I dont think AD would stay if he was going to play centre cause he sees himself as a five eight

 

[Roar_Power]

Can't see it happening tbh.

AD stays at 6 or he leaves and plays 6 elsewhere.

Feel like Madden goes.
Brooks stays.
And Sheens builds a strong pack around them.

Start building…..quickly!

More that he wants to get paid as a #6.
A serious club would have him at centre until he's proven he can handle it, but we'll probably get scared and roll over for him.

Naden has been really good IMO.
He had a couple of mistakes tonight but should of had 2 tries and he is quite quick.
He puts in an effort unlike some. Excellent extension IMO

Agreed, Actually should have scored 4 tries in the second half. Naden did score one and it was taken off him. Shocking call. Long run from his own end while kicking the ball, just a bad bounce denied him his second. That log second row imposter was over the line and had the ball knocked out. This bloke, who is going to Manly next year had his first hit up with 7 minutes to go in the first half. Can you believe that.

Then Garner only had to pass a normal ball to our winger for number 4. So, they never were going to win that game, but the second half was quite good. A bit of luck and the usual pile on merchants on this forum would not have much to complain about. Look forward to next year.

Convinced 100% Kelma , never top grade here again.Happy he’s going .

Does anyone know what is happening with Noddy next year? I hope he at least goes back to his old job. I like him and I think he's been stitched up this season.

Was reliably told that Noddy met with bulldogs officials at a well known Belmore cafe several weeks ago.... And before that so did Madge at same cafe. Interesting no Ciraldo announcement yet.

I said before Madge has problems with TPJ & JAC , and J Reynolds wanting back. Gus is stuffed, CC can’t coach, fraud of the century like Barrett.

Someone wrote here that he was going back to his old job in charge of our pathways.

Think we need our money given to a frontrower before Garrick
Haas or tapine

Although he has gone well lately, I'm just not convinced about Laurie. I know...hard to please, but just not a fan.

I think Garrick is a better player (even a better fullback than Laurie) and is a great kicker - something the tigers have desperately needed for a long time.

He's always going to be behind Turbo and if he wants fullback money and to play there, personally I'd do what I could to make it happen.

 

[TurnStyle]

Holy crap - how can Laurie not be a priority after watching that game? Brave as amongst a squad who looked like it was all too hard.

Just my opinion 😊

 

[Telltails]

Just my opinion 😊

Ha all we got is opinions on here mate. All good to agree to disagree.

Gus is looking to get into our juniors seeing as though the bulldogs have none.

Nanai can be approached from Nov 1, lets start sounding him out. Would look good behind Api and next to IPap . We’ve already made a play for him once, I think we’ll do so again. Exciting and dangerous player.🔮

hopefully laurie gets re-signed, on his day hes definitely above average just needs that consistency which he seems to have over the last few weeks, plus theres literally no one much better on the market anyway

I saw where he goes back to his old job.

you tell Brooks 650k take or leave
give Hastings 800k
give brown 850k
adam plays elsewhere

Who gave you the cheque book, salary cap dramas already.

with a proper coach like Sheens let's see
move him on in 2024 but not 2023

1year holiday at $1.2 million, don’t think it will happen.

Overall he is having a go. Will stay and get an upgrade me thinks.

We’ll get through this year and then we’ll assess everything. We’ve got to sit down and have a really good look at our roster, which we’re doing at the moment,” Sheens said.

“Other things in the club need to be addressed, so it’s going to be an ongoing thing.”

I think we should be careful about labelling TS as the Messiah, come to free us from oppression.
He is rightly recognised as a good coach, and having handled club and country teams has the necessary cred.
But Madge was also a proper coach and despite his best efforts was not able to achieve much.
TS is 73, hasn’t coached at this level for some time, coming on board with 2 unknown ( coaching wise ) assistants and the hopes of every WT fan.
But there is a long way to go. I for one will be happy with small improvements, 80 min effort, playing to potential, playing for the team, etc.
Go Wests Tigers.
