Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Cairnstigers]

my canterbury friend said a bit like reynolds they want Mmbye but again they want to screw tigers down on dollars they dont want to tip in very much at all so tigers unlikely to go that low

Their crazy
If they sign Mbye and Reynolds it could move them from Last to 9th

I want to see Nofoaluma play FLB! He would be an absolute GUN through the middle! This is the guy that kept Tedesco on the wing in the juniors when he played FLB! Can’t believe we haven’t tried him there for 7 years! The answer is right under their nose! A tackle breaking machine, makes 200+ metres on a regular basis from the wing and would be dynamite sweeping from edge to edge! Poses a real threat to the defensive halfback with in turn opens space on the edges which Doueihi and definitely Mbye can’t do due to their slowness!!

There's an article on The Roar today arguing that Nofo should be fullback.

St George Illawarra set to keep de Belin and go hunting for a prop.
Excuse me we have one over here will pay part of the freight hurry before we have to keep him

St George recruitment and retention is worse than ours

I think it’s on par, but I’d they take Packer they’re worse.

They’ve had some stinkers lately. Merrin for Luciano, Issac Luke, they keep holding on to JDB.

My uncle is friends with legendary recruitment officer Peter Mulholland and he said when Peter was there they would just sign people without even asking him. Massive boys club who does whatever they want and have got it wrong a lot the last few years

We signed Robert Jennings and then Joey on supposedly $600k. And took Packer off them. We’re no better.

I’ll find out Thursday playing golf with some Dogs heavy hitters. I don’t think they will ever take these players back if past conversations are anything to go by.

Just as bad.

Anyone hear the news story that TPJ is staying? Notice how the mysterious third party deal scandal has gone off the boil?

I'd be overwhelmed with joy if we could somehow offload Packer. A shame about Reynolds not wanting to go to the UK. He'd go well over there as opposed to missing out here.

He was sacked, but they have suspended that punishment for 12 months. That punishment wont be imposed if he meets certain conditions. A weird way of doing things.

They don’t want any more stories coming out. Reminiscent of Andrew Gee disappearing overnight a few years back.

if that's the case keep Mbye. He can cover a few positions.

Yeah and just put him in either the 6 or 1 for next year. He's not a centre or a 9, that's for sure.

Yes or put him in 14. probably where he is most useful. But if grant is gone he will probably battle it out with Simpkin

Did Jacob Liddle disappear.

He will start mate.

Very erratic, no ball playing ability and got errors in him. Playing well, keep him on the wing fanx

is anyone worried about this meeting today between coach and playing group regarding communication issues?

Not if it finally brings change.

I will only be worried if the board back the dissenting players no matter who and how many there are

Good God you actually want to make us worse?

I played 2 mins of fullback once. Can I get a run too?

I’d say his lost the money but guaranteed the rest of his 650k and to remain in Brisbane.

Notice how his supposedly repented after an unofficial sounding out to all clubs came back with minimal interest..

 

[the_third]

Who did the table with salaries? Can’t find it. I’d love to see salary and number of players by position (currently playing ie talau a winger, mbye a centre etc). Keen to understand the comment in the media that we have too much money tied up in the halves

And the Warriors who offered him significantly more upfront weren't competitive. View that in light of Peter V'landys comments this morning about needing a competitive Brisbane team to ensure revenue from commercial TV is maintained.

Article from fox sports this morning has one line at the end. ‘Wests Tigers could also look to offload Josh Aloiai and Matt Eisenhuth to clear out much needed cap space’

Completely rubbish in my opinion. Aloiai seems one of the few players Madge actually likes and he’s been playing well. Eiso is off contract so he’s not even ours to ‘offload’
