TIGERS SET TO MAKE SWEEPING ROSTER CHANGES FOLLOWING OFAHENGAUE'S DEPARTURE
The Sydney Morning Herald’s Adrian Proszenko says that Wests Tigers fans should expect more list changes soon following the departure of Joe Ofahengaue.
Proszenko said that with the recent appointment of Scott Fulton as head of recruitment and room in their salary cap, plenty more movement players will come and go at the Tigers before the end of the season.
“You are going to see that Tigers roster change now that Scott Fulton has come across.
“There are already talks about a few Manly players that he may target.
“The composition of that roster will change.”
Fulton was controversially hired from the Manly Sea Eagles by the Tigers board who didn’t consult the coaching group.
SEN’s Scott Sattler has warned against the Tigers pursuing a handful of players from one club.
“Wests Tigers, be careful of signing players from one particular managing group,” Sattler said on SEN 1170.
“It terrorises your playing roster.
“You can’t continually file your players through one club because it ruins you.
“We’ve seen it with the Gold Coast Titans who wanted to sign two players but (were forced) to sign another six.
“It weakens your top 30.” (SEN)
