Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

It sounds like with Bronco, Knight, Storm and Shark salary cap squeezes there could be a few players shake from tree 🌲 just need the right 2 forwards

Seems like there will be plenty of movement. There has been a fair bit of movement already tbh.

It's funny how Roosters are never in this kind of list..
On low contracts according to NRL (wink wink) and never close to cap yet field like 15 rep players.

Anyway our time is coming .... Happy days ahead

RCG would have to be in for the crocodile roll. I doubt he'd want more punishment after coming from parra.

I have zero concerns with Romey. He is one of them guys who gets betting the more pressure. I know we gave him a truckload of money to come but the challenge of making us better and it being his team will drive this bloke even more.

Putting him in good position, taking pressure off him, I am very sceptical of. He's good, but is he that great?

Nothing wrong with versatility, but we need that versatility in the backrow right now. And we still need a prop. We lack depth and having Sam Fainu and Seyfarth with Porter and Sukkar as depth simply isn't going to be good enough. Adding Bird helps, but I can see Benji will move him around to plug gaps rather than locking down a position.

This guy would be a good addition, but I will always say, the price is what determines whether or not a player should come regardless of talent. If we can get him on 300k to 350k and release Bateman, that would be good business by the club and leave us money for a prop.

Whilst I like Sione as a player , he had concussion issues at the Knights which wouldn’t have gone away

The rumour I heard was RCG to Penrith To'o to the Tigers

You hear a lot of rumours,… do many turn out to be true?

 

[JB9918]

Any updates on Kobe Hetherington or Montoya?

Well duh. Just look at the success rate of this thread.

We're not anyones first choice.

Luai knocked back a few to sign

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

But he's not a big drinker. Signing with us. It did help knocking back a few.

Pretty much every player in the NRL gets linked to the club by someone here …so you could say that every new signing is predicted by someone ..

I will be very surprised if To’o is in the Wests Tigers side come Round 1 2025 though ..regardless of all those rumours out there

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Name some predictions that came to fruition from this thread?

I’d say buckleys and none. He put it to bed.

Who predicted it?

 

[GNR4LIFE]

You’d have to be high on crack to give up To’o to bring in RCG. You nuts?

 

[Tom Shines]

Yeah ..plus they have already signed 2 wingers and have other needs to fill for 2025

It wouldn’t totally shock me if he came here in 2026 to be with his best buddy though

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Like Moses and Brooks are best buddies?

 

[Tom Shines]

Who predicted it?

A number of people actually … i saw at least 1 put forward Skelton as well,,,
