The worst bit about signing a Panthers player is getting our forum flooded with their deadshit fans

C'mon rhyno, be fair.Meh
might be able to sneak into 7th or 8th if another weak comp like this year
I agreeMeh

Will need both Cotric and Thompson to get any where need the 8 in 22. Of course 23 should be the year we start our run, with our juniors that bit older and a couple of class signingsMeh

But not for '22 surely, unless we get Api for next year?I reckon we will be using Liddle as a bargaining chip.
We have made it pretty clear over the years that the club sees Simpkins as our long term 9.
Wouldnt be surprised if Liddle makes way
Wouldn’t that be great.Maybe swap Liddle for Api next year?
I think Liddle has tons of improvement in him but we are at a point where we need players to fire right now.Wouldn’t that be great.
I like Liddell, but we need players who can improve positions, don’t we.
Agree, it sends a little message out to all players, that maybe we aren’t that bad a club, if we can sign current SOO players?I don't see them letting Api go but I hope they do. Lot of ppl saying he will be tool old etc etc and maybe so but the fact we even signed a player like Api is a big step forward for us. Don't forget it's not that long ago Mybe was playing hooker at some stages.
The too old thing is blown way out of proportion by salty Penrith fans.. He’s just come off 2 of his best years helping his side reach 2 grand finals in a row and got rep selection. He’s got plenty of good footy left in himI don't see them letting Api go but I hope they do.

Obviously we can only compare to the rumoured amounts other players are getting. In the case of the tigers you have to make a judgment on what the particular person adds to the team. Take Koroisau for example, I’d be prepared to pay him a little bit more than what most teams probably would, he’s a solid defender good in attack, can kick a ball from dummy half, he is an upgrade on what we have at this point in time, you might take off a couple of dollars cause he has had behavioural issues in the past. I’m sure it’s the same sort of process the people that matter go through a SWOT/risk analysis, if they don’t they shouldNot having a shot at you in particular, but I have always wondered how fans with not a lot of inside data, come to a dollar value of a player?
I agree it's all a risk, but if the player assists the team in getting to the finals, then nearly any amount is worth it, I trust the blokes in charge normally know what they are doing? I also agree things haven't always worked out, but that is mainly on the player, for what ever reason, imo.
