I know we suck...Better than Dias and Simpkins
Prefer we'd aim a little higher though.

I know we suck...Better than Dias and Simpkins
I think at present they are looking at anyone who might be of NRL standard or is deemed to have potential and have come up with a big duck eggGiven we are starting a new era (coaching, facilities, culture etc), I'd be identifying experienced players looking for a fresh start for whatever reason (i.e. current club has issues, player returning from injury, player with point to prove).
These players must exude professionalism in all aspects (training, game prep, values etc). Sheens did it before with the likes of Scott Sattler, Mick Buettner, Paul Whatuira, Shane Elford, Brett Hodgson, Scott Prince, Pat Richards.
But it's a package deal 😜Remember the last aging injury prone props we signed and how that worked out for us ?
Packer and Matulino?
No thanks to Fifita.
Agree, Hard pass on fifita.Remember the last aging injury prone props we signed and how that worked out for us ?

No thanks to Fifita.
100%But it's a package deal 😜
Can't believe I'm saying it but I wouldn't mind Lodge.
Lodge/Klem is who we should be aiming for not a washed up fifita.
Totally agree, we actually need him. Roosters might low ball him if we pay better $$ might be a chance
Fifita is rinsed...Lodge/Klem is who we should be aiming for not a washed up fifita.
Every pack needs some mongrel.Yeah... I'd have him.
People have their opinions on him, But he's the Forward Leader we need
Roosters signing him next year for 300k Says Weidler....
We got money.Should try for one of Lodge or Klemmer.
I that fails perhaps Tapau who is off contract.
He is 71 AND been out of the NRL for a decade AND with no success in the Super League in that time. Bennett may be 72 but has never stopped coaching in the NRL and continued to be successful in that time. There is a clear difference between the two.What is this thing lots of you members have about Tim Sheens Age, He is 71, Wayne Bennett is 72, does this make them stupid, after all they dont have to play the game, they only need to know how its played, and these guys know the ins and outs of the game as they both played it in there younger days, if they gave you the job how do you think you would handle it,
And how old are you.
I know we suck...
Prefer we'd aim a little higher though.
BS opinions matter, particularly if that one BS opinion is widespread. It influences further opinion and gives prospective recruits doubts about whether they want to be a part of the club.It's just media dribble. Who here is on the coaching staff or one of the players ?
Facts matter. BS opinions are BS.
Plus it's a complete new team next year.
I hope we strongly consider Fifita. Brings ...
We'll see..Noone good wants to come here
Negatives include..I hope we strongly consider Fifita. Brings ...
1. Wests Tigers DNA
2. Impact of the bench for 20-25 mins/game (especially since we have long minute props like Offa, Pole, Twal & hopefully Stefano eventually long minute)
3. Experience & good D (98% tackle efficiency this season)
4. Very good off loader which we need & likely suit Sheens style
5. Someone to lead the young guys - has been through adversity so inspiring teammate.
6. Low cost for 1 year contract
But thought he had a falling out with Sheens when he left Club???
Yeh he's got kneels like sterlo.Negatives include..
1. Body isn't up to it... weak legs. Cooked knees.
2. Has an axe to grind with the club and has publicly trashed us before.
3. Not good for culture. Very self orientated and appears toxic.
4. Will probably get be injured most of the time.
5. Doesn't have any longevity left in the game.
I grew up knowing the family. I don't believe '3' to be at all true. Can't really disagree with the other points but.Negatives include..
