Coming to Tigers Stonestreet could become Rockyroad.

Ken's a good player, but his last game for the Magpies was in 1972 and he passed away in 2015.Stonestreet is one we should be heavily targeting.
He’s the best winger not playing regular NRL, has the size, height and speed required, has the upside to become a rep standard player and his development is only being stalled the longer he remains at the Sharks.
We wish it were that simple. Not realistic.We may be just clearing some Top 30 to bring forward some of our youngsters. e.g. Bring in Kit, Faagutu or Saukuru early and modify deal. All 3 are in the squad next year anyway.
Probably teach him to run better lines, be involved in a great defensive structure, and in a winning club environment. Watch him kick up a gear, in time.Wonder what Cleary sees that we don’t ? Not buying him for fun !
This year is a write-off, OK.Maybe move them on when we can and have the club positioned to pick up players identified for recruitment or those from the lower grades identified as a priority upgrade. I am not too concerned about results this year as we all know it was going to be tough.
The 10th best prop in a better team, that is definitely a possibility.If he plays in a better team could be in top 10
Then Benji has to go OR bring someone in to help him.....guide him... teach him....This year is a write-off, OK.
We must now look at the big picture. Make space for the incoming.
Like it or not, we have to let Richo steer us out of this shit hole.
He has the track record of doing so; and all things seem to be pointing in that direction.
Hold the line, have faith, and about 10 hail Mary's should get us there?
Hope the medical includes a thorough inspection of his hands to make sure that they are not actually feet.Telegraph reporting that Asu Kepaoa is about to depart mid season for Penrith Panthers, joining several other ex Tigers there:
Penrith are set to capitalise on the upheaval at the Wests Tigers and secure extra insurance for the potential departure of Taylan May by signing utility Asu Kepaoa with immediate effect.
**This masthead** understands that Kepaoa will undergo a medical with the Panthers and sign for the remainder of this season as well as next year with the defending premiers after being granted permission by the Tigers to explore the open market.
Kepaoa has made 42 appearances for the Tigers since making his debut four years ago, although only two of those games have been this year.
He played against St George Illawarra in round six off the interchange bench and then against the Dolphins in round 11 from the back row.
He has now become the latest departure as the Tigers undertake a cleanup of their roster in preparation for next season, when they hope to add to the big-name signings of Jarome Luai and Sunia Turuva.
Exactly, but his ego is higher.I doubt it.
He's not in the top 10 props in the game currently, barely even top 20.
Do you really think he's going to be in the top 3 highest paid?
We overpay players out of desperation. Other clubs do not, and that's how they manage their caps better than we do.
He's not AFB, Haas, JFH or even remotely in their league as million dollar props.
They're solid players surrounded by speedsters and superstars, that make their jobs so much easier. When put alongside slow, dumb morons they too are slow dumb morons.Talau was one of our worst players. How is he the leading try scorer?
Pauga is another who was awful but the Roosters love him.
Maybe it’s not the players? I don’t know what it is.
Ding ding ding, must be our basket case of a club. Not sure Wayne Bennett or Bellamy could fix this. Its going to be atleast another 2-3 years at bestTalau was one of our worst players. How is he the leading try scorer?

They are at the end of a successful forward and backline. Just have to catch and dive.Talau was one of our worst players. How is he the leading try scorer?

So what do we expect from Turuva when he gets here?They are at the end of a successful forward and backline. Just have to catch and dive.
They didn't have that here. Not scoring by individual skills.
Giving up is not ok.We may be just clearing some Top 30 to bring forward some of our youngsters. e.g. Bring in Kit, Faagutu or Saukuru early and modify deal. All 3 are in the squad next year anyway.
We struggle with players coming here to take it easy before they retire, he's a good player but his attitude at the Tigers could be disasterousSolves a few problems:
Can play 13
Swap with Api
Api may retire after next season
Da Silva can develop at 14
Smith to 13 and Da Silva to 9 mid game
Lots to like
