TLT - Round 7 v Wests Tigers at Commbank - Annual Easter Monday Clash

[Stagger eel]

Forget Brown, I reckon Ryles has given a number of players 6 weeks (1/4 of the season) to prove their worth in adjusting to the style he wants to play and this week's droppings to reserve grade are a sign they haven't passed "the test".

It could be very exciting.

it'll be just as exciting to convice other clubs to take these idiots from us...

They don't have to.

So where does Drown play if Galvin comes this year and the Knights cant fit him in?

 

[the phantom menace]

POs for the win... trigger them, and be paid overs just to run around in NSW Cup until you're (properly) off-contract...

 

[Stagger eel]

So where does Drown play if Galvin comes this year and the Knights cant fit him in?

at the unlikelyhood of it happening I would say he may find himself at centre.

 

[Stagger eel]

They don't have to.

I suppose we got the funds available in the cap, are you suggesting we may give Carty, Wiremu or joffa an early holiday?

1. Iongi
2. JAC
3. Penisini
4. Drown
5. Lomax
6. Galvin
7. Moses

That looks OK.
Too bad the forwards won't be up to the task.

Replace a totally out of form Penisini even though I don't think he's a centre. That might just be the wake-up call they both need. After that, who knows.

 

[Gronk]

Stop teasing me with all these juicy signings.

Why would you stop there?

 

[Stagger eel]

our best player last week was a bloke playing his first game back from ACL, I think we're doing him a disservice personally.

 

[Stagger eel]

Why would you stop there?

because filling 3 or 4 spots by June 30 could be too big an ask for our idiots in charge maybe?

Sure, but if there were suitable players available...

There are always injuries so Bailey would get a run somewhere. And the pressure on Will may improve his game (as might a stint in Reggies).

And replace Brown with Bailey in my 1-7 above for 2026 and it still looks good.

 

[Stagger eel]

there wouldn't be suitable players available at that time of the year as injuries and rep duties are hit by a number of clubs and they would need to dig deep into their squad, you would also be allowed to use you T&T and Dev squad members at that time as well.

if shit was to go down it would have to go down very soon, like the next couple of weeks.

given what we're going through right now I would be expecting improvements in all areas of our squad.

but then again..

 

[Gronk]

Galvin will be released within a month. He will then sign for us for the rest of the year and beyond. The Fogarty signing will be irrelevant.

That’s just my tip. As you are aware I’m usually correct with my legendary gut feel.

Well it's our turn, @footy_gods

 

[Stagger eel]

pfffft footy gods...who are they?

Be careful what shit you're expecting to come down. Remember we are a cursed club.

Watching porn, when they should be watching us.
