Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Panthers are not a club to be walked over IMO. They will want something/someone in return or will simply deny To’o any chance of leaving

I understand this sentiment, but the Fisher-Harris example is front of mind.

They had no problem letting him walk, out of nowhere, with nothing in return from the Warriors.

Also odd that they're so openly adament that To'o won't be going anywhere, yet it was a completely different spin when it came to JFH.

Tbh 9th would be a great season for us. People need to understand a team like the bulldogs going from the bottom 4 to 6th is basically an anomaly, well maybe not considering a team has done it every season for a while 😂 we just need to be the dragons of next season and that’s a good way forward

They also won't do it again next year.

To'o is worth 10 Tanielas?
Put down the bong bud (It's only early)
I wouldn't swap a Fit Tuiaki for 2 Brian To'os'
But you do you....

I have watched him, and he's limited....
As many times as i've said
- None of you clowns have come back to me telling me how good in the air he is, or how fast he is...

I'll settle it with,
I like Wingers who can do more than 1 thing - You don't
Simples.
You pray as you wish
- I pray, He doesn't end up here so we have to pay massive money to witness first hand
how limited he really is outside an Elite team.

Really?

😂😂😂

I suppose we couldn't say no to To'o if available but would prefer speed and height.

 

[Kelce68]

More miles in him than 3 of this years coaches combined.

Miles?

Like NRL first grade coaching experience miles?

Morris has over 50 NRL games coaching experience. How many does Hodgo have?

 

[vlad]

Well the Wallabies defence is the worst it's ever been, he's defensive coach.

Not currently but was when Eddie Jones was coach

We've signed Luai, Turuva, Skelton and Hunt (just last week).

Why so concerned?

Because they said they had targets once stepho pulled the pin , big red then pulled the pin and now nothing
Mate, have you watched him for the last 5 years and playing SOO?! He is worth 10x any winger we have trotted out since the club began.

The To'o stuff reminds me of every finals series where the rumour is we have signed players "who are currently playing in the finals" and would be announced once the finals finished.

You know what happened after the finals finished? Nothing.

Well, after the finals were finished, technically there was nobody left "currently playing in finals".

That is usually what happens yes. Had some drinks at lunch time?

Which song are these lyrics from? I'm wracking my brain and can't figure it out....

2 cans of Fanta, why do you ask?

Bird will play second row. Bateman won't ever play for the club again

Not sure what this means but just read this…
Meanwhile, John Bateman will return to the Tigers ahead of next season, with the England international amongst a five-player departure list which Warrington Wolves announced on Wednesday evening.

Not sure he has too many options open to him. He may well be coming back.

Well you made a fairly obvious statement, that's all.

I think that means he's on too much coin and Warrington don't want him back either. Nofa all over again.

I'm not sure why you mentioned To'o. I never mentioned him.

Looks to me the timeline of signings has been fairly consistent. It seems now we have a full roster and need to move a few on before we can sign more.

Not sure what else the club can do.

 

[ChilledChaos]

I’ve had confirmation from a family source that To’o is a Tiger in 2025! Kobe Hetherington is also locked in🔥🤝

 

[The Chad]

With so much cap room, has there been a better time than now to shift players by paying out a portion of their contract to play elsewhere? Maybe instead of big money signings, it's moderate signings with us shifting higher priced reserves away from the club next year?

Great sense of humor lol
