Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[TigerWest]

In 2021 Wests Tigers are the youngest in the NRL, in 2019 we were the oldest.

Wow! really I think that says it all. Our brightest prospects are definitely our youngest, and it is why I am optimistic even if we don't land many big signings. They may not have been marquee signings, but I honestly believe Daine Laurie, Stefano Uto etc will be marquee players.

Hopefully, in a few years, the top marquee guys will be banging on our door to let them play here?

Why is Madge leaving, that would be our only hope, he reckons he had players ringing all the time wanting to play for him, give me a break, I am not that stupid

So you think he is lying (big claim), how do you know it's not right?

I actually can't recall him saying this? Where did you hear it?

He said it on a coaching insider one week. It definitely was said.

m not equating them but two years ago this current world beating Penrith squad missed the 8 (they came 10th behind Tigers). That team included Burton, Campbell Gillard, Nathan Cleary, Stephen Crichton, Dylan Edwards, Isaah Yeo, James Fisher Harris, Fuimaono, Kikau, Leniu, Leota, Luai, To’o. They were rubbish because they were kids but they were persisted with and kept together and developed into a great time. Our best players are still very young.

I don't think that's a fair comparison - that team was one of the favourites to win the comp in 2019. The sex tape scandal in the preseason had a huge impact on the playing group and they never recovered. The previous year they had all those players you listed above and they finished 5th.

Just goes to show that sex tapes definately affect your professional goal of achieving a premiership...maybe if they concentrated on what they get paid for this crap wouldnt happen,but any excuse will do...
At least Madge may have worked them hard and they had a sook,but gee a lot of our young guys are going to be great NRL players...and no misdemenours so far...

Penrith have a very good system in which to produce good young players. Cleary is also a very good coach. We can only hope our youngsters can play as well as the young Panther players.

Granted they do have a good system that has taken a long time to reach this level they have,smart people,hard work has put them there,Cleary is a good coach when he has quality players to coach....Madge is trying to do the same and build a system that will be competative for years to come....

Bearing in mind the development work of the panthers were not done by Cleary?

It's a great team out at the Panthers, both the playing group and coaching/development staff. Cleary is a very good coach.

You're probably right, but he was given an exceptional team to manage at Panthers?

1. It is a vote of confidence the Panthers entrusted the team to him.
2. He has the Panthers playing an exciting style of footy.

I enjoy watching the Panthers play due to their talent and wonderful style of football they produce.

I thought it was in part, to keep the son happy and at the club?

What happened when they had a few out? We flogged them. Not great coaching then?

They had 8 of their best players out. 8.

Scummy Pamfers need 8 origin players to beat da mighty Tigers... Paffetic

Where are the signings then, there are none, I call BS on Madge and that statement, you can take it or leave it, I don't care.
He lost the sheds at souths after 2 consecutive 12th place finishes, the players were trying to get rid of him, not sign up for more, souths sacked him, he is no good player magnet, he is a good player repellant

midway through 2019 Penrith realised they were not going to make the 8 and decided to blood the likes of To'o, Burton, Leniu, Martin & Crichton, who are all now mainstays of their side. yes their juniors are much better than ours, but players like DWZ, Whare, Waqa Blake, Egan and Hame Sele started for them in 2019. we're still a world away but to say those youngsters were first team regulars and the season was completely ruined by Tyrone May is a bit rich. there was a lot of dead wood in that squad.

It was pretty darn good squad. The sex scandal had a massive impact on the playing group, and I know that directly from people close to the Panthers. And if you remember it wasn't just Tyrone May, there were 3 separate tapes. It wasn't an isolated incident.

yeah I know, it properly scarred them. but in saying that, they cleared a lot of those players out and quickly. if anything the tapes being released made them clear the deadwood faster considering how poorly they performed.
