Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Disappointing if we release Aloiai that easily.

Hopefully they have a plan B to nab someone else?

There’ll still be 3 spots in the roster - well two considering Seyfarth has signed despite no announcement from the club. We’ll have to find some guys from somewhere

Hi @THE_POM who do you think is going to be no.1 next year if Laurie does not get the early release?

Most Likely Mbye if Laurie can't be secured earlier.

Thanks for that even though I'm worried having Mbye there. Would love to see Kepaoa having a go at no.1

Do we have any junior second rowers in our ranks we can gamble on for a too 30 spot?

 

[happy_tiger]

Seyfarth and Jo O ......O God give me the strength .....

May work in our favor, the transaction value ($$$$$) for JA could be gifted to Panthers for the release of D Laurie!!

Hope Joe is nothing like Adam Blair. That still gives me nightmares.

If that’s the case, and we’re at 29, then that could be it. Unless the rules have changed we don’t need to fill the last spot till June 30th. Tamou, Roberts and Joe are solid gains. And we have cash to splash for 2022 as well.

We should have kept him and made him play this year. Would have been a good pack.

 

[Magpie1969]

Can't Walters take his son back even injured appears a better option than Albert Kelly and David Mead. I thought only WT sign retirees.

Any likelihood that we're releasing any of these players that aren't likely to play much? Bradley, Walters, Packer etc or even Garner?

 

[tiger_scott]

If we keep up this trend of signing players better than the bloke that they're replacing we'll finally get somewhere. We'll have a good hard crack at the 8 in 2021. We could do something not unlike 15/16 years ago......

You’ve put James Roberts twice mate. I think it’s 28 if Joe comes and Aloiai leaves

 

[tiger_scott]

^ he's that fast he ran from 12 to 21 to get a second ice-block

Nah, 28 spots including Seyfarth with Joe coming in and Josh going out. You’ve got jimmy the jet on there twice ?

Most Likely Mbye if Laurie can't be secured earlier.

Thanks for that even though I'm worried having Mbye there. Would love to see Kepaoa having a go at no.1

The thing that worries me about Kepaoa at the back is he is suspect under high balls just as much as mbye is. I'm sure he is working on it but he was tested during the year and had issues with them. Mbye did have his best game at fullback last year. So maybe start with Mbye at 1 and AJ on the wing until he gets confidence in that aspect and then move him to the 1 and mbye at 14 unless we get Laurie

Wouldn’t think they will worry to much about it, if Laurie is coming the following year as FB?
