The money Blore would want could be used to have a crack at Spinks and/or Preston from the Dogs. I really like acquiring a player on the cusp of the NRL.

Yes, so he gets paid more than Alex. Who's on 475k.
In comparison Sam gets 800k+

If Alex seyfarth, a fringe nrl player at most clubs is on 475k that would go down as one of the worst value signings of all time.

who ever signed off on that should be stood down immediately.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

He looks 10

He's around 15yrs old.
But not the usual short nugget so there's a chance they are now looking beyond 15-year-old nuggets running rampage against kids. Skills, growth potential and fingers crossed.

Love Spinks type signing

Courier Mail: Storm star Shawn Blore tours Brisbane Broncos facilities as club attempts to fill backrow void

The Broncos have ramped-up their aggressive recruitment drive with Brisbane targeting Storm grand final back-rower Shawn Blore.

This masthead can reveal Brisbane bosses have met with the Melbourne forward, who toured the Broncos’ facilities on Wednesday in the lead-up to Saturday night’s blockbuster against the Cowboys in Townsville.

The off-contract 25-year-old is without a deal for next season and has been in talks with Melbourne about extending.

Blore played against Brisbane in last year’s NRL decider but the Samoa international could find himself in Broncos colours next season as the defending premiers look to bolster their back-row stocks.

Strike back-rower Brendan Piakura has been stood down indefinitely due to a series of head knocks and Broncos coach Michael Maguire confirmed his interest in Blore.

“Yes, ‘Blorey’ is a player of interest,” Maguire said.

“We have to look at building our depth in the back row so we’re looking across the competition at a number of options.

“We haven’t made an offer to Shawn as yet, but we’re talking to him and we’ll see where it goes.

Let him go there that means we pick up a Ray Stone and Leon Spinks so be it.

Might be hard to get Leon Spinks from the afterlife but if we could he’d bring much-needed aggression 🤣

Alex Twal.

Unfortunately, I think Stone is going to Penrith. Would be good lock depth for us.

Tallis Duncan is right up there with them, if not better than both.

mate of mine knows Duncan's old man through the Navy, we tried to get Duncan prior to him re-signing with souths in 2025, he was pretty keen but the magic of bennet prevailed.
I would say we have a good chance next contract end of 2027. Not sure what it would cost tigers though ?

penrith having a sniff around alex seyfarth for next year also 🤔

and everyone is correct $hawn Blore , tigers think it's too much

schuuster might get a run in cup by the end of the year, but club isnt in a hurry, he played fine in cup for souths it's behaviour at training that was the concern, he will be on train and trial if he trains hard

Richo was close to the Duncan family from his days with Souths. With Richo’s exit we are zero chance of getting Duncan when ever his contract runs out.

we want bore because our forward depth is bordering on Ron Massey standard.

I don't particularly want blore, but I want forward depth and don't want to see some of the guys used this year ever again, or some of the bench rotations (or lack of where we play our whole pack for 80 mins cause we have no-one competent)

The issue is guys like Sukkar and Geyer were supposed to be the depth in the forwards. Sukkar is a mystery to me . He goes real well in cup , and then comes up to nrl and is an abomination . Geyer ….. I mean talk about dining out on your last name .
If either or both of those guys played at the level that was expected , and you can chuck Murray in there as well and hope , all 4 of those guys were supposed to do a job in case of injury. And none of them have / did.
Maybe it’s because they all needed to be given opportunities is a pack where they were given token minutes or off the bench or defending in edges where they were only one missing instead of often with that whole edge sitting on the sideline , I mean that’s probably true , but still . They all been disappointing , and as the stars of the team filter back post thier injuries and try and find form in a league where form is so dependant on consistency and understanding the rhythm of the season , I dunno …. 🤷‍♀️

If big red leaves, we will have even less depth #shambles

 

[vlad]

Eels fans think they’ve signed Saukuru

Seyfarth isn’t off contract? Does that mean we could get a player swap or we’re just idiots

Didn't realise that Doueihi is related to Michael Cheika .....maybe he could coach the WTs in the near future
