Siebs really does not rate Simpkin at all does he.

Don't think he is a Simpkin replacement. He's GCT's replacement.

Club genuinely has zero clue when it comes to recruitment

I thought Taukeiaho was one of our best players this year, and Jazz was also good.
Both arrivals greeted with scorn by many Silvertails, as I recall.
And busted Talau signed from wooden spoon club Tigers (groan) turned out so good that now fans are upset we aren't keeping him!

We will see.

So how much did we sign him on? Seems you know more than the rest of us. Any time we’ve signed 1 of these 30+ year olds like Lodge, TKO, Brown etc it’s been on cheap or minimum wage deals. Why would this be different?

I have no idea how much but two years is over kill even on minimum if someone else was giving him two years I would have wished him luck. Other than TKO this season those over 30's have offered very little imo.

If we wanted him as depth one year should have been max

I'm not keen on picking up ZDC but some of this 'clubs a joke, laughing stock, world is ending' narrative is a bit over the top in my view.

Yep we have lost 2 back up hookers and you need some depth players. FMD. We arent going to buy a young hooker when we have the bloke in reggies and young large coming through. Clearly some dont understand how a salary cap works. ZDC is no star but has been pretty handy for the rorters.

ROOSTER SET TO JOIN MANLY
By Tyson Jackson

Manly have moved quickly to replace departing hooker Jazz Tevaga, with the Northern Beaches club expected to offer Roosters utility Zach Dockar-Clay a two-year deal by the end of this week.

Dockar-Clay played 16 games for the Roosters this year, but has struggled for regular game time after the club’s round 21 loss to the Storm.

The 30-year-old is expected to either start at hooker for Manly or play as a utility off the bench, with Dockar-Clay no stranger to the halves either.

Tevaga played his last game for Manly just days ago before heading to the Super League to join Wakefield Trinity.

I just vomited in my mouth a little

Its pretty nonsensical to me. We seem to have a few agenda driven posters that simply cannot tell the difference between fact and media driven fiction.

I’m really sorry , you’ll have to adjust your post , it just doesn’t fit the current narrative.

“We signed those plodders TKO & Jazz and they were ****ing hopeless, both greeted by scorn by ST, and RIGHTLY SO, they were absolute & utter ****.

And we signed that busted Talau from the Spooners and what a waste of money he’s been , good riddance to the lazy little prick.”

There , that’s much better .

TKO has been great.
Jazz has been average.
TT2 has been good whenever he makes it to the field, but is injury-prone.

I was obviously taking the piss.

TKO has been brilliant , Jazz was great ( until he signed with SL then he dropped his intensity ), TT2 has been great but think he wants bigger dollars and a starting spot which the club can’t offer.

The drama queens need something to complain about now that our season is over 😂
