Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Yes I think he will mature into a very good forward. We've invested time and effort into his development so let's reap the benefit.

Ok with that,but hes gotta show more consistency this season or we move on
Probably got Dolphins circing tbh to supplement their aging forward recruits

Yeah not so sure on that. Seems unmotivated and lazy on the field IMO. Has the physical attributes to be an absolute weapon but doesn't seem to have the killer instinct or hunger to rip and tear.
That is the big question though: for how long do you persevere with someone in the hope that they will come good? IMO WT have been guilty of doing this for far too long to the detriment of our club: waiting, hoping, 1 year, 4 years, 7 years. You've got to cut your losses at some stage, we need to be more ruthless in this area to achieve success.

Why do so many players claim to not bother speaking to their manager during contract period? I'd be talking to my manager very regularly if he's taking his 5-10%.

And the ones who say they are leaving it to their managers. As if. Usually that’s code for “I’m signing with another club and don’t want to have to explain myself to the supporters“.

and we didn't make the 8 in 2021 be damned if we change a winning team to accommodate AD
if we are flying come mid season don't change

I’d be surprised if Doueihi even got back to his best this year anyway…never know tho

Deep down him & the club are probably hoping to get through this year unscathed once he’s recovered and go full throttle in 2023

I feel like any time we get linked to someone in the media, we don't get them. The times we do get a good one, it seems to come up out of the blue.

Disappointing if we don't get Nikora though. I need to stop getting my hopes up on some of these reports!

Who brought up the possibility of Nikora to Tigers - Rothfield - dont trust a wanna be rumour munger.

The pom mentioned we have tabled a decent offer to him and the club seems confident they will get him

Worse, the mole.

Buzz didn't name the player at shark's

Hope we haven’t slipped back into writing valuations for player managers? But who can trust anything in the msm these days? I would like to think Nikora is palming off the media the best way he can, and we’re still a serious consideration.

Is the constant negative criticism from social media and main stream media, directed at the coach and individual players holding the team back?
We all need to read this 7News article quoting James Tamou. The real reason we need 5 captains.

Hopefully our boy Logen Dillon is in NQ just to visit his friend Kane Bradley...

... and not to discuss his career options. 🤠

Fairplay, Laurie's our number 1.

What kind of contract is Logan dillion on?

Nsw cup I'd assume or train and trial. Not top 30.

 

[tony soprano]

A lot of players that age would be in limbo missing two years of fleg due to covid.

 

[Demps]

Correct.

Covid Szn tho.
All likelihood he plays some this year.

I'd assume To'a is next in line if Laurie gets injured tho.

James Tamou says helping players to not be distracted by negative reports and conjecture over Michael Maguire's future is a job for Wests Tigers' five captains.

Thanks mate👍.

Tamou talking about his Panthers again😂

Would be a fair log jam up there with Hamiso a sure starter and Holmes paid big money to originally play fb (even though he will play elsewhere to start the year). Drinkwater might also find himself back there this year too with Townsend and Dearden in the halves.

A bit of patience should see him in our Top 30 soon enough. Just needs seem NSW Cup experience to fine tune some areas of his game.
