Olam's hitting is NRL standard. His defense and positioning need work. Olam, though would be the best defender in our backline. Looking at center options: Faatape Naden Toa Staines(more likely wing). Feledy just seems like another paperweight defender. He shouldn't start at Center but wing...

Trying to work out who you would sign then? Lomax? We go all out and spend 800/900k and drag him out of Parramatta's clutches to get a premadonna? Should we have gone hard for Best and done a 900k, to see him stay at the knights? Olam was a risk and Olam clearly isn't our problem in our...

Me and just in the backline. Staines -> defensive issues. Doueihi -> defensive issues. If we can't defend our line, then we SUCK! Like a pressure cooker which gets opened every 5 minutes. We need to defend to build pressure so that we get opportunities.

100% agreed, I hate this "he has demonstrated loyality". Sorry if you don't put your body on the line and aren't getting other offers (and he isn't). Then how is he showing loyality?

Is he? Really?? He never made the Rabbit's squad and was offloaded. He was a defensive liability here. While he made the team here, 2022 and 2023 we got the spoon. I really struggle to call our underperformers "first graders"/

Consistency, consistency, consistency.... We seem to not be breeding performance and most definately not breeding consistency.

I like this lineup better. Although would put Naden in for Simpkin or Kepaoa Yea, I get it. I mean Simpkin has been a reserve grade trooper. If he could only play something other then Hooker then I would be glad to get him in more often. It's just super hard carrying 2x hookers in a side...

Easts.... Worrying about the salary cap. hahahahahaha! I am sure Unkle Nick's favourite cap he calls "salary" and can reach into that cap and pull whatever he wants out of it. Seriously if you get the same money offers from Easts and PENRITH, would you take: 3x premieres with Yeo, Martin...

I saw the try and you see how Staines doesn't trust his center to stop the defender and moves in.. Moves in -> center passes to winger. Try! Everyone forgets though that Bula was sent off at that time. No Bula -> defensive line can get a little squished. Still Staines needed to trust that...

Hey, it's a one trick pony that WORKS. Staines is a player that should be performing a lot better then he is. Clearly he is a capiable winger, clearly in our team he has not performed. We need solid options in our backline which we don't have. I strongly recommend we get Center + wing pairs...

You have watched our games? Surely you jest. This whole thread is dedicated to recruitment. Yet whoever we recruit Dips in performance. We need to be seeing players improve, through being a part of the Tigers system. Instead we see first graders become reserve graders. This ISN't a...

Look at it this way, stef could play with: Papalii (not caring), and a washed up Klemmer/Bateman.. OR Liam Martin, I Yeo and Moses Leota. Plus he has a real chance of getting a premiership ring.

You may be right, but lets understand the front row. Sharks, Broncos and other teams regularly pay unders for their front row. Why? Who wants to be a Punching bag? ?? Seriously, the Sharks recruited heaps of our players. Why? no one wanted to smash into Paul Gallen. I'm Penrith, I am...

<controversial> Swap Marshall for Flanagan!

The people we want, we are not getting. I.e. Martin or Leota. Garner or Eisenhuth could be an idea. Lets face it though, who from Penrith has come here and done well? Tupou Tom Payne? (got the name wrong, old prop from ages ago..) The only player that has performed here from Penrith has been...
