Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

How much AD is paid should have more to do with his performance on the field and the value he brings to the club, and less about how much someone else is paid.

I don't disagree. But that hasn't been the case with some of his teammates now has it

If he is only 17 getting him to train full time with first grade isn’t the best idea. Sure let him train a few weeks here and there with them but a full nrl pre season at the age of 17 is a hell of a lot to ask of a young lad

Yep, that’s the strategy with the youngsters. They come in on certain days.

It's done mate. Lot's of clubs end up with dodgy contracts. We've had heaps heaps worse in my opinion.

Let's just see what happens. It's a very different team.

AD could come on. I honestly thought last year he would make the 6 spot his own and I reckon he was pretty poor. He is on a good contract as well. He'd be one of our highest paid players now.

Lee declined to comment today on sen.

Geez there’s a first time for everything.

Imagine that...

That would be unreal 🔥🔥

We could give them Nofa as a bonus.

Thank You. I'm glad you approve. There are always comments about why would you play for the Tigers as if we are bad. In my opinion why would you play anywhere else.

Have you been asleep the past 23 years? Our club is certainly in the cellar when it comes to most aspects of a football operation.
Money gets players here.

Cowboys could be in trouble 😄

If your happy living in your current house and someone offers you 25% over the odds you probably say thanks but no thanks. On the other hand if your offered 50% or more you say..here are the keys. I think that’s where Moses is and I think Parra will get close enough to any other offer for him to say..thanks but no thanks

Each to their own but it would take more than a 50% over market value for me to say yes.

That’s a pretty sad list. Couldn’t find more than 2 or 3 that I’d want.

We should pin that image and check in on it throughout the season.
Imagine it turns out accurate lol…

Also the Dragons

What’s ironic about that zero tackle article is that Jack Blyth, the author of it, is widely known on Twitter for his intense criticisms of Wests Tigers that he will take any chance he can get.

Absolutely ran us into the ground last season, yet here is he claiming that 5 of the players we let go are the best signings for other clubs. It’s laughable when you understand the context behind it.

He is also rating Klemmer above Papali’i and Koroisau who is widely regarded as the games premier hooker.

What a noob.

He was the Forums pin-up boy, especially with the anti Brooks brigade, then Hastings got the mantle. They were both overrated , but the sheep got on board, and the media feed off the sheep.
Brooks wasn't great, but neither were these two. That's why the club tried to buy a good half'.
This has been gone over more times then the global warming debate.

I would disagree with zero tackle, I have Api at 1 and Ice at 2 in our most important signing list, that could change if we pull off a miracle and get Moses

I don't think you can compare the NRL to a normal work place.

Whilst I acknowledge your point, there are differences but it’s still a privately owned business and many of the same rules apply.
Would love to see KPIs for all levels ( which I’m sure are in place). Then we could see what expectations the club has.
Won’t happen, but interesting for this old, company GM/ Board Member for over 20 years to speculate.
