News Dogs turn heat up on Taaffe

[Shreksno1]

Let Averillo go, sign fuckin Blake Taaffe

Fucken nauseating

 

[Shreksno1]

I can’t believe people on here are excited about a signing like Taafe? He’s on the same level as Perham and would struggle behind this pack. We really need to be signing a replacement for Thompson first instead of another back. Kiraz and Wilson have shown we can find decent backs just looking for an opportunity

Bro chill out premiership window is still shut tight. We’re 3-4 years away from being a top 4 side, y ire going to have to wait shit isn’t happening overnight or over a year hahahahah.

Problem is which players wanna sign with us knowing that is the most likely Premiership, or even Top 4, success rate.

Maybe that’s why we’re saving the massive signings for later ?

Because I’ve been around long enough to see how all of you ‘I’ll take him’ crowd will react. Taafe really struggled last year when covering for Mitchell and he doesn’t have any outstanding attributes. Is he even an upgrade to Averillo at this point?
If he we sign him it will be Perham 2.0. If Thompson isn’t going to be re-signed a marquee prop is high priority not a backup fullback when we have Wilson & Papalii

He’s not on par with Perham, he’s about equal to Avo or slightly better since he’s a much better kicker and ball player. They both support play well, Avo has more speed which is his core strength. Neither have tackle busting ability.

Contradictory much ? Do you really think Gus and ciro don’t know that we need marwue props ????? they are coming, they aren’t high priority for this year or even next.

I’m not part of that crowd fyi. I’m a one man army

What part is contradictory? Where did I say they don’t know we need marquee props?

Ppl arent taking into consideration anyone available to talk to now has been so since last november and ppl with contracts ending after 2024 season u cant approach until this november. So its not like we can just chase anyone we want yet

 

[Sandra's Bollocks]

Taafe is solid without being flash but no way is he worse than Perham.

 

[Burto2foxxy]

Great player, but don’t think his needed.

We don’t need anymore backs.

 

[vegny]

Did ok to set up the first try tonight

 

[piggy]

We don’t need anymore backs.

he wont cost the bank and will fit im nicely at fullback...we dont hsve as much depth im the backs as people think...he is wuite good quality at a cheap price

 

[LucasFitzo]

He’s done more in 15 minutes than Perham has all year, not hard but still he has haha
He’s a very safe smart footy player, he’s got Dylan Edwards vibes for sure

 

[PaulS]

So for those carrying on about Blake , hope they watched that first half to show he is a quality First grader and will add strong value at the dogs. He is a smart player with enthusiasm and plenty of skill.

I’ve always been a fan since he emerged, wouldn’t be a bad signing at all.
