Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Also don’t think it’s fair for anyone to just think it’s cause of Jacko’s personality or his presence around the club - poor kid just can’t seem to shake his demons and everyone just relates back to that

I know a few people who work within the club (not from a source perspective) and they all say how much of a gentleman and respectful dude Jacko is.... if he isn’t offered a deal it’s probably bc Sheens just doesn’t see him as the 7 to lead this team in the future nothing personal related and really don’t think it’s fair for us “supporters” to continue to tie him back to that with no real substance

Not like Bateman hasn't acted like a knobhead sometimes too. Hastings isn't acting and hasn't shied away from who he was in the past. From what I can see, the bloke has an issue with peahearts. Who doesn't?

You really are just throwing out the troll lines looking to see who you can hook, huh?

the issue is likely as simple as Hastings wants to play 7
Wests tigers are unable or do not want to accommodate that
Bateman potentially arriving at the club hasn't changed that, who cares if they both don't get along like best buddies, Hastings has however had run ins with team mates before and Bateman seems a bit different too so who knows.

Yeah, I simply don't buy Hastings being let go nor AD. You're believing a baseless forum rumour and even worse, some numpty from the DT.

Bruce Ward.

Prop we signed from Blacktown NSW Cup.

Turns 24 next year so not really young.

Just about the right age as far as physical development, question now is can he play ?
Or just look buffed !

Who's this young fella .. ?? From the first day back at training with Sheenius and Benji.

They call me Bruce.

I have nothing to add on Hastings but I can tell you the Brooks deal is done and will be announced by COB today. I stake my reputation on it.

Starting to get late in the day mate, are you sure?

I see but when it was about Brooks to Newcastle 2022 or 2023 it was all believable ! right ...

At least he's better than Brooks

 

[WT2K]

7. Flanno

6. Brooks

or

Brooks also goes to Newcastle 2023

7. Flanno

6. Douhie

Maybe Hastings to the Raiders to link up with Madge

 

[WesternSuburbsBoy]

Wests Tigers Loose Hastings and Retain Brooks = Epic Fail

How is this club so stupid??

@batboy & @pawsandclaws1 have left the forum

3 hours to go. We do grant extensions ?

Meanwhile has anyone else heard the rumour that Benji is coming back for one more
Season ?

To be fair to Tom not much gets done on a Friday arvo so I reckon give him an extension til Monday.

They actually came out and said they want him.
Like most of our supporters the Newcastle supporters don’t want him either.

 

[TigerGene]

They are not top 8 halves.

Eh keep him for sure. He won't be a top 8 Halfback though. So not sure where his position is

Come to think of it I’m not sure that all three are halves at all!!

 

[TigerGene]

I know many people were against Hastings before he came, but i guessing he proved many wrong with hits guts and effort each time he put the jersey on.
We need more players like him in the team, even if hes not playing in the halves, surely they can fit him in somewhere.

Been a good metal singer for a long, long time - we’ll respect in the metal community…

On a football forum - no

Even if Brooks is done, it won’t be announced until we sign someone - would be media suicide if they let him go with no good news

Metal is one music genre that flew right by me. I'm stuck in the 60s and 70s I'm afraid. But if the guy is a quality artist he has my respect for that.

Ben Houston

I'm sure he will be a great signing for us, much like John Grant and Triston Reilly.
