Wests Tigers linked to unwanted duo

Im a maybe on Scott, definite no to Elliot. Tool of a bloke and not that good a player IMO
 
I hope they are both coming add Woodsy for a yr with an option and maybe a Brayden Burns , and then upgrade some of our young blokes.To be coached by Madge of course

If we could just secure that X factor player (we have the money), I believe it would boost our squad no end and hopefully end our run of no semi’s?

I said in an earlier post, throw the bank at someone like Munster (a deal he can’t refuse) and off we go.

Look forward to us not being able to land these unwanted players.

Like Demps said, they'd improve our squad (sadly), but if we can't land these guys.... what hope do we have.

Surely they want to play for Wests tigers.
 
You do realise if we sign Scott and Elliott the full list of atrocities will be released by the media.
Club needs to do their due diligence. Sadly they seem to be asleep at the wheel. Must admit Elliots on the lower end but I don’t like grubs.

Don’t sign either of them. Not for minimum contract. I won’t be a member anymore and I won’t be the only one.

If they improve our team then why not...

Their crimes are small time compared to Lodge and even Packer, who's been at the club for years now and you're still supporting.

They're legit footballers.
Not doctors.
But that's the important part... they are footballers
Epitomise the word.

They aren't athletes pretending to be footballers, they are footballers.

I , for one... am for it.
Welcome to the club.

Tyga dont worry bout the media mate , they thrive on BS , if we get these blokes at the right price and they deliver on the field that’s all we can ask for

I don’t care about their football their actions indicate their professional standards are low. WT need to become a more professional organisation to repair our reputation among top line players. Keep signing jerks, they’ll keep behaving like jerks and coach after coach will get the bullet.

I kinda share the same sentiments.
Know we're sick of hearing the term but we are currently in a rebuild process and the players we recruit willl also play a major role in the vision we're trying to sell.
So while I understand we're at a standstill and urgently need some improvement, I'm a little nervous the club/coach may not be able to mitigate any further damage (to the team's culture or the club's image or brand) if there is any subsequent downfall from signing these two players.

There's a reason certain dysfunction is the only thing rooted at the club. We don't have too many players enforcing high standards and positively representing our brand.
I don't get it and it's confusing.
Seems compromise is the only option, despite the message they continually tell us about driving change.
I honestly don't know anymore as at the same time I also really don't wish for us to get the wooden spoon either.

I’d feel much better about losing if we were adding all effort players like Twal. Rather than flash in the pan boom or bust types. We need to be putting some good role models around our young group. BJ, JTJ, TPJ etc etc they ain’t gonna change the joint…

Madge: we need players with character.

Signs every player with dodgy past in NRL and ESL.

Isn’t that a form of Character?
 
I'd give Curtis Scott a crack on a similar low risk contract, similar to JTJ.
No to Elliott.
Maybe to Woods
Tariq Sims is the one we should target. Current SOO player, leader, professional. Getting him means LL can come of the bench as impact player. He is too slow laterally and unfit to be playing 80.

Elliott has minor dramas but he has problems why would you bring in a player to a young squad that has history. He’s also inferior to Luciano, Blore or Garner. He doesn’t improve us also blocks Tuilagi.

I live in the shire Scott is trouble the Storm didn’t get rid of him for no reason. I’ll leave it at that.

Bigger issue is we have to stop signing players with red flags. Makes zero sense. Both are or have been in poor form and playing like reserve graders also.

Roberts or Scott? Not too many others knocking on the door with experience. I’d say Elliot will be IF we don’t sign Woods. Though I’m not expecting us to rush these decisions immediately. We didn’t sign most of our signings last year till after Christmas. Both would require heavy atonement and rehab to be considered.

We are seriously scraping the bottom of the recruitment barrel with Scott, Elliott, Woods.
I know we suck but I’d stick with these kids and increase some of their contracts namely Laurie and Stefano before I contemplate players no one else will sign.
 
We're in a hole. We dig enough holes, we're bound to strike oil eventually, so why not take a punt, with smart contract clauses as others have mentioned.
So maybe they're grubs...I'm personally sick of being on the receiving end with no rebuttal, so at least they'll be our grubs unsettling the opposition. We got rid of Brown for disciplinary reasons, media never mentions that coz the world forgets player indiscretions once they find success.
 
Also, I'd take Woodsy back. I feel like he regretted his decision as soon as he'd made it. His last season for us was immense.
