Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I know there were rumours - but nice to hear from Richo that both Hetherington and Horsburgh had both actually agreed to terms with us.

For a wooden spoon club to make 8 offers and have them all agree to terms is pretty damn good. C'mon journos, write this story.

You wont see it Moh , cause it is BS that sells papers, not the truth you spoke.,

Be interesting who is our starting goal kicker. API is not terrible, but we need a top notch 80% plus kicker if we are going to give finals footy a shake

Definitely something that needs addressing

TDS kicked 5/7 in the last NSW Cup game that he played . Maybe something he develops 🤷‍♂️

Seyfarth is a great depth player. If we are considering him as part of our 17 next year we haven't recruited well enough.

I've been warned already so will bite my tongue

Madge sticking the knife in to get payback is what it is. He's known through league circles for being thin skinned and vindictive

Your hatred for Madge invariably shines through.He is not the world's greatest coach but he is a lot better than you make him out to be and does get results,just not with us.

Anyone able to update the Roster Breakdown Thread? I posted in it earlier today wanting to know the names & numbers for 2026 & beyond. Obviously a lot has happened in recent times. Would like to see what we have locked in now going forward.

Did you forget he played for Australia.

No he didn't, PM13 is not Australia.

Australian Prime Minister's XIII?

What is it bud?

That was like a poor man's City vs country game just before it died off

Seems like they love him at the club.
He's got better each year and hopefully continues to get better.

Can make some mistakes but he's a fantastic player who can do a job for us.

He's definitely an enigma. I hope he becomes a solid first grader, but there has been plenty the club has loved before and you could never put a finger on why.

If he's picked in the 17 in 2026, he's earned it and I'll back him.

It's the Australian prime minister's 13, it is not a test it doesn't count as an Australian Cap.

Were not going to do better in recruitment.

Yes we need a true Second Rower, and so we recruit 2x Props.

But hey we have May, who honestly Stat's wise Wipes our entire front row. Hunt is a battering ram, but unsure how he will go here.

Like, How the WT recruit who they do to this place... I have no idea. I mean we got Luai, Turuva who is a up n coming winger. We got May when people were chasing him hard.

Our ability to recruit decent players is pretty damn good. I just wish the rest of our club was as good as our recruitment.

Ah ok. Still a good achievement it was well earned.

Apologies, that should have read 2026

My boy not going anywhere haha:

"While Wests Tigers utility Adam Doueihi also underwent a medical assessment with the Dragons, it appears Ilias will join the club after he went through a second examination."

At least he/we tried. Ilias or him is a bit hmmm

 

[weststigerman]

Atiitude , effort, footy IQ - to name a few why he’s better than Toa … oh yeah and he’s a winner

Time will tell. Staines was a grand final winner in the exact same spot as Turuva. He’s awful in the centres though.

Agreed. He fixed up a lot of his short comings this year and he was one of the very few forwards that gave me confidence when he was on.

Not sure he’s a starter but he should be in the top 17 every week.

Gawd, 🙄, we’ll never get rid of Doobie if he has to do medicals every time. We need a Flemington Car Market for footy players you can look and start her up but no medicals.

This is a perfect time to get a Major sponsor.
We seem to be in great shape and on the up for a Sponsor to join.
Richo said we are in the best shape ever for sponsors so I'm sure Richo will deliver us one as well.

This guy is heading for a statue the way his going.
