Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Tom Shines]

what about Xerri, perhaps we can try and get hom from dogs ?

Bit more chance than Herbie price wise I suspect … they would need to let him go early though

 

[Buttface]

He would never come to us, but Herbie F would transform our backline. Mate I’d throw the kitchen sink at him if there was even half a chance.
Taylan and Maka on one side. Herbie and Turuva on the other with Bula at the back. AD and Luai in the halves. Latu at 14.

How good!!

I had a google, he signed a 1 year extension so he comes off contract for the new teams, so who ever he signs with will need a kitchen sink. He’d be good to get I just can’t see it being economical for us.

 

[weststigers]

Look at ST GEORGE at the moment have already signed up 3 top class players,
And they only started looking about a month or so ago for new players,
just watch them go past our rebuild And be in top 8 before us.

Didn't we literally just extend both May boys, Turuva, Bula and Makasini?

Or unless the players are new, the club isn't recruiting?

herbie lol that is a classic hey

I wonder what dogs would want for Xerri, contracted until end of 2027.
if we can get him prior to June 30, probably best option out there.

Apparently though dogs are now looking at a Verrils swap 🙁

@Demps
KMapz?
I think Demps said the same recently?

He went to England.
Krystian Mapapalangi

Not sure if he means some one else though....

You can’t have it all. We’ll definitely sign one or two players each year, but if people are expecting spending sprees, they’re gonna be disappointed.

Why would you trade Xerri for Verrills

Herbie is the best centre in the game easily at the moment. He is as close to a million dollar centre you will get, I would love him but that's pipe dream stuff unfortnuately.

That sounds right but I thought he went to Central Coast. Oh well, somewhat right 🙂

There are a lot of machinations behind the scenes eg Bulldogs potential players swap Xerri for Verrills (Roosters). I know WT now do these things quietly and without publicity but I sure hope we are going around looking at such possibilities before 30 June.

Ah ha, this is the bloke I was thinking of: Izaac Tui'itupou.

Krystian Mapapalangi was my bad. Im getting old- either would be good now as back up.

Yeah, he is playing for Lakes United in the Newcastle comp.

We let him go for whatever reason.
Looked decent in his limited chances.

Doubt we'd bring him back.

Must have been a reason ? He’s certainly a large human ? Maybe he was on the KFC diet ?

Not sure theres all that much we can offer Dogs unfortunately. Floated Skelton for Xerri yesterday but they seem ok for depth on the wing with Rinakama waiting. Maybe a a guy like Tony Sukkar who has been jumped by Roberts?

These swaps barely ever happen but its nice to dream

We could use either of them right now!

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

Can we swap Hope for Xerri...lol...Come on Gus, speak to Hope!

Probably Isaac Thompson who I think went up to the Newcastle comp

Second row depth still an issue. I would be waiting to see a bit more of Roberts first before knowing whether he has more potential than Sukkar

Thats fair, although centre depth is in crisis
