You wish I was in charge of Recruitment .... any muppet would have pissed off Fitzy last year , Pissed of Beau Ryan , not have our back up 1 as Moltzen, not signed a hamstrung wade ....not bought Flanagan, ....bought a 80 + % kicker to the club.... and a 100% fit fullback.... that is 50% of our issues solved....

You said Flanno & Daniella out as well.


I meant if we needed to we could cut them... but IMO Payto plus wade plus 100k- would cover Blair -

IMO ...At bare minimum - Wade is on 125k and payto is on 225 add a 100K cap rise and you got 450k ..... without 3rd party sponsorship....

Even if we cut Flanagan and Daniella - what they are irreplaceable....you could add Moors to that list ....

Don't know how Moors has been going in lower grades or how his relationship with Sheens is but last year he was very impressive for mine.

I hope the Club sticks by its juniors and promotes from the U20s. No one can argue the talent is not there for promotion.

True but we can't rely 100% on that- if we only promote from within we wouldn't have Ellis - Our best player for the past 2 seasons .....

nor would we have had the likes of Beau Ryan or Daniel Fitzhenry....They are Clearly in a different class...:sarcasm:

You're right but players like Ellis don't come along every day. Blair is a great player and watching him today, I like his ability to unload and create the next phase of play.

Theres an small spill about Ellis in Daily Tele, inside back page. Cant find it online.

Ellis is quoted as saying that Tim Sheens has mentioned moving him to front row. f**k Me. I've heard it all if even the mention of it is true.

Am I the only one here who doesn't want Blair at this club? He is not worth the reported money we are offering, is overrated IMO and is a grub!

Good forwards are hard to find, but "A grub" seems a bit harsh, unless you know him personally?
I am looking forward to him arriving, if he is coming, he only needs to be second to Ellis, for me.

Even the thought of him moving Ellis out of position makes me hate Sheens more every day.

LOL he hasn't even announced his official signing with the Tigers yet and already you're persecuting Sheens for moving Ellis to the front row to accommodate Blair starting in the second row? Do you own a time machine? If you had any brains you would read that the article said "Sheens has flagged this idea", meaning it isn't going to happen. FMD some people should learn to investigate and form their own opinions. There is too many supporters in the form of sheep at the Wests Tigers..

Gallen proved on Wednesday that the number on the back makes no difference.

Incidentally, Benji and Prince have also proved this, as both have always played more of a combined 5/8 / half game.

Perhaps some should consider that the traditional roles in league are becoming blurred.

This began with the disappearance of the traditional lock.

Now we have halves (1,6,7 and 9), forwards and outside backs.

The positions are largely interchangeable.

To say Ellis cane play at prop is like saying Petro cant play in the back row.
