I hope Sironen is better than his zero line breaks and average of 64 metres in 14 ISP matches this year!
I know he's only 21 and maybe Seibold could bring out the best in him and he comes cheap,but shit some work is needed!

Doesn't sound too promising as what's being said..... yep work is needed..

Probably just a back up interchange player at this stage! Even Dean Britt plays better than that!

Very possible that Sironen is the steak knives to the Farah deal.

Australian Schoolboy in 2014
NSW u20's in 2016
2 games of NRL in 2017
First grade pedigree

We could do a lot worse

Interesting about Sironen. I've never seen him play so can't really comment but he does have a good history in making previous rep sides.

However, as Itsa says, his stats in the ISP are looking a bit average but again, stats aren't everything and I can't really comment since I haven't seen him play.

He may look like a back up player at this stage but hey, we've said the same thing about guys like Tatola, Nicholls and Graham in the past and look at how good they've been under Seibs!

He's spent three of those games in the halves and nine coming off the bench.

Those 64m and 30 tackles per game are from an average of about 50 minutes of game time.

So he's making as many metres per minute as John Sutton is in first grade

Which is literally an article about rumours so yes, it was 'rumoured.'

Just because someone says something has been rumoured, doesn't mean they're trying to claim they've come up with it themselves.

That'd be a fair comment if that was the first post from Fletch you'd ever seen.

Common sense mate.

I know you want to defend him because he kisses your ass, but that doesn't mean the rest of us will forget his MO

I hope so too itsa though he played last week for the residents team so some1 sees something in him. We continue to give cheap young fellas a shot and many young fellas know it so come to us.

After seeing his game tonight, I wouldn't mind us inquiring about Maratha Niukure for next season. I know he's off contract and for the right price, he'd be a very handy pick up.

Got through about 40 tackles, busted tackles at will with the ball in hand.

Was a star as a junior, but he'd been pretty quiet in first grade until tonight.

When Parra actually used the ball, he looked pretty damn good.

Sironens ordinary, has more of a crack then his brother though. Put Bailey in Curtis body and you’d have a regular Origin player. He’s a nsw cup signing.

Tatola was always going to play first grade, Tigers fans said this when you signed him.

If I was a betting man, I'd be putting my money on us seeing Matt McIlwrick here before long. He'd be a good pick-up - solid defensively and good service from dummy half. If Cook gets injured he would be a useful replacement.

Read it here first. Now, if only I was as good at picking the Lotto numbers #justsayin

It was doing the rounds on forums, but full credit for picking an accurate one to share.

I still think it's a shitty signing though. Great defender, but offers nothing else.

Ok, may have gone off early on the Godinet rumor.

We’ve been offered a few alternatives of which Godinet is one.

Farah will go and we definitely want someone in return that can potentially fill that safety hooker role for us. Tigers have a few options available.

Could be Godinet, McIlWrick, Sironen. Those are the names I’ve heard are being discussed.

The club is looking at these guys as well as canvassing other options from other clubs.

Whoever we get will be bargain basement.
