Even when taking into account the 100K Tigers tax, no reason we can't blow that offer away with at least 650K-700K. A Martin-IP back row would be lethal and arguably our best ever.The Bulldogs are circling Crichton as a potential fullback, while the Eels are lining up Martin, who has been in talks about a four-year extension at the Panthers.
Martin has been in negotiations with the Panthers for almost three months, but Penrith is baulking at the hard-running backrower’s asking price of just over $550,000 a season.
Panthers pair Staines and Leniu have also been linked with moves at the end of this season – and Wests Tigers are circling the pair.
Staines is expected to be part of a player swap with ex-Panther Tyrone Peachey once the grand final is over, while Leniu could be moved on because of Penrith’s tight salary cap.
The Dragons discussed making a play for Leniu, but have so far opted against it. (DT)
