Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Tom Shines]

Kit a possibility, but I have doubt over his finess levels and it effecting the intensity he plays with.
Olam’s body language and even his tone in recent interviews tells me he’s not too keen to push on moving forward.
Our best outcome with him would be a medical retirement.
Not sure if their is someone who tackles like a machine and can play 9 or 13 in the UK Super League ?

Olam is signed another two years..he isn’t going any where… surely Benji and Richo understood his contract length when they acquired him… I understand there is a surgery option that can be done

We desperately needs someone who defends like an animal, can play as a 13 or 9 and give Api a desperately needed break each game.

Ray Stone…
Cameron McInness would be better - but Stoney more a possibilty

He just te-signed with the Dolphins recently.
He does defend like an animal, but I’ve seen him play dummy half and you might as well have Klemmer as a dummy half.
A Cameron McInnes type of player is something we desperately need.

We’re missing Twal in defence.

 

[Vicious]

We’re missing Twal in defence.

Twal is similar, but a much better player than Klemmer these days.
Sione Fainu is developing well, we need to re-sign him urgently also.

 

[TonyTiger]

We need to lock up Pole long term aswell.

His footwork is great, starting to bamboozle defenders

Olam’s bad reads in defence are killing us

Olam’s bad reads in defence are killing us

Defensively I agree however, he’s obviously carrying injury but it’s also the people around him also.

This game Sam Fainu who is a gun prospect was beaten for two tries. Over chased on Katoa and inside defender Uto didn’t bother covering. Second half got caught on the ground and then run over by the Storm hooker. The winger also is a poor defender on Olams side.

Finau forwards give me a woody,stuff Stephano ,if he stays,happy dayshate 2 b negitive but he does owe use 4 giving him his 1st over priced contact,we do have the makings of a good young side,when that comes together,if it happens.we dont fade away in big time blocks like we used 2,

 

[weststigerman]

I’ve said it before but we need to find a big strong yardage winger Maumalo style (when he was fit). Laulilli and Turuva are too short to play together in the same team and Staines gets smashed in yardage.

Makasini could be that in the future but we need someone ready next year.

Lov young Sam but he’s got defence issues too. But I reckon he’s gunna get better at it.
His A game is natural animal, he keeps charging those legs through carrying defenders. A bit more upper body strength and confidence he’ll be giving out some Tapou type palm offs with an Arty offload.
Sorry I got a little excited. What about Olam’s palm. ✋

 

[Tucker]

Sorry I don't know who that is

He is a prick out of a shit band I don’t like.

 

[Shanotiger]

Benji needs to give Pole an extension and upgrade on his contract in my opinion he is a much better prospect than Stef. Stef is a lazy sod. His stats are crap. I say good luck to his next club (Parra) def going there for a premiership lmao 🤣.

 

[426Tlgerland]

Could it be Stef has no faith in his coach , Dragons , Raiders , Dogs , Roosters , all had a look , if I was Stef with all these teams dropping out I would be all over the deal we have offered but he isn’t , it looks like to me he will go to any club for similar coin just to get out of tiger town , could this be possible , he just doesn’t want to be coached by Benji , if he goes to Parra , that would absolutely prove this , Parra are shit and getting worse , no coach , and the next coach if a first timer will be exactly like Benji , right up against it with plenty tuff times ahead , Parra no matter what will not be finals bound next season , they already have a gun halves , our gun is on his way , so is a solid Turuva , Pole stepping up , Sam stepping up, Galvin stepping up , Latu ready to start showing his worth , couple young guys and some new Recruites , Tigers will be a much better option going forward

I'm more and more thinking the ute is like my old LPG Ford Falcon in terms of performance. Could go if you flog it but happier to cruise along. I'd like to see the offer lowered with the way he often plays. Put a ratchet clause in.

He’s a gun but like most of our good players young and learning. Great prospect in 12 months has origin potential.
