Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

We have secured some solid players in this off season
Klemmer , API , Ice
these 3 make a team much different and Mitch would know it , Parra for me have missed the boat and lost players of quality , we have purchased quality and are back on the boat , top 8 for us Parra to miss it and run 9 th mosses knows which team will head north on ladder

You do realise that what we're offering Moses is the same % of the cap that Brooks is taking this season....
Still plenty of room for big money players ..

We have a few of contract at the end of the year , move them on buy one or two guns and hope that the gun kids can fill the rest

STAR'S SACRIFICE FOR FAMILY​

Alex Seyfarth has given up the opportunity of a lifetime - for his unborn child.

The rangy forward is coming off contract at the Tigers at the end of this year and is no certainty to get a new deal.

The Warriors last week offered Seyfarth a lucrative three-year deal starting in 2024.

At 24, it was a great opportunity for Seyfarth, but he knocked it back because his wife is pregnant and they want to stay near family support in Sydney when the baby is born.

There are things in life bigger than football, and the Warriors understood Seyfarth's decision.

And Bateman. He is the one that will give us some steel in the middle.

Honestly, kinda wish he had taken it because we might have been able to ship him early and create a spare spot. but good for him for putting family above advancing his career.

Giving nothing away

part of the delay is Isaac telling the club they need to offer Brooks an extended contract, Isaac wants both his players sorted.

I mentioned this 2 weeks ago… they are seeking 3+ years for Brooks

Or the old back, sack and crack

Or just grow it out. #BigBushlyfe.

Hopefully this doesn’t lead us into signing him out of guilt. If I was that guy I would signed up straight away. Get a nanny. Pretty sure he could afford one. Get the parents to come over. My wife is from Brazil (oh behave!), and we’ve had no help at all with my little Tito’s.

Bottom line - don’t resign Seyfarth. Plus, this also has me doubting how intelligent he is. What an idiot.

Its pretty funny seeing people not wanting Moses over what happened in the past. Reminds me a lot of some members who used to keep the whole "that player doesn't belong here because he has been naughty and doesn't uphold the magnificent standards of our club" vibe. Worked pretty well resulting in more than a decade of absolute mediocrity.

At the risk of going wildly off topic, I think there is a pretty big difference - there certainly is for me. I don't like how Moses left the club but I'm sensible enough to realise that it's a business and he was doing what he felt was right for him. He could have handled it better, but whatever: if he can help us win in future we'd be daft not to explore re-signing him.

Players with bad off-field records is different. It depends what the offence(s) is/are and I'm generally inclined not to care too much about young blokes doing stupid stuff when they get pissed up once in a while. But my membership money goes towards these people's wages, and I don't want to be funding - for instance - wife beaters. And actually, yes, if the price of on-field success was turning a blind eye to that sort of thing I'd rather not pay it. Call me a bleeding heart but we all have to draw a line somewhere, and that's mine.

Could backfire spectacularly if he has an ordinary year.

 

[bomberbrown]

Might also earn himself another 12 months.
Atleast he isn't going to ask for a release because he is home sick.

“Me and Brooksy speak a lot, we’re best mates,” Moses said. “We speak all the time about everything. We’ve had a few conversations, me and Brooksy. My full focus this year is on Parramatta.

“Hopefully we get something sorted before the start of the year … You see all the talk but it hasn’t really come to me, I haven’t had to think about that side of it yet.”

I’m certain he’s coming back now.

I remember quite a few NBA players like AD would say things like that “I’m fully committed to the Pelicans this year” and then the next year AD “That’s all folks”

Do they both have the Same manager?

 

[Telltails]

And the cards fall perfectly for Brooks in terms of getting what he wants.

 

[tony soprano]

I'd be happy with Moses and Brooks until Harold matt boys are ready.

Brooks has had one reasonable season in 10 years and we would seriously contemplate 3+ years longer?
If this happens it is proof, yet again, that we are the stupidest club in the NRL... and it's not even close.

 

[tigerap]

Yes Isaac Moses , Mitch’s uncle

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

Yeah if signing Moses is contingent upon Brooks being resigned for another 3 years, that's insanity. He should earn the next contract like they're expecting Laurie and Doueihi to.

And in each of the 10 years he has played behind dud packs.. judge Brooks this year

Warriors are known to be a good family club. No doubt they would have done everything in their power to make it work for him. A 3 year contract for someone of Seyfarth's stature in the game is life-changing.
