Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Pffft $10 million COE? Money must be tight for Uncle Nick.😆

$10 million on a COE is no biggie, but $25 million a year on players is 🤔

Usually there is an unwritten law that the club holding the current contract gets first media release. So maybe once Parra make a media release we will than make ours.

You’re right that is the normal course of events but I wouldn’t be surprised if this was different. There seems to be real animosity between the clubs perhaps made worse by Mark O’Neil’s involvement with Parramatta after his sacking by WT.

[Tigerstigerstigers]

is Brodie Croft Plan B?

 

[LUPO]

Just heard T Mannah on SEN saying that he regularly catches up with Robbie who told him that he was confident in MM returning to the Tigers (for what it’s worth)

 

[WT2019]

is Brodie Croft Plan B?

I certainly hope NOT

 

[Newtown]

So nothing on the Mose front?

But the Pom said.............................

After 10 weeks of 2023 I am guessing players will be ringing to see if spots are available for 2024.

why’d O’Neil get punted again? Don’t think was performance based. Some drunk high jinks from memory. Was it dick in the beer? Or dropped his daks In front of people who frown upon such things.

In fairness, it's about tigers signings....

But the Pom said.............................

I don’t know how anyone thought we would hear anything today. Even if there was a meeting, and contracts were signed, there likely wouldn’t be an announcement for at least a week while things were finalised.

Can't believe people who give it to the Pom on here. He's one of the only ones who can actually bring rumours to the rumours page.

I don't for the world think Moses will actually come. But just because there was no announcement doesn't mean Poms info is wrong. People expecting there to be an instant announcement haven't been paying attention to how these things are usually done. Cooling off, club photos etc. There was never going to be a public announcement today.

Wouldn't say that long before a leak, but yes.

Also - THE_POM is just sharing what he's heard. Stop calling out anything that doesn't eventuate as if he's starting rumours, he's very obviously not an attention seeker.

 

[The_Patriot]

If they had a meeting today to sign paperwork I highly doubt it would be announced today. Proper thing to do is to let him go back to the Eels and inform them of his decision and let them create the narrative.

He has to be committed to the Eels for 23 and the Eels need to create that media report.

Tigers will jump on it when the timing is right. Only spanner in the world is if if they are pushing for 23 and need to work out trade scenarios.

Just off topic, if you're up for entertainment, switch to the Robodebt RC and watch Alan Tudge.

Four weeks before competition starts.
And if we have not used our cap before round 1 The NRL takes monies not used back of us, we dont get to save the leftovers.

Or so Ive been Led to beleive.

Nofa can go the other way.... last years finalist would be giving him 2 “promotions” then

That's pretty poor form from him, not too sure how his team mates would feel after hearing that. I'm also taking it he wasn't the biggest fan of madge either.
