Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Merlot]

Two years ago when we targeted the best development forwards going round (Steph and Blore) everyone was stoked when we landed them and now again as they are progressing at NRL level.
Are the WTs still targeting the best rep juniors and maybe paying over to get them onboard or has the strategy changed?

the club hasnt handed over Luciano with out a fight.imho think covid did us a favour,didnt and now wont rush them through.etc etc

Who are the highly rated rookies coming through ?

Fullback, Logan Dillon
Winger, Liam Scolari
Centre, Israel Ogden
Halves, Kade Hill, Tyrone Roberts
Hooker, Mikey Tannous
Prop, Fonua Pole
Lock, Bray Guyan

@Kaito and @JC99 could name a few more

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.

No, it would improve by losing people like you. Go start your own forum.

Kelma has better footwork than Blore but Blore's defence is much better. Kelma got caught out a fair bit as a rookie. Think they're both about the same age, Blore has had injury troubles though.
People need to remember that half the people on here wanted to drop Stefano at the halfway point of the season, didn't understand the hype, just a plodder etc. Naivety at it's best

It really baffles me at to why they even signed him on 700k a year why not still with the young talent?

Not really. Why give away a potential star just to get a lazy back rower who can’t tackle a year early?

Why sign said player in the first place with all that potential talent in the squad?

Not like he brings much experience.

They’re a club similar to us the last couple of years, down on their luck. Their recent recruitment reminds me of us when we bought in Packer, Matulino and McQueen. Townsend and Luc are grossly overpaid.

Yeah, I agree.
They're a mess.

Payten seems like he's on a mission to disrupt, not a good coach imo.

Or work ethic....
He's not Luke Lewis or Paul Gallen - He's inspiring no one.

It's a good turnover isn't it. I know a guy close to the team and he stated that they had gotten rid of a lot of deadwood.
