Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Demps]

Gagai, DWZ, Isaako...

We have $$
Let's aim higher.

We need a winger right now, there's not many options.

I think we need a centre now.
Happy to roll with Nofo & Jet for the rest of the season.

It doesn’t look like the coach is happy to roll with it

A broken clock is right twice a day...

I hope he's not looking at DWZ for any position.

demps it seems to be the only type of player we can attract to the club I am talking about experienced players not juniors

Said it before,

We got cash, we should aim higher.

DWZ should go to England.

We should chase Hynes, Kris or guys on the cusp of making it like Laurie.

 

[Telltails]

Can't get past DWZ playing the ball facing the wrong direction - he is exactly what we dont want.

 

[TYGA]

I don't quite get the reasoning behind the WT going for DWZ if it's true. I don't really see what he offers unless we're looking at outside back utility value if Mbye has lined up something and the club wants an outside back.

DWZ is a very good winger who wanted to be a fullback but doesn’t have the skill set required in today’s game. He has proven he can be elite on the wing ONLY. If we sign him as a winger and he’s happy to play there it makes total sense with the Dogs paying some freight.

Players can look bad at the dogs and really be of value Reimis Smith, Morgan Harper are recent examples.

I think all 3 are flops.
DWZ probably the better of the 3.

We don't...
We got Nofo and Jet.

We got superstar in the making, waiting... Fifzbala.

We need a centre if anything..

We have one winger. Jet could easily not work out, it was one game. We've got a heap of centres, Mbye, Doueihi, Leilua, Talau, Roberts. Our wingers are Nofa and that's it

I can remember way b4 this season started, that most posters thought or believed that this season would be a building season. 2022 would be the year that it should start happening with all our cap money. WOW who will be ready for the taking. I still have those thoughts. Kills me when we lose this year. Feel like putting my Jersey, tigers slippers and a very nicely made,by my best mates wife, a tigers blanket back in the draw. I just can't. Coz we are WESTS TIGERS!!!!!

I reckon none of then ate centres....
Haha.
Douihei is playing well there though.

I hear what you're saying though.
I think we got 1 wing spot available and 1 centre spot.... ready for a first grader (not talau, kepoa)

 

[Aceshigh]

Who said we are after DWZ ? He didn’t want to come here even when we had his brother on our books .he def not coming here

He's obviously desperate now.
Baz probably told him he's not a part of the plans with Burton, JAC coming and the young Aloimati or whatever his name is coming through.

Clean out coming at the Dogs.
That's why I suggested maybe we look at Atoni for depth?

Dwz to our backline "You call THAT a fumble??? "THIS is a fumble ! !!!

It isn't DWZ anyway guys
It's Corey Oates

@PJ @JC99 @hobbo1 @happy_tiger

 

[hsvjones]

I have no problem with adding DWZ for the right price as he is quite a good player on the wing and I would pick him on the wing over Tommy T..
Judging by our recruitment over the last 18 months there is no way we would be overpaying for him and would even think Dogs would be paying a lot of the freight. I trust the powers at be

He’s crap L0L

He'll be a Tiger soon enough.
Swap for Walters.

 

[boonboon]

Would happily take either of DWZ or Oates both would walk into our side and both are rep quality wingers and only 25.

Who would thought this could possibly happen.😂😂😂😂

We have NZ coach and have Ken maumalo and david fusitu'a either not playing or playing Reggie's. Have read about home sickness? If so drop the $$$'s and move their families over Nick politics style and put a Wests Tigers Jersey on their backs. That's 2 signings I would crack a bottle of champagne for.

 

[hsvjones]

A name for the wing position that doesn't get a mention is Matt Ikuvalu.
Every time he come into first grade for Roosters he just does his job and does it well..
He would not cost a lot and would be tempted for a chance at starting each week..
Side note - Would be very interested in Joseph Manu as well but unlikely Roosters let him go.

The Rorters don't loose anyone they want to keep they have systems in place as well as the brown paper bags to make it attractive for players to stay and toe the company line.
