Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[bigsiro]

Was there some talk about Sezer being available?
Surely we have to make a play

 

[InBenjiWeTrust]

and why oh why do we keep Jennings???

 

[TYGA]

We have no star players to make up for the shortcomings of others. We need a strong 17 with no deficiencies to compete. Jennings, Seyfarth, Lawrence, Clarke are not at the level we need for an evenly balanced side.

It’s the reason we lose to weaker sides and have done so consistently they know they can go at our winger all day and Benji in defence. Our bench is weak and they run over the top of us when they are on. I don’t know the stats but it looks that way to me.

Sydney Morning Herald reporting that we are keeping a close eye on De Belin, if he’s found innocent they’re willing to sign him on decent money.

It’s a big risk in my eyes he hasn’t played in a while and is almost 30 however before he was suspended he was an origin level player.

People need to be real. Our side isn’t a top side, most of our players wouldn’t be in the top 17 at other clubs who are in the top 8. That’s the reality.

We have players playing out of position because we don’t have other options. We have a forward pack that often doesn’t know how to go forward. Our bench would suite a bench in reggies.

Madge has over $2M of his roster not even playing, we have at least another season of this.

Wouldn't be too fussed on sezer, We have walters, madden, taulua and doueihi who can all play five eight, would rather see any one of them have a go then buy sezer. But i also wouldn't complain if we did sign him.
And same for saab he has only played 3 nrl games can't judge his ability yet but with these new rules him being 9 foot tall would definetly help us hahaha.

I would like to see Walters get a crack at the 6 jumper this year to see how he goes, and on Seizer, he was a five eighth at Canterbury, whilst out of left field, it could work

Yea same walters looks solid and gives his 100% out there.

What about looking at Burton
He is the kind of player who could Take the pressure of Brooks IMO

You won’t want to rely on him to kick you a field goal.

Titans didn't have a good team bu their coach certainly outsmartened us.

We played poorly and the ref let them get away with murder in the ruck. We were also robbed at the end they were inside the 10 on the kickoff.
If we fix our bench and get a few players to add to this team we will beat the lesser sides consistently. It’s not about one game we have been in this position for over almost a decade

If he’s found innocent why would you? It’s the exact same as the Reynolds situation if that happens

Very different cases.

If he’s found innocent it’s the exact same - accused of something he didn’t do, he would be a free man whos a very good footballer

Let's agree to disagree on this one.
