Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I agree and have said the same thing myself.
What I’m saying is we should be ideally monitoring plenty of players, emerging, established and experienced from far and wide and even though the UK Super Keague standard is not very high, there are still players from that competition we should be monitoring at the very least.

Yeah fair enough.

On the pod one of the guys made mention someone who gives him decent mail told him we have already signed a half for next year. Said he wasnt told who but that Tigers supporters would be really happy. Walker for a year or two would have been great. In typical fashion though his career on the pitch might be over after his acl injury.

As an example I reckon Bevan French has enough class that he could quit Wigan to come and play in the NRL in 2027 as a right sided 5/8 at age 30 and still be very dominant.
I know it is very unlikely to happen as he is contracted to Wigan, but he has developed into a high class ball playing 5/8 in his time in the UK and not many halves in the NRL have his same quality and vision.
Jez Litten looks a quality number 9 who would do very well in the NRL.
There are some very good young outside backs including Zach Eckersley at Wigan and Harry Robertson at St Helens.
I reckon James McDonnell currently with Leeds and signed for Perth Bears next season will surprise a few people with his ability.
There is also a couple of good young emerging halves including Ewan Irwin who could be a once in a generation talent and I’m surprised no NRL club made him an offer too good to refuse before he re-signed with Warrington.

There was whisper of Blaize Talagi

That kinda makes sense for us except who do the Panthers play instead? Jack Cole isn't quite it for mine and then on our end Tailagi joins competition for spots w Madden and Andrews. Unsure why he'd do that.

Jack Cole is signed with Perth Bears.
It’s likely Jett Cleary will partner Nathan Cleary in the halves for the Panthers next season and they still also have Jack Cogger.
I reckon the Panthers would let Blaize Talagi go if he was keen to leave, so he would definitely be an option if we were either moving Doueihi to 13 or letting him head elsewhere.

Yeah it will be interesting if we do get Blaize. I have viewed hom more as a centre or fullback than a 6. He plays centre today, so it will be interesting to see how he defends there.
