Rumoured & Confirmed Signings - Part 5

[Fangs]

That is what I'd be advising

Sharks and Roosters likely come into play in 2 years too

Even be cheeky and ask Penrith for one more year at 900k.

 

[Iamback]

Don't need one if richo is there, he'll steer the ship, i wouldn't be surprised to see ol wayne rock up in a year or two

If a 60 year old and a 75 year old are the future of a club then they are in huge trouble

 

[Chins get the wins]

Huge spanner.

Pascoe was the negotiator. It was the former admin's plan to have Benji/Sheens coaching. Now that plan is meaningless.

I can't see Benji lasting more than 6 months. They'll sack him to go in a 'new direction', collect another spoon and start all over.

Luai should be smart, take 2 years with Penrith and get your pay day later.

2 years would be great for us but if Luai did his shoulder again he'd be f**ked

Yeah. Too many teams are committed to their halves to bite atm

 

[Fangs]

Exciting times for every other club besides the Tigers tbh.

I'm sure they won't go batshit crazy and sack every player. But I imagine the players themselves will be concerned. We might see a bit of action on the market.

Bets on David Nofoaluma? I predict 48 hours left at the Tigers.

Maybe the worst defender in the NRL. Off to England I'd say

His knee is completely fine.

Hes said himself in recent articles that he still has the mental side of the acl to process etc.

Thats probably the biggest and hardest part for players who suffer such an injury.

Having the confidence in the knee to do what he was before.

He was a tackle breaker... hard to tackle and dynamic.

It will take him time to get back to that.

Ive watched the game for a long time. Players generally dont just come back and hit the ground running from an acl. It takes time to build up that mental confidence in the body.

I dont disagree with you.. i think he has the skills to make a real go of centre.

But theres no doubting hes played very minimal footy there. None in the nrl... barely any in cup. Below that he was mostly wing with some hooker in the younger grades. So really not much centre at all.

Its going to take him time.

Did okay for Melbourne only 30. I think he gets picked up here.

I've done very well betting on his opposing winger and centre to score over the years

 

[The yak]

Word is Luai's manager approached another club on the weekend.

It was Dogs. He met with Laundy;s on Sunday night for dinner. Big $ even thou Gus will talk it down hes come to work with Ciraldo and Critta and Kikau bla bla bla

Given what has just happened at the Tigers, probably explains why.

I still believe the dogs are a sneaky look in here.

The WT board being sacked because Pascoe stepped in on the Luai deal and fkd it would be hilarious.

Richo at WT - that's good business - hopefully for WT they see alot of improvement now

Get Michael Clarke in there that will fix it up.

I do too.

 

[Westernised Panther]

Whilst I’m happy for the Tigers that they’ll have the likes of Richardson steadying the ship at office level (did wonders for us in ‘03), surely this must be giving Luai a bit of concern as it will take a while for things to stabilise.

I agree with @Fangs that Luai should take the safest option and stay on board with the Panthers where stability is a non-issue

Even less. He'll be out the door by now if he pulled that stunt at the Panthers

 

[Aliceinwonderland]

I do too.

You can almost see the writing on the wall. Gunna mean a huge cleanout for them Critta and Burton on huge deals to play centre. Still need an organising halfback, Love Jarome but he's not that.

Can see Kiks and Fox being let go to facilitate this huge turn over. Won't come cheap either.

 

[Luke Bowden]

The Bulldogs aren’t that stupid, surely…..

I think they could be. It just 'fits' together. Sad thing if dishlickers have another bad start to season, I can see Ciraldo being shown the door.

Things and times are getting desperate.

You've seen the list of utilities they've signed? Salmon and Mann will be playing Prop by mid season. lol
