He

He only gets 6 weeks with us this season, whereas he get 7 with the Slimey Eels as they get bundled out of the finals a week later.

Yeah, but still gets paid up to November, 16% less work to do and gets to enjoy Mad Monday sooner if he comes here.

Parra (sites) still a fair chance to get bundled out of the 8 so the advantages of coming to the Wests Tigers that I have outlined above may not eventuate.

U want me to out people that give me some heads up , they would lose there jobs and a few players would be out of a team . Near going to happen. All I have done is past on what they are hearing next thing more

no good at this place mate, you wont last long

 

[hank37w]

Sounds like noone wants to come here still.

But, but, but, Benji is a recruitment magnet.

 

[diedpretty]

Doubt it, he got offered a lot more than Manly were paying him.

There was a report that Bennett was disappointed with 2 players who had committed to Dolphins but not yet signed, backflipping. Don't know who they were.

I am sure he will be able to get his brother in a few years

So is Aron woods comming?

A A Ron for any Key and Peele fans.....

 

[Tigers_Wests]

Can only hope he replicates what Dearden has been able to do since leaving the Broncos and playing with the Cowboys / Queensland Origin Side.

Hopefully without the eye gouging that the clowns at the NRL conveniently managed to overlook.

Should have been rubbed out for 5 or 6 weeks.

Amazing how the eye gouge never got another mention. It looked more deliberate than the Bulldogs player who got suspended!

One shot in particular put it beyond a doubt for me at least, and how it was overlooked is just another scandalous event that just makes you shake your head.

You learn from a young age there’s no such thing as a decoy. Be ready for the pass. Being behind the ball player is the pivotal bit or you’re just a waste of space.

I wonder how much it would cost to buy a rugby league club. Would that be enough ?

You could get 51% ownership of the Broncos for just on 50 mil but you would have to get News Ltd to sell most of their shares.

And De-nice. Classic. Cracks me up everytime i watch it

I would like to see Madden be given the Number 7 jersey for the rest of the season to prove himself as the main man going forward or not.

Like most on the Forum I believe Luke Brooks is a decent NRL player but not really a half back to lead a struggling club to glory. I think too many of us look at his huge contract value (not his fault) and then compare him to other million dollar players like Hunt, DCE, Ponga, etc.

Running 5/8 or is it too late to convert to a Centre. He is quick, can tackle and another kicking option if halves are caught with ball on the 5th. Has great lateral movement.

Just for laughs, I’d like to see him given a hit at fullback.

He’s certainly fast enough and has a good passing game to play out the back with an ability to put in the odd grubber to take pressure off the kickers.

Not going to happen, but would be interesting to see.

 

[tigerbenji]

He's is off to Newcastle for 3 years and the Knights have agree to take over his remaining WT contract in whole. They also are giving us Gagai for nothing to sweeten the deal.
How's that sound mate 😁

I f only true.

 

[Needaname]

Brown is not coming here. Talks went well but he had multiple options.
I'm guessing this opens up Brown to Manly

Hopefully this means that Paps is genuine about honouring his deal.
If Parra load up on Marty they won’t have much room for an upgraded contract for Paps.

Someone mentioned this a while back and I thought it was stupid but the more I thought about the better it sounded. The problem is Laurie suddenly put in a great performance last week and if he continues in that vein he owns that spot.

That's a big if.

 

[earl]

That's a big if.

If he keeps that up he goes to elite player level. That is why I think it's good to get Staines because he would be a great alternative if Laurie can't find form.

 

[Stevec]

Staines was initially dropped because he had too many dropped balls whether that is a trait of his or temporary blips i don't know
