Rumours and Stuff

I never shit canned him. I’ve been banging on for a decent 9 since Mahoney left. I’m very happy with the signing.

Until his first missed tackle

 

[Eelogical]

Always said Jim and Mon were awesome recruiters. Never doubted them.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

We won't know if he's good until he's about 22

he's currently 20

He's hit his milestones very early. It's a good sign, but I agree, he's not a first grader yet.

Our premiership window 2027 and 2028?

Then they want to much money and go elsewhere..

That will about see me through to a placement in an AVEO complex.

I was “relieved” after everyone jumped on the bandwagon this weekend they decided TDS is in fact shit.

Is anyone actually happy? Or do you all think he is a turd signing?

Like any signing it depends on the $. At 650 I would think it’s a poor signing. At 300 then probably decent

I’d aim for Shibasaki (sp?) next. He is basically playing for free at the Broncos who have salary cap concerns next year. He goes ok and wouldn’t cost a lot.

 

[Eelogical]

Swap deal?

We already have TDS without the need for a swap.

They will need to swap someone else for Dropgood now...

No wonder we aren't going anywhere. All we're doing is buying and swapping players from the Spoonbowl loser club.

Where did u get that?

Aren't they a bit of a rip off? Don't they take all your profit at the end?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I just hope we didn't break the bank to get this bloke, because paying overs aren't good and we should continue to sign blokes nobody wants it's what the smart clubs do.

I'd suggest we are paying overs for quite a few merkins right now, which is why we've only won five games.

Clickbait. We get excited when we are awarded a six again.

Yes and no. The roster turnover has been fairly rapid under JR. We are still a few astute signings short of going anywhere but I’m loving the investment in youth. Hopefully short term pain for long term gain.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Hmmm

So you've stopped sooking over not signing him?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

We also got JDB because the Dragons didn't want him.

Yeah getting into bidding wars is a much better way to get value out of your salary cap.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

He’ll probably tell us now he’s the best young dummy half in the comp.

I already said that about him. It doesn't mean we haven't paid overs.

No one is denying what you are saying but you are ignoring the obvious as per Pou.

I think you just like being a complete merkin to everyone about everything.

you are one special daffy bastard.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yeah you're right he is 19 of course he should have proved himself in the nrl by now!!!
I think cam smith and harry grant played 2 nrl games at the same age.

TDS has played 22 NRL games. By the same age (20 years, 70 days), Smith had played 23 games and Grant zero.
