      @tigerskins said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours:

      From Zerotackle …

      Brisbane are set to confirm the signing of Wests utility Billy Walters, the son of Broncos coach Kevin.

      The Tigers are set to announce the deal in the coming days, with 7News Brisbane reporting the father-son duo will come into effect for the 2021 season.

      Walters’ arrival will be met with great optimism at Red Hill, with the 26-year-old set to add depth to the Broncos’ playmaking stocks.

      Star five-eighth Anthony Milford is facing a race against the clock to make Brisbane’s Round 1 clash after requiring surgery on a fractured hand, with Walters set to assist in Milford’s absence.

      Walters has played 10 NRL matches since making his debut with Melbourne in 2019, moving to Concord the following season where he played eight matches.

      New coach brings plodding son to strife torn club. That will fix things.

      Bit harsh … his son has always put in for us during his short stint with us. Got injured so that was that.
      And Walters senior was never uncomplimentary about WT in his commentary role with Fox NRL.
      I wish them both best of luck.

      Here’s a clue.
      Put him in any of the current NRL top six teams … and you would want him back.

      @GNR4LIFE said in Gag order required for Hagipantelis and Pascoe:

      The Chairman is a clown. 3 times in 12 months he’s stuck his nose into contract negotiations. Twice he’s come out mid-contract negotiation with 2 marquee players, and run his mouth. Not saying he cost us those players, but he made the club look amateurish. And he still can’t help himself discussing James Roberts. He’s a moron. As for Pascoe, I’ve shared emails with him, he seems like a genuinely decent guy, but take pride in your appearance man. If not for your sake, the clubs.

      Very ordinary comment.
      Time to give yourself a nice little uppercut.
      If you’re so gun ho … go and tell them personally or is that too far from your keyboard.

      Can you guys “please” get this topic off this thread please. Happy for you to carry on with your thoughts at a heading that I can ignore.
      But this is not the place to have 3+ pages of ramblings about an unrelated topic.

      By the way most of us have some firsthand knowledge (either a a child or an adult) about this … so don’t kid yourselves you have the market cornered about what’s right and what’s wrong about it.

      @GNR4LIFE said in How good is Stefano?:

      Jury is still out for me. I feel like if he was really that good, he’d be a bigger part of the Eels side this year. There’s so much expectation on him that he’ll be labeled a plodder by the halfway point of next season. Mark my words.

      Oh really … here we go … just can’t wait to write people off.
      Sign a mature forward … a plodder.
      Sign young well qualified forward with potential … a plodder.
      Release a forward in mid development like Siro or Paseka and they turn out good … it’s crap recruitment or we have crap coach time.
      Just can’t win with some on here.

    • RE: Never been so proud

      We need aggression and want to see players hurting after a loss. We were hitting hard right to the last seconds of this game and that’s passion that Madge would be looking for.
      When that becomes part of our DNA then, and only then, can we say that we have a football side that are capable of competing at the high end of this competition.
      That will come … just enjoy watching this development phase.

      Tigers have signed Tom Amone effective immediately.

      If we were interested in him, and he was uncontracted, why didn’t we have him on a train and trial deal?

      Why have Eden Smith training and trialling well only to overlook him for someone we haven’t seen first hand.

      All for a position we have more cover than anywhere else on the field. Doesn’t make a lot of sense

      We all know Maguire likes his big men to lead from the front
      Loosing Blore and Musgrove already has lightened us up front
      Maguire doesn’t want to take any chances
      He wants our pack to dominate
      If Amone does come then we have alot of big forwards to cover suspension and Injury
      Question is now with two spots left, what position and who are we looking at
      I still like Fitzgibbon
      A bit raw but I think we’ll worth the gamble
      Last spot can wait a little

      I don’t see how signing someone as our 7th-8th top prop helps us too much. Depth but highly unlikely to see much first grade.

      And we still only have 3 fit back rowers

      You play him out of back row … he is a barnstorming wrecking ball type forward. It’s something we need more of and I’m all for it … if in fact true?

      What do you guys think about Twal in the 13 …many have said he isnt a lock…
      I wonder how Joe O would go as a lock…any thoughts guys…

      I agree … but they continue to see something there.
      Not sure about Joe O … too early to see how he goes at prop let alone if he has the skill set to be a successful lock forward.

      Also for me persisting with Garner as starting second rower is also a mistake. He will have to show a significant improvement on last year to convince me.

    • RE: Wests Tigers re-sign Zane Musgrove till 2024

      @formerguest said in Wests Tigers re-sign Zane Musgrove till 2024:

      An enforcer is welcome, but that action was just plain stupidity. I turned off the game as he was marched from the field.

      There is a lot if difference between scaring the opposition when sailing close to the wind and occasionally mucking it up, then comparing such to an idiotic shoulder charge that is almost guaranteed to cop a stint on the sidelines both during and post match.

