Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Cairnstigers]

What makes anyone think that this bunch of soft, entitled, lazy, arrogant and comfort-zone players are going to follow Finucane's lead?
I rate Tamou.
I don't believe he was brought here to run for 200mtrs and make copious amounts of tackle-breaks, off-loads, score 10 tries and kick goals at 95%.
His leadership is about recovery, professional conduct, never lying down and adopting a winning mentality, the rest is up to guys like Mikaele, Musgrove, Luccie, Uto, Brooksy, Garner, TommyT, Joe O, Jet, Nofo, Mbye and the rest to use their God-given talents to the best of their ability.
Is he still a leader if this bunch of powder-puffs lack the mental and intestinal fortitude to follow?...
I love TPJ's X-factor, which we're missing, but giving Tamou some back-up in the mould of Finucane would be far more conducive to establishing a platform that drives the values of tenacity, pride of performance, striving to succeed, especially in the face of adversity which breed a winning culture, something we've sorely lacked for far too long.

Some of those players you named played very well last Saturday so I think what you have written is a little unfair.

The finger should be pointed at Maguire. He looked like a man without answers during that post match press conference. He's actually had that look for a significant period of time. Perhaps if the club installed a leader as coach, we may achieve better results and performances. I read many comments which describe Maguire as tough. Tough does not necessarily mean you are good, it could mean you use it to hide your lack of tactical nous or comms skills.

He doesn't have the answers but he's a loyal soldier and will be here for the remainder of his contract.

If that is true, it's confirmation WTs should be booted.

C'mon Paws...really ...'Wests Tigers' should be booted.
Are you sure you meant to say that?

Most supporters would be dismayed with the answer I responded to about Maguire.

Yeh ok Paws, but how does this post link to "WT's should be booted"?

Mediocrity. The original poster wrote Maguire doesn't have the answers but he'll see out his contract because he's a loyal soldier.

You may not have an issue with it. I do and I believe others may as well.

Hartigan is doing an outstanding job with recruitment. I wonder though whether the word is out among other players that you will not improve under Maguire?

You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.....the players we have are not committed enough?


There may be some who realise their position is shaky. Talau would be one imo.

Do I see an early trade
Finucane for Talau
Or is Talau still a keeper in the eyes of many

I really can't believe he is still in the team.

To me Talau was highly touted in the game because he had the physical gifts and the surname. But game day rolls around and you just get average Tommy.

Guys like him would benefit from a Dale Finucane at the club the most, watching and learning about his preparation and what he puts into his craft could very well unlock beast mode in TT. Just my opinion.

I really can’t see him making it in the NRL? Maybe a season or two in Reggie’s could prove me wrong?

Good players know that it's the quality of the players around you that make you better not those content to be mediocre and not put the work in. Mediocrity comes from laziness mentally and physically and that lies solely with the the players themselves.

The standard you walk past is the standard you accept - 2016 Australian of the Year.

This from a former military officer resonates.

This is the issue with we know Maguire doesn't have the answers but he is a loyal soldier who will see out his contract.

Talau is a fine talent and a player we keep.

Talau is still very young and only played a hand full of games
He has the makings of a powerful centre and or future lock
But just how long do we wait to find out if he has it
We want to see alot more improvement before years end and I for one hope he can
We as a club need to show we can produce star players and keep them

They’re contracted mate all he can do is drop them. Packer, Bj, Garner, Brooks, Talau, Kepaoa, Stef, Mbye, AD, etc etc

All been dropped at various stages.

What else can he do when it’s dudville?

Maguire didn’t tell Talau to trip over his own hands and kick the ball to a Storm player who waltzes over to score. Players are incompetent.

 

[pawsandclaws1]

Maguire doing a no show for half time against the Storm was so predictable. It is stereotypical of a coach in trouble blaming his players for lacking the answers.

 

[tony soprano]

Ok so Tpj was our top priority then we get flogged media says we should sign Finucane to solve our problems... My issue is why make a reactionarie change to our recruitment targets and stratergy from media pressure? If Tpj was our target a month ago why change now? This club is hard on its supporters.

Stop listening to the media, I doubt they have much idea.

It’s true what they said that we do not have enough tough players. Kent nailed it.

Mediocrity. The original poster wrote Maguire doesn't have the answers but he'll see out his contract because he's a loyal soldier.

