- blore was told by club before scott fulton that he would be free to explore options, deal with leeds was done, but club has had massive change of heart

- riccio believes ice is on his way to parra, the club is looking to move some players on thats no lie, but ice isnt going anywhere, the tigers made a mid season play for ethan sanders and parra wanted ice in return

- stefano will get a contract upgrade in the offseason

- no takers for noffa at this stage

I think Fulton comes across as a guy not to be walked over..
We have not overpaid for players for a while now and I think the club is doing a pretty good job.

Was it not Fulton who tried to arrange the deal for $1.2ml for Schuster, and Tim & Benji told him not happening.

i think that story has been shot down by Schuster, his manager, Fulton, Benji, Sheens and Lee all at different points but still gets raised here multiple times a day.

Glad to see Morris is headed our way, but I must say I don’t think I’ve ever seen an assistant coach signed for 4 years before.

No doubt that will be the thing the idiots on 360 will jump on.

Does 4 years match him up with Benji’s term ?
I like it, hopefully a coaching team that gets to see out their contract and if so that means the Tigers are on the up. 🤞

Let the great man answer it best answer ever

Let's just get that to every journo out there!
And the ppl with the pods.
Every.
One.

If we somehow start 2024 with either Stefano or Papalili not in the squad then pass me whatever petition I need to sign to make sure Pascoe never enters Concord again……

Papalili and Stefano are our best forwards right now at the club and they better be treated like that if they do ask for a release. My mail though is Stefano’s happy at the club, however unsure on Papalili’s status.

Another Rumour
You just have to love how journos can start anything they like to put doubt in peoples minds.
It doesn’t seem that long ago that everyone was convinced Ben Hunt was 100% leaving the dragons.

Don't know if anyone watched the ask the boss segment. I like the way Fulton spoke. Has no time for rubbish journalists/nonsense and sounds like he knows what he wants moving forward to bring success to our club.

Seems clear that he, Benji and the recruitment committee are on the same page, have a plan of who they need and are going after them.

Still has recruitment plans in the works for 2024, along with looking at moving players on (but at the same time trying not to take up all the spaces of our more promising juniors coming through).

This is extremely vague, but on the Bloke in a Bar podcast the Hello Sport guys said that there’s a rumour that they “hope isn’t true”…they said it’s in relation to the Tigers signing a new player. They seemed concerned and said they were a game breaker. Given they support Manly and get inside knowledge one can only assume that another high-profile or up and coming Manly player is coming to Tigers.

Yep I stopped reading when he hacked on the Tigers for no good reason.
Meh, Webster is a knob and souffs suck. May the football gods rain down pain and bad luck on them both for the rest of their days.

Olakuatu???? Makes sense as his name has been thrown around lately as being signed or chased by the tigers

First name that came to mind but really don’t need any more backrowers.

Have you heard if there are any bites for Jake Simpkin or Kepaoa? And any progress on Mary McGregor joining the coaching staff?

 

[kade7]

mary happy with his role with NSW, not completely out of the picture, but was more of a backup plan if morris fell through

AJ and Jake have contracts, but club wouldn’t stand in their way

 

[jirskyr]

Why would Cleary want out of his contract?

Maybe because he's upset Penrith didn't buy him a BBQ

If you can believe the media.

What are you talking about, you take Haumole with both hands if that actually becomes possible. Bloke is a weapon. We have nobody like his size and power on an edge.

I won't hold my breath though.

Most likely plays in the second row for manly.

I was going to leave it alone, but you called me a sword smoker, I have been married for 27 years with 2 kids now in their twenties.
So I am far from a sword smoker, what this proves is you have no idea, and more importantly a complete lack of class

I had no idea what a Sword Smoker was...
Urban dictionary to the rescue:
The act of smoking marijuana as well as engaging in a King Arthur sexual role play with a partner.

Wow this is a thing. Ok it explains the round table/round couch!
