The only thing Moses has over Brooks is confidence and with that comes his childish / immature personality. Occasionally his confidence will give him a few good games but overall he is a very average half and a complete wanker with huge dibs on himself. Brooks at least seems to be a good bloke and as a coach I’d rather build a team around Brooks than Moses.

Gun. Needs to be in the side from now on. He gave it to Brown and Browns a penalty milking dog.

No one wants to be paying someone to play reserve grade, but this is about something bigger. It’s about accountability of players when they sign with us, it’s about starting a stronger culture, it’s about a reputation of not being the laughing stock of the NRL. I could go on and on. We need to toughen up rather than giving in all the time. The only way Matterson goes, is if we get someone of equal or better value, otherwise enjoy reserve grade you sook.

Also, glad Matterson was told where to go when he rocked up a social gig. Who does this guy think he is. Shows we have players with passion and pride for our club.

even if Laurie comes over this year he probably will not be ready for round 1 at fb anyway. Mmbye at fb is not that bad at least for the start of the year anyway

If Laurie comes over he might be used as the no6 in round one given AD will be serving his suspension

I forgot about ADs suspension, damn. Meanwhile poor old Brent Naden can load himself with coke, get caught and be back at training early Jan.

@The_Patriot Oh man, I can’t agree with you on this one, sorry mate. Moses from what I remember had his offer on the table for some time and chose to mess around and the offer was removed. He left like a sook and he should have treated WTs better, after all Parra had no interest in developing him as a jnr and he showed no loyalty to us.

Cleary had no interest in bringing his son here either. He was just buying his time before he went back to the Panthers. Moses should never be seen near our club again. He is a selfish, grubby little terd. He was the only one out of the big 4 I wasn’t sad to see go.

MATT LODGE TO PAMFERS ???

With the loss of Tamou and now Zane Tetavano eyeing a 1.5 m 3 year deal in SL will Pamfers look to take Matt Lodge back being a local could be a good pick up for them

He’d fit into the Panthers culture perfectly.

Anyone trying to justify Foran as potential signing is absolutely kidding themselves. Can’t believe he’s even being mentioned.

Unfortunately WTs management will never be perceived to be doing anything right. I want to sign AD and JL but these clowns are holding our club to ransom. AD is still an unproven talent and he wants to start barking orders at us. Who do these clowns think we are? Oh yeah, a laughing stock. We sign these players on our terms or meet them in the middle with contract extension options. Both these players hardly have the 16 clubs racing for their signature and as a matter of fact they aren’t even wanted by their current clubs. A poorly managed club would throw everything at them just like we did with JR, Packer and Mbye. Let’s just relax and see if our management is better and broker a deal that’s in everyone’s best interest.

How in the world is Jennings back in …

Talau has a hamstring injury

He could hobble and still be better than Jennings.

Sounds like Madge isn’t sold on Liddle either.

I’d take McInnes over most 9s in the comp, the guy is the ultimate competitor.

I have no intel or anything like that, but I honestly wouldn’t be surprised to see Liddle wearing blue and white in the next year or so.

@sleeve said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours:

@JC99 said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours:

McInnes is better than Liddle and Simpkin, why do people think he would be our backup hooker? He even made the NSW squad this year, he’s no backup.

Time will tell,but i would not gamble $600,000 a year on the outcome!

I agree

$600k on essentially a utility player is crazy. If we had no hooker I’d say way not, but with our team composition, we should save the $$ on a specialist positional need.

Wingers greatest strength is speed,this diminishes with age.A certain billiant winger has just joined a club on a 4 yr contact beginning in 2022.The winger will be 26 starting the contract and 30 on his final year.The fact is it is very rare to see a top class winger at at 30.The Morris bros. being the exception and on low salaries, Mansour is bad value.

Agreed. Story on Foxsports saying the dogs have gamble $4M on two wingers… madness I tells ya…

Hopefully Ivan taught Barrett how to rebuild.

TAYLOR ON THE MOVE

Former Warriors, Panthers and Tigers forward Elijah Taylor has linked up with Manly’s feeder club Blacktown Workers.

Foxsports.com.au understands the 30-year-old trained with the Canterbury Cup team this week.

Taylor, who has represented New Zealand 11 times, was one of eight players the Wests Tigers chose not to re-sign beyond 2020.

Good clubman

Hmm. Don’t shoot me down, might be wrong, but wouldnt Taylor still he be our best lock in our team? Whos our lock, Twal? Gotta have excellent ball playing skills these days, Twal doesnt really strike me that way. Maybe we are targeting one.

The game went past ET unfortunately. He’s not a strong runner of the footy and we need more metres up the middle. He’s a good defender but you need more than just that now, especially when the rest of our pack isn’t crash hot. The 6 again rules have done him no favours either with his wrestling in the ruck.

If only he knew how to pass because i think he couldve been an alright hooker. Unfortunately his passes went over the receivers head most of the time which ruined any momentum. Defensively he was pretty good.

Apparently there’s a rumor saying Nofo has signed with the Eels.

Where is that?

The people on League Unlimited are saying that.

I wouldnt be worried by anything people are saying on there.

Its probably that imbecile MMoses starting it. Actually, nah it wouldnt be as hed be too busy blowing his own trumpet on a fake account.

@Fletch said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours:

I suspect strategic maneuvering here from Penrith. I bet they want the Tigers to take Mansour (and a fair chunk of his salary) in order to release Laurie - a package deal that’s hinging on how much Penrith can squeeze out of the Tigers. Although I’m keen to see Laurie join ASAP, I don’t hold much enthusiasm for Mansour, he seems like a good club man and is a powerful ball runner, but he has a limited skill set and is full of brain fart mistakes. Captain Brain Fart of the NRL!!

No favours for that scumbag club. We wait for Laurie for next year and sign players on our terms.

The golden club Penrith will get away without much bad publicity i’d expect. They are trying their best to screw things up tho.
