Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

a heard a whisper that we are pushing to get jake here before june 30

Hope it wasn’t on the Wests Tigers podcast last night …. That was proclaimed as nothing more than a gut feel ..:

Wonder how Jakey would feel about coming here early and forgoing any chance at a premiership this year with the Lolphins?
 
Bit like saying all Margot Robbie has is good looks

Although we would have to be the slowest team in the comp by the length of the Flemington straight …can only conclude speed is not a quality they prioritise in their team building ,,,
You really think the Dragon’s team are faster than WT?

we could debate that ..Sloan goes ok for instance …they look a bit quicker now in the backs with the likes of Suli and Flanagan out of the team.. they also will have Drinkwater and Metcalf there next year so things could turn around quick smart ..

if we gotta compare ourselves against a 1-13 team for a win we are in trouble …who is the next slowest team… the Dogs maybe ?

Do you agree that lack of speed in the WT team is a long standing problem ?
 
What the Australian squad going against America!

A nation of 400 Million people who usually dominate most olympic sports. The only reason why they did not do well at Soccer is they did not care about soccer. Now they are starting to care...

Against:

27 Million Australians, A nation that can get to the top 5 Olympic spots. Yet also doesn't have Soccer as our national sport...

...

Damn it just hit me.
I just don't care about soccer at all.
Meh Next comment about Luke Brooks hooking up with Gavlin please.
Thier best players are non USA products . Ie. they’re yanks who learnt thier trade in other countries youth systems .
They’re also given opportunities much like Japanese players , above alternative countries because of the revenue they drive for clubs simply by being a USA player. And clubs wanting to tap into the USA market .
It’s really complex . Thier youth systems are. Bigger joke than ours .
 
Name the players and list who they should replace
Our outside backs who currently offer more tackle bust threat, line break threat and consistently make big metres each game are Luke Laulilli, Solomone Saukuru and Jeral Skelton.
Common sense would tell you at least 2 of them need to be playing in our NRL with Taylan May and Sunia Turuva being locks for the other two positions within our 2-5.
Makasini has massive potential and played ok against the Dolphins when he come on, but he is not showing enough tackle break and line break threat at the moment and that would be ok if the others were doing it, but if we are being honest Taylan May and Sunia Turuva have not been close to their best recently themselves.
So if we cannot rely on them to provide us with a bit of x-factor, we need to find a couple of players who can assist in doing so.
I know some will say Starford To’a beat 5 players to score a try against the Dolphins and that is great, but what did he do for the rest of the game ?
His yardage carries are bog average and similar to when Tavana was in the team, he will be looking for support as soon as he has clear space ahead of him from any distance.
Unless you have the size and physique of Jeral Skelton, there is no excuse and it is embarrassing to have NRL wingers that have no speed to score or finish off long range tries.

Will he find any ?

I think they could beat the Knights with AD and Twal back ( hopefully) … not that we are much good, but watching them , they look a bit over rated too me…
