Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

To his credit he did tip the Bateman signing … 2 months after he signed. Good chance he gets Moses right , albeit he tipped the resigning weeks ago. On his tips, Nofa leaves last week. Must be a double in the training videos .throw enough darts and one will stick

He said Nofa wouldn't appear for the Tigers this season so yeah things must be ready to really move fast. Few of his darts have even hit the board and the ones that have were already in the board.
 
I'm surprised to see some have AJ Kepaoa as a first-choice centre for us. From what I've seen, he's depth at best. Often drops the ball at crucial times. Hasn't shown any real spark for me.

I think centre is our weakest position at the moment. Until Feledy is ready, or we get Moses and Doueihi partners Naden in the centres, we really only have 2nd tier options with AJ, Toa, etc.

I'm very confident in AJ as one of our centres. He is yet to have that breakout game that people notice, but he has produced little things that make me sit back and think "he has it". Last year he finished the year well, looking dangerous in attack, aggressive in defence and he has a great passing game.

His aggression in defence was there to see again in the trial, and he carried the ball strongly. He has a great awareness to put his outside man in space with soft hands. I think he has everything we need, he just needs time and fine tuning.

I think you will be pleasantly surprised by what AJ will do this year.

I think most are more disappointed with how they played - not who played.....
Penriths second team last night would probably best our 1sts....

It's only a trial, But it's also an issue.....
48 Points on you at any time, In senior level is an issue.

When they cross the stripe (No matter who it is, Or for what reason) They need to be better
- All of them.

And yes, There probably wasn't many of our top 17...
But there was plenty there who are full time Rugby League Players,
Between Squadies and Developments....

Yeah it's an issue, sure.

But we're a few months removed from coming dead last, a result which was gradually coming over a few years. And people somehow expect one game later with our fringe players playing under a new coach we're going to be decent all of a sudden.

Anyhow, I'm going to leave it alone. I've worried about this club long enough to now know there isn't a quick fix and one bad (or good, imagine that!) result is not the end or beginning of the world.

Nah you should keep posting. What do you mean disappearing?

surely if posts are getting deleted you’re being given an explanation?

Totally bizarre from any perspective..a proven SOO player spurned for yet another potential 1st grader.one day.....at a club that rarely converts potential into performance ??
Yep,I know we dindt have the outside backs to optimise JAC,but gotta start somewhere

I expect AJ and Naden to be the centre pairing by year's end with no injuries to them and big Ken and anything but Nofo to be on the wings or it could be forum member of the week and big Ken
