Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Spud_Murphy]

Noone who is currently under contract at a good club like the Roosters will come to us. Why would a roosters play agree to leave his contract to play for us? This is vastly different to Matterson who was off contract and needed a new home in 2019.

If they want Fifita as much as it seems they do there will be some casualties. Surely they couldn’t keep them all!

I believe Matterson had a year to run didn’t he?

Indeed he did.

Lomax or better please


Out of left field, I’m thinking either Angus Crichton, JWH or Jordan Rapana.

Do we dare to dream. One good signing could really change our fortunes.

we need that one good one that others choose to follow

JWH would get us a bit of respect up front, with a rejuvenated Packer..


Out of the 3 I mentioned he would be the one I would want here most, he brings a lot to a team on and off the field. I’m leaning more to it being Crichton though, which would be great if he can find his debut year form, no so much his present form.

Yeah, I agree with JWH. I thought Crichton finished the season really strongly, similar player to Matterson.

would crichton be the player trumpeted? surely not....

is he a leader like Matterson was for us last year? I hate to admit it but he did do a lot of work on the pitch

 

[Spacecub]

Unfortunately, they usually do keep them all, or replace them with even better more credentialed ones, nothing to see there Toddy, or apparently so.:white_frowning_face:

@Spud_Murphy

I just read a story that roosters have lined up a new home for Chriton as he hasn’t lived up to their expectations so they can fit David Fifita into the
Squad

Hmmm the plot thickens lol. Where did you read it?

 

[NT_Tiger]

The WTF? player coming will be Tedesco. He's won his grand finals and wants to come home to lead the Wests Tigers.

[the_third]

@momo_amp_medo well his TPA’s would follow him so we only have to compete on salary haha

 

[Regan]

Yay!

The only player I know the Tigers are chasing at the moment is the Young second row kid that the Dogs and Penrith are also trying to sign and the Sharks are trying to retain

 

[Madge]

@Regan Has he played first grade? Briton Nikora?

or maybe Teig Wilton who hasn't played first grade yet.
