Folks the whole year has been a dead set stinker, all round. A few rounds of terds still to be dished up by us, unfortunately 2023 can’t come quick enough.
Shithouse seeing us tigers supporters argue amongst ourselves on keyboards about brooks. Hopefully in the off season himself and the board do whatever is best for both parties.

Personally, I believe we need a centre specialist and 2 x second rowers.

Solomona faataape - easts tigers in Qld cup.(mariner I think will be a barn burner, we are now chance.

Preston Riki - panthers

TC Robati- broncos

The rest what is available is pretty ordinary.

Our year on and off the field in 2022 is a hard sell to anybody.

We need a centre & back rower.
Laurie
To’a
Tupou
New Signing
Maumalo
Douiehi
Brooks
Hastings (c)
Papalii
New Signing
Ofahengaue
Koroisau
Stefano
Bench
Peachey
Blore
Pole
Musgrove

I think Junior Tupou has the potential to become a very good centre if given the opportunity.

Onitoni Large is who they are talking about. The kid is a gun. He is the one of the best I have seen watching schoolboy football for nearly 50 years. His brother Ashton, who is a hooker, is also a gun. The Rorters were sniffing around Onitoni, but he signed with the Tigers.

The problem is can we keep him, only 16 years old I believe.
 
Just can’t work out why the hell we have trouble getting talent , give me the two million odd we have in cap space and I would pick up the best fringe players who can’t make 1st grade , could sign them for a medium fee than if they preform they get a upgrade , I think we make things harder than they really are .

I'd say it's because we have to offload/release (payout) players first who are on contract (Peachey, Gildart, Liddle, Simpkins) as we already have Paps, Api, Pole, Rua, Fainu coming into the top 30.
 
If Gus knows that 4 to 5 players would walk by sacking Madge , I want Gus to know that he’s having the same problems, as BMack has privately mentioned before.
Gus should also know money talks and BS walks.
WT have identified JK as a player to watch. Get the coins out.

Thanks Gus 100%BS on 9
 
Since Tim ,Benji ,Robbie have little to say on recruitment the suggestions and rumours category is all we have
If I had to pick our absolute best 17 for next year mine would be
1.Laurie
2.Nofoaloma
3.Talau/ (new signing)
4.Naden
5. Maumalo/ Toa if Kenny not fit
6.Douehi
7.Madden
8.Musgrove
9.Korisau
10.(new signing)
11.Papalii
12.Utoikimano
13.Offengauhe

14.Nu Brown
15.Pole
16.Matamua
17. ( our best from junior development)

The major omissions are Brooks (just my opinion) and Tamou as I think can do better than his 35 mins a game
Hastings not there as think his rehab will run past season opening but of course he would be there if fit . Talau fitness also an unknown
We need to recruit a top class center and big forward at minimum
 
1. I would still be talking to Angus' manager. He is still "free".
2. I'd also be in Tapine's ear, but he's signed there for a while longer - he may start to decline by the time we can get him across though.
3. Look at the Manly 7 - they may not want to don the rainbows again next year. Any of them worth looking at?
