Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Api's comments after resigning this has been held back for a rainy day imo, dunno if that means the clauses are gone but Api urging him to remove them seemed odd at the time if it was much to do about nothing.

I would say the clauses are still in there, its not as simple as just removing them, I would guess a new contract would need to be drawn up and perhaps it may have some new terms that were negotiated as part of the removal of the clauses...he is saying he wants to be a Tiger for life....maybe an additional year or two, or more robust performance incentives as the challenge is greater than he may have originally anticipated etc...

Balmain Boy at it again. You got NFI son! Stop stealing our oxygen. If you watched the game the edge forwards held them self well against Penrith the first half. You’re talking about a 4 time NRL grand final team who could not bust our line for 30min. Had Latu not shot out, no way they would have scored. I would have been embarrassed if I was a Penrith player and could not get through a rookie 21 year old edge forward for that long.

But since you hate Sukkar, Twal and Doueihi, it’s quite obvious where your minds at. BUT like the coward you are, you will never run it Str8.

Please change your name to keyboard warrior!

I certainly wish that Penrith could not bust our line for 30 minutes in the first half that you refer to, as going into half-time 6-2 would have been a lot better than the 18-2 that it was.

As for our edge forwards, they did very little to help our go forward, which meant us basically always kicking from well inside our own half. The team needed a lot more metres from them.

I reckon he would be. Fermor would bring a lot of qualities we lack. If he does want out, not sure many other clubs need a left backrower so surely we'd be a chance. And the likes of Souths have cap constraints.

I think there would be a few clubs that would take him. I still think Parra will go hard despite public denial. Clubs like Penrith and Souths, while they don't have the cap space now, could easily tap a player or two on the shoulder and make the room. It could be as simple as Dodd moving back to Super League or sending Papali'i on his way for Penrith.

It's not just about a total overhaul, it should be about have we improved over the years .... we are still in the running for the wonderful spoon again so going by the players above you have listed we are still going backwards or maybe its the players we are bringing in that are really not up to scratch ??

Ok. So we should replace Api, Jarome, Taylan, Terrell, Turuva and Skelton.

Who would you replace them with that would be better? I'm open to the criticism of the signings, but you've got to put down the alternatives.

Also, objectively we are not going backwards. We already have 1 more win than last year with 6 games remaining. That is not backwards. You may think we could have done more, but it is definitely not backwards.

Losers like you are a big part of the problem at this club. A culture where losing is acceptable and underperforming is not only tolerated by celebrated.

Do you work for HBG by any chance?

I’d say you’re the problem mate. If the saviour came through the front door of the club you’d stuff up his coffee and then complain about him.

Tiger in boots is one of the only ones in this forum that makes any sense and looking for positive change rather than just b*tching and moaning
