Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

It has been a huge week this week.

Been a roller coaster ?

All good signings so far. Adding Joe O and Siro would be amazing.

I reckon Joe is just getting into the Tigers pages for the lawn mowing memes.

Tips on how to cut someone else's grass.

Just have to ask Matt Moylan.

Is someone pulling our chain

Where does it say he is following the WT's

Only thing I saw he is a proud Ipswich boy .....at least that gets him one tick from me

But I already knew he was a Brothers boy ...either the year before or after Seve from memory

instagram or TWITter..one of those

Instagram mate

No it isn't ....checked it 10 minutes ago

Look up nrl_weststigers on Ofahengaue’s following list

OK I just assumed it would be on his main page ...not a twittererer ...don't have an account ..have to take your word for it

2021 looking like finals season with all these signings 👀👀

Definitely!

Big scoop @Everything-WT

Well done

 

[Aubanon]

Good signings low risk high reward.

Madges has done a great job recruiting at this stage with on 1/3 of his cap still unplayable

Hartigan

 

[Aceshigh]

A couple of days ago there were those bagging Madge about who he can’t attract to the club , go figure

 

[WT2K]

Good job Hartigan

 

[BalmainJnr]

Dude has been low key on 🔥

2021 looking like finals season with all these signings ??

I wouldn’t get too ahead of ourselves - our potential spine is yet to play together and some of our backs are known for leaking a lot of points. Still a lot of question marks. I’ll make a judgement when the season is over.

I’d start to get excited to see Brooks play off some go forward. Tamou, Big Joe, Stefano and Curtis would get us rolling with LL picking his times.

I'm excited to see Madden challenge him. Luke Brooks and the word excitement the building two years sgo

Healthy competition will be good for him. No Benji too. I don’t care how good a halfback is he needs a strong pack to play consistently

Ohh the bo benji excuse

Thanks for being consistent Brooks fans.

Definitely could use a second rower now! Still two spots if we sign Joe O I’m pretty sure

Haha he was horrendous last year, no doubt.

But our forward pack was pulverised all year.

And Benji over calls him to go the hero play all the time

Funny what a week in league can do...If JOF does sign:

Tamou for Aloiai (Improvement stats wise)
Joe OF for McIntyre (improvement)
James Roberts for Robert Jennings (Improvement)
Stefano for Eisenhuth (Unproven, though large wraps on Stefano)
Laurie for Benji (Unproven but young with huge wraps)

I would say we have come out on top with our gains compared to losses both financially and talent wise. The only real impact is the loss of Grant but hopefully Simpkins can be the next best thing.

Good to see us making smart decisions.

The old saying - "don't count your chickens" Vinnie

Joe for Sam mac is not an improvement - we don't have Joe = a loss.

We didn't lose Grant - never had him, he was on loan.

And Liddle is a nobody??? go for Simpkin though without 1 game of NRL..

 

[Boa constrictor]

Joe had a stinker of a 2019 but if the deal is subsidised I'm happy with a leap of faith that he can re-capture the 2018/19 form. I know people are saying that he can replace Josh but he may also be an option as a right edge back row rotation (with Blore). Played edge and middle for Brisbane

 

[Boa constrictor]

Apologies - meant to say stinker of a 2020

If we get Joe O and Siro we’re not getting the spoon. Not even close. It’s a competitive squad.

Certainly different vibe on the Forum with a couple of signings the word for 2021 is PATIENCE

Facebook on the other hand is still packed with whingers complaining about every signing. It's a frustrating read.

If BJ and Jimmy the Jet play to their potential we will carve it up.

 

[balmain boy]

I used to love watching Joe's dad play for the Wallabies. The first of the islanders to play that aggressive power game at prop.

Would welcome Joe. On over 500k though so Broncos would need to tip in at least 100k a year

 

[TillLindemann]

I think we are going to be a much better squad for not blowing the bank on JAC.
