Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

As the Wests Tigers prepare to launch a club-defining bid for Jarome Luai, it can be revealed that David Klemmer has been floated to rival clubs in an attempt to remove his $750,000-a-year contract from the club’s salary cap. (DT)

Always one step forward two steps backwards with this club

What a surprise. You could have seen this coming from miles away.

Re floating Klemmer...

Just put your shoes in Klemmer's for a second. Imagine just arriving at a club, committing to a group of blokes and then it's "your not worth 750k".

We have done this a lot, with Joe O, with Moses Mbye, with a bunch of players. Easts is a flight deck, we need to manage our cap a stack better.

Could have predicted this with a microscope 🔬

It's this idea that you just sign guys without thinking it through. I like Klemmer. He is a good solid prop. He ain't worth that contract now though and that is why the Knights let him go.

Klemmer isn't in Mbye's league as well.

Collateral damage lol 🤦🏻‍♂️

I don't think it is big overs with the rise in the Cap for next year and after. 33% increase in the cap. So $1.2 mill in the new $900k

people need to be relative to how Luke Brooks was on 1.3 million in the old market! How much more Nicho Hynes who is on 1.1 million until 2029. If you're asking me which player I prefer out of Luai and Hynes I'm taking Luai every day of the week

They told us Joffa was released so we could upgrade our pack further lol apparently not.

I reckon at some point we are taking on that contract in full. Maybe this season.

Wasn't he only contracted to Knights til end of 23? If so, whatever he is on now Tigers would be paying full freight.

Yeah it’s hard enough to get quality players as it is but the second we change our minds we shift them. Klem also has good rapport with a few players so abit surprised by it tbh unless AFB is inbound

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

We still taking about Joffa

We’ve been told many times we’re in a great salary cap position. The club is so full of shit.

Buy a membership. Plenty more where that came from. Especially when Benji stuck up for Lee

 

[Odessa]

And buy membership

Mine is on hold until the coach gets to February I have purchased 10 memberships the 11 year is on hold

 

[jrtiger]

Klemmer allegedly being shopped screams Scott Fulton trying to get AFB to the club any way he can.

Addin Fonua-Blake incoming. 😉

Joffa was released to upgrade Seyfarth

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Do what you have to do Odessa. Just remember. They are covered for life. Interest rates, inflation, taxes, use your money wisely - just like they do. How much do they pay you? Wests Tigers?
