Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

What about Blake Austin ? Killing it overseas and we release him when we had Brooks, Moses etc.. More reliable than Josh R for me

 

[Demps]

@hsvjones true

Reimis Smith is clearly unhappy at the dogs due to the lack of ball he gets. He has the potential to be the best winger in the game.


1. Moses Mbye *
2. Reimis Smith (Bulldogs)
3. Hymel Hunt (Newcaste)
4. Mawene Hiroti (Souths)
5. Kane Bradley (Canterbury Cup)

6. Brandon Wakeham (Bulldogs)
7. Luke Brooks *

8. Alex Twal *
9. Robbie Fatah (1 more year)
10. Oliver Clarke *
11. Ryan Matterson (C)
12. Chris Lawrence / MCK
13. Josh Aloiai *

14. Jacob Liddle *
15. Thomas Mikaele *
16. Renouf Toomaga (Bulldogs)
17. Kayne Kalache (Bulldogs)

This is realistic and solves a lot of our problems. Makes us a top 8 team.

We've been saying for years dogs have the cattle but never look after em so let's raid the ranks. It's worked well for us before.

Don't mind it but are we really going to raid the team coming 2nd last..?

 

[Demps]

@Geo nah. Were gonna raid the team coming first.

Yep better plan...

 

[Demps]

@Geo titans are coming last at the moment.

We need new blood and those are all realistic options.

When we have looked for players on the cusp of grade in the past we have succeeded.

Austin, Naiqama, Taupau, Gavet...

We need to do this again, money ball signings.

Succeeded in coming 9th..I do like Remis Smith and Toomungo...would add pace and size which we need...but can't see them being let go ...

 

[Sunnycoast_tiger]

@Geo We can give them David Nofoaluma,:grin: Robert Jennings and Esan Marsters

 

[Madgic]

@hsvjones some reserve graders can be a bargain! Raiders got CNK for $105,000 a year. How would he fit as fullback?

 

[TYGA]

@TYGA Let me add big money only for proven *current* Origin players. None of this, he played a game for Qld back in the Super League days, so let's put him on $750k for 4 years...

Agree. Tigers have to build a club these types of players want to play at. Until then smart recruitment and junior development. The Storm are the model we should follow. Any big money deals for potential need to be short term so the club can get out of them. No 4 year Mbye, Packer, Reynolds deals.

 

[Madge]

the mole reporting a swap deal between Jamayne Issako and Corey Allan. Maybe we can offer Robert Jennings for Jamayne Issako, I’m sure they will accept 😂

With that team Raiders 72 Wests Tigers 0

and 500k with each of them. Incorrect 950k with Jennings.

 

[TheDaBoss]

Thoughts on trying to get Blake Austin Back?

In great form atm in the superleague

 

[Madge]

@TheDaBoss his defence is horrific and he only has one play that he always does which is the dummy pass and go. No thanks.

 

[Tcat]

@TheDaBoss I'd take Austin back for sure (obviously for the right $$ & term). Who else is there atm. He can fill a few positions in our backline and can he kick goals?

 

[TheDaBoss]

@TheDaBoss his defence is horrific and he only has one play that he always does which is the dummy pass and go. No thanks.

Seems to be working in the Super League, he is the running person for the Man of steel medal, or what ever its called

 

[hsvjones]

@TheDaBoss Defense can be fixed with the right coaching.. E.g. Brooks was a turnstile as few years back and now he is one of the best halves in NRL on defense. I would sign him for the right money or even swap him and Josh R

 

[BenzaTiger]

Did anyone hear on MMM rush hour who the SOO forward is that WT and the Eels are apparently chasing? Thanks

Did not hear it, but The Pom has said before it is Welsh.
