Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Odessa]

Curran is all effort. Often leads kick chases, line speed and his leg speed & effort enables him to clean up behind the ruck. The sort of player Benji loves.

Would be a great get for the Bears 🐻 maybe they can get him for 800K and Campbell for 1.5 million

Then they just need a coach

This is getting crazy! Campbell is not worth more then Bula!

At least we don't have to worry about the spoon in 27

I would go after Dylan Edwards Yeo Corey Jensen Curran Tapine

Players at the back end of there career that have been loyal to there clubs and the club's mite return a favour and let them go for a golden handshake

Bears need a few quality hard heads that Bennett got to the dolphins

 

[Wezt]

He goal kicks and has a long kicking game and is a better ball player .....he us better than Bula but not a 1.5 million player

6 million over 5 years does not equal 1.5 million

It’s 1.2m which is still crazy overs

 

[Lestronge]

Are you available to make a comeback Lestronge ?

From what Sydney grade , I’m a never was bro . I had to know the game just to get to that level . I’m not under any illusions about my playing ability.
Although if they want to chuck a half a mil to come off the bench for 20 mins , sign me up ….

Saw your Oasis comment in the music thread. I'm early 40s and still go to gigs too. Keeps you young!

Do you go to concerts or pub gigs around town ? As my kids get older and more independent, I’ve started to get itchy feet about the idea of going out again … but home in bed by 12 .. not 12 the next day lol

Mate I was buggered by 2am the last time I got out... I listen to electronic music, parties are in pubs/clubs

When was that, 3 years ago? Think it’s a wasted T&T spot for an injury prone player who was never crash hot and hasn’t played in 3 years.

Would have preferred other guys who were available like Tui’tupou, Jake Tago, Haze Dunster, Smith-Sheilds, Tony Francis and some others from Super League over Herbert on a T&T, but I guess that’s all we were left with.

All our signings so far have that "dirt cheap" feel to them.

i.e. were stacking up our cap for top shelf talent (I am hoping).

Ryan Papp's wouldn't be a bad option. (pro's and con's, but not bad. Especially if we loose Bula).

I miss happy raves.

I also miss crashing out on the morning train from central around 8am...
NO WAY Am I doing that now.

I was a raver too buddy, call up on the night to know the location. the trek to the party was half the fun.

After 14 beers you're passed out at 8pm 😂 I was drinking vodka red bulls but was still buggered getting old mate

Who’s this?

Nathan milone?

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Competition for spots is great. If
toa is serious he need to be the first 8 rounds Star not the injured turnstile. It won’t be acceptable this year. Herbert is a T&T nothing to lose…didn’t say he is a world beater. Will go good in cup and who knows, hopefully he buys into the culture and trains hard. Boys look fit in the preseason photos.

Apparently they are training the house down..

He's not even a marquee signing, they wanted Munster but missed out

I’ll sign on for 3mil$. Got 1 or 2 hit ups in me

Some of this hasn't worked well for us. Not just Josh Reynolds/Packer... But the Jet and BJ too...

Particularly with Benji as a rookie coach, I would be ok with picking up a solid end of contract player. But I want to pick up someone who won't argue with the coach and go along.

Benji is aiming for Speed, so older players don't make the best sense in this case.

I have seen people posting that we have signed a mystery forward. Would anyone care to elaborate for me?

Sione? 🙏 😂
