Batemen, Korisau, Klemmer and Pappal’i must be starting to think of a way out of their contracts. That side is absolutely ****ed.

Happy to accommodate both Api and Papali’i but we don’t have the Roosters Salary cap, sooooo

Korisau would be the one I would target. **** Brailey off and get him. He would kill it in our side.

Tigers should get rid of sheens as head coach, scrap the plan of getting benji to take over, and get a no nonsense experienced coach like Flannagan or Hasler
They signed Bunji for 5 years, the guy with zero coaching experience. It's just too funny.

Titans have signed Kruise Leeming from Leeds for the rest of this year.
Can't say I know much about him personally, @punisher you follow SL don't you?

Benji would have to be on assistant money now, so you'd think there's opportunity still to do that.

I know Benji is sitting on the driver's seat, but the Douiehi fullback move has Sheens' smell all over it... They'll be a basket case until he's gone at least

Yes, they may be Gumb. But I'd question if a club with scruples, like ours, would want to pick up fair weathered friends like these would be if they left. I can't believe ANY of those 4 went to the Tigers to win a premiership. Even a guy like Api, who was squeezed out due to the cap, probably just went to the highest bidder.

I'd have Api in the Sharks side because he's 1000 times better than Brailey but he'd have to sacrifice $$ to come IMO.

Sharks don't pay overs for the sake of getting name player anymore. N Hynes the example.

What a waste of good recruitment

They tried the ‘no nonsense’ coach in Madge, but the players are arrogant prima donnas and are afraid of discipline and turned on him.
True, but with the experienced players they have recruited, like Koroisau, Klemmer, Papali'i and Bateman it could work now with their leadership. Hasler and Flanno are no nonsense coaches but they also have their own methods or approaches with pushing players and getting the best out of them. They also have good knowledge when it comes to seeing what fits or whats needed for the team, who to keep (including emerging players), who to let go and who to recruit

Here's the Tigers main problem. This rejected alien prototype from Star Trek.

Why the long face Justin?

Anyone else think Mooney should get on the phone and see who clubs will swap us for Connor?

They ain’t letting them go. Twal holds his own in the middle. Need someone to strengthen that for us.
I agree they wont. Twal is a slug though. Check out the replay of the first Riki try this week. He literally watches him run past him and puts in **** all effort. I don't disagree with the problem you're identifying, but Twal isn't the answer.
