Rumours and Stuff

[Avenger]

Did anyone just see that try setup from Lomax? At wing, he’s one of the best players in the game I cannot believe we grabbed him. He is absolutely the best winger in the world and HAS to play there.

I agree with you. He also has to be our goal kicker.

Having a play with a full strength side…

1 Iongi
2 Lomax
3 Penisini
4 Gutho
5 Simmo
6 Brown
7 Moses

?? I actually think Gutho needs to just be there he’s our second best player but he’s actually the perfect 14 for the modern game…

Who am I missing?

Hodgson...

I said before we signed that guy we should have just promoted Hands.... Took 2 years

Ridiculous. But but but the guys from TCT said he was training like an immortal against SG ball
Players and that he had big muscles in the newspaper.

 

[Obscene Assassin]

To be fair he was the only tiger that gave us any grief tonight.

Would've been nice if the touchie picked up his forward passes. Ron Massey level half in a Sydney Shield level team.

[Gazzamatta]

Any word on Wilson?

Edit- Your weren’t talking to me.

I reckon we are waiting for RCG to confirm leaving before we can announce.

That first one looks good. But I think after the last few games Sivo I think will get a nice deal in the nrl somewhere.

 

[gaffer]

good news about dylan now what about penisini

 

[Tiger5150]

We have better halves than Galvin. That's why we let him go. We also have better halves than Sanders and Talagi.

Let me get this logic straight...
you are saying Parra punt their best halves as 16yo because they have a good halves currently?" Must be a ringing endorsement for your current Harol Matts guys.

 

[Tiger5150]

Look at Keary. pArRa DiDn'T wAnT hIm!!! But neither did any of the other NRL clubs. It's not like they aren't all poaching other youngsters from our back yard. Why did they all overlook him? Why didn't anyone rate Olakau'atu until he arrived at Manly? Some merkins are just late bloomers.

You realise that Galvin played Harold Matts for Parra? 3 years later he plays a full season of NRL as a 5/8, would be rookie of the year. Hardly a late bloomer.

He honestly can’t believe half the shir he posts. It’s all to get a reaction.

 

[Tiger5150]

Don't reckon it was a mistake, giving him time to develop, it's smart........Assuming that was when he was 16 in 2021. They did the same for Matt Arthur, didn't play up in Matt's at 16's either.

Interesting in 2022 at 17, he played the whole season at second row for Wests in Matt's. His tigers profile has him listed at 85kg, assuming even if he is 90kg now, imagine how light he would have been at 16 when we told him he needed time to develop.

He probably was barely 70kg and on a 6 ft frame at 16. That's dam light to be playing edge in Matt's at 16.....not that he couldn't handle it, but gee it wouId have taken a big physical toll on him. When a lot of the forwards in Matt's are at least 80kg plus and a lot 100kg plus.....it makes sense to sit him out at 16, if he was seen as an edge forward back then....

Galvin played second row U18 State of origin.

Parra was offered Jacob Liddle, that would have been a much better option. Was shocked Parra went for Hodgson.

Liddle was much younger and maybe a threat to Matty Arthur. We couldn’t have that.
