Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

On paper is not thin.... big name signings.... none of them are sitting perfectly in any grade.....Kit Laulilli runs hard and fast... why Garner???? Cause he scored 2 trys last night? Right place... right time.
I’ve always rated Garner . His hole running is legit . He used to drop a lot of balls cause brooksy used to launch them at him .
 
Yea, but all that is kinda irrelivant.

Forwards seem to max out at 32-33. A winger, sure don't sign a 28 year old winger for 5 years unless they are exceptional.

What's relevant is at 28/27/26 he is likley being dropped. Would sign him IF he could perform like he did 4 years ago.
Not really when he isn't making 1st grade at that age.
 
Rumours going around that Sitili Tupouniua is on the outer at the Roosters and Tigers are one of the clubs interested in him for next season. With Siua Wong, Crichton, Butcher bros, Connor Watson who can fill in at 2nd row it kind of makes sense. Personally not a fan of the signing given his injury troubles but he has good potential a bit like Luciano Leilua
Gun.

This sounds a million times more likely than Sua or Angus.

I'd be ok with giving him a one year deal on 200k, with a second year extension At 350k if he plays 12 matches or more

I would love to see the tigers sign SUA , not sure what money we would need to throw at him , would it be some where between $700,000 and $800,000 , I know it’s a lot of money but the drag queens will be there abouts . So who could we cut to fund this signing , ok fellow forum posters , let’s see who u come up with to free up $800,000
 
Angus Crichton on the other hand I'd happily pay good coin for
While I do agree with that it wouldn’t be smart of us to try and sign him at this stage. Not because he’s not good enough because he is, but we have Ice and Bateman on 600K plus as our starting bsckrowers, and both are contracted for us next year. Unless one of them was moving positions or was moving on after this season, I don’t see the club making an effort to sign another starting back rower. Besides it’s very unlikely he’ll leave the Roosters to play for another NRL team, better chance of him leaving for another sport then him playing for another NRL team.
