Rumoured and Confirmed Signings and even more Crap XXI

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

I'm not usually one for rumours, but am just putting this one out there to see if anyone else has heard similar.

Not posting names....but have information from the relative of a current tiger who has indicated we are making enquiries into luring them for 2016. Interesting given I'm certain they are not off contract.

I heard from a bloke who is not related to anybody, that we signed Tedesco last week. He is usually spot on.

Oh Barry....usually I like your sarcastic snipes at rumour mongers, but in this case I'm not blowing smoke up your proverbial.
I must say, the player in question is an international and, to be precise, my source is an even closer relative to another tiger that people on this forum have suggested would be a great fit for our side.

How could somebody not be related to anybody?

You talking about Nofaulouma and Simona?

Simona.....yes. The other player though, who we are chasing, has an indirect family connection to a recent Eels captain.....

 

[strider]

recent eels captain? .... i've got no idea :lol:

 

[yy_cheng]

Hopefully it's a 2nd rower. Need to bolster up the middle row

Relative to Ray Price maybe?

 

[strider]

mannah, hayne, hindy, caylo .... I don't know if reni maitua ever figured out if he was captain or not

who's related to any of them?

Interesting stuff, danno.

Tigers with international experience are as follows (after a quick search):

Sitaleki Akuola (Tonga)
Robbie Farah (Australia)
Asipeli Fine (Tonga)
Keith Galloway (Australia)
Dene Halatau (New Zealand)
Chris Lawrence (Australia)
Joel Luani (Tonga)
Keith Lulia (Cook Islands)
Brenden Santi (Italy)
Tim Simona (Samoa)
Sauaso Sue (Samoa)
Martin Taupau (New Zealand)
James Tedesco (Italy)
Aaron Woods (Australia)

Now we can rule out Simona due to your phrasings while bringing Santi back over would be hilarious for all the wrong reasons. The list is dominated heavily by forwards which you would think the club wouldn't care too much for at this stage. Martin Taupau or Aaron Woods would be a great pick ups if that were not the case.

James Tedesco is the real gem there and is without a doubt the perfect fit for our recruitment needs but that is entering the realms of fantasy surely.

Too soon, dude

 

[84 Baby]

But here's hoping it's Brenden Santi

 

[Forty20]

Oh shit, think I know who it is now. Interesting stuff. Thanks for the tip.

 

[84 Baby]

Manoa Thompson or Jason Cayless?

 

[theicemandanno]

Seek my brethren, and you will find.

And he is on the list you supplied forty. Was really hoping someone on here had also heard something about said player.

 

[theicemandanno]

But geez, wouldn't simona be a good pick up too.

 

[Avenger]

Simona.....yes. The other player though, who we are chasing, has an indirect family connection to a recent Eels captain.....

I've had a gut feel about Simona for weeks now. Just thank me when it's confirmed.

 

[84 Baby]

As long as I can also punch your gut when he signs with Roosters

 

[hineyrulz]

Got me stumped.

How is your gut travelling these days mate????