You may not have an issue with it. I do and I believe others may as well.

Hartigan is doing an outstanding job with recruitment. I wonder though whether the word is out among other players that you will not improve under Maguire?

Good players know that it's the quality of the players around you that make you better not those content to be mediocre and not put the work in. Mediocrity comes from laziness mentally and physically and that lies solely with the the players themselves.

The standard you walk past is the standard you accept - 2016 Australian of the Year.

This from a former military officer resonates.

This is the issue with we know Maguire doesn't have the answers but he is a loyal soldier who will see out his contract.

They’re contracted mate all he can do is drop them. Packer, Bj, Garner, Brooks, Talau, Kepaoa, Stef, Mbye, AD, etc etc

All been dropped at various stages.

What else can he do when it’s dudville?

It's easy to blame the players when you don't have the answers.

Maguire didn’t tell Talau to trip over his own hands and kick the ball to a Storm player who waltzes over to score. We make bonehead errors every single week. Players are either completely lacking belief in themselves or they are just incompetent and happy to be there.

Yeah that’s the most annoying thing about talau for me. His immaturity in his football shows he should be playing under 20/reserve grade where he belongs.


It’s not good enough, when you drop a ball (ok dropping a ball you can excuse) but when you kick the ball instead of doing all you can to dive on the ball to kill the play. Instead you kick it perfectly for the opposing team to score. Same play when he went for a miraculous play instead of bundling Latrell past the goal line.

Where are the standards of this club if we keep picking him.

The fact he keeps getting pick shows very poorly on Madge and the current coaching staff hartigan that allow him in this team. Absolute jokers.

What makes anyone think that this bunch of soft, entitled, lazy, arrogant and comfort-zone players are going to follow Finucane's lead?
I rate Tamou.
I don't believe he was brought here to run for 200mtrs and make copious amounts of tackle-breaks, off-loads, score 10 tries and kick goals at 95%.
His leadership is about recovery, professional conduct, never lying down and adopting a winning mentality, the rest is up to guys like Mikaele, Musgrove, Luccie, Uto, Brooksy, Garner, TommyT, Joe O, Jet, Nofo, Mbye and the rest to use their God-given talents to the best of their ability.
Is he still a leader if this bunch of powder-puffs lack the mental and intestinal fortitude to follow?...
I love TPJ's X-factor, which we're missing, but giving Tamou some back-up in the mould of Finucane would be far more conducive to establishing a platform that drives the values of tenacity, pride of performance, striving to succeed, especially in the face of adversity which breed a winning culture, something we've sorely lacked for far too long.

Some of those players you named played very well last Saturday so I think what you have written is a little unfair.

The finger should be pointed at Maguire. He looked like a man without answers during that post match press conference. He's actually had that look for a significant period of time. Perhaps if the club installed a leader as coach, we may achieve better results and performances. I read many comments which describe Maguire as tough. Tough does not necessarily mean you are good, it could mean you use it to hide your lack of tactical nous or comms skills.

He doesn't have the answers but he's a loyal soldier and will be here for the remainder of his contract.

If that is true, it's confirmation WTs should be booted.

C'mon Paws...really ...'Wests Tigers' should be booted.
Are you sure you meant to say that?

They replaced him with zucchini and he had the single worst game in history. No idea how Madge sleeps at night.

A fitting quote to the players content to get paid every week for rubbish performances.

I don’t care mate at least Cini made an honest mistake and does what he can to cover the mistake no excuse for the current jokers to keep picking him. It’s a systemic issue he keeps doing it over and over I’d rather they pick cini if we gave him as many chances he’d be doing well by now

I think he dropped 5 bombs. Pretty sure I maxed out at 2 playing park footy. Simply we don’t have enough cattle.

You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.....the players we have are not committed enough?


There may be some who realise their position is shaky. Talau would be one imo.

Do I see an early trade
Finucane for Talau
Or is Talau still a keeper in the eyes of many

Talau is a fine talent and a player we keep.

Probably a good player for reserve grade.

You don’t get me what I’m saying is I don’t care if u drop a bomb, if you drop the bomb and dive on the ball to stop the team scoring. Talau would drop it, kick the ball and the team will score from it. I can’t cop the school boy mentality he has it’s disgusting we allow it in first grade
