Staines will link up with Wests Tigers in early November on a one-year deal.
Staines scores his team's final try in the 2022 Grand Final win over Eels
The 22-year-old burst onto the scene in 2020, scoring four tries on debut. He increased that tally to 23 tries from 38 appearances across three seasons, including a try in the Panthersā grand final win over the Eels.
Staines became somewhat of a cult figure at the foot of the mountains after crossing for six tries in his first two NRL games, earning the nickname the āForbes Ferrariā.

Staines says heās looking forward to a new start under coach Tim Sheens.
āThe club has a new coaching staff, incredible facilities, some great new signings, and a strong junior nursery, so Iām really excited to be a part this club.ā
Sheens says Staines is a player he looks forward to working with.
āCharlie has shown what he is capable of,ā said Sheens.
āLike most of our squad, heās young and still learning.
Wests Tigers CEO Justin Pascoe says Staines is a welcome addition.
āWe are delighted to have Charlie join the Wests Tigers," said Pascoe.
āI would also like to thank Tyrone for his efforts.
I personally believe he would defend better in the middle with less agility required as to on the edge. If he spends the off-season with Twal working on his defence heāll make a good lock.
Now for brooks to go and it'll be a great offseason

I'd say it's because we agreed to take him at full freight for 2023 and will weigh up his value moving forward into 2024 after that. He is reportedly on $500k. This was a story a few months ago.

I think we need to play the game smarter. I think Staines for 1 year is smart. These guys need to prove themselves to earn upgraded contracts. The problem is if they do perform we'll have to pay up because they can start negotiating straight away.
Staines is a good signing because he is probably our best outside back. He is probably also one of the highest paid.
