Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[momo_amp_medo]

Boy the quality of this forum has taken a dive since the the last lot of mods were moved on.
If it wasn’t for the occasional visit update from the Pom it would be down to backyard squabbles ….
Good grief even LU WT forum is giving better value commentary.

Lol this place has flat out gone to shit

Lol this place has flat out gone to shit

Anybody who thought getting rid of mods would be an improvement has been proven wrong. It's a circle-jerk of "I'm entitled to an opinion" and "Leave then, you sook".

I feel kinda embarrassed when I think of what a newcomer would think when they saw this nonsense.

This place was never a haven in the midst of the internet though. We still have mods.
The people who whinge the most have been here the longest, myself included.
If any newbies don't like it I've heard there are other forums out there, even one that is exactly like this with about 12 members.

Missing boys here @cochise @hobbo1 @happy_tiger

Come back dudes.


Don’t forget Willow

Their posting happily together on their own forum now.

Yeah. Just sooks


Dude, it was sook behaviour from posters that got them canned to begin with. Pot meet kettle.

Oh well mate. Don’t like it, go on there forum.

Didn't I see someone asking for a link on the discord thread only to have the piss taken out of him? Was funny to see the irony in people complaining about being removed or a boys club treating someone like that.

Junior Paulo's management informed interested parties last night that he's staying at Parramatta.
No formal offer from the Tigers was presented.

So we still might be in with a chance if WTs did indeed make contact with Paulo and his management regarding coming.

No offence TP but your information of late is more miss then hit.

A discussion was had with his management, nothing more, no touring of the facility.
He's staying at the Eels.

Thanks Pom. I believe you 1 billion percent. Some info that an eels player with an islander surname did tour? Could it be Oregon? Ask your source

Can honestly say nothing about this has come across to me, Oregon was actually a target before he last signed with Eels.

If that’s all there was was just a discussion does that mean they are still hoping to land Thompson?

Club want's Thompson but Bulldogs are firm on the amount the are willing to chip in, would assume with there current cap situation they have this figure in mind for a reason but they will only cover at most 150k of his salary at the point in time.

Thanks @THE_POM for the update we do need another Prop to help Stefano upfront hopefully we land one soon

Think an semi-experienced hard runner is what the club needs to replace Tamou for 2023.

A mannequin on the sidelines wearing an oversized jacket could replace Tamou in 2022

@THE_POM any word we’re making a decent play for Luki as well? Nanai and Luki are both going to be weapons and surprised we’re not making a play for both.

Hey mate I think he mentioned we might get nani for 23 which could prompt a away for luch but nothing happening by Christmas. Luki seems like a no go

You're entitled to your opinion

 

[Masterton]

**This place was never a haven in the midst of the internet though.** We still have mods.

To me, it was. Wasn't perfect, but at least people would argue about football rather than taking snide pot-shots. And the mods we have never seem to do anything to stop the incessant bickering.

 

[Masterton]

You’re entitled to your opinion

lol. Is there a less meaningless phrase? Yes, you're entitled to your opinion. So is this person you're arguing with. If you're on a public forum, it kinda goes without saying.

Anyways, I'll get off my high horse and get back to praying for another decent signing.

Off Season bro

Nope!
The standard has slipped considerably.
But if you recon it’s now better, you like it well that’s fine.

Parra needed Paulo more than we do. probably paid massive overs for him too. plenty of decent front rowers on the market and already at the club, just gotta make the right calls. would love to see Braden Hamlin-Uele in a WT jersey.

I dunno about that, he looked like a beast a few seasons ago but didn't offer much at all last season. Gives me Leilani Latu vibes.

This is the first 'squabble' I've seen in ages. I've found the forum to be no different if not better since the changing of mods.

It's the off season, not much is happening

Is it new posters that are lowering standards?

 

[Cobarcats]

Come on tiger fans cheer up for God's sake, we are after all on the same side.
What's Blonde and smells really bad in a closet? The Hide and Seek Champion from 1995.
I'm hoping for a big signing to be announced on Friday arvo, it could be Stef on a 4 year extension, have faith grasshoppers.

Any wests tigers Signing news upcoming?

Cowboys & Tigers continued discussions end of last week about Luciano's potential immediate move but Cowboys unwilling to budge on player swaps.
Sheens hopeful Nanai will sign for 2023 & then is would be a formality of those 2 trading places, but Cowboys would need to take all of Luciano's salary for 2022.
Gives the club more money to spend, don't expect this to be resolved till after Christmas.

@THE_POM do you know if Dudley Dotoi is still training with the squad? There was a comment a couple of weeks back that he may have returned or wants to return to NQ. I think having Dotoi here may help with getting Nanai over the line as they are friends from school.

2015 is nearly seven years ago. Natural slowdown occurs. Tamou is a typical Wests Tigers bad years signing.
