Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Spud_Murphy]

We could probably make a play for Mitch Moses after the last few weeks ?????????????

Well we have a record of bringing back the ex's.

I would draw the line at that one though!

If we go into next season with Mbye and Brooks as our halves we may as well throw in the towel

If we don't substantially upgrade our pack then Joey Johns and Wally Lewis couldn't get us into the semis.

Last night when Penrith were camped on Parra's line for ages, possession was 70/30 to Penrith, Cronk said "It is up to Moses to change the momentum", not forwards, but a half, and Cronk of all people should know

Good game managers can turn momentum around in situations like that. All it takes is one well placed kick down the field with a good chase and you can turn momentum. Cameron Smith does it all the time as did Cronk when he played.

Apparently Dean Young is on a radar as Assistant Coach is Maguure looks to get some fresh support staff in. Tamou apparently a done deal for 2 years and we are the only genuine suitor for JAC

100% correct Cronk. A great half back that can manage a game are like gold.

Wonder what coaches will be on the outer. Probably Hodgson and Andrew Webster I would imagine as the other coaches are pretty new

I’ve heard Griffin wants young at the Steelers now Flanagan got the arse

 

[Magpie1969]

If Dean Young wants to be an NRL Head Coach he needs to experience life at other clubs besides ST Chokers. Apparently he is very highly thought of and in demand.

Likely announced this afternoon re Tamou

 

[Fraze23]

Young would be an astute signing. I don't know what Hodgson brings to the table other than being a club legend and Webster has been around for an eternity. Time for some fresh blood!

Recruiting from teams that suck just as much..

The Wests Tigers way

Last night when Penrith were camped on Parra’s line for ages, possession was 70/30 to Penrith, Cronk said “It is up to Moses to change the momentum”, not forwards, but a half, and Cronk of all people should know

Easy to say but in reality that's going for a low percentage play and making it work. A early kick for a 40/20? A chip and chase? If it doesn't work you have given up that short rest while you were in attack and are defending again.

Cronk is much more skilful and aggressive in the commentary box than he ever was on the field. His big move was a pass to a forward who passed back to Slater running between Cronk and the forward, it worked about 1 in 20 times.

Did he suggest how he would change the momentum ?

Besides, what does that mean, (change the momentum) when a team has defended multiple sets on their own line ?

Can I suggest that Cronk does not have any experience of playing behind a pack that is being regularly dominated. Can you name one crap pack that Cronk has played behind ?

I am not an admirer of Moses, but I will not be too harsh on him when they are defending multiple sets on their line.

I pray he hasnt signed he hasnt signed Tamou, with every fibre of my being, unless Madge see's serious leadership issues. Tamou is just a decade older, lesser tank version of Twal... Put Twal in the props.

He's like a successful Twal. And yes the club has extremely serious leadership issues. We don't have a single on field leader. Not one.

And losing a pro like Lawrence at training means we need a new guy for the kids to look up to and model themselves on off the field.

Neg rep me all you like, but if you think Tamou is the answer, I will have 2 yrs from all reports to remind you. 100m a week in the top team in the league and you think he is a solution....

145m a week.

Tedesco set for $1.2 million a year over the next 6 years with the Chooks. That’s a hell of a lot of teeth.
Edit: Fox ‘experts’ think he is being smart with taking ‘less’ to stay with them.

Looks like the Rorters have upgraded from a Sombrero to a Gazebo

Have you forgotten? They have Aubusson retiring, Ryan Hall going back to England and most likely SBW going back to Toronto. That should free up a quarter of their cap.
