I mean no one is denying Penrith are an amazing footy team, that’s not what the argument was about. The fact that you have to go to it shows you’ve lost what we’re actually discussing though.

What did you think he would do? The Tigers poach the Fainu brothers, one is a talented half. Plus sign the Pensioner Sezer, plus the turnstile from Saints. Maybe Benji will throw on the 6 next.

I guess, if we wanted him, we would have kept him. Shit happens and we move on.

the Dogs offered Conti a top 30 deal, the guy hasn’t even played a game of SG Ball. I would have been happy to keep him however Fainu and Galvin are both far superior halves all around the same age. Galvin dominated him in the recent Aus schoolBoys championships, got player of the tournament and then captained Aus school boys.

Then under these guys we have Onitoni Large who’s a 5/8, one of the highest rated 16 year old in the country and potentially the best junior the club has ever had.

Good luck to Alex, he might end up being a good NRL player, but you can’t have 3 halves under 19 years old in your top 30 and he’s the obvious one to miss out

The worst RL journo ever in his column today, Sunday Tele, has written “which NSW SOO star is being linked to the West Tigers in a signing that would be bigger than API or Isaiah.

From the guy that gets most things wrong.

Best, To'a, Bula, Staines, and a tall big winger to replace an aging Noffa will do me.
Suddenly the backs look good.
As the Everly Brothers once sang " All I Have to Do Is Dream "

Sorry TM, I forgot about him....I was dreaming ha ha.
We were all shouting out for the club to re-sign him to a lengthy contract when he was tearing it up early in the season but then he had some Barry Crockers.
I'm still eager for him to be around for years as he is a potential future superstar.
Damm it TM, I broke my toe today when I kicked a shopping trolley wheel. I left a snail trail of blood down the aisle as I hopped to a seat.
Bloody hell it's throbbing like crazy.
It hurts more than when Mal ran over the top of me when he was at the Oxley police academy ha ha.

Hopefully you taught the shopping trolley a thing or to about respecting there elders. Hahaha

Hard to judge on last year, mostly they were all terrible at most times, but another year older and wiser, hopefully makes them more steely for the game next season.

Yep, my thoughts too.
Why do I get so confident that next years footy is going to be better only to be let down again and again. I only wish my garden veges were as resilient as us tiger supporters.
Yeh, bloody shopping trolleys. This was one of BigW's new blue plastic framed ones and the wheels protrude closer to your feet so the inevitable happened.
When I'm better, I'm going to put my steel cap boots on and go back and give that trolley a severe stomping and kicking.

Hey Vic, there has been a big write up about Alex Conti in zerotackle and by the sounds of it he is a goodin.
If the dogs want him so bad why didn't we try and trade him.

The Conti camp were dreaming asking WT for the same money that Tallyn De Silva is on.TDS is the real deal & like u said VM Conti has done nothing yet plus we have Galvin & Large who r superior to him.
