Rumours and Stuff

[Poupou Escobar]

By all accounts, yes.

I think he is a little over rated and can be shit under the high ball. $600k for a winger I would rather Suliasi Vunivalu or if we had a completely well balanced team, the Fox.

$600k you are stepping into Semi territory and Oats ain't that by a long shot.

Radradra is worth a million, which is why he's not playing in the NRL.

 

[TheRam]

If he was interested in a challenge he wouldn't have spent his entire career at Melbourne.

I agree, hence what I wrote.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Just face it TheRam, we are not going to get the best coach unless we are willing to spend the most money, and that's not just on his salary, but on all the shit that the best coaches want for their setup.

Given we have half a dozen top 17 players out, that means we would have a third of our team made up of reserve graders right now. So instead of losing half our games on penalty goals we would’ve been flogged by 30 points instead.

And if he got injured they’d be a different team. Injuries change everything.

Team in 2nd has far more out.

Plus most the ones we have out wont improve us a lot.

Auvau,Evans,T rex arent mind blowing better then guys in there.
Mannah and Hayne help and same goes for Kaysa but again its not huge.

Brown yes.

 

[TheRam]

Dont get me wrong he can play, but is he what we need???

Yes I think so. He has everything you want in a frontrower and will only get better. Why not him? Look at some other guys that we or other teams have signed. Low life acts just like hes or worse. They just weren't filmed.

Like I have said here before, imagine if we had footage of what Ma'u or Packer had done for example? The outrage would of been combustible. As long as he is a good person from here on in and pays his victims what the courts decide in the end, then he is like every other former arsehole. He deserves the chance to move on and rebuild his life.

Id dont see Nathan Cleary leaving Penrith

And Ivan will be offered an extension soon. I still would like to see Tigers end of season position. Done well ut its round 10. Plenty of time to choke

 

[TheRam]

Radradra is worth a million, which is why he's not playing in the NRL.

I meant in the NRL, otherwise he would be still playing in the NRL.

Still walking into rakes I see Pou.

Do the Tigers spend the most money?

 

[Gary Gutful]

If he was interested in a challenge he wouldn't have spent his entire career at Melbourne.

He embraced the challenge of coaching NSW and failed.

After Cameron Smith retires I suspect we'll find out his influence off the field was arguably just as big as his influence on the field.

Without his security blanket Bellamy comes back to the pack.

 

[Gary Gutful]

We were talking about Bellamy.

Love your new Avatar Hindy111. Big ups to you my friend.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Well we know his success wasn't down to Pooper Plonk

 

[Gary Gutful]

Hindy has a new name?

 

[TheRam]

We were talking about Bellamy.

I know, but like I said, I don't think Bellamy is a real option. But Cleary is and the Tigers are vulnerable to a good poach.

 

[TheRam]

Hindy has a new name?

What you talkin about Willis?

 

[Gary Gutful]

What you talkin about Willis?

Nicely changed!

That can be our little secret.

That is why I think we should wait for both Cleary's to be available, which is in 2020, and pounce with a mega offer for both of them. I have mentioned this before and feel this would be the making of a new era for Parra. The rumour though is that the Roosters and Politis are scheming just that. Like I said successful clubs do the seemingly impossible and the losers make endless excuses. Lets see just what happens.

But if the Roosters do sign them, watch all the apologist start bleating on that.....cut and paste endless excuse here.

Ivan is under contract until 2021, Nathan is available 2020.

Which mean the only club that can wrap up that quinella is the Tigers. Given Nathan will need to decide next year, almost 2 years before Ivan is available, my money would be Panthers, Tigers or Roosters.

I hope Cleary repays the Tigers and stays coach long term. Id rather see you guys do well the the Roosters.

Nathan wont leave. Panthers are flying. Stable club going places. Would be taking a gamble. Why leave a succesfull club. People say spite but the older he gets the less he will want to play for his dad.

Its not the freakn Brady Bunch.

Imagine the dressing room if Daddy is coach. Certain divides may happen, especially if players dislike coach when things go bad. Nathan COULD be caught in middle.
Dumbest thing ive heard he wants to play for his dad.

Team in 2nd has far more out.

Whom?

Edwards 1 game
Mansour 4 games
Blake 5 games
DWZ 5 games
Cleary 7 games
Wallace 1 game
Merrin 1 game
McKendry 8 games
Leota 2 games

Total 34 games

Compared to our top 17 omissions:

Gutherson 5 games
French 3 games
Auva'a 4 games
Hayne 6 games
Pritchard 1 game
Moeroa 2 games
Takairangi 4 games
Brown 5 games
Evans 6 games
Mannah 1 game
Williams 5 games
Smith 2 games

Total 44 games

Plus most the ones we have out wont improve us a lot.

You could say that about any team. The Panthers are going better without Cleary because Maloney gets more ball. Without Blake their right edge defence is much better. The fact is they are top 17 players and without them they lose cohesion.

Gutherson, Hayne, Brown, Evans and Williams are our best attacking players and they have each missed half the season so far.
