Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[851]

Given at the end of the season you can sign players for 2022 I would target the following players somewhat under the radar but strong.

Emre Guler, Ronaldo Mulitalo, Phoenix Crossland, Spencer Leniu, Sitili Tupiounia, Liam Martin.

We need to keep building with younger players.We have no hope with proven stars.

Liam type workaholic is what we need in our 2nd row. He’s got attitude in his game that we need. Or our Brownie back from the eels.

I don’t think we need another workhorse backrower.

Twal has it covered, Garner & LL can also cover fine. Unless we have a bigger version of those players there isn’t a point to upgrade.

We lack ball players / 2nd phase. LL can play a role in this but isn’t getting any decent ball. Our prop rotation in JA & TM is it, there isn’t a rotation - we need another 2 big boppers that can actually bend the line, quick play the balls and provide an offload. Musgrove could fit the bill but he has alot of limits.

MCK was also a spark yesterday, only speed we had over the slug machines we have on the bench previously.

Martin is more than a work horse, he runs great lines and is always backing up

Exactly!

So for next season we have
1 Doueihi (I like what I see) or sign a new fullback
2 Nofoluma or Momirovski (kicker)
3 BJ
4 Mbye or Momirovski
5 Talau
6 Doueihi or sign Sezer
7 Brooks
8 Aloiai
9 Liddle
10 Mikaele
11 Garner
12 Lucy
13 Twal
14 Simpkin
15 Musgrove
16 Blore
17 stefano

Marshall will be gone
If Reynolds plays like he did on the weekend he will be back at the Dogs which will free up money for a new Fullback or a good tall winger / kicker
I know some don't like Momirovski on the Wing but I think he would do well defending and under the High ball

On paper we have a good team
2 or 3 more strong signings (2,6 and front rower) and some belief in the team is all we need
Along with no more serious injuries to our spine
I think we are getting very close to a string of good hard wings
🤞

I look at next year and key is a 2nd rower and locking down Grant. I am ok with outside backs and if we have Sezer at 5/8 im ok with that too. Props are good for next year but think we need a top class 2nd rower

CHN is reportedly appealing his indefinite ban. If successful I wouldn’t be surprised if Madge has a go at him, quality second rower and has played under Madge for NZ.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

im not a big fan of Nofo but if Momo comes back and we play him on a wing he takes Talau's spot until we can move on Mmbye or we can play Mmbye off the bench and he can interchange with Liddle at hooker if we lose Grant. If that is the case wes can put Talau in the centres with BJ Leiluia
Maybe Douhie to 6 and maybe we buy sezer and move brooks to a running 6

Great mates with Elijah Taylor too..

 

[finnzo]

He plays left doesn’t he?

Is he? I didn’t know that. I reckon we would be a decent shot at signing him and Madge doesn’t seem to have an issue signing guys who have been in trouble before.

And it's for that reason Harawira-Neara could have been running out for the Tigers under Ivan, rather than with Nathan at Penrith, on Thursday night.

"My first year I came over he was head coach for the top grade but the next year was when he left," the 22-year-old said.

"I learnt a lot from him even from that. We had a lot of opposed sessions against the first grade side that year. Ivan is a pretty calm coach, everyone has their own demeanours.

"I wanted to stay (at Penrith) the whole time, but they were the next closest club who was interested as well as having Ivan and **Elijah Taylor there as well.**

**"He (Taylor) was a bit of a mentor for me when I first came over. He took us out for feeds here and there. I was leaning towards him if I was going anywhere."**

Did anybody else notice, big selection blunder, Harry Grant was done in about the 60 min mark but hung in there, tough little bloke, but Walters not being there killed the last 20 mins speed around the ruck.

And last week when we took grant off we started playing rubbish. Madge can’t win 😂

Can we start the second half with Walters at 9, and bring back on Grant for the final 20?
Would our 40 min to 60 min suffer too much then?

Yeah I thought the same. In the last 20 minutes passes we’re going all over the shop and you could tell he was stuffed.

Sometimes though the only way to get there is to do it. The more games he plays the easier it will get for him.

Maybe. The whole point is getting fresh legs against tired opposition but it depends on what kind of game it is, sometimes Walters might not end up getting used all game and other times he goes out and we struggle without Grant.

 

[TheDaBoss]

would they like a chris mcqueen for CHN?

Would have Benji on the bench in a heartbeat over Walters, even if he had to switch in defence.

Edit; trouble with the halftime rotation is it uses two interchanges
