Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I find it strange that Gus has already come out and said Hoffman release is correct and he would be in there top 30.... Yet Crickets from the club
I would of thought Gus would not say a thing until Tigers announced it unless it has already been done and we are just very very slow

For me I think its a great idea as he has not showed too much and gives up an open spot for an unexpected player if they come onto the market.

@THE_POM any update?

Free up a roster spot Is a good move

If Hoffman is released, I'd be 80-90% sure Pauga will be promoted....
Pauga played 2 games last year, Hoffman 0
Pauga is still with us....
He's not here to play reserves (He can do that back home in QLD)

I'm no mathematician, But that's how it calculates to me.

There's absolutely no point in promoting Pauga. It's already very disappointing we've wasted money and a roster spot on roberts. Pauga is even worse than roberts. He probably won't play NRL again in his life. He might play nsw cup, and if he does, and does well then maybe he'd get a callup to first grade.

We have plenty of cap space, signing a 6th choice backup centre would be terrible. We do not need any more centres, unless they're Origin calibre.

More likely to go to a forward, but ideally they'd hold on to the spot to see who becomes available during the season.

Don't disagree mate, I don't see anything there....
Just how I see it going - A gut feeling if you will.
I assume Star To'a is the replacement / Upgrader for Hoffman.

Honestly, Can't see us signing a forward outside trade for Luciano unless Payne Haas (Or someone of high calibre) becomes available.
Looking at the site, We're stacked for forwards - And light on backs (Not even considering the injuries we have there)
We just don't have enough OB's to start with, My guess is the spot gets filled by an OB, Pauga seems to have something someone likes (He's down here for a reason I assume)
- at best an OB gets promoted to a development deal (Ogden et.)??

Who would be a better prospect to take Hoffman's spot? Ogden, Fuatimanu or Dillon?

out of those three, probably Logen Dillon. that said I think we'll leave the spot open and wait and see what plays out with the player market mid-season.

Wasnt it Dillon that recently busted his ACL in training?

Nofa revving the boys behind the sticks after he has let in 3 tries, Great idea

 

[tiger_scott]

Noffa has got 1 wing spot sewn up and is on the field for the full 80 each week. Has been at the club for his whole career, so ticks a few boxes to be captain. Might not be a bad option actually. A 10 minute a game prop or an introverted halfback are probably not the answer either, so why not give him a crack?!
