Mate signing quality Broncos, or any players that are playing in Qld is near impossible for our weakly resourced club. Hell any players even from Sydney/NSW that are young and quality coming through for that matter.

We need to accept our station in life and aim for the plodders and rejects we deserve.

Pull your head in and be a realist mate. Who do you think you are Uncle Nick?

RCG and Matterson in 2020?

Anyone you purchase from the Tigers is by definition not a marquee signing.

And Moses before that.

see above...

Wests Tigers’ next big call: Is Robbie Farah ready to become the general manager?

On the surface it seems ambitious to catapult a recently retired player into the role, but there are very few that have the street smarts and nous that Farah possesses.

One option that has been floated is bringing back Farah’s former teammate Mark O’Neill, who is now in charge of football operations at the Parramatta Eels.

Do you have any cheap holiday places in September you can pass onto our lads. It's been a while.

They will be starting a week earlier then your mob come next Friday.

He’ll probably rip us a new one on Friday and then knock us back.

So that will be the 2nd time this year for Dylan

Who are you kidding? The Tigers have lost heaps of marquee players. Not just Moses and Matterson, how about Tedesco, Fifita, Papenhuyzen and Addo-Carr? To be fair, those last three were high potential nobodies when they left Wests.

There was also a bloke we bought from the Roosters at the end of '78.
He only played 18 games of FG for us over 2 years, but he was a pretty good signing and helped us to win the premiership in 1981 just by his presence in our club. A true leader.

I loved Stumpy.

Now that was a good example of an experienced signing to add value and help mould the youngsters.

I'm someone who has followed the Eels through the highs and lows for 48 years Opinions are like Rsoles everyone has got one

That's like saying an administrator from lets say Coke or Pepsi publically came out and said in their opinion you shouldn't drink their sodas every day because it would be very toxic to your overall health.

This is a Rugby League fan forum, not a soft drink company, very poor analogy.

You still don't seem to get it, so I'll explain to you what I tell new moderators when they first take on the role.

You are a forum member first and foremost, then you act as a moderator when there is a rule breach and you act accordingly.

And sodas, wtf ? This ain't America. We refer to them as soft drinks, you gotta stay off those Alex Jones sites.
