Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

[The Silverdale Phantom]

Apparently some sprint training is required?

And kicking and passing and every other skill.

Thus the madden comparison. He can go on meet the sloth!

He was bought as a first or second reserve and people forget that. At the most he was looking at a couple of games on the bench or 25th man.

Hes the most un-marquee player in the comp.

But he’s had a go. A couple of our signings haven’t been putting in as I expected. He’s not one of them.

I haven’t seen the team play for about 8 weeks or so, he showed good promise in his trial form, but just sounds like he’s slow, but agree, he wasn’t never expected to carry the team.

I am baffled, as to how we have regressed to being worse than last year, with the new signings we acquired, it has to be the coaching and unfortunately many knew what the Sheenius was going to offer.

I‘m not bagging Benji until he has the reigns.

Next year

However, the Bulldogs are far from the only club that is going to chase Luai’s signature with Weidler reporting the Tigers, Dragons, Raiders and Roosters will have an interest.

—————

At least we are reported to show interest, tbh, if we reportedly could offer a FR $1m, we must have some serious cash available from Brooks leaving?

Get it done Scotty.

Also, the dogs are getting flogged by the pennies as we write, so not sure Gus has much more to offer than us, if he goes to the market, I think it will be about money as it’s the reason he’s going to market?
We got shit loads of it, I believe.

I agree, he has had a go, his goal kicking alone (20 in a row until St George game) often made me think that if he wasn't there, who would have been the goal kicker.

Some teams have 2 or 3 goal kickers, Tigers have had Wakeham the "most un-marquee player in the comp".

Mbye going to England, unfortunately one of worst signings, (yes, there have been worse ones) but good luck to him.

Instagram had this Muhammad Ali quote:

“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

He obviously didn’t know about the West Tigers to get into the top 8, hahaha

We looked at this bloke, looks like a good decision not to take him on.

As you know, I’ve seen enough of Benji this year to think he’s not the best candidate for Head Coach.

Only a small handful players have bought in.

I think he’s a fair budget forward in a troubled pack.

We should try and trade some of our forwards for some backs. We all knew we were top heavy.

Tupou on the wing Tm, that a bit out of left field.
I'm in Hobart atm and staying in a beautiful 1903 motel and next to my room is an really lovely Aussie Rules oval and they're training.... I've never seen so many knock ons ha ha ha.

For those who wanted Ciraldo here?

Though it does sound like he would fit right in at WT’s

We also dodged a bullet with Hodgson who went to the Eels...out for the year.

It's the Rydges Hotel. It was originally a school for the Deaf, Blind and Dumb....I fit in quiet well ha ha. It's actually really cool. I had dinner in their restaurant tonight and they gave me a steak that looked was soooo small that I asked for a second one. I'm still hungry. I'm now laying in bed stuffing my face with anything I can find in the bar fridge..cost me a small fortune.

Deck chairs on the Titanic stood a better chance.

It doesn’t matter who we select these days, they pretty much have to go with garbage game plans, silly interchanges, appalling communication from coaching staff, handle with their own lack of skills and avoid relying on their own team mates.

I might attend Brooksys last game to make sure he’s carried off and gone for good.

Worse still, my counsellor says that my reality is in step with the Tigers fortunes!

I guess we are all still here.

So kudos to everyone toughing it with us here on WT LU atm. True believers, everyone posting has my sincere respect.

If we have to live just to die again this season, that’s our lot in life!

I couldn’t fall off the perch with a better forum!

You forgot to say SP, all this stupidity performed with the Benny Hill music and at x4 speed ha ha ha

That too.

We can’t even look forward to winning a game anymore.

Tim makes changes and no one says much because we all know it’s going to be a mistake and the replacements are going to screw it up.

Because he’s lost the coaching plot, at this time, I’m willing to let the board, Fulton or bloody Pascoe select the side.

Or let Lee select it or let the opposing coach

Give us a chance.

Im pretty glad that Charlie is back for his own health reasons. I thought he might not play again. Amazing recovery.

Whats Tim’s excuse this week?

journo: how did you see the game tonight Tim?

Tim: we matched them for most of the first half, but it got away from us. I’ll be making a few changes, we will all work harder, it should come good in 2028.

 

[TroyJax]

That’s a weak reply.
Your missus pegs you doesn’t he?

Lol that’s brutal haha.

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

Lol that’s brutal haha.

Stryker-puss has gone away
It’s a pity but it’s true
I think he went too far one day
And bit off more than he could chew.

I miss the prick.

Have you forgotten what he does, he’s known for left field positional changes, that never seem to work?
