Brb ...

I just offered him to the Bulldogs

Keep the rumour going,

How does it affect 24 though if Blore‘s signed for 25?

No idea, I thought we were talking 2024. Is that watertight or can we let him go straight away and get Olam under same arrangement ?

You just get the feeling were gonna be screwed yet again...different faces making the decisions..same outcomes..

 

[twentyforty]

So does that make Olam’s signing a fait accompli ?

I guess so, but don’t understand why we needed to swap Blorey?

Storm wld let Olam go yesterday is they cld..his recruitment shld be unrelated to letting our future be swapped
When theres churn at the top,the focus is always short term

I had my suspicions that you were involved but didn't want to say anything without proof. I have however passed on my concerns to Lee H who assured me he will aggressively pursue the matter with the possibility of naming the person involved on his weekly radio slot. I would be very worried and suggest you seek legal advice.

oh dear, Lee just happens to be my personal lawyer; conflict of interests

I just rang the roosters and they said everyone is interested. Make it work
..
Or just offered him to the Raiders

Who is leaking all this stuff? More holes in this joint then a collander.

Player managers are leaking it. This appears to be the start of a number of dominoes falling - if you get movement with Luai that can start a chain reaction for other clubs who are shopping.

A lot of these things shake out in Nov-Dec nowadays, just as pre-season restarts. Tigers have made almost all our major signings the past few years between Grand Final day and December.

A longer term deal - Klemmer will be 32 at the end of the Tigers deal who is offering a longer deal

There are only 3 clubs truly dumb enough to do it - Bulldogs, Manly and Dragons.

How bout we slice of the top of the carrot from Luai and think bigger. There is the Benji Bennett connexion. Another 5 year plan.... oops sorry didn't meant that. 5 year plan....


The biggest player on the NRL’s open market isn’t Jarome Luai, Reece Walsh, Addin Fonua-Blake, Ezra Mam or Tom Dearden.

It’s seven-time premiership-winning coach Wayne Bennett.

The old fox with the magic touch when it comes to getting the best out of rugby league players shows no signs of slowing down.

At the end of next season Bennett will finish as head coach at the Dolphins and emerge as a free agent.

I called it last year. Bennett to become Head of Football in 2025.

I can understand if Galvin wants to leave after this crazy offer to that grub Luai.Latu Fainu might want to leave as well.

Isn't Galvin going to be a backrower or centre anyway? Lad is 18 years old, 6'2" and 85 kgs... getting pretty big for a halfback.

A broken down old forward Klem .. Manly's recruitment must be so erect right now.

I guess you have to answer who would be better to have in your club for 2024.

They didn't say the swap is confirmed yet.

Up to him.

You think he’s broken down? Why’d we sign him then?

 

[JB9918]

Where did Brent Read say Blore gone? Not on his Twitter?

Same bosses

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Why’d we sign him then?

We're the Wests Tigers

The bigger the better.

Sorry Tarl ....Bennett said when asked about coaching the 18th franchise he wouldn't come back to Sydney
