Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Was there anything stopping the club actually starting the process for Bateman's visa before he was confirmed? Surely it wouldn't cost a fortune to get the ball rolling?

I didn't stop to read this

Ouch lol

Benji looked like he could step straight back out on to the field.
Laurie has definitely put on some size but didn’t train ,he actually walked past me and I heard him say to someone else “I’m just going to get a scan”
I think Houston may of got injured from an API tackle ,wrapped up both his arms and slammed him pretty good .

It was Ken M that hit Houston hard.

Very good tackle, jammed in from the wing and got him.

Enjoyed your info/post champion @The-moP .

Just hope Stains and Bula make it to the top side. Genuine speed in the backline is always a bonus.

Think buzz said parra this morning.

Moses set to sign a 4 year extension worth $4.5 million”.

remember both Riccio and Buzz both had L Brooks leaving too
Don't believe everything you read

Steve crichton
Kikau
Mahoney
Burton
Ciraldo
… Leniu (if he signs)

All say hello as well.

😂

You made the comment that he didn’t lose anyone.
I wasn’t talking about the players he signed.
But thanks for reminding us who he signed.

I agree, though technically Westfield SHS falls in the Parramatta Catchment. We’ve been lucky to extract as much talent as we have recently from there.

Keebra wasn't in our catchment either. Any club can partner with any school. The more the club provides the more exclusive the arrangement should be.

Mate do you know if this so call meeting is true for this week with us?

There is an article in the Perth Now called "Mitch Pitch" Brooks Tigers plea to Moses..
Good to see Brooks trying to bring Moses back as well and talking up the club and COE.

He didn’t get up too quick

You can't apply for a working visa before you have a job

Correct, defeats the purpose.
Smuggle him in 👍

Yeah fair enough, I thought they may have been able to get the ball rolling and have it conditional upon confirmation of his contract.

At 1.4 million?

Gee whiz crazycat, that is out of left field.

Correct, defeats the purpose.

I must be stupid, but if he is being stopped from entering Australia because he is not employed, what meaning is his contract with the Tigers, does it not mean he is employed by the West Tigers to play l Rugby League in Australia.

Your not stupid, he has to have the job first before applying for visa and not the other way round, thats my understanding. Just paperwork mumbo jumbo that ensures someone has a job, then again I'm prob the dumb one 🤣

Yeah, need an employer to sponsor you for a visa 😉

As I said two weeks ago in the bateman thread he should be here in 1-2 months. Wonder how the article knows he’ll be here in 2 weeks? If the visa is granted he can come on the next flight…I’m assuming they’re guessing…

Tigers should’ve planned ahead and communicated with him to let him know his visa will take time so please make a decision asap!

By way of background his last visa app would’ve been easy as compared to his most recent application with his daughter and new born. It’s not just Bateman’s visa but also his dependants.

You can Google 408 sporting visa for more info. The timelines usually are very hit and miss
