Willison allegedly knocked back a $1 million a season deal with Brisbane
That's a lot of money .....

Crazy if he did
That's Hudson Young money..

He isn’t worth more than that. PNG? Crazy money

5 games off the bench, Doesn't make him a middle...
I'm over this invention that Sam Fainu is a middle.

I've included his 2023 summary as well, Where he played primarily 2nd row for his junior club.
He's played the last 4 seasons (at least) in the Back Row, and is starting there for us next year.

He's one of the better back rowers in the comp - Why there's so much noise around him.
Move him, Why - Because there's nothing else 'cool' to write here?

Second row is the strongest part of our team (Sam & KPP) with API should be the first players picked each week.
Why anyone wants to change Sam’s position is beyond belief.

It worked so well with Madge.

The opposite has really worked with Benji!

Whatever it is it’s bloody annoying when you’re trying to read a post properly. I don’t know who put it on, but it’s an unnecessary distraction that has no place on a a footy forum, imo.

Drives me insane as well.

I think it is @Kul who put it into the coding years ago now.

Whoever is site admin or responsible for it, can we PLEASE REMOVE THIS PEURILE TANTRUM over a person becoming president of a country we don't even live in?!

FFS.....

Problem solved, Averillo to left second row.

Well it is the Wests Tigers and anything is possible. 🤣

With Samuel wanting to play middle , makes my info my mate got from the highest person in the club , that there after a very good backrower, will try to get more info

There’s a bit of journeyman about the new recruits but the leavers didn’t make much of a contribution so looks like an improvement for sure

A kinder run with injuries and a few youngsters a year older, all seems positive

But do your own research, I’m a long time Tiger optimist 🐯🙏🏼

It's a steady improvement.

Brailey > Hope
Frizell > Geyer
Averillo > To'a

My wish list is another centre/wing, a halfback and an enforcer type prop.

Forget the other 2. The club needs a 7.

I hope u don’t get charged with slander, dum post

This is is the real dum post. Why would I get charged with slander? I'm just pointing out that the Forum has this extra message auto coded whenever someone mentions that persons name!

We need a proper lock forward. I'd be targeting the Knights. They have McEwan, Lucas and Manuleilua for 2 edge forward roles. And Matt Croker had a great season. But Manuleilua was amazing at lock for Samoa the other night. Both he and Croker are available to talk to Nov 1. Either would elevate our pack at the lock position

 

[wstigers11]

Has the club said when pre-season starts?

Skelton going back to the Dogs

Skelton going back to the Dogs

Makes sense, I remember Gus was upset when he left
