Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I used to come on here and search the pom and see if he had posted anything because his info was so spot on I wouldn’t even read anything els hahaha

Lol. "search the pom"... I did a double take there as I thought that read something else. I thought that "m" was a "r n".

?....sure !

Yeah not sure sharks have room in their top 30 they’ve just signed two players

Sezer would be good purely for his goal kicking, decent half as well and has played with Joey before and hopefully knows how to use him unlike our current halves

More likely JL needs to start putting in especially after Ricky was so keen to be rid of him.

Bloke barely sees the ball in attacking position. Lots of runs out of our own end and they’ve been effective

I do find it strange that Mbye gets calls to be dropped but JL avoids criticism for the most part. Run metres were about the same but Mbye made double the tackles.

I'm not saying you're wrong btw, I agree JL needs to get more ball. But so does Mbye.

That’s just people being bias really. Both our centres have not been given room to run at all.

This year I have yet to see a well constructed long Wests Tigers backline. Looks like Madge doesn't have much confidence in our backline.

Sezer story probably has some legs to it. Also we can move on Eisenhuth to sharks and take Stefano early from Parra perhaps or take Saab or Aitken from Dragons

Cronulla no longer interested in Eisenhuth..they have signed Nana McDonald

Source: John Morris..

Yeah, nah...

So a forward retires and they replace him with a winger?

Pretty sure they had one roster spot left, then xerri got cut, and bukuya retires so they have 3 in total.

Don't understand why they'd go for both goodwin and mcdonald though when they have a heap of talented young backs in Mulitalo, Katoa, Kennedy, Hiroti as well as Ramien, Dugan, Moylan and other kids from lower grades too. Seemes excessive when their pack is pretty one dimensional these days

Morris said the club was not moving forward with pursuing Wests Tigers middle forward Matt Eisenhuth now that their own middle stocks were replenished after an earlier injury shortage.

"It's no secret we were a bit short in the middle given Matt Prior had to move on; we were weighing up our options," Morris said.

"I've got some really good middles there at the moment; at the start of the year we had some injuries around Andrew Fifita, Braden Hamlin-Uele and Royce Hunt but now all our middles are fit one or two aren't making the side so now we're nice and healthy it's not as important to fill those spots."

Could tigers even afford to sign someone on decent money? Thompson wasn’t on heaps and he’s already been paid some of his contract so there can’t be that much money left to spend. I doubt Sezer would come over for a small contract

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.

The lack of possession killed us in the end. Grant racked up over 60 tackles as a result. If we controlled the ball and game, different story.

Take my comments with a grain of salt.

Tigers will get Saab if a swap can be arranged, apparently Billy Walters or Jock Madden. Looks like Saints need a half or 5/8.

What happened to the Pom?

Co-Vid 19, got him.

So nothing in the Seizer rumours?

 

[davey_farrell]

One of the boys on Wests Tigers Podcast know an insider at club and there has been no contact with Siezer or his management

Of the two they can take Walters.in an article some where or just guessing?

Forums make me laugh.... so many people with different sources, one can say Sezer is a confirmed deal and the other can say they’ve never talked to him.

One of the two is bound to get it right I’m sure!

Ok Mary, you can have Jennings and we'll have Saab. There's your swap.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

if we can nail down Grant to a deal the Liddle is the player with value to try and sell

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

if Grant leaves we will need Walters and Liddle to share hooking duties
