Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[kade7]

Hey Kade,

Should we be expecting any Nov 1 player movements?
Or any predictions from you?

hey 👋
few rumblings happening, the market really thrown into a spin, i think the club will wait and see the fall out from sam walker before making any moves

but i stress it again we have room in the cap for a substantial signing if one became available

That sounds good, but if we can’t hook a big fish, what becomes of this cap space?

Is the women's football still a thing ?? Been in Europe and China for several weeks so who cares what happens to them - basically it's just virtue signalling and something to fill in for Kayo.

I really hope not, but we have seen this movie before….

There's been more sequels to this movie than fast and the furious. I hope it works out, I can see why they have made the signing and it is on the surface a good signing, it just not the type of signing that has ever worked for us in the past...

If we are travelling as a team in the mix, I think he will go ok but if not the wear and tear will feel significantly worse and his value off the field may be better than on.
One year deal not much risk.

I still worry about our depth. All well and good if we land a "big fish" but the minute they get injured or we have another crisis like this season where players were dropping every week for an eight week period it's going to ruin us again. I don't like the balance of the top 30 so far.

Iam getting sick of watching the women’s games , teams getting smashed, and the people keep saying how good it is , I think it is killing the game , no one wants to see teams getting smashed, it’s bad enough watching it in the men’s games

Yeah really glad there has been hardly any blow outs in the mens world cup.

Curious, if you dislike it so much why on earth would you watch it? Plenty in the world to be upset about.

Its spent on Sukkar and Mason :-(

What were the political issues that prevented the May brothers representing Samoa?
Latu was not in the 17 last night and may not get a run next week either so the call that we have 1 rep out of the 68 semi finalists is likely accurate.

They applied to play for Fiji not Samoa.

It's as equally as irrelevant as the AFLW - its plainly just virtual signalling

That was the Fainus. I believe Terrell rules himself out of the tournament and Taylan not available though injury. Both definitely would've been in contention for selection, not sure either were an automatic pick if available.

We’ve picked up an S&C coach from Parra

Weirdly
- I thought Harry played better Footy with us… seems to get lost down there a bit?
Dunno, maybe I don’t see enough of him.

Also think Tedesco had a better style of Footy here than he has over there…
He’s a bit like Paul Gallen at fullback over there.

I feel it’s because here the rest of the team is worse so we rely on a great player like Grant or Teddy more, thus they are given full freedom to express themselves and play exactly how they want. Whereas at Melb there are great players around Grant so he has to play a role in the machine instead of being the main man

That’s shit, Parra have had bad injury problems for years

The closest thing to a premiership in the next 5 years is going to come from our NRLW side
The men are a mile away
