I watch 360 every night but Braith is very guarded..He was sort of forced to discuss Munster and his meetings with Storm as Kent was carrying on like he knew more than Braith .All that came out was Storm had improved their offer to now being in the ballpark but Munster won't consider his position till after GFI don't watch Fox/360 etc, but have a question for those that do please:
Now that Sheens is back, is Braith playing nicer with us? How many players does he manage? I only know of Munster; I'm glad we've initiated the conversation, but we'd be a longshot. Wondering who else he looks after and whether, due to past incidents involving Gatorade and strapping tape, we aren't even a consideration for his clients?
Can anyone shed any light? Cheers

IMO Braith has been fine with his comments regarding the Tigers for years. Supporters have been way too sensitive when it comes to Anasta.I don't watch Fox/360 etc, but have a question for those that do please:

Yes. The $500+ in savings can be used to attract a better quality backrower or the likeTrue but he's got 1year left and do we want to pay 600 k to have him play against us?

It’s in my library. Great read for magpie old timers.You might think this post is in the wrong thread but it goes to who we should be signing. There's a book by Gary Lester called "Clouds of Dust Buckets of Blood", which is a history of the Western Suburbs Rugby League Club". In it there's a wonderfui quote from Noel Kelly in which he says:
"There wasn't one Wests player I didn't want to play with .... not one dud. I loved Wests. It is the greatest club in the world. To put a Wests jumper on was equal to wearing an Australian jumper."
Wouldn't it be great if we could say win, lose or draw, there wasn't one dud in our team. And, if we could say the players feel a great honour to play with Wests Tigers and prize the jersey highly. I said something in an earlier post about culture, or the lack of it at WT. We should be recruiting players who have these characteristics and, more important, we should be making sure our juniors are imbued with this spirit and want to play with WT above all else.
Pipedream? I hope not.
Would be wonderful if we could pull it off . 3 class forwards and a class center great .We would have to pay overs of course .Also, on the issue of player managers, wouldn't it be a better approach for Sheens or Warren, to approach one or two and say: we have x amount of dollars and are chasing a package of players. Who have you got? This way, none are coming on their own, won't be expected to be our savior. We could even list position preferences for the bigger agents, that have quite a few on their books. Wouldn't it be lovely to announce three or four players, a FRF, 1 or 2 2RF, CTR, all at once.
Why would you consider baitman with a big transfer fee he would close to $1,000,000 with transfer and salary and we all remember the way he walked away from Canberra when under contract there team was way better than these reserve graders
That's it and we have our Cap under control .complete waste to sign batemanWhy would you consider baitman with a big transfer fee he would close to $1,000,000 with transfer and salary and we all remember the way he walked away from Canberra when under contract there team was way better than these reserve graders
Totally agree, braith is a bit of an idiot but he doesn't pile on tigers as much as I thought he wouldIMO Braith has been fine with his comments regarding the Tigers for years. Supporters have been way too sensitive when it comes to Anasta.
"If there is a will, there is a way", and "the way" shall be easy, just copy/implement the Rorters/Dogs system!Imagine we went after Tedesco, Manu, Keary, Tupou, Crighton, JWH, Radley, Sualii, Walker.. how would we fit them under the cap????
Except transfer fees aren't included in the salary cap. If the reported $350k transfer fee is true then that's between the clubs. His salary (~$600k) will be the only cost included on the cap.Why would you consider baitman with a big transfer fee he would close to $1,000,000 with transfer and salary and we all remember the way he walked away from Canberra when under contract there team was way better than these reserve graders
Thats between aboutImagine we went after Tedesco, Manu, Keary, Tupou, Crighton, JWH, Radley, Sualii, Walker.. how would we fit them under the cap????
We purchase, brown paper bags from the rooooters , then all is sweet 🥴The real question is how are we going to fit Munster, Dylan Brown, and Tedesco in the salary cap 😂
