Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Wiz]

The week before he ran for 130m on 11 carries and had like 19 tackles with none missed. It was a bad game though. Right now the problem with him is there is a massive gap between his best and worse. At his best he looks like a white Taumalolo clone. At his worst he plods around like a deer in headlights.

Thank goodness. I thought you were going to say at worst he looks like Royce Hunt.

alot better then most we have in reserve grade

 

[weststigers]

We may well be. I know Gallant is aware of him. He didn't imply one way or the other but I also am told Crosby has 6 clubs chasing his signature.

Him and Tom Ale. AFL and Gaelic Football also interested.

 

[weststigers]

I reckon based on potential he is way more valuable then bird at 400k.... wouldnt be made if tigers signed him for a couple of years at 400k given bird is a genuine reserve grader on that amount

Bird is on 250k...which filing cabinet did you break into to think he is on 400k?

Can we sign Tallis Duncan…….

To play in front of????

 

[BBTF]

Souths are not letting go Tallis Duncan. He is close to first picked for us.

Twal at 13

Twal at 13

Nup I’m don’t see the point in that. Twal is better

We are lucky to have Benji as our coach who is so passionate about this club....

I agree and will always back the call. Benji never wanted to leave was forced money or not. He should have been looked after and never been made to feel like an outsider. People in control of the whole Benji and robbie saga should be called out and hung. The big 4 hurt at the time. The only one i reget is Teddy.Moses can go f--k himself coz im sure he looks in a mirror every niight. Woods, couda wouda been something but hey. Brooks had his mates hang him. Onwards without the bullshit. Amazing that Benji ever came back. He knows the GERMS have been sprayed with GLEN 20 99% KIĹL RATE. THATS US Tigers until end of season. 99% kill rate. LOOKED LIKE KILLERS TODAY IN OUR OWN WAY. KEEP OUR WAY.

Sloan gets a rough deal at the Dragons. He's not a Flanagan style of player. Raw pace is an outstanding commodity and I'm sure our coaching team teach him defence.

Can get over the line. After today i'm liking our defence. Been liking it for awhile now. So yes we maybe able to teach him. Nofa kills me. Never taught.

Pace yes, but choosing Sloane means you lose physicality. Way more physical plays in a game for players compared to when they find themselves in space and need raw speed.

I'd pick Skelton every time on that basis. He might be able to do a job for a team at fullback, but even then, he needs to work on his size and strength.

I want to see us win the Cowboys and Titans game...these are the tyoes of games we need to win each year to make the 8.

Too many games dropped against teams around us and below.

Like i said i wouldn't ask to sign him but he does convert.

Skelton everyday

I'd probably prefer Zyon Maiu'u from the Bulldogs if looking for a potential guy.

I watch the highlights of that Warriors reserve grade side each week and he looks pretty mid …I would rather have Bunty Afoa

Katoa and papalii also looked mid at the warriors

 

[balmain boy]

Agree he’s a solid player. Some years ago I believe he carved us up in KOE playing for the Eels. Couldn’t crack the Eels or Warriors teams which is a red flag and has been around for years now.

Ness never left the warriors. Still only young, was their next big thing a few years ago. Young player of the year etc

He just needs better assistants. Our attack is woeful

 

[balmain boy]

Of course it works both ways and there is no anxiety, but if you want a successful rugby league club to focus on keeping your very best talents in each age group.
I don’t watch every minute of every game in the lower grades, so there are some who are better placed on rating our emerging talent than what I , but from the games I have watched I believe Goodfield was our player with the most potential in the outside backs from our Wests Magpies Harold Matthews team.
Losing him is not the end of the world as nobody is irreplaceable, but it would have been better if we had kept him.

Lanyon certainly has a much much higher ceiling than Goodfield, who was solid but unspectacular. Probably the 3-4th best back from the matts team. He'll have more competition at Panthers too so no guarantee to stay

Is bailey haywood who is a dog utility jareds oldèr brother? If so i can see a shit storm brewing in a tea cup. Richo and benji need to get in baileys ear somehow b4 Pumkin head gets Jared. That would make losing TDS a farce. Get on it Richo and Benji.
