Dont understand people trying to move Doueihi.

He is our shining light and something we have got right. Leave him alone. Fix the rest!

People need to stop suggesting moving players around! This is one of the main reasons we struggle. The best teams have a spine that have played together for years! Our spine is 2 games strong! People are already suggesting to change it for next year? Then we start again! 1,6,7 sorted and 9 looks set for a while even tho Simpkin will definitely be an option for us in the near future. No to reynolds. There’s a reason Souths won’t offer him more than one year and he won’t make any difference if we play the way we did first 2 games. Lachlan Lewis weights about 40kg... idk how some people think he can play lock. Would much prefer hastings if that was the case.

2 players that would be great buys are Naden (center or wing) and Nicho Hynes (wing but quality fb and halves depth) hynes wants a full time gig somewhere next year, he most likely won’t get that at the storm. These 2 will give us strike and would be very affordable. We also need a meter eating big bopper for next year.

Nico Hynes is a great Idea . Is he a winger though ?

I wouldn’t mind:

Move Douhie to centre, get rid of BJ.

Bring Laurie into 6

Go all out and buy Paps from storm to play 1

Buy a huge forward.

With respect,

I disageee with this post entirely.


Forwards are the bes we have had in decades and im sure were looking to bolster.

Ad looked very solid at 6, Dane is locked in at 1 for 1 fraction of Paps price.

The recruitment and retention crew will have spots and money again this off season to hand pick the players that make us a better team in 22

Nah. He's a utility, mostly plays in the halves, fullback or centre.... remind me of a bloke we've already got! He's a decent 14 but personally don't think he's good enough to be a starter at many clubs.

He's a real candidate to be overpaid by someone because Storm.

Hopefully we aren't silly enough to be that team.

If he’s off the bench at Melbourne, he’s good enough to start here

Yeah nah. He's a solid player but what position would he start at for us? He's an okay fullback and an okay half and an okay centre. He would be our 14

Stopppp moving ad to centre pleasee

Him and laurie are our long term 1 and 6 full stop

Boss
Yes hit the 10 green thumbs on a post
Well done mate you have earned your 1st gold badge ?

And yes I totally agree with you comment
Both Laurie and Doueihi are in their long term positions
Liddle at 9 looks good but I have concerns over his longevity
But we have simpkin pushing him which is great for us
Brooks has 150 games of experience and should be using every ounce of that experience to kick on
If he can then we will be set in the positions of 1 6 7 and 9
If Brooks can't start to excel then we must searh for someone that can do the job
So next for us is an 80 minute ball playing lock
Is that man Hastings
It is worth a shot as long as we are not paying to much or Signing him to long
I would like to see a 2 year contract maximum with another 2 year option in the clubs favour

We have a team of work horses in our forwards and feel confident they will grow to a formidable pack over the course of the season
If we could land Naden then he will apply pressure on our back stocks

Things have come a long way at the Wets Tigers in the last 12 months
Now it's up to our players to perform

NO MORE EXCUSES
Small hiccups accepted

Could easily start in the centre’s

We seem to be fine in the forwards and still have Blore to come back and development of T Simpkins and J Simpkin. Also second rower on Dev contract is coming on well.

Really need a half back and winger then we are top 8 contenders.

 

[hugh1954]

Has anyone thought of signing Alex Twal's twin brother from Sportsbet the likeness is amazing and i wonder how much Twal is getting paid for his appearance

Yeah exactly!!

If Blore's fitness is up to scratch and he can regularly play 60 odd mins, then he'll lock down one edge position. We know he's solid defensively but we've yet to see his attacking impact, which I think is going to surprise a fare few.

Tuki's a gem. Bit of a nutter who hits hard in every tackle(much like Blore) and he's got a massive motor. Perfect lock for us me thinks. Needs to fill out some more to prevent against injury and if not for this IMO he'd be in the 1st side already.

When fully fit it looks like we've got our pigs sorted out for many years. Just gotta be wary of the tops sides poaching these guys after we've put in the effort to develop them.

As you said we're still short on genuine pace which can be solved internally if Fitz or Gebbie come good. Otherwise we'll have the cash to spend on free agents this coming off season...

I don't doubt Naden has talent, however not sure if he can be a consistent quality NRL player for years to come. I must say I haven't had much time for him as a person - he is a lippy tool and a hot-head on the field and off the field has proven to be a jackass.
On the other hand, he is young and maybe he can settle down with the right guidance - the WT's current program may well be a good fit for him. Having him at his best would certainly provide some depth and strike in the centres and potentially on the wing where his big frame could be handy. Perhaps a 2 year deal with a further option in the club's favour.
