Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[magpies forever]

IP and Api weren't signed until Sheens was back involved at the club though too don't forget. Madge did not get any decent signings prior in 4 years

Agree. I recall the forum as hopeful he could tap into the NZ squad and fringe NZ players for WT. He got bupkiss from them- remember all the trying for DWZ?

All this talk about Latu magically taking his spot without a hiccough without ever proving himself consistently in first grade is just living in hope.
Plenty of people are saying we shouldn’t offer Galvin a good contract because he’s only played around 20 games. Yet they’re quite happy to give his spot to a bloke who has hardly been on the first grade field at all… and, so far, has been injury prone.

Would say the glimpses we saw in the 2nd half of the manly game should be enough to show that his ability is not an mirage. He's also played hooker for Tonga, and physically stood up. He's not a great white hope.
That's not to say that I think we can't keep both him and Galvin, and all the wrist sliting over Galvin leaving is very premature.
I think Latu can play 13 long term and Galvin can keep the 6.

That’s obviously why Ice tried to backflip and said things had changed as he had signed to be coached by Maguire

If the Wests Tigers do go to a Vegas …. What’s the chances that it’s a home game for them ?

Them, or us?

@finnzo
if we are going to Vegas it would help us Recruit for next year

That thought crossed my mind last night, but I really dont think it would come into calculations for a potential new recruit, its a minor factor and would be fairly shallow on the players part

Maybe someone NFL players, maybe NBA, maybe Ice hockey. Heck, even might recruit new cheergirls from Dallas Cowboys!!!! Or you talking immigration?

Seems like a number of players want to flee Flanagan. Molo the latest.

The authoritative coach is a dying breed.
He’ll probably end up playing for Wayne.

So Broncos no chance.

It’ll be interesting to watch. From afar I reckon Madge may have mellowed a touch.

Yep
I placed a bet for this season
Melbourne minor prem
Tigers make 8
Dragons run last
$ 10 = $ 800 return
Feel pretty good about this one , and best part it lasts for weeks this bet 😁

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

800 depending on inflation, AI, WHO since USA left, Brics, Ukraine, Taiwan and Greenland, real estate and petrol prices, Los Angeles next move - fires still alive. By then if lucky they will pay you in bitcoin. Hope you win. Good investment. For only 10 bux

Low output high return multi to entertain through the season best of luck.

 

[tigermate]

His right hand?

And you could also say that if Benji was at the Roosters or Melbourne with their squads/ resources/ culture that he would likely have got a better result as a coach than a wooden spoon. We will never know either way.

Lol

People saying the coach makes NO difference and it’s ONLY the team

Means that theoretically - you could get any coach off the street and put him in charge of a team and he would do the SAME as the great coaches

It’s laughable

Common Sense is not yet dead. Contrary to the Morgan Gallup Polls. Whoever he was in the fabric of truth and impartiality.

great idea.
Slightly varied:
Storm minor premiers
Tigers make the 8
Drag queens bottom 4
Rorters miss the 8 (the best part)
$15 for $701 return.

Bad investment. When was the last year (happy tear for us) the Rorters did not make the top 8? Do we have statistics on this? Odds etc.... just thinking about you. But in heart - hope you win!!!
