TIGERS EYE MORGAN & LOWE

I haven't seen any of Lowe so I can't really comment, but people seem to have a big wrap on him.

I also thought the headline was referring to Michael Morgan and was slightly disappointed to see it was about Ryan. He's a decent centre, but seems to have a lots of errors in him. He's also a bit of a ball hog.
I was surprised to see he's played 69 NRL games… I didn't realise he'd played that many
 
Im surprised at the love for Lowe, just a plodder to me.

Id love to have their other edge backrower, Cooper is very good every week and has been for years.

Morgan is just another fringey.

Disagree on Lowe, very good player for mine. Reminds me a lot of Aiden Guerra.

Cooper would be great but the cows have huge wraps on him, can't see then letting him go.

Morgan is garbage. I'd take any of our NYC backs over him.

Cooper is JT's minder , Lowe probably isn't as quick as Guerra but has a better motor
 
There's talk of us not re-signing Simona. If we sign Morgan in his place, we've taken two steps backwards

Timmy will stay. If not, Delouise and Naiqama centres with Richards and Nofzilla on the wings.

Just keep Simona.

Exactly! Why spend the money we need to keep Simona on signing 2 other players to replace him? It's a travesty if we can't afford to keep Simona because we are 'stuck' honouring Lawrence's big fat contract. Injury has stalled your career for sure, but do the right thing Chris and fall on your sword so WT can keep _all_ of our good young players.

Just one little problem with that scenario. He has a contract with the club for a certain time. Why should he "Fall on his sword ,"for anyone.
A players career isn't forever , for anyone .
He signed a contract to play for WT's, and has fulfilled his part of it . He was injured while fulfilling that contract, and has a legal and moral right to that contract being paid, unless the club and him agree on a payout.
He is " doing the right thing" in doing his best for the club, as he always has.
If the club doesn't want him , then pay out his contract.
Yes, he's not playing at the same level , but with the injury that he had, that would be expected.
Would you fall on your sword if you were badly injured at work?

Apologies Flip, after re-reading my last post, I realised it probably sounded like I was having a shot at you, that's not what I meant, hope it's not taken that way.

No worries, GCT, all good and I see your point. However, if I was struggling to perform at the top level because of an injury that wasn't ever going to get any better and I knew I was hampering the team because of it, I think I would have to consider other options for their sake, but that's just me, everyone is different.

Ftr, because of the physical nature of my work, I would most likely have to move aside if long term injury prevented me from performing my duties to a satisfactory standard, but there would most likely be alternative office positions available within the same organisation, I suppose - not that I would probably want them :laughing:

Lowe would be a great buy. Young, strong and skillful. I'm pretty surprised no-one has snapped him up already.

Morgan replacing Simona? That makes me want to vomit.

I hope that it is Morgan replacing Lawrence that would be much better option.

Ethan Lowe just re-signed with Cowboys

The Canadian Mounties have a motto "they always get their man". Wests Tigers is almost just the opposite. They have a very low success rate - maybe it has to do with the meagre amount of money they currently have available.
 
Lowe must be on a very modest salary after Cowboy's recent re-signings, but it certainly looks now that Tamou is leaving.

Yes cause STAFF WRITERS at RLW would know if we even made an offer…

You're suggesting that Wests Tigers weren't interested in signing Lowe?
 
No but as with most players eg Simona…. if the existing Club comes up with a reasonable offer the player more often than not stay with that Club...

I can't see how Lowe staying at the Cowboys means WT only have a megre amount available...
