Hello Forum.
My signing suggestions whom I believe would strengthen the squad for next year are
Iosia Soliola , Francis Molo , Jackson Ferris & Ilikena Vudogo.
The following year I suggest the Wests Tigers should go all out for are Matt Burton & Isaac Liu. Please give me your thoughts on my suggestions and don't hold back.

Soliola looks like being out for the rest of the year with a fractured face . Might not worry about that signing .

Bateman to Wigan 4 year deal.

Can't blame him if his family is back over there.

Yes he apparently has a daughter back in the UK. And who wrote that Moses was motivated by cash; uncle Isaac.

Francis Molo - would be good as impact prop.
Ilikena Vudago - starred for Fiji at 2018 World Rugby Under 20s Trophy in Romania, still very raw but is a speedster. I would like to see what William Kei, Brad Abbey, Liam Scolari and a few others have to offer first.
I would pass on Jackson Ferris maybe someone like Brayden McGrady would be better.
 
Watched the Titan v Sharks game and am glad we did not get Jai Arrow as he is no where near the $800k he was asking for, whilst he played limited minutes was not a standout.

Hard to stand out in a flogging but did not bend the Line in attack and defence was poor

He’s a 500ker at max

Absolutely, Arrow so overrated. Stupid signing by Souths.
 
With Mbye and Reynolds playing some decent footy surely if this continues they could be possibly moved on as the money they both are on would be better spent elsewhere,The team really needs a halfback that has a decent kicking game,Blake Green on a 1 or 2 year deal could be an option,Douehi could play 6,he has a good running,passing and short kicking game but going good at fb right now

No no Green is managed by Moses

Not for long
 
I was originally against Doueihi moving to 5/8 as I thought he was the wrong shape and his height was a better asset as a fullback but he lacks the speed to cover in defence, get in position defending attacking kicks and most importantly to support other players when they make line breaks.
We have a good (not great) all round halfback who will continue to improve, I think the best style of 5/8 to pair him with is a big, hard running type like Jack Wighton. Good in defence, reasonable passing and kicking game but runs like a 2nd rower and maybe Doueihi could fit that role quite well.

1 Ideally an experienced top tier fullback like Tedesco or RTS
6 Adam Doueihi
7 Luke Brooks
9 Harry Grant/Jacob Liddle/Jake Simpkin (all attacking/creative hookers)

In the short term Jamayne Isaako might be more realistic as fullback, but he does have a career goal kicking record of 81.5%.
 
If moving Doueihi to 5/8 is a better option for the team and so a fullback is required. Off contract at the end of 2020 are Luke Metcalf & Nicho Hynes or off contract at the end of 2021 are Tex Hoy and Jesse Arthars.
 
The way josh Reynolds is playing atm if he can stay fit we would be mad to pay him to play some where els
 
The Kennel seem to believe MCK is joining them for 2.5 years. At the end of the highlights package MCK seems to have a smile on his face whereas Brooks and a couple of others don't look happy.

Surely we aren’t releasing forwards in a time like this, how many are we missing now? We need to keep him
