Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[TillLindemann]

On second thought, I wouldn't be opposed to signing him for the rest of the season.

Short term stint this year with a club option for next year if he doesn't seem like a knob, would be good.

Scott is 23 and would be a massive, massive, upgrade on what we have.

He is also a massive .... not allowed to type the word.

Would be a very good signing IF he matures and grows up.

Disaster if he does not.

No he isn’t ? he’s been in and out of the Canberra team ever since he’s been there and that’s for on field performance. He is garbage.

How was he at Melbourne? I can't even remember.

At Melb he was elite defensively. Origin also.

Curtis Scott commits

Watch this space peeps ?

Anyone who punches Dylan Walker in the face is fine by me..

Uknow what that’s a great point all we need to do now is hang on to brooks and we have the two players who have punched 2 of the biggest grubs in the game lol!!

Very risky signing.Every day i would be concerned about the possible headlines and with DT involved i can sure we will get them.Slothfields eyes have just lit up

Genuinely can’t believe anyone thinks is a good deal in anyway. This is why we suck.

Scott is part of Sam Ayoub's stable. I wonder if we agreed to place his client at WTs, we get one of his top stable mates at WTs? Wishful thinking I know.

 

[ElleryHanley]

Scott isn't exactly a great defender. He would actually be our best centre - just don't see him working out long term

Surely they don't sign him just for this year though.

He averages 90% tackle rate...this season.

Not bad thinking though. Maybe.

I don't give the club much credit but I don't think they'd be dumb enough to sign him. It would be ridiculous.

You don't give the club any credit, so being dumb enough to sign him should be entirely in line with your expectations of the club.

Agreed. But to be honest if he cant defend would pay 25c for the phone call. Defense is what we lack, and if you cant! Then dont come here….you are not welcome. Let the government pay for your services.

Our current centers are Talau and Mbye...

Eh, that stat isn't a super effective way to measure an outside backs stats. Doesn't really show if they're rushing up and missing tackles or letting people run past them and he struggled for raiders early this year

You could say it validates my thoughts

He has averaged 85-87 all his career. He also excelled in Origin defensively.

He can defend.

He is a long way from being a decent bloke though...

 

[Wildcat777]

Dont care about percentages. Was only important in year 8 maths. Wuestion i eant to know does he make 30 tackles per match?

He’s never played origin ?

 

[Wildcat777]

Apologies post in haste.

 

[clontarfkid]

Sounds like were really desperate for just one NRL quality centre.....news flash..WE Are!!
The Englishman is fast but a lightweight..the others arent gonna make it at centre or are past their best -buy date
Just glad we wont have him and TPJ on the same team!

 

[jrtiger]

Scott can defend, that's about it. comes with a heap of baggage and I don't think he's turned in a good performance in the past 2 years. have we learned anything from the Roberts situation?

What's this?
