Nu Brown headed to Canterbury. Not sure if O'Kane has found a club

I'm sorry dude. You have to forgive me because I've been a Tigers supporter for a long long time and we never get news like that.

I figured everyone would realize it was too good to be true.

Sorry Everyone !

It's ok Earl. I wasn't really that devistated (my attempt at humour too 😉).
I think as a long time suffering Tiger supporter as well, that my desperation for good news has lead to me being more gullible with even an inkling of news that the Tigers are improving somehow.
We all deserve some good signing news soon hopefully mate 🤞(now, I don't think it will be D.Fafita or Clarke though😉)

I can’t tell what’s real and what’s taking the piss anymore

Well this is supposedly off the WT's website BB ...

They don't even have iPap or Api listed - right on top of their game haha (or maybe they are waiting for the backflips, again haha)

 

[happy_tiger]

Correct - but it’s been spoken about for weeks here already…
There’s a lot of the same info regurgitated time and time again, to the point it seems as though people are taking the piss

1st time I'd heard about it ...even the commentators at the WC were talking about Nu playing for us ....no talk of him being released or looking for a new club

I was asking the question sorry ...I couldn't tell you who was or wasn't on the list at season's end ...it's was pretty hard to look at that list without regurgitating your last meal to be honest ....

My point is if players are being released at least the club can come out with a thankyou for your service ...especially in Nu's case ..at times in 2022 he was in our Top 3-5 players in particular games ..and probably not a bad 3rd or 4th string back up utility if Api gets picked for SOO and Simpkin /Rua not available

Surely not, not in this thread?

All good mate, Im just having a crak at the clubs marketing team, not you at all.

I thought Nu was offered a lowball contract by us and the dogs offered more (or longer) and he was going to take it. more of the dogs 6 thousand signings.

it was back in September https://www.zerotackle.com/resurgent-tiger-lands-on-rivals-radar-as-contract-talks-ramp-up-123355/

O'Kane was also mentioned as off top the dogs as he has a family relationship with Laundy (memory is a bit scratchy on that though)

Agree, we need more participation awards or recognition...."thank you for your service, and helping us win out inaugural spoon"

I think you'll find with reserve graders they leave it to their new club to announce the signing. I didn't see anything from the Titans thanking Will Smith either

 

[liltiger]

Masterminds 🥴

They are, they have put us in a corner, either let Brooks go and give Hastings what he wants, or we take Hastings and the way things are looking you'll lose Brooks anyway.

 

[gallagher]

they’re called ratchet clauses .

Pascoe spoke about this in an interview earlier this year .

He said we’d previously had 60% of players on such a clause .which crippled our salary cap .

He didn’t name him but Brooks wouldve been one of them hence why his $ keep going up .

Pascoe went on to say that we’d nearly cleared the books of such clauses .

we dont Have any elite players on long term contracts at the moment

Are you saying that last line is a good thing?

Please stop the jedi mind tricks on our spooners.

I don’t know about “elite”, but the only two that come close are our new recruits Papalii and Api.

 

[cktiger]

Idiots, who would not take the maximum they could get! The clubs error , not the player.
Some arguments are so dumb, even little kids have more sense.

Obviously never heard of Roosters players. Lol

 

[happy_tiger]

Was talking moreso about the website profiles - no shot, like I said… hard to know if the posts are genuine - I’m certain plenty aren’t.
In my experience, I’d the info or article is more than 24hrs old - it’s already here more than once

Yeah your off here for more than 24 hours and you can get 20 pages of posts ...16 of which are dribble ....then you miss the 4 pages that might contain something of note

Nu Brown headed to Canterbury. Not sure if O'Kane has found a club

O’Kane had an offer but wanted to wait until after the WC.
Maybe he should have grabbed the contract when it was offered
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

More likely to go to dolphins ?

With either Brooks or Hastings they'll get the spoon no jedi powers will be able to help them next year I reckon
