Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Seen plenty of them rolled out for Simpkin’s, Laurie, Doueihi and Hastings this year already….

Funny they’re the same excuses - maybe that’s the problem… the same reason the new kids get are the same excuses the old blokes had
All the excuses and support for some is due to the fact that we see potential in certain players and are quick to blame other players for making it hard for their fav to perform.
The fact is, in my opinion, that our failure is due to salary cap/dud buys and a football club that reeks disorganisation.
All of which means for years now our roster has had more holes in it than my fav socks.
There has to be a good balance of players right across to top 30 to allow players to reach and maintain their potential.
As far back as post 05 success we haven't had a top 4 roster which includes players, coach and front office.

It’s all related. Nathan Clearys kicking game in origin was shit because his forwards got bashed. Same same

I agree - the particular game I was referring to however, was possibly the worst game I’ve seen us play….
Cows in 2015 at Campbelltown.
Horrendous
 
I just wish the new powers that be would give us some update who are we recruiting ? Our forum is scouring all the rejected or out of favour players at other clubs .That's what I call bottom feeding
I guess can't say much till some deals done but the silence is depressing

Also under the new regime - all heads will be shaved.

No flashy haircuts any more.

I crave signing news too, but to be fair, any time we outline a target, we always miss. Our best signings seem to pop up out of nowhere and are done in the space of 24 hours or so. Eg. Api and Papali'i.

Sheens has expressed the need for a 'ferrari' and a bit of experience in the right positions. I am sure him and Benji are discussing who they can make a play for now that fits that mould and who they can approach come November 1.

I am sure some signings will come soon!
 
Michelle bishop just made a good point said that it's true benji has declared interest in Moses and pointed out what does that mean for our current halves. Hastings, AD, LB. Ect.

What’s the bet we miss out in mosses and piss the rest off in the process

If this is the path we are going I’d be hopeing for doughi and Moses in the halfs
 
Do your recruiting in the shadows not in the public forum. Benji doesn't need to feed the news trolls, he needs to understands what works.....Big, fast aggressive forward pack to lay the foundations and works hard in defense so your halves and backs benefit off the back of that......not hard to figure out especially if you are a former half.....get your forward pack right first period.
 
No need to get angry over a rumour mate.
I'm not angry, just miffed why we keep on getting stung with rubbish stories.

Journos know that Tiger's supporters are easy clickbait, but this ongoing narrative needs to change.

I sure hope so .I worry that not many footballers keen to come to the bottom club .

I really think we leak our movements enough. Tell us when we sign someone officially sure, otherwise they should keep their mouths shut.

You just answered your own question my dude.
 
I would love us to sign some decent backrowers and a speedy back.
I was thinking about Cowboy's Hamiso (the hammer).
He is having trouble displacing Hiku who is in great form.
I know the hammer, who is was a cowboy junior, is signed for 2023 but I was wondering what or if there is any good will regarding the early release of Lucy to them.
The downside is Hiku is 31? The Hammer is 21?
I think it would be hard to extract him from Townsville unless they have cap issues trying to retain players 🤔
