Renamed the Panther Droppings.

 

[Scare]

Xavier Willison - norths Qld 2nd row

Brendon Piakura - north’s Qld 2nd row

Lazarus vaalepu - falcons Qld cup prop

Tesi nui -brisbane broncos

Preston Riki - penrith panthers 2nd row

Xavier va’a - Sydney roosters prop

Jordan Hill - Mackay cutters wing

Royce hunt - Cronulla sharks

I put this up a little while ago. Another poster commented on moneyball - which I think is right, we have to stop this.

We have no size, speed, flair, or flat out intimidation. What do sides fear from us? Nothing. We are a constant training run for other teams to try out their attack moves, blood their young ones, or someone to run into form against.

WM wouldn’t know a talented footballers bootlace.

I have degrees in marketing, Human Resources, and run a service company with 40 staff. My board would sack me if I ran my little service business like the wt are being run

How can Canterbury keep recruiting how they are? Smoke, mirrors and a damn good sales pitch. Our reputation amongst player managers must be graded at an “E”.

To change that, you must show willingness to change, and an aggressive positive mindset.

Souths with Roy Asotasi, Richmond tigers 10 years ago… perfect examples.

PleAse for the love of god never let tesi nui anywhere near our squad

When would these players be available for signing? i.e. When do their present contracts finish?

All are available - hunt and Riki would be my pick. Xavier Va’a will be a problem when he gets going. Currently at roosters, contracted until end of 2023. What’s a contract in the nrl?
Throw a three year deal at the kid.
Kid can fight too let me tell you! As I have told of management - offer the kid three years, chip in towards his education and let him box in the off season. He has a younger bro as well who at 16 is something to be seen. Boxes as well. Terrific family, mum I believe is doctor
Both boys are well educated also. Xavier is studying psychology .

I can see your point. Kid has got enormous talent, just sometimes his brain is quicker than his legs and hands. As a centre I reckon he would do well, versatility into fullback as well.

Funnily enough, a mate of mine reckons as a depth signing tyrell Sloan worth a chat ? Lock him a gym for six months , feed him… he’s a rough one, could polish well.

Juicy Xerri - train and trial contract . We have done worse. Especially if he clicks…. Throws away the pins

Potentially an announcement coming today that a player is coming to Sydney. It was a bit vague but a player coming to a Sydney club will tell his teammates after the game today. Not sure which game they were talking about. Not sure which radio station it was sorry, it was on in the chipper and I only caught the end of the story when I heard the Tigers as the possible place they were ending up.

do the cows play today you melon

 

[king_sirro]

We don't the Xerri's anywhere near the Tigers.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

not talking about who plays today, don't think that part is correct I think we may well be looking at Nannai for 2024

 

[coivtny]

We don't the Xerri's anywhere near the Tigers.

I'm usually against this type of comment about WT signing players (e.g Lodge) with poor reputations but, in this case, I agree. The Xerri family seem like total excrement that we shouldn't allow anywhere near our club.

Like everyone else would love us to put an offer in for Nanai - surely it also wouldn't be as high as we'd have to offer someone like Angus Crichton. Any of the Raiders forwards be great for us too.
As well as a centre, would like as to get another prop and second rower too. Our forward pack is one of the worst (if not, the worst) in the comp.

 

[tony soprano]

I'm glad that they are having a really good look at the roster. Goes without saying really.

Other things is a very broad term

I think it’s likely Sullivan to Dogs.

“The Dragons approved an extension offer for Ben Hunt at a board meeting, which could result in the club losing youngster Jayden Sullivan to the Bulldogs.”

Tactical decision to wipe his hands of the results and outcome of '22.

Let Noddy fall on the sword.

This has to be the only justification to why they picked Noddy. Don't think it's any coincidence that our best performance of the year happened under Ben Gardiner...

Dean Hawkins has an outstanding kicking game for a 4 game rookie. I would be getting him across quickly of Madden leaves. Perfect back up half and may just be a genuine first grader of the future. His passing game looks better the Ilias as well.

We should be having another go at signing Kade Dykes. Looks good!

that is a good backline
centre worked for Burton at origin douhie can still put the big bombs up from centre when needed

We still need Speed badly

its good you not asking for too much Lauren 😂

The next bit of news I want to hear is Hastings has extended
That is as good as signing a top line external player. Finger crossed
