Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

https://youtu.be/F0pQcK8jVzo Dillon looks very good

THats actually a pretty impressive reel for a change. Hate to say it but runs like Teddy.

Dont see it

Something about the way he lowers his body height as he hits top gear.

I noticed this similarity with Tedesco's running style as well, he bends his upper body, and lowers his center of mass, this makes him more balanced, easier to change his direction, and harder to tackle.

Think Ted had more speed at his age.

Don't know about that - Dillon can motor - he's on par with Papenhuyzen for speed.

Isn’t that Dillon kid signed elsewhere or was that another of our up and comers?

Jordan Hill. Apparently goneskies

There might be an 11th hour reprieve, maybe.

Ahh yeah recall his name I confused the two, obviously he’s decent the other kid I’m guessing.

They are a lottery at that age. Can’t truely get a gauge to they play NRL.

It's a shame Jordan Hill was let go because our back 5 in flegg genuinely have a great balance of speed, strength, skill and tenacity.

1. Dillon
2. Scolari
3. Ogden
4. Iverson
5. Hill

A backline that should've progressed together through the grades. Hopefully we keep the rest of them and they can feature through KOE and NRL in the next couple of years for us.

You reckon?

 

[Needaname]

We need a backup fullback and a centre more than anything. Talau could miss a lot of games and Doueihi is our only other option at fullback besides Laurie.

Find a young fullback in reserves somewhere who can cover the wing too if necessary.

I’d say experience cover would be better. Caleb Aitkens would be one.

Fogarty on the way to Canberra apparently.

That’s how strong clubs negotiate. Meanwhile we’re stuck with Brooks.

Who is the strong one - Raiders or Titans? Fogarty is being let go because they see more long-term with Sexton, Brimson and Campbell. And Raiders went without a halfback for most of the season.

The whole lack of info of the Jersey Flegg cup across the league is atrocious.

There is nothing on club websites regarding players there is nothing on NSWRL.com regarding highlights or anything.
Only the draw and ladder results.

Logan dillon?

Tex hoy maybe?

Well our new Coaching Director brought through Tedesco. I have no doubt he will have a positive influence on Dillon and all our players. I am really looking forward to his influence on our younger players.

Can't tell if sarcastic or not lol

I am a big supporter of Sheens and always have been. I believe it is a very smart (Gould called it shrewd but for other reasons imo) to bring him home.

Will sheens be chief negotiator in recruiting?

Hartigan with assistance from Sheens are more than capable of carrying forward recruitment and retention. I see both as our biggest assets and both reflect positively on the WTs. I hope it works this way because speaking with Sharks' supporters in my area, all think very highly of Sheens.

Nothing is certain but that backline really does have some long term potential if we can keep them together.

If you watch that Dillon footage, a couple of times Jordan Hill the very tall and very fast winger on the left sets up tries with his pace and evasion.

So did we.

 

[Devon Head]

I still think we should take Ash Taylor on a cheap contract.

At worst he walks into a starting spot in the KOE team. Puts pressure on Brooks to perform or get dropped. Didn't have a dreadful season this yr. For min wage I'd take him.

Tex hoy maybe?

Dillon is Papz 2.0
Should be treated and developed as such.

Tex Hoy isn't a first grader IMO.
He's not an ideal backup.

Hoy is dreadful under the high ball and his only real positive attribute is he's illusive with the ball. Hoy is notorious for colliding with his own team-mates as well.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

A lot of suggestions for players who are barely playing first grade. 9 times out of 10 they aren’t playing first grade for a reason. They aren’t going to magically transform coming here. And given the space we have in the cap, we should be aiming a lot higher
