Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

hear me out, but looking at what's available on the market, I'm fairly sure that apart from a centre (Farnworth) and a front rower (Hamlin-Uele, Taupau, Franklin Pele) that we have just about everything we need for a decent tilt in 2023.

Papali'i and Koroisau will do us wonders, Stef, Daine, Doueihi, Blore, Tuilagi etc will have another year under their belt and we'll see a lot of deadwood cleared in the mould of Liddle, Tamou, Garner, Leilua & Mikaele. as well as this we should see the emergence of a couple of decent youngsters in Dillon, Tumeth, Pole & O'Kane which always gives us a shot in the arm. again, there's a couple of players that would certainly improve us, but I feel as if we've done exceptionally well for what's available and should trust in our youngsters and gems in the squad.
 
Last time I checked now that Willow and Cochise are gone we are allowed an opinion around here.

My 2022 motto is just that. You guys don't need to get on board. No one is asking for your approval. It's my opinion.

Peace out!

Very interested to see how Tuilagi progresses as a 2nd rower. I’m guess he will be competing with Garner for a bench spot this year.

Precious as ever. Last time I checked there is a quote button. It’s there for a reason.

The quote feature lol

How draconian.

Next you'll be pulling me up on my spelling like @Geo
 
For the record and without a direct quote look who resorted to the personal "precious as ever" comment without any provocation.

Willow and Cochise were a start. This place could improve a lot more by losing these kind of posts.

I just didn’t get why you were so annoyed that people quoted you with a different view point. Sorry if you take it personally, but it’s a pattern with you that you take innocent disagreements about the game as personal jabs at you. Your reaction now, mentioning former mods for no good reason is case in point.

Nice try but not buying in to it.

In all honesty I just couldn't be bothered quoting two posts so put up a community post.

Sorry other people were mean to you but I wasn't one of them. Move on.

You aren’t mean. You just take every game related disagreement as playing the man.

yeah me too. Especially with garner and Tuilagi both off contract after 2022

I’d be happy to give Garner his walking papers. He showed glimpses off the bench last year, but he’s a proven plodder. Let’s aim higher.
 
Garner is painfully average.

Might be his last year along with Tamou, Mikaele and Offa.

Manly were keen, were they not ?

Anyway I think Seyfarth and Kelma offer more.
Rather we develope out development second rowers or fast track Guyan.. need more sting from our back rowers.
