Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Newtown]

I think we have bent backwards trying to accomodate him. We are being played and I’m surprised that Sheens and Benji are still allowing this circus to go on.

This saga is likely to continue for months. The continuing delays are not helping WT at all. The longer it continues, the more likely are Wests Tigers will be missing out on signing a decent halfback (not Moses) for 2024.

A new born baby is not easy and first child for mum and dad he is not thinking football but if the Parramatta choice was so easy it would have been done by now I think he is out the door or has at least a leg is and if Parramatta have a wonder kid number 7 they mite not need Moses after two years

On a side note, being a new dad is one of the most overlooked but simple explanations for footy player form slumps there is. Benji was noticeably worse when he had a baby but nobody ever seemed to mention that as a possible reason. The sleep deprivation is a killer. I could barely keep my eyes open in the first 3 months, can't imagine trying to play professional football.

The club knows where is stands with Moses and believe me we have well and truly moved on…..Sheens has a plan B for 2024….

I also heard Coach Sheens saying that the club has an immigration lawyer acting for them, hoping to get Bateman here by end of January.

Hope it’s not Brydens.

Hopefully plan B works out, Large and Sanders could be our halves for a decade, wouldn't that be nice to have a pair of decent halves for a long time, or is plan B Williams or Welsby, or both

I'm tired of hearing about Moses, but actually hearing nothing. Either sign or don't, but bloody hell! Just make a decision!!

This, reckon he's just wasting time milking Parra for everything he can get by making them sweat

Salary cap, if you have not used the current seasons cap allocation of funds by the time season starts,
Does That funding carry through to 2024.

Or is it taken back by the NRL,

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

Any word about when BATEMAN will arrive????

Interview on the club site with Sheens mentions Bateman having visa issues or hold ups but others have said club are working through them. Also said he has been training in England and is being kept in the loop. Should be here by the end of the month fingers crossed.

Each year’s cap is for that year only.
If you don’t spend it you lose it.

There’s always a first time for everything.

I think he’s making everybody sweat !

 

[Fainu Brothers]

So no MM then, to good to be true. Come on down George Williams!!

I seem to remember hearing or reading that no club doesn’t spend all their cap money.
Assume, where necessary,they do a bit of fancy accounting to make it all balance.

Very forthcoming about moving on from Moses, but you're more cryptic about plan B. What is it?

He’s possibly Sheens plan B but would seem highly unlikely for 23.
That looks like it may apply to Moses as well, if he were to come to us.

But most tigers fans had the premonition Moses was re-signing with the Eels anyway. Not a big shock. I was hoping for a second go at Brooks; Moses and Teddy combo but that’s life.

Wish Moses the best.

Hopefully plan B is promising.

Thanks for the update
Maybe we can go after manu or a sualii

Probably best we don't know. When these things get in the media, we screw them up.