      He was just about best forward on the field.
      And yes it was a careless action but I’m not getting hysterical about it.
      It’s done and dusted … but I saw a good forward out there … one I would select next to Tamou in our starting pack … when and as soon as he is available.

      Really looking forward to team announcements on Tuesday (hopefully). Madge saying he’ll pick a squad of 24 then the Magpies reserve grade squad as well will give us a great indication of who has impressed,

      What are you looking for in the team list this week mate?

      I suppose I’ll be looking to see who gets named from the group of hopefuls I watched on Saturday. Also questions I have: Mbye fullback or 6 for round 1; AJ or Talau on wing; How lethal will our centres be; Brooks and Doueihi- how does that gel; will our pack dominate and who is leading the race for our pack; where does Garner fit in…
      Mate, so many questions - but it’s exciting because if we get it right and players perform I reckon we have a very competitive team with decent depth

      I would be looking to play Mbye at 6 in round one so would like to see him spend some time there against Manly. It is hard though because Doueihi also needs a chunk of time there as well.

      Yep … same for opening round for me. We need an experienced 5/8 and it will be a good test to see if Mbye can produce something positive there. If not than Doueihi for round 2 … which will be further experiment.
      With Benji (I know it was time to let go), Reynolds and Walters not in the mix … we are really short and unstable in the halves for this season. No easy answers and very possibly lots of headaches on the cards for Madge this season.

      And we have him for 4 god damn years … off field, injury and total bonehead plays have made this contract laughable.

      One of our best forwards, good signing and you … just have no idea. If you want an aggressive forward you need to live with results such as this.

      All you need to do is go and google and read up on the playing history of some of NRL tough guys.

      @mighty-mouse said in 2021 Trials:

      Does anyone know why we didn’t just keep benji on a low money contract as backup? Do we just put it down to another standard poor management decision?

      No, I put it down to management and coach knowing the game, knowing what we need and what we don’t.

      However, basically not wanting a geriatric selfish ball hog, who wants to run the team and is not capable of doing so.

      Russell now that Marshall is gone do you see Brooks coming into his own ,and do you see the side in the eight at seasons end . Because in my view anything else is a fail

      Goanna, I don’t see anything else than t he 8 as a fail as anything can happen, multiple player injuries would not help the cause. If all things are equal I do think we can make the eight.

      With Marshall gone I do see Brooks being more comfortable leading the team around, a better pack will also help. I do think if AD is the 5/8 then Brooks will have no excuse for being dominant. If Laurie or Madden are playing 5/8 I don’t think he will go as well.

      Well I agree as far as our spine and back line is concerned … yes .
      We will struggle this year mostly because our halves, fullback and lock positions are lacking. That’s a lot of to be missing and then to be still confident that we are a top 8 contender.
      So I’m realistic and see this year again as only a stepping stone to next season. And No I don’t necessarily believe that if we miss the 8 I’d be slashing my wrists.
      I’ll be looking at solid improvements in defence and attack as a pass score.

      I thought Laurie looked very promising and Madden looked absolutely shocking.

      Madden is a bit hot and cold. Needs to eliminate dumb plays. If he does that he’ll be a handy player.

      Hadn’t seen much of him before today but he was one of our worst on ground over the course of the game.

      People have built their expectation too high about this guy.
      He was always a borderline proposition for our stating side.
      He is still on L plates.

      Can we now assume the rumour that Hastings has signed with us for 2021 is not true?

      Why? It’s been literally one day since the rumour came out. Things take time in rugby league - although I reckon it’ll be for 2022 if we get him

      It’s been longer than that hasn’t it? Maybe my memory is faulty. I haven’t seen 2021 mentioned anywhere outside the forum, and surely Wigan wouldn’t want to give up their star playmaker so close to the season kick off? For 2022 I think we’re a strong chance though.

      The rumour that we were interested has been around for a bit but someone saying we’ve actually signed him effective immediately only happened yesterday.

      10:21am Monday the 15th Feb

      Two days then. Certainly not enough for everyone to claim it’s not happening and make fun of the person who provides the rumour. Keep doing that and we’ll never get rumours on here ever… even The Pom gets it wrong sometimes

      If they say immediately then after 48hrs they are fair game.

      I read effective immediately as meaning this year… not literally on the same day. Not many rumours eventuate instantly lol

      Not everything (almost anything) you read on social media is right.

      You could go off the Wigan forum that said a week or so ago the club was concerned he wasn’t coming back this year or a couple of local socials saying he had signed immediately. Or some saying it was next year. Or a couple of journo’s saying it wasn’t happening. Pick your poison. They are all rumours. Some better than others, some possibly facts. Who knows.

      That’s a definition of a rumour … and fits well on this tread.
      Unlike whole lot of jabber some of us post on here that you have to skim through each day before you get to few that really belong on here.
