Just heard on the news that a Australian cricketer was having trouble getting a visa , but Australian government has come out and said it can be fixed up in a day or so , they at cricket aust most have good contacts

That was Usman Khawaja, and you are right, the government said they can fix it, Indians probably delayed the process because he has Pakistani heritage

Not just at WT are clubs turning back the clock
Peachey back at Penriff
Reynolds back at Dogs
Madge back at Canberra
Walsh back at Broncos
CNK back at Warrios

Almost sounds like Madge is back as a Centre!
Sheens, if Ice and Klemmer get injured. Your UP!

The Truth is Luke has been uncomfortable for some time,
Weather that was coaching, Media or performances no one knows, I'd suggest all 3.

Sheens convinced him to stay on in 2022
Benji and the direction of the club convinced him to stay on in 2023.
They're not convincing him to stay on to save money, Weather they're right or wrong
- They want him at the Tigers...

There's been nothing but talk of him being here long term, from all 3.
No matter how any one feels about it.
(Even when Benji was in the media he was clear on his feelings about him as a player)
I'm actually surprised the Bulldogs didn't make a play for him, Gus also speaks well of him...

I'd like to see us have a better performing 7, Weather that's him - Who knows....
I have a feeling we're all about to find out though....
The chat from all parties, leads me to think he's not going anywhere

I can't see him leaving either and think he will get another multi year deal, with a much better forward pack now hopefully he has a break out year.

Having originally assumed you were intelligent enough to understand my post, especially once prompted to do so, I can now see that is not the case.
I never said the club did anything. I said the fans have been fed a narrative. I never said the egg would be on the clubs face. It will be on the faces of those who continually told the fans something completely different from what was being reported. We all know who they are.
Now if you have anymore follow up, please PM me. My intent is not to continually out you as stupid.

Sorry, I thought the narrative was that Madge had a plan! We were improving every season on his employment. Certainly on our way to a premiership in the next few seasons. Changing so many players for the better, turning us really into a force not to be messed with!
Oh and that evil Sheens came in took his job, just when he was on the eve to turn the club into a powerhouse. Damn that Sheens, damn him!! That’s the narrative I believe…

What convinced Brooks to stay(and Sheens to support him)in 2023 was a heavily back ended contract worth around a $1mill this year...he will never earn anything like that again in his life
Reckn I cld be miserabe for that!!
Really up to him now to stand and deliver...but no more loyalty BS from either party.Lets retain/release at year end based soley on his performance and contribution and nothing else

The Brooks' article yesterday on his thread had confirmation from Marshall he wants Brooks at WTs. After a discussion(s) with Marshall, Brooks wants to stay. Doueihi in his comments in that article left his options open.

You think he’ll want Brooks if he doesn’t come good?
Brooks will be praying the blokes around him manage to make him look half decent.
 
You know you're a Wests Tigers fan when you conclude that because Gus Gould knows he isn't going to the dogs he MUST be staying at the Eels.

Dead set loser mentality.

Could it bit be he simply said no thanks I prefer the Tigers offer if I'm going to leave the Eels

Gus come in third in a 3 horse race.

Facts.

Just saw this post over on the eels forum. It's off Guthos insta.
Thought I'd share as I know no one in WTF would be desperate enough to follow him on insta... even though I'm bad enough for losing brain cells reading the eels forum.

Personally think AD will blow them away this year.
Will be too good for Brooks to move one spot out if Moses comes.
Maybe shift Brooksy to centre or 14th man. 👍

It’s setup atm for a really telling year for them
both that could work wonders for us or backfire. If they fire we will win a fair few games you would think.

But can’t help with my Wests Tigers hat on where we have both AD and LB fire whilst off contract and both sign with other clubs after MM says no.
