Watchful Tigers keen to snare Blair

[Zaibatsu]

I would love to sign him, provided we don't spend way out of the ballpark for him… Having 2 internationals in our pack would be some serious progression from a couple of seasons ago!

jono10 Are you serious or just trying to stir the pot beacause if you are serious you have no idea my friend. :bash Why on earth would you get rid of Lui who is developing into a great halfback and also woods who has come back from a year out with injury and is a fantastic prospect and future foward leader. :wtf

At $500000 a season he is massive overs . What he plays 60-70 minutes a week. We could get a very good player for that money . How about a goal kicking winger . And if we pay that much who will we lose . Some of out outstanding juniors talent max amount i would pay is about $300000 How could you pay Adam Blair more than you pay Chris Lawrence . His management is on something Seriously

 

[Centaur]

Fifita Blair.

Laughable.

 

[Granto87]

I would rather Laffranchi back

 

[you_know_who]

Where would he play and whos spot will he take, do we really need another forward???? I have a feling we need someone that could kick goals as i believe this may cost us big time in the semis when it gets down to the nitty gritty. The goal benji missed from of of the trys on saturday night was a sitter and really ay kicker n 1st grade should have kicked that goal.

Agreed 1000%…If we can snag him for $300k...yes...otherwise...let Souffs have him for $500k...and that still wouldn't help them...lol...Ah Rusty....I love it when they show him on TV and Souffs loose!...

I really don't want broigus but robert lui is actually crap and aaron woods can't hold onto the ball. I still don't understand why he is in the starting side 3 weeks in a row?

Your kiddin aren't you Sure you don't know Blair's management team ??

 

[Spartan117]

Jono10 - Your funny mate…

Firstly what's "broigus"???

Lui and Woods are 21 and 19 respectively - The both on the way to being stars of our team and Game for a few years to come.

There are a few boys that will be moved on before these 2.

Um, Lui is leading the club with tackle breaks this year. considering he has been in our top 5 performers each week, I have no idea what you are watching?

Woods has only made 1 error and 2 missed tackles in his 2 games. Pretty good showing for a 20 year old who could easily be carving it up in th 20's… Dally M Rookie of the Year in Waiting!!! (i hope Henry busts a knee cap)

 

[batboy]

Watto….

 

[BeanStew55]

Thanks mate and broigus is an argument, look i have no doubt that they will develop in years to come but however i would like to see curtis sironen in first grade what do u reckon about him? Is he good?

 

[851]

Is Ryan off contract too,would love Blair,but not at the expense of Fafita or Woods,maybe Sheens is trying to get inside Fafita's head,and this is only a smoke screen to make him realise his potential.
$500k is way too much though,unless he is a 90% goal kicker as well.

 

[Balmain_Bug]

Fifita Blair.

Laughable.

I probably should have expanded upon that,
:laughing:

In the long term Fifita will be better. He is an absolute gun. But obviously Adam Blair has it all over Fifita today.

It would be great to have him but not at $500k that is laughable. His management is still living in the land of inflated salaries. $350k MAX I reckon.

We have a lot of players in our top 30 who make less than $100k a year and several who make less than $60k a year.

I have no doubt Wests will not renew contracts of the fringe guys.

If Blair comes on board and can emulate the feats of his cousins Cameron and Chris Blair (The Killer B's) at Wests in the late 80's, I have no doubt we will be a massive showing in the semis .

 

[Eye_Of_Wests_Tigers]

From nrlstats.com
Adam Blair: Vs Manly 55mins 16runs for (124m) 14 tackles 1 Error
Vs Titans 62mins 9 runs for (60m) 25 Tackles 1 Penalty conc

Not sure those stats are really worth 500G, he has the experience and has played in plenty of big games and will help our pack immensely but his stats aren't appealing at all really?

 

[Tiger_Watto]

Well said Bug…

Dont remember Chris Blair?

 

[happy_tiger]

The reason they are asking so much is that he will be the biggest name forward off contract . Look at what happened when Asotasi came off contract a few years ago and joined Rabbits same situation . Got himself ridiculous money as well
