Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Its a simple yes no question on the point i posted about which seems difficult to answer.

If you dont want to answer it dont but don't hijack the point i was trying to make.

Im just saying do people think its a bad thing for the club to forget about Doueihi form at 6 in those games.

Those games happened. His injury happened and the whole team went bad after that there were factors around his form drop.

I see more what you are saying. I still believe those games you refer to were good individual games. He didnt do much for his team mates in regards to ball playing and creating space. Slightly more acceptable because he played like a running 6 with an organising half, so that takes some of the half duties away from him. Im not sure the mix would be right having a running 6 like Adam unless we had a ball playing fullback. I think having a running 6 and 1 would leave too much pressure on the 7. If Bula could play like a 2nd 5/8, then AD at 6 could make sense

That was the reason it fell through .....PVL wanted her to do Dance Monkey ......she didn't want to perform Dance Monkey

None of us want her to.

Only one I know is Dance Monkey ......it was played a thousand times on TV

Her album Beautifully Ordinary, released in 2024, was critically acclaimed and reached No. 1 on the ARIA charts. Her voice has a mix of Sia, Paloma Faith and Amy Winehouse.

But the big difference is that she can play multiple instruments and is an incredible musician.

If you only listened to her without knowing what she looked like, you might think she was a black singer performing gospel music.

Shannon Noll made an offer to perform lol

I work in the industry, it was a money and licensing issue. Dance Monkey is still licensed to Sony Music, they wanted to get paid and PVL pushed back.

So the whole Macklemore thing was a load of crap
I'm sure I heard recently he was the opening act for Ed Sherran ??

Good point the 9 and 1 never exactly clicked together

 

[Ermo]

I think he just struggles with confidence

And defence

 

[tigeress]

I think he just struggles with confidence

I always thought he seemed confident-he comes across as very confident

 

[tigeress]

He does and we do. I just wish he had a bigger boot on him, his kicks often don’t have enough depth on them to pin the opposing team near their goal line.

Yes I agree with you about his kicking game unfortunately, to me though that's his only fault.

 

[Leck]

None of us want her to.

Who would you like instead?

 

[tigeress]

I found it really interesting that when Luai went off in our last game Madden played with a lot more freedom.

I think Luai's presence was stifling the team. I think now they may have more "freedom"

 

[achilles]

Yeh he backs himself just unsure he considers himself week week in weel out first grader yet which understandable because no one has backed him as yet

 

[innsaneink]

You dont slot a one.pointer in the dying seconds of an NRL game with plenty coming at you if you have no confidence
He knows his role, he knows hes back up

 

[Leck]

What freedom?

Luai has proven he is not a leader nor a man of integrity or truth.

However we still have the worst idiots that manage our club, HBG. Can we please get rid of them ASAP.

How many hits do they have ?

 

[Odessa]

Toni Watson is an incredible singer and songwriter that started on the streets of Byron as a busker and made the big time.

This is the song that PVL would not pay for her to sing as part of the grand final performance. Good on her for telling him to shove off.

His excuse was artists get paid too much. What a twat.

Is this her playing on the street?

 

[LeichhardtTiger]

Is it about right that we have 24 signed players for 2027 including Douehi, Royce, Junior, Madden, Roberts & Haywood? (from ZT)

Frizell potentially instead of Royce if he finds a home

So space for 5-6 without any others moving on

Sukkar & Skelton currently show as not yet signed beyond 2026. I’d keep both

Tavana shows as signed from 2028 as does Attard, and are Dev players for 2027 along with Havea

Can’t see Vaka Aho anywhere

I just played that video out the back in the vege patch and it cleared the aphids, wasps and bees in 1m 20 seconds. I had to play some Barry Gibb to get the Bees back. Geez!

 

[kiwitiger]

I think most people just want him out of the club! I know I do...

If he is here next year it's because no one wants him.
He is having surgery because no one will buy a player not ready for next year.

 

[LeichhardtTiger]

To be honest, there is only one song that should ever be played at a Grand Final. I realise this may be a contentious call, but Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Tiger Legend, Jack Riewoldt and Mr Brightside.
