Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Elliott and Sims both make our team a better one.

Sims does. You don’t watch many dogs games I guess. He can’t defend and makes bad decisions and errors. Blore, Luciano are miles better even Garner is better. We don’t need him and he’s over rated badly.

Exactly RIGHT makes bad decision both one the field and off the field...... please are we going that bad that we want any hitch hiker passing thru

Lets be honest deep down we all know Woodsy will be at the tigers next year. No matter who is coach, football manager or ceo we all know he will be back.

Personally for the right price i dint even mind it.

I got that feeling too.

Hopefully not in my lifetime

Elliot is 27 and has just played 100 games.
If he was on low wage for squad depth sure.
If he was viewed as a starting forward no thanks.

He isn’t that great and comes from a losing culture. He is the signing we should be avoiding as an option for a starting spot.

Would take Simms over him anyday of the week

Both Elliot and Sims would be terrible signings. Along with Luciano they top all backrowers in the league on “try causes”. We need smarter players.

And I don't think he'll go away again
Aaron's seen the light
The world's too big to fight
And I don't think he'll go away again
(with apologies to Russel Morris)

If we had better options Woodsy wouldn't probably be on your most wanted list but his recent form at Cronulla was pretty solid, he's experienced and knows the club.

I thought a genuine game-breaking centre would be our main need for 2022.

Yep lets sign ANOTHER CENTER!

Every hiring, every talk it's CENTER CENTER CENTER.

We have James Roberts I think still on the books, TT and Oliver G.

But hey lets sign another center. Make sure any junior we have with talent knows our back line is blocked for their advancement with 3 people in front of them. (sure the door is still open with recent performances).

We have a problem in our spine, we have one fullback (a good one in Daine Laurie) but yes our problem is in the Centers! *facepalm*

Now I am up for Hiring a Center and wing who defend and play well together. But adding someone new in our backline just resets our defense. People need to learn who they can trust and how to defend. Pairing Nofo or our wing with someone new will take 6 months to get a solid combination.
Heck Adam D. makes sense at Center and up'd our defense there. Make a bid for Jerome Luai and move Doueini to Center.

Unless we are talking a really solid defender who can really up our abilities, why on earth would we hire a Center!
Elliot makes more sense and to get a good pipe from the dogs forward pack makes sense.

Did you hit your head recently?

He does mention the word “pipe”

We have enough Woods types forwards, we need a guy who can bust tackles and offload a bit more.

 

[Lee's fedora]

For the right price woods is a good buy hes a natural leader will get these young boys to fire up and he will play more than tamou

Does anyone think Luke garner could be a good Center ?

Sounds very Kyle Lovett-ish.

 

[Lee's fedora]

I get the lovett vibe from garner too

Elliot? Are you sure?
What about Darren Senter?
Don't be fooled by his name he's not a Center.

 

[Lee's fedora]

Isn't garner headed to manly thats what i keep seeing

What is the difference between Elliott's actions and Paul Vaughan's? I would argue that Vaughan deliberately put the game into disrepute. Guess where Vaughan is playing next year.... Adam Elliott may have made some poor decisions but he doesnt do it deliberately. He has a drinking problem which a good club lile the Rorters would definately resolve. If we want to have leadership at this club we might look at this and say it smells of salary cap m'ment, we might be able to help him if he signed with us. He actually might suit Madge's coaching style. If Madge survives. Any word onnthat? Would also add Simms should get a look from us as shpuld jn jn pearce. Leadership factor resolved possibly witg those signings... possibly. Blends youth and snr players in our team. For what its worth. I imagine the merry go round continues at our club and we might start all over again

To get to a point where you are in intimate situations with young women when you have a wife/partner and child, involves a number of decisions. Being allegedly intoxicated is no excuse. I feel for his wife/partner and child.

Elliott is single right?

He moved to the NT to be with his wife/partner and child when Covid first became an issue in NSW. There was a story on tv about him. He is intelligent and well spoken. I hope he finds a new club as he has something to offer.

I thought it was child and ex partner

Big whoop Elliot loves a drink. Still plays with heart and was a young leader for that dogs side. Bring him on the cheap cause he’s just been sacked, play him off the bench as spark at 13

Big woop if he does something stupid again mid-contract at the new club. Nobody is getting cross at him for what he did as an isolated incident, which was relatively benign, what they are upset about is he keeps on doing these things.

I remember back in the day when Balmain made a triple swoop i read it in the Sunday paper, Darren Senter Sean McVean and Greg Barwick i was so happy. Darren Senter turned out pretty good the others yeah nah. Circa 1995 i think and for you youngsters the internet was in its infantcy so thats how we got our news :call_me_hand:
