Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

We should do whatever it takes to chase JAC. Maybe he has an attitude problem, but he's a player that transforms our backline, and we desperately need players who can score tries to go with our shiny new spine. Right now our team severely lacks X-factor, and he brings it.

Personally I'd hate to see the back of Blore, but I wonder if there was someone else we could swap for JAC. I'd say Twal or Seyfarth if they didn't just re-sign...

The Bulldogs met with Twal before he re-signed so there’s interest there on their side .

"Alot cheaper than $1m"? Don't know if I believe that.
Halves are a premium, and SOO halves are even worse. Not saying that he's all that and a bag of chips but the kid can play, and if the Dragons want him they will need to front up the cash just like us.
Prior to us signing any of our halves, I said we should be in the race for him.
I think the Cows will do whatever they can to keep him but as @tigerballs said their cap is a problem. I can see him moving, and it won't be for much less than $1m a year...

The only thing cheap about rugby league these days is the journalism

They get the grubs out of the gutter

Especially factoring in the cost of living in Sydney compared to Townsville

Would be interested to know how players feel playing under Flanagan.

They don't seem like a desirable club.
 
Our recruitment drive is stuck in the mud till we can move a few players on and that is not an easy task. Most clubs have either cap problems or have filled their roster. Also the players we want to move are not hot property. Our current top thirty are not going to make much if any progress up the ladder in 24
 
There was a time when people used to say that JAC loves the Tigers - pretty sure when he left it was said he had the desire to return one day.

Haven't really seen that, especially since we missed out on him when he signed with the Dogs.

I'd take him back in a heartbeat. We would need to give him a decent centre though.

He never would have left in the first place if he really loved the club

As Johnny Utah said, “He ain’t coming back”.

Didn’t Pascoe go on holiday right in the middle of his contract negotiations?

And while he was away he couldn’t wait to sign for the club he loved and signed with the Storm.
Good move really, he’s got a ring none of our players have playing here.

The 2025 season is a mutual option with a clause that if we miss finals in 2024, his contract can be voided for ‘25.

He’s indicated he’d like to re-sign but the 2025 season isn’t locked in yet.

OK but still no need for an extension just yet. Even if he wanted to activate the clause he'd have to wait until September 2024.
