Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[AdelaideTiger]

Couple of left field suggestions, and only have a very small sample size to judge them on but as backup forwards could we look at.
Jack Todd - Bulldogs lock that terrorised us in the 1st trial.
Jacob Sykes - plays for manly lower grades, and played in the all stars game earlier in the year, brought real aggression and impact in that game.

Hmmm .. I wonder what are the chances that we might sign two players from Hull KR ..

Two?
Hargreaves and May?

Will be supporting the Sharks next weekend and every team that plays against Parramatta. Really hoping they run stone motherless and get picked apart by expansion clubs.

My hate for Parra started to subside last year. Thankfully losing the spoonbowl and last week with Moses doing the claw celebration has put them back where they belong in my head.

Hopefully pretty low, looking at the former NRL players in the first team?

In my opinion Spencer Leniu does not appear happy at the chooks. Could his former Panthers bros encourage him to the WT mid season. At Penrith he was awesome. Only 25 years old with 106 games

I've said it previously that Richo & coach Willie Peters have a very good relationship from Rabbits days.

And last week in the media over there Peters said he will be losing Tyrone May back to Australia at the end of the season because he has the ambition of playing with his brothers.

If it's 2 players, not many others are NRL quality & under 30yo except for Mikey Lewis, Elliot Minchella & Jai Whitbread. And not sure whether Michella & Whitbread are that good.

You disagreeing, There's a shock.
He's well down on last year, and I'm not on my own...
I've heard it mentioned in the media Plenty.

Luai is the best Tigers half he's played with, He should have started playing better out of the gates
- if anything.

Sam Fainu is not having much of an attacking season - due to new combinations and a struggling attack overall

He has been an absolute monster in defence. He is hitting hard, forcing errors, leading the line speed and doing plenty of yardage work recently too

Sure he's not scoring many tries. But I'd argue what he's doing this year for us is even more important. The attack will come - his commitment in defence can't be taught.

Fogarty rejects Raiders extension and set to sign 3 year $2.1m deal with Manly from 2026

I hope Api stays. This culture we are building is less than a season old. We need him for the next 2-3 years to finish the job and bring the next crop through with the rest of the Penrith crew.

So do I. The culture change started with Api. He is one of the spiritual leaders of the club.

AJ hasn't been named anywhere for Penrith...

 

[BunganHead Tiger]

I heard he will do anything for a few $$$

One of your best JRDee.

Brandon Smith tipping Kotoni Staggs will be squeezed out at Broncs on the bye round. Would be a good pick up.

 

[TYGA]

FWIW I have seen multiple panthers KOE cup games this year relative plays for them. AJ has been outstanding he’s above KOE standard by far this year. Close to the best player in that comp.

Wouldn't be too concerned just yet...Still time for a 'Back-Flip'!
