Why concerning? Madge is as hard as they come and will no doubt hold him accountable.

The actual quote is "I know that I perform my best when I’ve got a strong coach who can keep me accountable", I think you're clutching at straws mate.

How many times have you read a new signing say that ...ever ....

Well it's better to read than reading about signings supposedly not coming here because they're worried the coach might push them. Quite refreshing to see somebody say they welcome it.

You shouldn't need a tough coach to make you accountable

Any true pro can keep himself accountable as he wants to play his best football every week and earn as much money as possible for his family with consistancy and not let his teammates down ....

Where the @THE_POM been? surprised he didn’t break the Peachy signing

Are the stars aligning for Zac Lomax coming to the Tigers in 2022:

- Moses Suli signed to the Dragons giving them an abundance of quality outside backs.
- James Roberts only on a T&T for Tigers (maybe the Jet is the contingency if we can't secure Lomax)
- Lomax reportedly moving house
- Lomax last year courted by Madge hinting at a fairly good relationship there
- Lomax reportedly not happy at Dragons after Covid breach incident
- Lomax fills a major need for the Tigers who have the salary cap space for a big play

Any other signs of hope? Instagram follows??

Dragons are rumoured to be interested in Curtis Scott. Why would they sign both Suli and Scott? 🤔

If they signed Scott, I would be more confident on Lomax

[Needaname]

There was a rumour we were after Sullivan from saints?

Probably was an each way bet?
Up and coming half or junior half

“Michael Maguire was a big influence on us, and I personally liked his hard-nosed approach to training and his high standards. With Tuki’s background, he was always going to react well to a coach like that.”

He said Maguire’s tough approach had huge appeal for his eldest son.

We could do with a bucket load of brains

Would love to see re-signing news next. No other available players really get me out of bed and I hope the team feels the same 😂

In saying this, if signing Curtis Scott stops Peachey from playing centre, I’m all for it.

We’ve heard about why Roberts was retained.
Any word on Amone and Cini as they weren’t farewelled?

I found that odd too. Feel they could both get similar deals to roberts.

Hmmm, Amone for mine has a place but I’d say we would hold off in case we get a more experienced forward released from somewhere else first. Clubs could sign him up on min wage, he certainly has the raw talent and is a big bopper.

 

[kade7]

Amone and cini will potentially be on train and trial deals as well imo

 

[yeahcaz]

I’d say amone would be weighing up potential super league deals right now. His mate Pat Mago just signed over there and I wouldn’t be surprised to see him follow suit
