Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[GNR4LIFE]

The plan before Latu got injured was for AD to start the season at 13.
I wouldn't be surprised if Benji goes back to the original plans and we start next year with:

1.Bula
6.Latu
7.Andrews
9.Api / Haywood
13.AD

There’s no way we’ll start the year with a kid on debut, and another who has played only a handful of games at 7 at NRL level.

Guessing the contracts Kade mentions are the Feinu boys. courtesy of being able to use Romeys dollars …

I saw somewhere a week or so ago Hynes may be on the outer at cronulla....wonder if romey ends up there

Seems.a bit of a round hole square peg move tho

 

[Tigerstigerstigers]

Also reckon as soon as we are out of finals contention we will see Javron given some first grade game time. Latu before then.

 

[wstigers11]

Hopefully they haven’t done this without Samuela & Latu’s signature

Or Uncle Wayne comes in. They may decide not to extend Cody Walker & go all in for a premiership next season when Payne Haas arrives before Latrell & Wighton get too old.

I’m guessing this means the season really is over 😂..

If he doesn’t want to go to Perth ( unlikely IMO) … they will probably need to retain a fair clip of his $1.2m salary to move him on …least it’s just one year

Info I heard was Luai. Still don’t know if true but now being reported In media . But wasn’t saying in case it wasn’t as I don’t like to make stuff up.
lol given the comments I’ll keep to myself from now on.

Prefer info like this rather than some deadset boring off topic chatter you consistently read on here. So my advice to you and all on here with some gossip info is to Ignore negative comments and keep posting as (after all) this is also supposed to be rumours forum.

Thing is there was no info..no nothing

Panthers - Blaize hit a wall with development, Jack Cole not extended?
Wahs - doubt they take on the cap
Roosters - nope
Knights - doubt it
Dolphins - Nikorima not extended yet? Have they signed a pom tho
Sharks - Nicho on the rocks? Doubtful tho
Manly - Joey Walsh, Fog and Brooks. No way
Bunnies - could see it but doubt they’ve got the cap unless we contribute
Cows - Doubt it
Dogs - Always desperate
Storm - Highly doubt it $$$
Raiders - Sanders, Strange, Black (even Laurie). Doubtful
Eels - Bridge before Lorenzo but stupid to throw away Volkman for a rental
Titans - JC, Brimmo, Harrison, Hanson so doubt it
Broncos - Duffy, Mam and Hunt next year with Mam on the rocks? Possibility
Dragons - always desperate but doubt they will with flanno 🐐 and reed and Metcalf
Bears - Likely, they look 💩

Other big fish in the halves market:
Nikorima, Cody Walker, Nicho and Mam (potentially booted)

Smaller fish in the market:
Jack Cole, Brad Schneider

Good shout. Money will still be a factor though.

You started second guessing yourself...thats when comments started to get a bit critical....at the end of the day it does have "rumours" in the title so go hard.

I’d take virtually no one that list. Probably only Walsh, which is not happening.

It’s poorly made by me but it’s not a shopping list it’s a list of which clubs I reckon will/wont take him and why/why not

Latu and Javon are the future

Makes sense getting rid of Jerome if any of the talk about Latu and Javon over the last month performance in ressie is to go by

Is Haywood far better than Lanyon? Is Lanyon at NSW Cup standard only?

I asked AI to analyse his story on Sunday and was gonna send it in here but thought I was overthinking it haha. Here’s its summary tho, unfortunately my photos never post when I go to upload them:

Burna Boy – “I Told Them”: All about proving doubters wrong (“I told them I’m a genius… I had to show them”).

Context

Luai has copped heavy flak in 2026 over his Wests Tigers form, big contract, and PNG Chiefs move. This post = defiant “I told y’all / keep watching” energy. Classic Luai: cocky, stylish, and unapologetic.

 

[weststigers]

Wonder what Schuster is doing...not named in cup

 

[TigerTigerTigerTiger]

Luai didn't play last week due to "delayed concussion symptoms". That seem like a load of rubbish now!
