great delight in fining us because we have not spent 95% of our cap.

Nice one guys.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

i dont mind Licha we coukd do worse than him for sure
Licha 9 and Mmbye or hell even benji at 1 and reynolds at 6 although that would bever happen

The way Madge is he would have prevented Burgess signing.

Crowe: I have a gun Pommy forward, deal is done.Name is Sam Burgess...
Madge: Not paying much for an unproven Pom.
Crowe: I run the club.


With us, Pascoe grins and stumbles and says 'sure Madge'....

End result worst 1-5 in the comp.

But, hey, those cold days in June after another loss will be easier to take as we saved some money...

 

[twentyforty]

We should only accommodate Douehi if the price is right and not make the mistake of paying overs

We shouldn’t confuse the price with the value.
Overs is when you don’t get value for your payment.

 

[Demps]

Licha 9 and Mmbye or hell even benji at 1 and reynolds at 6 although that would bever happen

Would work....
On PlayStation.

Seriously, some wild suggestions these days.

Joshs body wont even hold up more than 6 games.

SAN Francisco 49er’s, a basket case 2 seasons ago, have a quarterback who started 3 games in 4 seasons at his previous club, a starting running back setting records after being a nobody at 6 previous teams, two rookies looking like superstars in crucial positions on defence along with a few second season tough guys, an ageing reject cornerback making crucial plays. 50-1 to win the Super Bowl at the start of the season. Got a good coach and plenty of spirit. Sound a lot like the Tigers 2020.

 

[haberfield_tiger]

No one picking up AD for $600. Its laughable souths have him on this contract and now wants 4 yrs with tigers. I say avoid. Get a real fullback like paps with blistering speed. Id stick with CT this yr. As for lichha dogs could not wait to get rid of him. He always seemed to pass when he should of ran and ran when he should of passed. No game smarts or match awareness. ET could do better thats saying something.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

i doubt Ayoub will budge on the asking price for AD and tigers wont budge it is no chance of happening.
1.4 for JL is pretty good for proven first grader and madge knows what he will get with JL worth the gamble

Stick a fork in Reynolds, he’s done.

He ain’t going to be playing CC for Souths.

He won’t be their fullback or their 5/8. Or their centre or winger. I’m not sure where he fits in.

Nobody’s paying 500k for a number 14

 

[fibrodreaming]

AD is seriously about to be a break out star.

What is it that Souths don't see that you see ? They are happy to let him walk.

They are backing Latrell.
They wanna be an indigenous power house club.

Its business.

We are talking potential. And I'm not prepared to pay overs for potential. If the sky is the limit, why are Souths prepared to let him go ?
