Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I live in the area (20km N/E of Taree) I avoid the Taree Service Centre like the plague 😂.
I'd rather walk in to the old Airds Pub or go for a jog in Claymore (used to live in Bradbury) than go anywhere near the Taree Service Centre.

I don't even take the Taree exit, especially after dark. I'd rather take the Cundletown or Coopernook exits, they are closer to my joint anyways.

So are you up lansdowne way?

He looks like Prince... Maybe looks are deceiving but he seems seriously thin

He seems to have that skinny-wirey type strength.
He beats his fair share of defenders without possessing electric footwork.

There’s not a single fibre in my body that thinks May will let us down! He genuinely means everything he says! That’s the character, the man, the player he is! He will go all out for this team like Luai to win us a premiership 🔥🫡

Hopefully finish their careers here with multiple premiership

That’s a good t-shirt tan.

Lol - it's a bandage

I think it's super that Luai's clauses are public now.

If it was him It means that Richardson believes that the roster is solid enough to turn the tide and he is good enough to manage the negotiations with Luai, Galvin and others going forward.

If it wasn't him it puts the onus on him to own it and fix it.

Either way, the club wins.

This is where the club was previously tooled.......roster management and re negotiations with crafty players management.

This is where the rubber hits the road.

You think it’s great that galvin knows about luais exit clauses before he extends?

Hmmmm

Lol

Its terrible dude but im happy for u that you have a more optimistic outlook on life than me

Just think his management would have used it against us then, when it would've been harder to deal.

No way this would've survived hidden.

If anyone hasn’t watched the Terrell May Bye Round Interview episode with James Graham then I highly highly RECOMMEND you watch it! Such a real inspirational human being! 🔥🔥🔥 I would be ready to run through a brick wall if Terrell May was my teammate! 🫡

Four quotes really stood out to me:

1. “My mindset every year is if I don’t win a PREMIERSHIP RING I have failed. People say it’s about making the Top 8. My mindset is to WIN that’s it!”

2. “I’m here at the Tigers to lead the fitness drills, win every wrestling session. It’s all about winning for me, not the paycheck”

3. “I’m ready to play 80 mins every week. My fitness can match up with any player in the comp. The longer the game goes the better I get”

4. “I’m ready to die on the field if it means I haven’t let down my people (fans, family, teammates, club) down. I will go even when I’m fatigued until my legs stop moving.”

If this interview doesn’t pump you up nothing will. Bro is also running a 42km marathon in December and a month into the 75HARD fitness program. Already lost 7 kgs and in incredible shape.

But there are some on here who think he is here for the money and has no desire to win for the club. Maybe they are the ones who need to check out the interview

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Interviews are great. Football does the talking. Hope his hunger rubs the rest the right way

Any truth to this?

Maybe I’m being all chicken little, but I got a different feel from May in that interview. The section were he was a bit annoyed that he wasn’t told earlier about not being wanted at the chooks so he had options at stronger clubs kinda pissed me off, felt a bit like sloppy seconds but hey, 3 time spooners, guess you can’t be the first pick.

Agree with others assessments though that he does sound like he wants to rip
In and wants his actions prove it rather than words.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Yeh. Stop talking. Just play the game. With your team mates. Its different. More talk the better maybe.

There was an article yesterday saying that they were going to use the money they saved by releasing Bateman to upgrade his current deal and extend as well.

Bula is not a small fullback by any measure!

He is lean and lanky at 1.87m tall and was reported to be 91kg at the start of 2024.

By comparison Hodgo was a diminutive 1.75m tall and 78kg wringing wet!

Reece Walsh is 1.78m and 89kg...

I can't believe anyone can doubt him. In a half decent backline in 25, he'll just be a superstar. And defensively, none better since Gary Jack! Some people.....

What was this on ?

 

[crazycat]

I’d like the club to disclose it. Supporters have a right to know. Especially if they want supporters to pony up for memberships. Aren’t you tired of reading how we have signed “player X” for X amount of years only to find 2 years later “hey, about that contract. Yeah, there’s actually a clause that says the guy can leave that we didn’t tell you about”. Just an FYI, Bula also has a clause, even though the club touts him being till the end of 27.

Man, I just had a wild idea.
Why don't we get the guys who do NRL contracts to write Marrage Vows?

"Do you lawfully take X, in sickness for 2-3 years max with a healthy option to exit if Natalie Portman became available?"
