An ITK with both Manly & WT players on Twitter posted last month Haumole to Tigers could happen in next 12 months. Has provided good & accurate intel on pathways players recently.
Wouldn't have a career if it wasn't for the incarcerated Fainu...
Maybe his loyalty lies somewhere else, other than the club (Manly)
He's up there with the best back rowers in the comp & will only get better....
Love to see him at the Tigers.

He mentioned more recently that manly offer is huge and predicts he won't see out the contract due to cap issues.
Was in a bar in Silema Malta having beers with a couple of pommy mates when i was introduced to a cousin of
Morgan Smithies the Wigan lock/second row explained to me that West Tigers had spoken to him about 2025 he was not sure how far it had gone but also said Bateman was in his ear about coming over.

Wests Tigers are preparing to make a rich play for Newcastle star Bradman Best once the November 1 trade window opens.
It is understood that the Tigers will want to make Best one of the highest paid centres in the competition by offering a long-term deal worth more than $800,000 a year. The Tigers are on the lookout for a strike centre with Best at the top of their list. They could also make a play for St George Illawarra centre Moses Suli, who made his NRL debut at the Tigers in 2017.
While the Tigers are ready to pounce on Best, Newcastle are confident they will lock him down before he is free to negotiate with rival clubs and have already been engaged in positive talks with Best and his new agent.

BULLDOGS POUNCE ON TIGERS YOUNG GUN
One of the Tigers brightest prospects Alex Conti is set to quit the club and join arch rivals Canterbury next season.
The Tigers have purchased a heap of halves going forward including veteran Aidan Sezer next year. They have also brought in external players Jayden Sullivan and Latu Fainu on mega four year deals to push for starting spots in 2024 which has come at the expense of local product Conti.
He is now expected to challenge for a top grade spot at Canterbury in a bid to solve their long-term halves problems.
A host of rival clubs and even rugby were interested in securing Conti, who captained Balmain’s Harold Matthews Cup side this year. Conti was picked in the Junior Blues squad last year and has long been touted as strong first grade talent.

I’m now thinking this could be a ploy to get Newcastle pay maximum for Best & then we try to extract Dane Gagai on a 2 year deal.
You've been pushing for Gagai for a while aye, or was it Hymel Hunt?
😂
I'd prefer Best...
A few clubs have a fair supply of centres, we should be talking to as many as possible in hopes of landing at least 2.
I don't mind Best and would take him over what we have but IMO he is not worth 800k.
He goes missing a lot in games and don't think he has the best defensive reads.
Don't get me wrong he is a great player when switched on and would not say no but too much.

Yeah Gagai, only that he does bring experience & speed into a young backline and we’d only need to commit to 2 years. Would not block our youngsters coming up, only help their development. I still think Galvin will come into grade as a centre and then Onitoni Large & Makasini may be ready to debut in 2 years as 18/19yos, they COULD be that good.
