Isaiah Papali’i off to Paramatta good pickup for them would’ve liked him here

another missed signing..I thought Madge was after him

Interested to know who the centres will be for next year,BJ was poor in his first year,Mbye not much better,Talau was in and out of the team,Aj has been used on the wing,Hoffman played 1 game and was highly rated by Madge,Momirovski possibly cOming back,William Kei getting a top 30 or development spot,who does Madge run with?

Way too soon to speculate. You would expect BJ to be one.

Unless there is consistently poor form, would be nice to have a stable 1-17 next year, baring injuries ...the chop and change approach didnt really work...

Looking at the Grand Final with a glass half full rather than half empty.

WT next year will have the starting Prop from Penrith, likely to have the starting winger from Storm and Momo back in the fold being part of the Storm finals squad and living and learning in the bubble.

Surely these players can add experience to our squad and lessons learnt from contesting a Grand Final.

Also Marshall and Lawrence bring an end to the so called "Boys club" so a fresh start to the team and no reference to the 2005 Grand Final.

Still think 2021 will be a lean year if we retain Reynolds and Packer but more excited about the 2022 season with money to spend and some of these juniors some of the Forum Member's talk up old enough to player NRL.

Maybe we can just fast forward 2021 for our own sanity.

For what it's worth Storm to have too much experience and really love the size of their pack and Kenny has taken his game to a new level. Storm to beat Penrith on Sunday.

Take care and stay safe WT Forum Members and to the people who run this Forum you are the real legends in my eyes. Best set up NRL Forum going around.

Also once we sign JAC we will have both wingers in the team of the year 2020 in our side as well

Think he will be 100 x better without Benji being inside him.

I agree Russ, I was saying this early in the year, if we drop Benji BJ will be a better player for us, Benji runs across field and jams up his outside men

Isaiah Papali’i off to Paramatta good pickup for them would’ve liked him here

Strange one as 13/12/11 look covered at Parra. He has openly said he wants to play back row and we (seemingly) would have been a much better fit.

I was hoping we would get him as he is better than Garner and also a better 13 than we have.

Tons of these second tier guys gone or going...you would like to think we have something up our sleeve.

What's the word on Suali? Apparently Madge has been sniffing around. Any chance?

@THE_POM mentioned Madge is interested but that his management are difficult to deal with. I think we’ll end up steering clear.

Hope you’re joking, he is terrible. You won’t find a single Warriors supporter that is upset to see him go

And gave him the ball about three times in the whole season.

Also made him come in by missing tackles or because he was arm grabbing.

Will only ever see the field if a bench forward is injured. Good reason he’s only been picked up on a 1 year deal

My Dog does a lot of sniffing around, always comes home happy.....

I never read that anywhere just wanted him to come over personally haha

 

[KevB]

JAC not coming. We have an unprofessional administration (maybe the worst in the league in terms of stature) and a hard ass coach, and a bad roster thats not top eight material. The dogs despite being poor for a while, have success ingrained, with deep pockets, some good purchasers, and Barrett's a nice guy. Looking at all the teams in the league we are probably last in terms of where people want to go. Sad but true. Need a new CEO, board, and either back the coach and pay overs for juniors or get a more liked coach, or just pray for another 2005 perfect storm.

Stop right there mate. Don’t want spam about Matto joining WT from some of our brainless fans ?

 

[hsvjones]

There seems to be some signing news around today expect for us of course.
we haven't even announce any resigning either so we either must have JAC locked in and just waiting to Melb release him to announce something.
or
I pray we have some other back up plans in place..
I even be happy snapping up a big name for 2022 after Nov 1 and maybe his current club release him early..

Anybody else get the feeling Parra are already on their way back down?

Not at all 3 players are upgrades on who they let go. Opacic is very under rated.
