Mate, we’ve been through pain for the last decade. Now we’re making excuses for another couple years of “pain”. How many years, 2? 3? That will push the tally up close to 15 consecutive years of no finals, in a competition where half the competition play finals. That’s unacceptable.
I think you could sell it to Luai that we want to hold off till 2025 so that we can strengthen our backline and thereby provide him with a side that is capable of making the 8.
Chances are it was because he was already signed to a marquee club. Would have looked pretty silly to leave them for us when he already had a contract there. Everyone hates Penrith, thinks they have an immoral club, who will do anything to win, Do we think if we sent a promising junior there for a year and Penrith liked him that they wouldn’t try and get him to break his contract with us. That’s why I hate the idea of player swaps. Too much grey area and potential for club’s to the dodge. It seems like it only a one off anyway. No other clubs have attempted to do the same since. Maybe for the reasons I stated.
Again, overthinking. We sign him for 2025 and wait. Very rarely do players sign with another club a year in advance and their current club lets them go a year early. It doesn’t happen. If we sign Luai, it will go down the same way it did with Api and Ice.
It smells of an Isaac Moses special. He wants his clients out of the Tigers
That was a loan swap
Because he was offended we didn’t make the move. He felt we didn’t want him by making the trade. We were in deep negotiations with him and his management then decided not to do it. He felt unwanted, so he went elsewhere. We screwed that up.
Mate, we were in deep negotiations with him to get him and we didn’t go ahead with it. Besides from reports of money we were offering more and he still turned us down. If we agreed to the swap, he’d be ours right now. But we decided not to and that’s why he didn’t sign with us. If you were in deep negotiations with a club then they decide to not go ahead you feel unwanted by them, and that’s what the Tigers did. We messed it up plain and simple.
Offering more money doesn’t always land you a player. Latrell Mitchell ring a bell? Anyway we messed it up in regards of JAC. Pretty sure there was proof of a possible swap going ahead for him but you’re free to believe if there wasn’t.
It’s both hilarious and mind boggling that player agents sometimes dictate where their players will end up. The players get treated like 10 year olds, being told who they will and won’t play for. Sounds more like the player working for the agent than the agent working for the player, as it’s supposed to be.
Should ask Klem and Galvin to roll with Black Money 💰
I love how you have no idea. Gus and the Bulldogs have yet to table a formal offer and the ‘Biggest’ chance is he’s going there???
