Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Eternal Tiger]

I'll say this again. Who would want Lee H. to represent them? He has foot-in-mouth disease.

I was thinking of slipping on a Thick Shake next week, he can sit next to me in the back of the Ambulance.

so why are we the only team that has to let players go mid season to retain junior talent?

I don't know but I would have to think there is a very good reason for it and I'm happy to wait.

Joe O comes off the bench most games and we have quite a few players that can cover him, so I think it's more about future years then this year but when an opportunity pops up you need to take it. Lets say Joe's form, drops or he gets injured there is no way another team would take his 600k contract off us.

Works good for him as he will get more mins at Eels.

Parra and Sharks did it the same day

Tell me..have you ever been disappointed before ?

I used to wait for Santa Claus every year..

Depends who replaces him on the field .which I'd say will be seyfarth but I don't think we need both seyfarth and twal in the same 17

I am NO fan of Seyfarth. Every time I have seen him in the top 17 he has underwhelmed me. Again IMO he is a genuine NSW Cup player.

maybe because we have a fair few of them that are all coming on at once

We’re coming equal last and just weakened our squad with (seemingly) no appropriate replacement. The lunatics are running the asylum at WT.

most of your comments from the last few pages belong in the BOO THREAD ,have some bloody faith in the process

 

[GCfan]

That’s because he’s a solicitor.😂

You know they’re lying when their mouths moving

 

[GCfan]

Noticed that. Footy IQ you don’t see too often at this club.

Guess what BAGN, Pascoe agreed to sign him to the club….😜

 

[Merlot]

The absolute flog running the joint has had eight years. His process is shithouse.

is that flog you referred 2 a present/past player ,coach,admin?

 

[hank37w]

Schuster officially rejects any notion of him coming to WT….Fultons first fail

No, letting Joe go was the first, Schuster was number 2.

Not off to a good start, get a wriggle on mate.

Yes I have and 12-18 months ago I was questioning a lot of the clubs' decisions.

I know they are not going to be perfect but very happy with the current signings and process we are going through.

I'm not saying I'm right but I just feel we are doing better than a lot of people think.

It's too soon to write off a guy fresh to the club. He's thrown a couple of beautiful short balls to put his outside man through gaps but his defence is ordinaryand he can disappear in games.
But lets give the kid until the end of the season to feel like he belongs before making a judgement on him.
(not that I'm saying you have.)

Fair comments TP, I was quite intrigued when we bought him, as someone must have seen something, or he had some type of wrap on him.
Happy to give him the year, just wondered what his first few outings were like.

 

[hank37w]

Poor old Joe…busted his arse last year when very few even lifted a finger and his reward was a contract extension. An extension that was widely celebrated as deserved by the fan base and media. Less than 6 months later, this reward is deemed too expensive and we have traded him to our current day enemy, on an early release program.

That same day, another high profile prospective recruit rejects coming here. This is not coincidence. We do not look after our own. We are run by incompetent buffoons. Thanks management, for fcking up morale when we have finally got our act together on the field.
Raiders by 20.

Sorry, but I can't help myself and I just have to say it, "Lee is just a dead shit."

 

[tigertragic]

Left field thought , if Tyson F comes to the tigers, ice may go to the middle rotation as I think he has previously suggested that is his preferred position

 

[hank37w]

I think a lot ot of you struggle with comprehension. Lee never said Joffa wouldn't be going anywhere, just that he had not been given a release last week, and still had not been given a release (as of 9am). What he said was true...

But still we should never be releasing an important player for our squad until we have the replacement lined up. Whomever we're planning to sign has to have agreed to terms first and then you do the official stuff and make announcements. If we released Joffa only to then go shopping it would be a calamitous example of unprofessionalism. You don't weaken your squad and strengthen your opponents, you release when it is in our best interests to do so.

Everything Lee says is true, truly crap.

I think the young pole best coming off the bench too. Interesting to see who he is replaced with. Surely knights don't release Tyson f this season. Unless have extreme CSP pressures

You're correct..I thought we wild be dead last by ourselves,but share that position...
We've over achieved!

Mate, he's so dumb he'd probably get a concussion from chasing a parked ambulance.
