Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Still the NSW and Australian fullbck. Think hel be ok for 2-3 years haha

IMHO, JT >> Turbo, Ponga, Papenhousen ...

Rhys Kennedy is still not resigned by broncos, might be worth an approach, also noticed that Nikora still has not put pen to paper for sharks.

I though I read on the forum that Tedesco has seen that writing on the wall with Sualli replacing him and approached the Tigs to return after his Rorters contract finishes& they told him to get stuffed.

Sounds like us, turning down the current nsw fullback.

Hopgood can’t crack Penrith’s top 17 with most of their team out. Some here thought he should replace Joffa at lock.

Maika Sivo could not crack a wing spot for a couple of years at the Panthers go figure

I would be very surprised if any decent signing is announced before we sort out who is coach for next year.

How did I miss that?

It will be like Mini to the wing for you like what they did with Roger playing fullback Mini to the wing

Any talk of Tedesco declining is ridiculously premature. He’d easily be one of the favourites for man of the origin series and routinely runs for 250 metres plus. Seriously watch the footy.

After his second knee reco I think he will be there for the taking

 

[jirskyr]

As soon as Sualli starts out performing tedesco they’ll tell tedesco he isn’t wanted, that’s when he will want to come back to us when his career is near its end

Agreed but he won't come back.

 

[Demps]

Agreed but he won't come back.

Where will he go ?

There's really people in this world that think we told the NSW Blues captain to "Get Stuffed"?
Really?

 

[InBenjiWeTrust]

Some people like to put their individual dis as the news🤔

Well, I don’t. We should definitely tell Tedesco get stuffed

 

[Newtown]

Obviously it would depend upon how much money he wants. We don't want him to blow the good budget we have left.

 

[Wearealaughingstock]

Where’s the @insideman is he still barred.

 

[tigerballs]

We’re now after his second cousin, Hopbad

No!

Bit of a digression but still related to contracts, I would like to see the Club communicate to members & supporters which players are under contract to the Wests Tigers and their profiles (Top 30, Train & Trial, Jersey Flegg) and also Pathways squads (this so called Elite Development squad).

Yes if I dig around the forum and WT news articles & players section on the club website, I can piece a lot of this together but there is nothing that is simple to find. As a supporter, this information would be valuable to build that connection & following with our juniors. For example, it would be good to know if Dudley Dotoi is part of our Elite Development Squad and contracted to the Club in 2022 & 2023 - I'm just guessing that & using as an example.

If our new comms dept regime did this, they would get a big tick from me. I don't think any other Club does this either and I'm not sure why not (no privacy concerns surely).

The communication sucks. Use the NFL as an example. You know the high school, college, height weight, 40 yard dash, what they eat for breakfast....

Unless Tedesco secured an early release, the earliest he could change clubs would be in 2025 when his current deal expires. And the mere suggestion of Tedesco seeking a release to join the tigers is ridiculous because (a) he loves the roosters and (b) he has very little regard for our club.

Where will he go ?

Bean tree cafe Bondi, drinking Lattee's.
