Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Sunnycoast_tiger]

Players we would be looking at for this year.
Tevita Funa wing/ centre
Brent Naden centre
Braidon Burns centre
Corey Oates wing
Cooper Johns half
Cory Paix half/ utility
Braydon Trindall.
We don’t have to sign them all, just three would make a difference . Just my opinion.

 

[avocadoontoast]

We need a winger, a centre and a halfback urgently.

Oates for wing
Naden for centre
Hastings for halfback

Ok its been 4 weeks and we clearly know where we stand...

Changes for me:

1. Look into swapping Walters for Corey Oats as he just needs a change as his has played SOO, Tall, great at bringing the ball back and is still only like 26 years old.

2. If there is a chance to off load Brooks I say let him go as he still has like 3 more years here and we need a true half. I would put that money to buying Reynolds with a 3 year deal but the 3rd year a club option. He would just bring us a player that can control a game and kicking game is outstanding.

3. I would look at buying Sua from Souths as he is a SOO player and would add that aggression we lack plus we have the money and no chance of getting Angus C from roosters.

4. If moses can find a club i would also let him go as paying the money he is on for a bench spot that Simpkin should be taking is ridiculous

5. I would also look to buy Brown from Eels - I know he is a grub but we desperately need a guy like him to lift the team as we have too many Mr Nice guys.

I know a lot won't agree but we need a hard edge and need it ASAP.

Is Madge going to play halfback?

In my comment about brooks i said offer Reynolds a deal. You must of missed this

 

[Merlot]

splash the cash for oates

 

[jrtiger]

let's hit up Braidon Burns. classy player and would shore up our left edge.

Great player injury is chronic. Worth a risk on a one year deal.

 

[TYGA]

I’d target the following underrated players.

Hymel Hunt
Phoenix Crossland
Harley Smith Shields
Siosifa Talaki
Isaac Lumelume
Paul Turner
Keenan Palasia
Brandon Trindall

The only bigger name players available which make sense but won’t happen are.
Xavier Coates, Jayden Sua, Lachlan Fitzgibbon.

It was mentioned on the forum that Adam Reynolds has a chronic back problem. He has not recovered from a fracture and does not do contact training with Souths.

 

[Tigerlily]

Oates for wing
Naden for centre
Hastings for halfback

A definite yes to Hastings and Naden and a big hell no to Corey Oats.

Some people on here clearly forget just how lazy Corey Oats is during game’s the guy only gives about 50% effort when he play’s, I mean come on he can’t even get a gig at the Broncos.

Yes I read that but even with this injury he shits all over Brooks. I would only offer 2 years with a 3rd year in our favour. For me if we could offload Brooks to Cows the dollars would not be much different and we would have a proven winner. I understand where you are coming from but after 7 year I think Brooks has had his chances.

Brooks has been very good the last 2 weeks. Are you Adam Reynolds' manager?

Agree about Oates- recall way too many shockers than any good games in recent times Another player that people got too excited about too quickly.

If the last 2 weeks has seen Brooks be ‘very good’ we definitely need someone a whole lot better.

There are no quick solutions. We have a lot of talent in the club but we cannot rush it into the NRL. There needs to be adjustments to our defence and attitude. We've met some of the toughest teams in the competition. Now it is time to prove we have learnt from the experience. I'd like WTs to stick with this team.

 

[Guest]

So much negativity about a team that beat a top 8 team and then got refereed out of a win against the 2nd best team in the comp. at the moment.
This is a competitive top 8 team that's improving every week. It's a shame our supporters specialize in dumping on their own team and can't recognise the great opportunities that await.
The only change that needs to be made is Garner. He's just not contributing at the level needed.

Yep heard this too and is the reason why souffs are reluctant to give him more than 1 year

Jeez i liked Amone in CC, he's got that agression that we need in the pack.

A few of the Souths diehards are convinced he will stay. I cannot imagine him playing for another club.

This forum cares way too much about players personalities... as long as they work hard at training and work hard on the field let's take them. We can't afford to run background checks on players and only sign charity workers.... McGuire is a grub but he would be a solid pickup and footy is what matters

I'm very proud of the fact our club hasn't ever been seen as purveyers of grubby play.
To the point that even the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Finger" or Tim Simona stuff never left a stigma upon our great clubs name in the same way Storm cheated the cap or Easts Rorters continually seem so flushed for choice or Sharks being found over the cap every year either side of their premiership.
Our integrity is intact.
We are proud.
We signed bone-heads before, the most recent having been dropped last week.
Was it last year McGuire got done for eye-gouging?
Let us not even entertain the thought of having someone of so little repute at our club.
If we limp... we limp like men!


Other big teams (especially forwards) dont respect us
we play nice
we don't play finals

Im sick of limping out of finals contention

I think most teams do respect us, we are quite known for producing the unexpected

Havn't been in contention for a while sure but we make most teams sweat regardless

Incorrect. No one respects us at all. We're generally considered a laughing stock to most clubs and players.
