Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[weststigerman]

I'm not as worried about middles if we lose Klemmer.

May, Pole, Hunt should be our key front rowers and getting the bulk of the minutes, and none of them should be playing lock. We then have Twal, Kit, Johanssen to fight for that 4th spot. If we find a second rower to replace Klem then we also have the option to have Seyfarth back in the middle.

He was gone at the end of the year anyway, this just opens up another spot to strengthen centre and back row.

We will put you up in the box next to Benji mate.

If he gets in the box I want into , next to the young girl 🤔😳😜

 

[Canadian Club]

I'm thinking spencer leniu

Let’s put it this way, it’s not a Tigers player. If it were a Tigers player, the author would have definitely named and shamed the club just to stick the boot in again.

Good move you have a good eye for talent looks like a 10, practice up on your lines.

 

[JC99]

Makes sense about Klemmer. He wasn't going to be in the top 17 barring injury, and probably gets a multi year deal at Dragons

Have to use his spot for an edge forward or a proper lock forward - just have no idea who's actually out there

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Plenty of discussion early on about Klemmer, nothing new except that he was withdrawn from the trial in case of injury which would affect negotiations.

 

[cktiger]

Don't cut off your nose to spite your face. Makes a bit more sense 😛

Maybe he was right the first time… you did see the username🤣

Use the $’s to extend and sign Galvin. A locked up spine of API, Romey, Galvin and Bula excites me. The bring the extra spot to bring in a solid second row option

I don’t think that’s gonna happen. Could have used the extra dollars after letting Bateman go. There’s more to the Galvin situation than money.

 

[Tom Shines]

How funny if this is referring to Stef?

DISGRUNTLED STAR EYES RETURN​

Which player switched clubs in 2024 and now realises he made a terrible mistake?

The player - one of the biggest-name signings from last season - isn't happy in his new surroundings and would love nothing better than to return to his old club for 2026.

The former club would take him back in a heartbeat … IF they could find room in the salary cap.

Time will tell.

Bateman maybe ?

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Bateman maybe ?

The article implies his old club would take him back if they had the cap. Would Benji want Bateman back?

possibly., they had a good relationship

I think we need 2-4 backrowers , if samual goes down we are stuffed

4 backrowers? 😅

I think the depth at most positions looks grim…

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Frank Molo seems to be a signing the Bulldogs would make. But with Cam Murray going down today, the Rabbits may move quickly to shore up their middle.

I dont think it will take long for the Molo/Klemmer situation to sort itself.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

I think ur jumping the gun , KLEMMER is on 700.00 , so how much are we throwing in , with Molo on 500.00 the drag queens won’t be paying KLEMMERs contract , and we always come out behind

Maybe we only pay Molo $400k?
He may be having trouble getting a run elsewhere at this late stage of every other clubs roster?
All negotiable.

it's streets ahead of what we've had previously. here's our first and second string sides sat next to one another.

1. Bula – Mason
2. Turuva – Staines
3. To'a – Faataape
4. Olam – Naden
5. Skelton – L. Laulili'i
6. Galvin – L. Fainu
7. Luai – Doueihi
8. May – K. Laulili'i
9. Koroisau – Hope
10. Pole – T. Johannssen*
11. Sa. Fainu – Porter
12. Seyfarth – Sukkar
13. Twal – Matamua

14. Da Silva – Falls*
15. Hunt – N. Johannssen*
16. Bird – Rahme*
17. Si. Fainu – Broederlow*

Remaining players: Lobb, Saukuru, Craig, Feledy, Makasini, Tumeth

I think we're probably short a gun backrower and another for depth, a right centre, and a solid, experienced middle forward. we're not far off.

Yes you can try and look busy like Dwyer does

I read on the Dragons forum that Souths were actually sniffing around Klemmer themselves. I'd say it's pretty short odds Molo ends up at Redfern.
