Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Tom Shines]

What a load of nonsense. Firstly you will never find out for sure what a player is on unless the NRL starts to publish salaries.

Secondly - how do you know for sure that the anonymous person is speculating? The anonymous person could in fact be a very close contact of the player.

By your own logic in fact, if I know for sure that Buzz Rothfield is not a family member of the player, but I don't know for sure that the anonymous poster is NOT a family member of the player, therefore the anonymous poster must be more reliable because they are possibly a family member of the player.

Wrong once again..

The anonymous person said he was speculating…

And did you miss the part where I said player agents and clubs leak this info to juornos all the time ?

Not sure they leak it to anonymous guys on the Wests Tigers forum…

Your “logic” is speculation about a guy speculating …

Don’t be spewing that vitriol around here 😉

I wonder if API is in AFBs ear from the manly days aswell and if it could have an impact on helping him come to tigers!!

I bet he isn’t

 

[426Tlgerland]

We should have all players with a connection to AFB in his ear daily , telling him. That under Benji the rise of the tigers is starting k the team that come last 2 years in a row is ready to come out and climb the ladder , you join us we play finals footy , then all we need to do this coming season is start winning , be around the top 8 and he will look at us , being part of the rise of the tigers would be a really good feel , teams wining games makes training no matter how hard more enjoyable , heading for the semi finals players just respond it’s simple and a mind game , if your winning your mind will be 100% on the job , How will it look in 24 if we come out and are 4/4 plus the by game , 5 rounds down and we are on 10 points , we are the talk of town

It's true he's never really had his heart in it with us. He was average last year and let in plenty of tries with lazy defence around the ruck.

AFB would make a big difference to our team.

Ice is either cooked or he's not interested. Neither one of those helps us. Punt him!

AFB is a very good player but not at the expense of Papali'i'. The latter imo has much to contribute to a better culture at our club as well as onfield performances. We have good young player such as Fa'agutu emerging who will benefit from having Papali'i and also Bateman in our team.

It’s letting Ice go one year early for a better player … I don’t get why people would be against the idea

You know whats funny, a year at our club, and we‘d probably want to trade AFB for Papali’i if he were still at the Eels.

Because he’s not a better player. At all, Ice was the victim last year of being in a poorly coached team.

 

[Demps]

If we let Ice go...

Our backrow options are Tumeth or Sukkar to replace him & partner Bateman.

Or Blore (better at prop)

And we still don't have a genuine 13, just props playing the role.

that’s why AFB will get paid twice as much money as Ice …

That’s because Ice’s manager is clearly a moron. We got him at massive unders. Don’t pretend we didn’t.

 

[Conbat07]

I still think we need to sign a centre that can hit hole at pace. Not sure there is anyone on the market

They have got an other another year to replace him …

We’ve needed one of those for the best part of nearly 25 years.

he actually played below the level of his contract last year . Don’t pretend he didn’t

It comes down to what each of us see in players and that is the nature of this forum. I have a very high regard for Papali'i' and believe he is an excellent player for our club. AFB as a player is very good but I cannot recall if he has completed a contract at an NRL club.

When you turn someone’s own line back around on to them, try not to do it by stating a point that person just acknowledged in their previous post.
