Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

So this summer we get ripped off by Moses, so who’s it gonna be next summer? Walsh, Keary?
 
Just noticed this as the latest news/update on there:

Ducks and Drakes being played.

Tigers dont want to sign Nathan Brown before Mitch as its frees up $300K for the Eels to sign Tapau and resign Moses using the extra cash. The extra TPA's the tigers are trying to obtain for Mitch isnt eventuating.

The Dogs are still in the race apparently, god knows how they are staying under the Cap for 2024. They must know something about a further increase in the cap or something, or they are prepared to let Burton leave. Bizare, there is talk now that the Dogs know they are out but are trying to make sure the Eels have to spend huge on the cap to keep him. This is becoming weird.


For the record the Dolphins have made an offer as well, dont know the figure, but Mitch dosnt want to live in Qland.
Whats the name of the guy that kept posting that Brooks was going to Newcastle and that it was a done deal and staked his reputation on it?
Maybe he's moved to the parra forum?

think it is out of us and parramatta dogs are out I reckon.
 
Geez the rugby league winds blow every which way in here sometimes. MM has probably only in the last week got finalised offers from each club, he might have made his decision already but the managers and what not will be going through each contract with a fine tooth comb making sure they've got the best deal possible.

So many i's to dot and t's to cross we won't know anything for sure for at least another week with a deal this big.

I think it's more than possible right now, but that's entirely a guess on my behalf. I reckon the delays have been to grab a bit more cash on the deal, Parramatta peaked last year whereas the Tigers are on the up. MM's best chance for a premiership is here not at the Eels, and he probably knows it.

Moses will never win an NRL premiership imo, so i hope he stays at the slimeys
 
If he is not leaving Parra, then why will it be another month or so before he makes his mind up, He is only about to use us to get more $$$$$ off Parra.

We should drop the challenge to get him,
And throw a big offer at some promising young halfback, for 2 years

plus an option of another 1 year, our choice.

 
I just assume everyone’s inside word is crap because it is, unless someone in here is Sheens or Pascoe or Lee they don’t have a clue.

Said it before they played it well doing it when most the journos are on leave.

Latestest creditable journo said eels where 3rd on the pecking list at Christmas. The internet saying parra today.

Man why he have to rush he actually has an option in his favour for 2024 too.

He reportedly only just got final offers a couple days ago. Probably hasnt even had a sit down with his management to go through the final offers yet. Then take time to speak to any other confidants before weighing the decision.
If i were him I would be waiting 'til as close to season start as possible. This would give him a chance to assess Eels recruits and next wave of juniors. Plus seek feedback about Tigers training environment and Benji's coaching nous.
 
I remember when I first joined the forum we were chasing Latrell Mitchell and I believed every word I read and rode the wave believing we had him. I learnt my lesson then not to get to hyped out about things until they are announced by the club and the best type of signing is 1 we did not expect like api and papi
