Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

A+ coz he’s certainly not damaged goods.

No he’s not. We persisted with him when we was.
I’m more thinking the age.

Just saw a post from Danny Wiedler where Andrew Fafita is going to retire. He was saying he had meetings with clubs but the body can't take anymore.

That makes him an ideal Wests Tigers signing.

Yes, possibly an issue but bringing a Kangaroos, State of Origin and club captain to the club would definitely be a plus.
Organising defence, line breaks, safe hands and capable defender all very useful for us.
I can certainly live with his age for a couple of seasons.

I’m fine with TT staying another year, if he pulls through we will get 1st crack at him. He has upside and backrow has been calling for a while so be good to see him train as a backrower and see how he folds out with a good year or so in the gym getting ready for it

He's only played 1 1/2 seasons and scored 19 tries - that's a lot of tries given the rabble he was part of.

Dom Young is a Melbourne storm like signing.

Be ahead of the curve and make him an offer now and get it done.

He trumps any of our boys.

Don’t remember anyone raving about him during the season , or is it just his WC form against moderate opposition ?

Just a player that's really developed throughout the year.

Has all the physical attributes you'd want in a modern winger.

Would be the best winger in the game on a roster like Melbourne's.

I expect 2023 he'll have a break out season, catching bombs off Luke Brooks.... 😉

Can we stop talking about Luke Brooks he is contracted till the end of 2023 and only ever been loyal to this club.

Is asking three times for a release and tanking games being Loyal?

I recall Fafita saying after the last regular game of the season that he wanted to play on and still had plenty to give. Well now after his latest comment is that the clubs that were interested, us one of them most probably it's most likely too mentally difficult rather than physically.

Quite possible.

What about in a roster like ours, or is LB now going to Storm. 🤣

,

Nathan Malone has to be the all time worst still.

In memory of geo ill @happy_tiger if the original, once likened him to ranouf.

I totally forgot about Villa the Gorilla he should have been something very special life lesson don't steel off your team mates while on tour

Knights hardly created opportunities for him but still managed to get across the line a fair bit. At the RLWC he gets some space and is lethal.

He would be a very good pickup on the edges for us speed, size and agility all things Sheens loves.

Garrick to the Knights it seems….. to FB with Pongy to 6 and ……Gamble at 7….lol

 

[bathursttiger1]

I want to phrase a question at this point. Before that I will make a statement, the mob mentioned about minus Klemmer were old and considered damaged goods.
What’s the take on getting Tedesco back at his current age ?

He's not a front rower, that makes a little bit of differenct I think.

They don’t want our Brooksy anymore?

 

[dazza65]

Exact comment was…” the rumours won’t die, despite constant and emphatic rejection from WT”. So who the hell knows…lol

 

[Demps]

Garrick is a fantastic recruitment move.

Well done to them.
Looks like a Newcastle player imo.

 

[Champ1]

Maybe and maybe not. Its no secret he’s already asked 2 times for the release both times was denied. All he has to do is play the mental health card and he’ll be let go. Don’t know if he will actually do that like Moses did but if he does he’s outta there.

Sorry old mate you if you base your info on 360 or buzz or Hooper you are a fool . At no time has Luke been on the record asking for a release. Who is the biggest fool… the fool or those who follow him ?
I copy & pasted it just for you Camel........with some they have to read it twice to understand.

Noooooooooooooooo
