Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[LeichhardtTiger]

No one is coming so they thought they'd start without him.

Getting rid of Peachey was probably one of CC's terms of employment.

 

[hsvjones]

Jacko wanted to know who the coach was going go be maybe he knows after today

Why would he be there if something is not going on behind the scenes.. Very suss IMO so I will go to bed thinking CC is coming and have a good night sleep now 😉

Ciraldo spotted at COE again today with sheens and jacko

Jacko? Hastings?

 

[LeichhardtTiger]

I don't want to get hopes up but I will allow it again and get disappointed ..

But.. Hastings is one of the players Sheen's said they need to look at and maybe CC wanted to meet hastings to discuss.. We can all dream

I am going to bed early to do just that~!

That way we keep the name if Smith or Munster ever get hired.!

Line running specialist Munster for sure!

Not even the village idiot would suggest he'd played senior reps.

Talking about the junior origin sides...

 

[tigerbenji]

I would think that the $750k is for his 2 season deal, surely

Correct, it was for 2 years.

If contracts are on hold until we get a new coach, who gave Peachey permission to leave and signed the rugby player?

I don't disagree with the decision to get rid of Peachey, but I thought we were waiting for a coach?

You could definitely make a conspiracy theory that the new coach is making these decisions.

Especially if the coach had previously coached that player at another club.

If we are getting Ciraldo (big IF)
I would be trying to sign Staines and give him a shot at fullback (on minimum money)
Move Brooks on to Newy. Play Laurie or Douehli at 5/8.

When do mid season signings have to be finalised by? 30 June 2022.

With LL Cool J leaving do WT have 2 or 3 spots to fill in the roster for 2022.

The way Kelma Tuilagi has been performing maybe we should see if Manly have someone half decent to swap him mid season. His form has deteriorated over last month and maybe trying the Moses and LL Cool J method to leave the club early. So no point giving a player a top 17 spot when he is not performing irrespective of how the team is performing.

As well as Peachy potentially leaving (yes please) do Forum members believe Gildart (turning 26 in August) will hang around in 2023 or also ask for a release back to UK? Not many recent example of English backs doing well in the NRL. Yes I appreciate in the 80s and 90s English backs did well like Hanley and Schofields.

Unfortunately all roster spots for NRL squad will probably be filled by 18yo

Haha, I wore 'em too mate and I was in the forwards. Our junior home ground was Pratten Park and with a turf cricket pitch in the middle it was like concrete in the winter.

Hilarious. It's been so long since I've lived in Sydney.
When I was 17 I played at a ground I think was called Tantallen Oval, or words close to that. I think it may be near Ryde??
Anyway, we used to call it Concussion Oval. It was like concrete and eventually they banned it because a kid litterally had his head opened...woooo that looked nasty.
Noone got tackled, just throw the ball away if you didn't have a support player 🤣

My son's all played there on many occasions. Not sure if they have improved the surface it's been a few years now.

May have been a meeting to determine how much Hastings wants to be at the Tigers moving forward. Take it with a grain of salt but this was a post on The Kennel yesterday:

Rumour - Rumbles at Tigertown

I have a mate who works for one of the Tigers sponsors. He hears bits but doesn’t throw rumours around liberally and I file most Tiger news in the ‘not interested’ basket anyway… BUT…spoke to him today and he mentioned that Hastings and at least two others have asked for a release since Madge’s...

Hastings operates under the same limitations in terms of the forwards as Brooks. But if what I read on this forum is true, the drama that surrounds him is not worth it.
