Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Stevec]

Squad next year ,Stephano, Douehi, Hastings ,Nofoaloma ,Laurie ,Joffa ,
Papalii ,Naden ,Korisau ,Nubrown , Twal ,thats 11
Try and recruit 2 class centers ,2 big classy frontrowers , 2 powerful edge back rowers
Throw in a couple of maybe 's like Maumalo and Toa and I
Hope Blore and Talau could step up that gives 21 if we could recruit the 6 above
We need 3 main things
1. A big clean out of everyone not mentioned above
2. A huge recruitment drive from NRL or the top sides in NSW CUP or QLD CUP . Whatever it takes or Wherever they are from don't care but must have class.
3. Develop the juniors but only the ones with that x factor that indicates they will make it in the big time .9 needed here
Giving us a top 30 with 6 top recruits and 9 junior pathways future stars

It’s honestly ridiculous aye how can you have

Tedesco
Manu
Radley
Toupu
Sualli
Keary
Walker
Jwh
I’m sure I’m missing a few

All in the same team most teams have 3 of them and are still under cap pressure

They should have won the minor premiership with the roster they have

Even if they’re not cheating. How does that Roster and our roster both equal the same cap value (within 5%). This is why something’s gotta change in the NRL.

I hope Peachey Simpkin Simpkins Musgrove and probably Liddle join the exodus as they certainly would not be in my plans.

 

[Aceshigh]

I can’t believe we are only saying goodbye to only five of them, i live in hope a few others are heading out the door

Don't forget they're also adding Brandon Smith to the roster.

Crichton and Collins would be on big coin too. And guys like Tupouniua, Nate Butcher and Egan Butcher would command a min of 400k on the open market. Other teams like Penrith have to shed players to stay under the cap but not the roosters. It is beyond a joke.

I wonder how Sheens will react to Douehi (or anyone else) telling him what position they want to play. He doesn't seem the negotiating type.

Performance review.

A month later either he or Benji would be the 5/8

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

Adam Doueihi is a centre or fullback. He lacks the playmaking capabilities to play 5/8 pure and simple. Laurie deserves a crack at 5/8 next year, he could be no worse than any of the others who have worn the 6 this year. If Doueihi kicks up a fuss or signs elsewhere, move him on.

Yeah bloody he’ll I forgot about those to state of origin players it is honestly ridiculous how they have no won minor premiership this year is laughable

He has a lot of similarities to Richards imo.

Tall, not overly fast, good kicker.

Strong…

Doueihi’s defence means he couldn’t play in the centres without an enforcer doing his tackling for him

Loaned winger David Nofoaluma has confirmed that he will return to the Wests Tigers in 2023.

The Tigers allowed him to depart the joint venture on loan to the Melbourne Storm for the remainder of the 2022 season just days before the August 1 deadline.

Playing reserve grade for the Tigers at the time, there was a thought process that Nofoaluma would gain plenty out of the move south before returning to the Storm in 2023, including being involved in his first finals series, having never done so at the Tigers.
He has previously been open about what the Storm has meant for his game, suggesting the move has allowed him to enjoy his football again. He also didn't rule out the idea of exiting the Tigers on a more permanent basis.

That notion has now been squashed though, with Nofaluma telling News Corp that he hopes to take the skills he has learnt in Victoria back to Concord.
“It’s a personal thing for myself. I came down to Melbourne to gain some leadership and see some of the leaders here, how they are … it starts with the leaders,” Nofoaluma said.
“That was my focus in coming to Melbourne, not just to be a better player but to get an understanding on how to be the best for your teammates.”
Nofoaluma also admitted that he would have loved to be playing finals football with the Tigers.
“It’s a credit to those players and those teams that have done it in the past," he told the publication.
“For me now, it’s just about working hard and doing what is best for the team and getting the premiership.
“I would have loved it to be at the Tigers but it hasn’t seemed to have worked out for the club over the last 10 years.”

Nofoaluma is on-contract with the Tigers for a further three years, due to remain with the joint venture until at least the end of the 2025 season.
