Rumours and Stuff

[parra-matters]

Tigers Fans are pissed at thier own club, now they have turned on the players, Moses could not have stayed as there was no offer anymore, what was he expected to do?
If he waited maybe other clubs sign other halfs and the half market drops in the arse and then what?
Ends up on half of what he is on now and most likely as a backup player.
Moses did what he had to do, why hate the bloke for doing what is best for him considering the tigers pulled the offer why are the fans pissed at Moses?

I wonder if Cleary regrets pulling his offer considering the other two didn't hang around.

At this point in time, is reynolds better then Moses???

Maybe it was the cleanout that the Tigers needed. After all, Farrah, Woods, Tedesco, Moses, Addo-Carr are crap, right ?

Well let's face it, they didn't get the tigers to the semi's past few years. Maybe a clean out is best for all parties.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I think they are recruiting well. Moses is potentially better than Reynolds, and is already comparable. But Reynolds suits Brooks much better. Eastwood and Packer are the kind of forwards they need too, and would cost as much between them as Woods. McQueen is another quality acquisition.

 

[IFR33K]

Yeah I believe Cleary has done well to date.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I just remembered they got Matulino too.

I think the one who is hardest to replace is Tedesco. I reckon they'd have been tickled pink to keep him, even if the others shot through.....they're all replaceable.

now they have turned on the players

Also no more fakes news. Moses wasn't given an offer that he deemed appropriate. Sound familiar?

It's exactly the same as this just with more sympathy from the media:

Hypocritical to applaud Moses but think their fans are out of line.

Here is something that is hard to swallow: Of course everyone "has to do what they have to do". The players do what they do to make money, gain social status and have sex with beautiful women, not to make some fat slob on a couch happy. It's a business and most people once they make it could not really give a shit about the average joe. It's about them, not about you.

I don't blame anyone mentioned here, it is just reality. Hindmarsh and Burt are rare creatures these days.

U can't keeping stats or a log of their recruitment????

 

[Poupou Escobar]

The players and fans want the same thing though - to win footy games. That's why we support them while they're at our club and drop them like Portuguese chicken as soon as they leave.

I should do a squad succession thread for each club, but I won't. Because I'm lazy.

Or you subconsciously realise that writing it is a waste of time, because the people you are writing about "are gaining money, social status and the ability to procreate with beautiful women" (Swiftstylez, 2017) while you are mentally masturbating.

Agree, Anyone would miss Tedesco being one of the top 10 in the game.

The others are all replaceable, but certainly not crap and their supporters may suggest. Perhaps the change of scene is best for all etc.

 

[Glenneel]

He has already got Reynolds, Matalino and Macqueen. I reckon if cleary gets Packer (likely) lolohea (likely) and maybe someone like hoppa or another edge player they will have done a pretty good job of recruitment - under some pretty shit circumstances.

I think his done an excellent job, 3 hard nut forwards and 1 similar back (Reynolds) done all in about 1 month.

What has BA done so far this year, Moses and Evans? For me the jury's out on both players. We need more hard nut and bigger players in our pack so why is BA conserving the pennies? Does he know of a few good players coming onto the market next year?

BRRR *WARNING* *WARNING*

Brad Arthur is a beautiful goddess and must never be doubted or questioned!

I just like knowing what's going on with my team. I don't care what the players do
In their spare time. I don't really see them as people, I see them as cogs in a machine that exists to entertain me.

Which is incidentally how I see you.

I like this response. Very pragmatic 10/10

Well the tigers just had 2 props, a half and a fullback leave from their starting 13, so they had to be replaced !!

We haven't lost any of our top 13 players apart from Semi and we have already signed a starting half and top 17 prop from a top 4 side. Plus we are waiting on Peats decision!!

I also suspect while we were looking for a starting winger, we may have decided to back GL to step up next year.
