Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[balmain boy]

Happy to see Jesse join his brother at the Dolphins. Now they have recruited both storm backrowers, hopefully it isn't as enticing for the gun junior backrowers at the cowboys ie Nanai and Luki

They signed a highly rated teenage backrower in Howarth to a massive deal, the biggest ever for a player yet to play first grade, a 5 x 500k deal for a teenager is huge!

Storm are the best are letting players go just before they fall off there peak I’m certain they already have youngsters lined up to take both Jesse and Kenny’s spots

Wayne Bennett used to be the master of it. Remember the Wally Lewis call.

Feel sorry for him but in this case we did but I wish him a good recovery despite being a Raider

Good man @Glenji95
Love the positivity.

HSS is a likeable guy.
Got eye brows like @Kaito

Hopefully a speedy recovery as you said lad.
Guy looks a good prospect.

Seems like a good kid if he changes his mind one day I wouldn’t mind him joining the Tigers

Cross roads moment.

The kid tossed up between us and the Raiders. He decided to stay loyal, than they signed Cotric making his chances of a 3/4’s gig even harder and now a season ending injury….Guess he would like to have a re think now. In saying that hope he has a speedy recovery, seem like a good kid with plenty of ability

Of course it may have been a total freak incident and he would not have had the same outcome if he was training with the Tigers. Sucks for the young guy.

Musgrove has got as much to prove as any player this year imo. Does anyone know if he’s fit and in the mix for round 1?

He looked pretty fit striding up the courthouse steps.
Jokes aside, he has featured in preseason training pics in the gym and out on the paddock.
I think Madge still holds onto the memory of Zane smashing into the defense like a man possessed when at Souths.
Indiscretions on and off the field and injuries made him practically useless to WT.
After the club showed faith in him, he finally was about to prove his worth during the all-stars game when he got sent to the bin for shoulder charge. [ Ive scrutinized that tackle and he practically turned his back on the attacker, a report but no sin bin IMO]
He was lucky to get a contract this time around and he's was quoted as saying “I owe this club"
He seems focused.
If he has solid trials he will be a starting prop IMO because it's no secret that Madge rates the guy and we need pure aggressive behaviour from our engine room [controlled aggression Zane!]

At his best he makes the 17 but he has a long way to go imo

At his best he starts hand down.
He can be a complete weapon and has alot to prove this year. Lets hope be stays injury free and comes out of the blocks firing. Hard heavy straight runs and crunching defence.

If Musgrove can hold his own and Stefano builds on last year, then we just need Blore and some of the backrower kids to click and we could actually have a reasonable season - but way too many ifs for me.

Right at the height of the crackdown on head shots…

Edit; I couldn’t believe how reckless it was, with all eyes on this game, no other distractions, such a tigers thing to do

Is Musgrove staying with us?
I heard he was off to Souths...

While this is a brain snap. Would be good to keep the player, he is still young and fairly cheap as a Prop.

This is also where Leadership and passion goes wrong. We saw it with Latrell on Manu, we see it here. Clearly Musgrove's passion was through the roof. That's great, except it is mis-focused.

We have lacked passion all 2021. It has been really bad. Now we see Musgrove step up in a rep game and we want to see him take this to the field for us. But attitude wise he can't be flying in uncontrolled with head shots.

Hopefully he can learn his lesson in 3 rounds.
