Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Thanks Madge.

Madge and Musgrove's love affair I think started when they were both at Souths and the big prop had a few good charging hit ups.
Since then, injuries and suspensions and playing in second gear, he hasn't reproduced anything near that Souths form. Time to go I think.

So Klemmer was seen touring the COE which suggests he is close to signing but where has the Spencer Lenui talk come from? Just that he's off contract and looking to make bank? I hope he ends up here but would like to separate the likelys from the pure guesses...

Didn’t Ciraldo get the guided tour??

I would say that Madge saw a lot of potential when Musgrove was at souffs unfortunately like many others with potential it did not get to what is needed to be a consistent FG player

Yeah - I remember what I said....
I'm not a mathematician, But I don't see how losing / Moving a heap of forwards that were dominated last year is countered by moving on one of the last remaining few that we have.

If we sign some quality for 2023, Then go sell whoever.....
We can't just keep selling and buying nothing or no ones' though....

Tumeth is top 30 for next
- How on gods green earth is he going to be more handy to us next year than the likes of Musgrove?
Start him for 17/25 games next year - See how he fairs...
He'll get swallowed.

I bet he is more effective in defence

We need aggressive & hard running forwards yet people want to release Musgrove & keep Seyfarth & Twal unbelievable.

I don’t think anyone wants to keep Seyfarth.

Could well be....

He'll get plenty of practice -
when we're constantly playing 20m out from our goal line the whole game
because no one runs with aggression, breaks a tackle, finds their front, and dints the defence
None of them would bruise a grape.

DRAGONS CIRCLING TIGERS PROP

The Dragons are reportedly interested in securing Tigers prop Zane Musgrove for the 2023 season.

Despite the fact that Musgrove isn’t off contract until the end of 2024, the Tigers could potentially release him if they strike a deal with St George.

The Dragons are currently lacking big bodies up front, losing Daniel Alvaro mid-year to Toulouse along with Tariq Sims (Melbourne) and Josh McGuire (Warrington) at the end of 2022.

The Red V have only locked in Tigers hooker Jacob Liddle for 2023, it looks like Musgrove will be next on their list.

It was said the Dragon's are the main competitors for Lenui services so maybe the Tigers got there man if Zane is off to the Dragon's

 

[BAGNF05]

Some Neville on Facebook is saying dragons have singed Musgrove. I for one hope that the Neville is correct.

Enjoy his minimal impact followed by a soft dropped ball or two and blank emotionless reaction.

West tigers would like to welcome nsw/Australia representative back to the club Aron woods

Haha. Sounds very Wests Tigers including the incorrect spelling of our former captains name.

1922 - what a year we start with a squad and lose
Mikhalae
Leilua
Madden
Liddle
Garner
Tuilagi
Musgrove
Tamou (ret)
Roberts
NuBrown
Sure I've missed some
Then throw in Hastings missed half a year with suspension and injuries
And as yet we are yet to resign beyond 2023 Jacko and Douehi
Total new signings in 2022 = Naden given Api and IPaps were signed in 2021
Starting to wonder if our 3 Musketeers are themselves wondering
What the hell have I got myself into ?
I'm really hoping Nov shows something positive because it just feels like we are going nowhere

They wonder until payday, then they just bury their head back in the sand.

Musgrove runs hard when the cops are chasing him. Yet to see it on a footy field.

Or they got both of them..

Didn’t Ciraldo get the guided tour??

Ciraldo was only intent on seeing our salary cap and our juniors position….he was never interested in signing with us

I used to stick up for him when he was getting bagged on the forum.
I'm not sticking up for any of them now until they start earning their pay.

Clearly he’s not a moron and has some long term coaching goals beyond 2.5 years.

He’s one of the most disappointing ones for me. Has the frame, got the big deal that he had not earned and just gives a half arsed effort.
