Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Balboy, appreciate your opinion. Its just mine. I’m a fan and wouldn’t be insulted by Luc moving on early so we can pay forward contracts and secure further funds for a marquee.

I actually find your post a little insulting but all good. Fans can have their say and I respect that. Have a good night buddy.

Yes you're certainly entitled to your opinion, it's just that you're opinion is doing the same thing that we've already been doing the past few years which has got us nowhere, whereas I think I different and stronger approach is required. All good, just my opinion

My beef with just giving him away for nothing is it continues to set the walking over attitude our club has been known for.

Matto and Moses left for nothing yet Parra wouldn’t release Stefano a year early.

Josh leaves for nothing

We got Laurie early for Momo

End of the day we shouldn’t be giving up a quality asset for nothing.

We also have a 2nd backrow spot filled by Kelma/Garner who are leaving and could easily be prioritized over moving out best quality backrower onwards. Give a kid 12 weeks beside Lucy would be better than giving them 12 weeks beside Kelma

Exactly

I have never seen a player regress as badly as Brooks has. Geez it’s ugly viewing. Glad he is off contract next year because at this rate I doubt we could even trade him.

We would be dumb enough to resign him for another 5 years.

Well Madge did do that to Nofa and Musgrove, lets hope the new coach isn’t that dumb.

We need a massive roster overhaul. The players we rate as our best are just average first graders who look good in our side.

Been the same for years.

Unfortunately unless you have kids coming through the ranks we won't have much in a change roster wise. We can only recruit a limited number of external NRL players.

Guess the next few years are going to be real tough for us until we get the "pathways" run of kids coming through consistently

TIGERS COUP

The Wests Tigers have signed NSW Waratahs and Randwick rugby centre Tristan Reilly. He is a 23-year-old from Kempsey who had been earmarked as a future Wallaby. This is a handy signing for whoever gets the Wests Tigers coaching job.”

Anyone see this kid play ?

Interesting

Yeah . A bit “left field “

 

[wet tiger coloured bird]

who would dare think outside the square?

We have so many “ether” players. Players that are in the ether between reserve grade and first grade. Play above reserve grade level but not good enough for first grade. Liddle is the prime example. Kills cup every time he goes back but can’t own a spot in firsts. Seyfarth another example, I could keep going.

He has some pace

Lee H was responsible for the Nof fiasco both in length and amount,Musgrove is a different matter

Could this be a coincidence ..
Tigers are set to meet with CC this week
Ciraldo maybe already working his magic quietly behind the scenes. (Future signing)
Both Ciraldo and Reilly are originally from Eastern Suburbs
Or I'm making abit much of it lol.

 

[Krammy]

It’s annoying to say but wait till Lucy gets to cowboys he will turn into an absolute beast

Quite possible, but if he continues to be lazy in defence like he is at the Tigers, Payten will show him the Qld Cup dressing room quick smart.

Reilly is from South West Rocks and played SG Ball for Souths. He won a scholarship to St Josephs College Hunters Hill like Kurtley Beale, signed with Randwick and was with the Waratahs. He may well know Daine Laurie whose family is from the North Coast.

We have to get one right eventually
