Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[sleeve]

We need speed around the ruck,as well as attacking skill.I think Simkin and Maddison are the players.

Trent Barrett has made enquiries about getting Paul Momorovski to Bulldogs for 2021. I have no idea if Tigers are entertaining the idea but Barrett definitely wants him for next year. My source is high up in Bulldogs.

We’ve got a heap of centre and more coming through juniors. We’d be fine if we let him go.



I reckon Momo is a more reliable centre than BJ and JTJ and is far less likely to cost us games than either of the others

Momo not in the same class as either of them

Do not underestimate the Momo. He is the quiet achiever. Not flashy, but a bloody good footballer. There's a reason Melbourne wanted him for Harry Grant, and there's a reason the Dogs want him.

I didnt say he was in the same class just that i feel he is more reliable than they are.Both BJ and JTJ are far more likely to have shockers imho

All Melbourne wanted from that swap was the opportunity to give Grant a years experience in first grade. It had nothing to do with momirovski

I think 2021 will be a revealing year for us as long as COVID stays at bay. There are so many unknowns in regards to young players. I personally think it’s too early to entertain the idea of selling momirovski to bulldogs. But one year in we will know. Same with Simpkin, Liddle, AJ, Talau, Stefano, - and they’d be more Ive forgotten. What I’m saying is I think 2021 will reveal who has it and who hasn’t but at the moment we are sort of throwing darts blindly.

Covid19 will be here throughout 2021. It’s not going anywhere soon. Maybe late September/October 2021. Vaccinations won’t start until March and you won’t see the effect for six months. Maybe by GF time we’ll be rid of it.

I suppose I meant COVID causing the cancellation of reserve grade. Really hope that doesn’t happen

I guess what I am saying is I think it will as nothing has really changed.

Need to think outside the box if we take Mansour. With his hard running, good lines and average defence, he could be converted to a 2nd rower like Garner.

He could be the next Schubert, Ribot, Oates

?

Yes but even if you're doing a swap just to give Harry experience, you still pick what you think is a good swap from the other team. They weren't going to ask for Robert Jennings.

 

[rihannafan1]

Laurie included as a package deal with Mansour. Don’t be surprised if Parra or even the Bulldogs come swooping in last minute though...

You should quote your sources or you are not any better that buzz. Instagram or not. “Someone one the money” is not a source.

By that reasoning he'd be no better than The Pom.

 

[TigerLouis]

I cannot believe people are talking up Momo & criticising Mansour. The critics are saying Mansour is slow I’m sure he will beat Momo in a race to the ball & he is a much stronger runner with the ball in hand.

I'm talking up both of them haha

 

[tigerap]

It’s possible we are signing Mansour because Nofo has rejected us for the Eels...

Is that a hunch or do you have some info on that?

Hunch only

Would make sense, the longer it drags on the less likely he stays imo

I would prefer to lose BJ or JTJ than Moma.
Moma should be first centre picked. The guy is a legend, a try scoring wiz and a fine goal kicker.

He's also a gentleman and a scholar

Time to put everything to rest with “statistics”, between Nofa and Sauce.

These have all come from the NRL website.

Firstly we will start with 2020 first.

**Josh Mansour**

2020, played 22 games, 19 won, 2 lost.

Tackles made: 120
Tackles missed: 19
Tackle percentage: 80.64%

Receipts (ran, touched or caught the ball): 487
Total meters: 4003
Average meters: 181
Line breaks: 21

Tries: 12

**David Nofoaluma**

2020, played 20 games, 7 won, 13 lost.

Tackles made: 89
Tackles missed: 33
Tackle percentage: 67.95%

Receipts (ran, touched or caught the ball): 511
Total meters: 3576
Average meters: 178.00
Line breaks: 17

Tries: 17




Now, we will go to 2019 statistics.


**Josh Mansour**

2019, played 19 games, won 9, lost 10.


Tackles made: 129
Tackles missed: 29
Tackle percentage: 75.23%

Receipts (ran, touched or caught the ball): 372
Total meters: 2951
Average meters: 155
Line breaks: 3

Tries: 1


**David Nofoaluma**

2019, played 14, won 6, lost 8.

Tackles made: 101
Tackles missed: 23
Tackle percentage: 80.91%

Receipts (ran, touched or caught the ball): 344
Total meters: 2170
Average meters: 155
Line breaks: 6

Tries: 8


Other things to put into perspective that people are saying are their age, which is true, when you get older, the slower you get.

Other thing also to remember is that Nofa is a tiger, but by me looking at these statistics, he would be a nobody at any other club.. while at the tigers he’s the #1 fan for most people that support us, but also for the people that don’t support us.

Would I take Mansour for a year? 100%.

The reason why is to get a #1 in the fullback in the trade, but also for multiple people to fight out for spots on the wing.

For me, I’d love to see a few games of Tamou doing the first hit up, Nofa second hit up, Mansour third hit up, Fourth Liddle quick dummy half scoop, passing to Lucy Leilua to Roberts to score..

But not only that, seeing dirty hit ups from sauce and Nofa is the big one id like to see, getting us out of trouble when we’re close to the try line under pressure trying to get out.
