Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Why would Martin want to come here and can someone provide 1 example of when a big money external recruit actually worked out?

I think SM is correct focus on pathway

As long as that focus is based around a very significant funding increase. I am not optimistic at all and fear we will be discussing this near end of 27 year.

I wouldn't talk until after Mad Monday. 🤣

If there is one club who know how not to have a disastrous Mad Monday it is us,the only times we have a horror Mad Monday is when we actually make the semis and lose.
Highly unlikely for that to change this century as i can't see semi final football until 2100+

I agree better to just develop our own, concern is funding for it

Yeh i gues there is a lot to go into it

- talent identification
- getting them tough and NRL ready
- Keeping them
- funding ect ect

We have not been doing it correctly for a long time

Recruitment and development needs a lot of strengthening.

I think his better days are starting to slip away.

I agree.
Liam Martin has been an outstanding player and who could blame him from now trying to cash in and get a big money deal before he retires, but I agree that there are signs of wear and tear from all the years of ripping in and playing above his weight catching up with him.
This time next season I’d say Jacob Preston, Tallis Duncan, Hudson Young and the young Roosters player Salesi Foketi will all be better quality players than the ageing Liam Martin.

He was our attack coach a few years back and did a good job. We urgently need a new attack coach and a defensive coach. Come to think of it, a new head coach would help to

We need something because I am running out of Jack Daniels & I can’t watch this team without a drink 😂.

Andrew Webster extended by the Wahs till end of 2032. He’s actually got the runs on the board to warrant that length.

You beauty, a coach that has finally a longer contract then our Benji, oh and he has made finals too...mmm oh we are such a smart club

 

[davey_farrell]

We have a defensive coach named Benji.

He's very defensive of our players at post match pressers.

That is very good 🙂

Salary Cap won’t allow his to have 4 players up around the million dollar mark, so if we were able to potentially sign a high quality player such as Liam Martin, Jacob Preston, Tallis Duncan, we would either have to forgo keeping Samuela or offload someone else already on big money such as Jahream or Terrell,
On current form a combination of Twal and Seyfarth could comfortably give us the same impact as what Terrell is, but the issue is we desperately need Taylan May and they are seemingly a package deal.
