Well it seems to be ok that Reynolds didn't see much first grade or Hoffman or Jennings etc.
it probably shouldn't be put to talau as you will not see first grade in 2021 but maybe with Momorovski coming back it might be tough to hold a spot in first grade for 2021 and with that he may have headed to storm for opportunity for 2021

That’s a joke .... right?

No mate I read it in the SMH...
We missed the opportunity to swap Talau when storm asked and subsequently likely to miss JAC.
We let Paps go no question asked but with talau we are intent on not letting him go for a current representative player its just disappointing. We could have convinced talau surely, in tha past we had Mommo that went to Melbourne and Fulton went to SL for a season to help the club perhaps talau could have been convinced of a year at the storm under bellamy

So you are taking what is told by the media as gospel? I’d say much like this forum 99.9% is rubbish as they have no idea what actually goes on behind closed doors.

Mike sorry I was being sarcastic to previous comment by Momo re SMH as he had a dig at DT and readership etc
No I don't believe the media etc yes especially DT they clearly make stuff up as they do not have any intel or comment from WT

But why couldn’t we focus on both? Why didn’t our retention guy (Jim Carey - cable guy) see this kids’ desire and spirit to succeed.

Go talk about it in the lament thread paws, the topic is done to death. Seriously, whatever the truth of it, the understandable or the terrible, it's coming on 4 years ago and there's no point looking back.

Most of the staff involved at the time aren't even with the club any more.

Let it go mate seriously, it's become a joke about you, soon it will move from being a joke to just being sad, like an old drunk in the corner of a dodgy pub.

Dont bring me into your arguements jirskyr,I like my corner in this dodgy pub thinking about what may have been.....giving my utmost support for this club the mighty WTs is what put me in this corner to start with...now I have to get myself out...hopefully a good 2021 will do the trick..

James Roberts heading to Newcastle ?? good luck

People that want to stab everyone in the back when their team does not win every game are very dangerous for a club. It is often used in the media and ends up sounding like the fans are calling for someone's head. You post quarter truths in the hopes of convincing others to join you in tearing everything down.

**Geese you talk some garbage** don’t know me but only to quick to judge me and criticise me because I have a differing view to yours . Easy to be critical on a anonymous forum, **no good getting personal on a forum**

You have posted 319 times, mostly attacking the club and Maquire, so I do know you a bit. If you post an opinion on a forum it is fair game.

I believe the comparison you make in the last paragraph is ordinary. In fact I believe it is very ordinary and you should withdraw it.

Confirmed? That's bad. Forget Dogs, JAC to Souths if that's the case, I'd put money on it.

No JD not confirmed officially but looking likely agree if it happens then JAC to redfern

That will be a bad move for his issues. They have a party culture up there but maybe being away from Sydney and his mates will help.

I'd think Souths would be making room to receive their ex forward back from the Roosters.

Agree very bad move for Roberts issues.
It is not confirmed officially yet, i didn't think they needed a Roberts really

Do people remember that just like with Addo Carr, the Storm went after Paps very aggressively early in the season. In March we had to pick between Teddy or Paps. Of course we chose to focus on the current NSW fullback over a kid with injury concerns. Then several months later it went to crap when Teddy chose to leave, but we weren't to know that back in March.

It's no coincidence the Storm are always very strong, and never buy rep players. They aggressively target youth coming off contract and make other teams pay up early or lose their guns.

But why couldn't we focus on both? Why didn't our retention guy (Jim Carey - cable guy) see this kids' desire and spirit to succeed. We were hardly overrun with players of his junior rep background. It was a serious failing which has had very significant consequences for our team. We are still searching for a fullback.

exactly - its not like he left us and started playing first grade fullback straight away. He did a Bradbury

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

I reckon it will be
Reimis Smith to Storm
Mansour or Naden to dogs
Roberts to Newcastle
JAC to Souths

No I don't believe the media etc yes especially DT they clearly make stuff up as they do not have any intel or comment from WT

Sorry I misinterpreted. Sometimes sarcasm gets lost with text.

Assuming we could get Rusty medically retired his $800k would be enough to get Crichton, either way we could I guess just go after him from 2022 on
Maguire brought him into first grade and coached him his first two years
There'd have to be some possibility I'd have thought

 

[Tigerbuck63]

So where are we at with Sam Mcintyre prior to the 1st of November surely we have upgraded him by now and sorted it out as he was one of the players that performed this season.

According to THE_POM's last post McIntyre would be confirmed in the near future. Fingers crossed.

I was visualising that and laughed
Unfortunately he was wearing a dirty old Tiger Jersey which isn't a good look for our club
If the Tigers don't find some success soon, that might be me sitting in the corner passed out and slouched over a table with a drink spilt all over me

That would be excellent. Angus Crichton is a fantastic player and could share the role with Blore on that right edge with Blore playing about 20-30 minutes a game.
