Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

[Tigerm]

With the right mindset the kid is representative quality, has all the skills and is pretty good on the toe, his biggest challenge will be coping with the head noise,
Really gifted

Looks like Api becomes the GK then, until we can find a spot for one, it's really odd we haven't looked at this, seems like forever.
Doueihi is a reasonable kicker, but he won't get a start now.

 

[Das Hassler]

On Fafita...he left the Broncs to sign with GC on big $'s and contributed no more than a small handful of standout games...then backs out of going to the RESULTS and EFFORT driven chooks to settle back into his comfort zone. Any talk from him or his manager about coming to us would only be because he sees us as lo pressure battlers where he could get by on nothing more than his reputation/ potential and bludge his way through another inflated contract. No club is ever going to get a full season of effort out of him.....least of all us!

Tigers confirm new signing as Reynolds pursuit continues

The club has signed a controversial centre on a trial deal, and remain focused on signing a veteran playmaker.

While May gets to work under a short-term deal, the Tigers have also turned up the heat in their pursuit of Adam Reynolds, per News Corp. Reynolds remains off-contract beyond 2025.

Brisbane are still locked in negotiations over a one-year extension, but the Tigers have reportedly gone further, offering a longer-term and more lucrative contract to tempt the veteran halfback back to Sydney.

Not 100% sure why we are chasing him, except his great GK.

We should be trying to get an impressive kid like the rorters Hugo Savale.He will be surplus to their greedy needs as they have 2 gun young halves in Walker plus Rodwell & from all accounts have signed DCE.Hugo is a big body with a powerful kicking game which we lack.

 

[Tiger05]

Not 100% sure why we are chasing him, except his great GK.

Reynolds at 7 along with Luai at 6 could be unreal. Latu coming in as a utility or at 13 can work as well.

The only issue is we don't want to hold Latu back too much.

We have to be thinking about winning the comp and not making the 8.

To win a comp..Nice week after a shit game.. Reynolds is un likely but if Benji gos all out like I thought and hoped he would?.. A retiring player knows the value of money more than anyone esp If it’s a mil per year for 3 years

I’m with you Ted, signing veterans is not for me, he’s got sus hamstrings and groin, those little things mount up after 10-12 seasons in the top grade, if it’s a
Choice between a young gun and an old fella (even though he is a great player) I’d be taking the young fella, in the unavailability of a half in their prime. I’d love to poach one of the Raider two young stars Sanders or Strange, they’re gonna be lethal when the time comes.

 

[WA Tiger]

We got bigger fish to fry than Latu’s development .. With Tallyn onboard who’s going to control him. Not gang sign gangster Luai or his brother.. Only Reynolds can do it. Benji knows Luai’s position is not the top of the food chain he’s best at number 2 .. he needs to be reigned in as well and Reynolds can do that.. Guess who’s likely crying out for Reynolds more than anyone for this deal - prob Luai.. he knows he needs help .. If Walsh can say after all the out of control behaviour he displayed, that Reynolds is his best friend that’s saying something .. he’s the real alpha male but in a respectful way.. Reynolds is far from another old player.. him and Luai are a premiership.. Luai at 6 Reynolds 7 running the show .. Trust me he is the key to unlock the team ..Tallyns signing may help change his mind

 

[WA Tiger]

With Reynolds at 7 That’s a hell of a backline.. I see no weak links at all! Not one

The irony is Madge may be the reason Reynolds jumps ship.. now that would be funny

Strange is nearly there. Dynamite.
I'd like to see Luai and Latu develop together.
Some people are forgetting that this is Luai's first year with an alien team.
His performance against Penrith was bitter sweet for him. He showed what he can do.
What Luai needs is a spine that doesn't change. The more he plays in a settled team, the better he'll lead the team, and the team as a whole will play better.
I know, it's Einstein suff, but so true for any leader

Must be trying to win the comp next year to try in an effort to get Luai to activate his extension and get Api to stay.

Reynold's loves Madge

Reynold's loves Madge

Maybe. My starting point for anything (in this game) is not believing .. I go from there

& not just Madge but the whole thing at the Broncos because of Madge ..maybe

 

[Tigerm]

Never heard of him, but another player who has been found not guilty, there seems to be a pattern that all players should maybe pay attention to.
Doesn't say where he's going though?
Hopefully we don't become the club for second chances.
