Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[BxTom]

It might not be so bad, good excuse for a club to get rid of a player.

What if it's one of ours?

 

[Kilkenny]

Maybe someone like Momirovski wouldn't be a bad swap. Plenty of potential in him & likely to improve our 13 straight up.

He’s only had a couple of starts for the West Tigers this season and has been languishing in Canterbury Cup. Not sure he would offer any more than what we have such as Naden or Matheson Johns.

 

[Kilkenny]

I like your line of thinking although if they threw ollie clark in i wouldnt say no as our depth has suffered in reggies

I just think our season is basically over even if there remains some faint hope of still sneaking into the eight.

Releasing DWZ, perhaps James Maloney, one of two others early along with three or four who will not be resigned allows us the opportunity to recruit some quality with upside. Whether they are established NRL players or younger players from some of the better sides looking for there opportunity is the way to go. Ivan Cleary could NOT be so brain dead that he would even contemplate bringing one of the three mentioned has beens.

 

[Das Hassler]

If the Tigers want him so bad, where do they play him????

We need backs so if a swap it should be for a back. I am hoping Masters comes into the conversation.

Marsters won't come unless he gets to kick

 

[franklin2323]

They would’ve had to communicate the offer to the Panthers, once that was done it could’ve easily been our side that leaked it.

Another option is the tigers leaking to gauge the reaction of those players.

For DWZ to go over someome drops out. That someone would be worth the swap

 

[kinghippo]

I feel the whole DWZ situation is about greed.
I think his manager talked him into asking for a release saying that after his international success he deserves to be playing fullback and making more $$$
He probably sold him the “I have clubs kicking the door down to sign you” bit and DWZ fell for it. The scandal and new coach just gave him an easier out.
Now that he has started the year poorly and acted like a sooky baby, it doesn’t look like anyone is willing to pay big dollars for him and he is probably feeling pretty stupid.

 

[kinghippo]

The tigers would be desperate to get rid of a bunch of crap players,
Packer, Mautilinio, Taylor, McQueen and Lawrence. Will all be on contracts far bigger than they are worth.
Throw Reynolds into that as well, they must be desperate but we certainly don’t need any of their crap.

How many of those players were bought in by Cleary? That is the biggest concern, isn't it?

 

[herbert henry1908]

This is a guy it might be worth having a look at. Try scoring machine in super league, he’s fairly tall and he’s fast. He’s not young, but not too old. 28.

 

[Big Mick]

Get the Dogs on the phone to do a 3 way trade.

Matulino to the Dogs
DWZ and MWZ to the Tigers
Rhyse Martin to the Panthers

Then promote Kenny to the FT squad.

If we get rid of Maloney before June 30...look to bring in Scott Drinkwater.

[Panfa]

Can we swap zelezniak for watkins

Make it happen Dave’s mate

 

[unKwn]

cowboys have signed up drinkwater, well done Dave’s mate you’re making lots of changes i see!

 

[unKwn]

for a team that’s supposedly “making a lot of changes before june 30”, we’ve done absolutely f**k all

 

[tripster]

We need to add a player with real speed over 40 metres to our team. Someone who can create a break with their acceleration. Given DWZ seems likely to be leaving the most likely position for that player is wing. However ideally they could play anywhere in the backs. Is there anyone on the market that fits that bill? How long is Xerri contracted for?

We are also one quality front rower short.

He’s just back from a knee reco and Leeds are releasing him, the same Leeds that are running second last, can we think back to Whare and how he came back from the same injury

Fair enough, but looking to England could be worth a try. Ricky Stuart has uncovered a few gems.

Bummer. Where’d you hear this?

Who said we are making a lot of changes before June 30.
