Wests Tigers' best ever signing?

[innsaneink]

Ellis & Prince for certain, but I think Hodgson has to be in contention.

Prodigal son returns home... played with a lot of ticker

 

[upthetigers]

Ellis and then I would have T May/Luai the next level down.

 

[upthetigers]

Who had the better career Ellis or S Burgess? Both fantastic players.

 

[Oldman]

I reckon a young kid from Keebra Park might have been our best signing. I forgot his name - Banshee? Bonje Jovi? Holla Marshall? It'll come to me after I take my meds!

I suspect the game plans were based around his attacking ability in 2005, He needed his teammates but he was the spark.

Shane Richardson is our best ever recruit ever.

 

[batboy]

May after 2 games 😂😂😂
Ellis was awarded our best player 3 years running
(His first 3 in the comp)

Probably wins 2012 as well if not for Injury,
Left and then won the Challenge Cup (I believe) in Super League Twice a year or 2 later

Imho it would be Ellis by a considerable distance,when he played for England against us he was usually the best forward on the field which is something you could never say about Burgess.

Shane Richardson is our best ever recruit ever.

Yeah I have to agree - to do what he has done in 18 months is nothing short of remarkable.

 

[Demps]

I think Terrell May & Jarome Luai are going to really push their claim. Both in their prime currently and at our club.

Apisai Koroisau is up there also.
He's became an outstanding club man real quick. Unfortunately it's been during a very dark time so he won't get highlighted as such, but I hope he gets to see some success this year and moving forward / till he walks away.

All time though, Ellis was a beast for us and I wish we got to see more of him. Price, as well.... the perfect half-back for us, that lead us to a grand final win.

It was Hodgo for me, closely followed by Ellis and then Prince. To early to say what will happen with Luai and May although May has been great so far.

Hodgo was great from the back and made so many breaks also kicked goals and was here for 6 seasons. Prince was a big part of our gf win but left not long after.

Imagine the salary cap implications. West may have been stripped of some spoons

I think that under the circumstances we deserve to be stripped of those spoons and that we are big enough to accept the punishment, put the whole thing behind us and move on.

 

[Suzie-Q]

Hodgo, Ellis, and I expect May and Luai to be in the mix

 

[Merlot]

It has to be Braith Anasta

both of you are bankers .lol

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

maybe... if he can hold on to Galvin

 

[Spartan117]

Even if he doesn't, our next few years are brighter that with the past misfits

 

[The Chad]

Actually, in a suggestion that will melt a few brains, it seems unfair to mention Richo but completely leave Tim Sheens out of the conversation.

For however it ended, he transformed the club & won us a premiership. Then kept us more competitive than...well, any coach since.

 

[watersider]

Prince: we don't win a premiership without him.

Was close with Ellis and hodgo, but just think prince was the most vital player in getting us a premiership.

As @ The Chad said above ,Prince was basically considered washed up until he came to us

 

[ChilledChaos]

Ellis had aura! He was so tough, one of the toughest ever! So skillful, had an offload and knew how to attack! On the same level as Sam Burgess but never gets the praise he deserves!

T May in a similar mould, absolutely relentless! I have so much faith in this bloke that he could be our greatest signing ever
