Stefano Utoikamanu #241

I reckon there’s 3 clubs with contracts ready to go. Just coincidence they will have clauses that just happen to align with what steff wants.

would be funny if Spencer Lenui slips in the shower tomorrow

 

[Betterdays22]

I feel weary like you having to deal with some of these blokes here ..

Exhausting enough with the 13 blokes on the field

 

[Glenji95]

The past 2 weeks have shown what he’s capable of, we might need to up our offer.

Glad you aren’t in charge of player retention. 800K is more than he’ll get elsewhere upping the offer would be borderline stupidity. Hell that’s overpaying for him now considering he didn’t even hit 100 running metres.

 

[Enmore_Tiger]

Fox during the game said he said he just wants to be a winner at the Tigers, or something similar. Are we sure he wasn't misquoted earlier today?

 

[Halbrowne61]

Haha Unable to negotiate thats funny

The tooth fairy says that’s right, so what’s your problem O !!🤣🤣

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

The kid is a bit confused...

 

[Moh]

Is the forum back to liking Stef? Or are we still trying to make ourselves feel better about him leaving.

Beast of a prop, who hasn't even hit peak.

If he doesn't want to be here, so be it. He'll miss Api's service.

If you don’t think he will get other offers of 800k, you are off your head.

 

[watersider]

Two good games in a row. Winding up on his runs, really good line speed as well. Still could be more dominant in his tackling but he's a massive reason we've won these last two. As much as I hate to say it.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Brothers in Arms

 

[hammertime]

If we make the 8, he has to stay for another year.

Let's get it done!

Ok tell me which club is gonna offer him 800K a year besides us?

 

[Tiger_claws]

Not porkies ....

He has not signed on for 800K and I was told today that he is off to the Roosters

Life goes on good luck to him and I hope he wins the premiership that he wants

You won’t mind us sending this information to Richo. He hasn’t been given permission to negotiate with other clubs. That close family member has just risked his manager’s accreditation by telling you he has agreed to join Roosters.

 

[hammertime]

Can't even see him singing the team song. Unless he was doing the video.

Man I really want him to stay. But so disappointed with his comments.

These "winners" always are looking for the easy road. Seems like a cop out.

 

[Westie]

My biggest issue with him is that, if he can't see the team that we are building ...
2025 and 2026 are looking like being our most promising years since we lost Tuaki and Dwyer.
We were cruelled by those 2 injuries not to mention our coaching decision disasters and being backstabed by I Cleary....
These are most potential field years in a very long time...
So if he is to dumb to see that potential and at the same time get paid top dollar...

Then go and you don't deserve to be part of our reviviled....
🐅🐅🐅🐅

 

[BAGNF05]

If you don’t think he will get other offers of 800k, you are off your head.

If Roosters are involved it’ll be over 800 but 550 on the books.

 

[old_man_tiger]

Let's say we finish 9th ot 10th and he walks....that's the thing I find ridiculous here.

He wanted to play in a winning team and guess what, by ripping in he got what he wanted.

We still have $1 mil on the cap too according to Richo. Maybe less with AD's signing...

Well said Westie.
Would be great if he stays and would be very disappointing if he goes.

Stef is a consequence of previous management. Player managers knew they could get contract clauses or cause trouble to get an early release after players got an opportunity at a battling club. Rich’s will end this however this was all done before he got here. We will only keep players upgrading and extending and maybe our own juniors.
