Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Tom Shines]

If hes dumb enough to participate in a formal interview with Police, we can well do without him.

He has the right to remain silent..........and not to partake of an extra burger.

lRight … these interviews happen everyday … he might have been doing the interview to actually help someone out …it wasn’t a matter that was related to something he was being investigated for

In which case he could have made a statemenf to police at another time.

He said he was " required" to attend when he did. I very much doubt that.

Where they going to arrest him if he didnt go? No. Can they? No.

It seems to be a pretty ill thought-out and bad excuse.

We need to force the issue with Bula now.

Drag him up to the office and give him a surprise ultimatum.

Api, JL, Benji and Richo in attendance.

Hes to sign an irrevocable letter of disengagent of Satan.

You can't force someone to break a contract with someone else - that other person has legal remedies in their favour against both parties. If we did that do you think "Satan" wouldn't exercise those rights against the Tigers ??

Miller can actually play footy , has a really good tackle technique and is pretty clever with his positioning and has good hands ,, I’m dirty they cut him ,, but they always ditch whatever player I like at the moment and seem to refuse to replace them .. it’s ridiculous

Could you like Naden and Staines ??

"Force the issue" i said.

Its his own choice to sign or not.

I havent threatened or bullied him.

Im giving him an "opportunity" to resolve the issue.

We don’t know what the police said. Or the other circumstances , so pointless to speculate

They cant force him or anyone else to make a formal statement.

Thats the law.

Ask a cop or a lawyer if you want.

Maybe he wanted to

 

[TSP]

Maybe he wanted to

During his training?

He said he was "required" to go when he did.

Thats unlikely.

Hes got non training periods to attend if he wants to and im sure the cops could have booked him in later.

If hes helping them, they would like to help him.

 

[Tom Shines]

He said he was "required" to go.

Thats unlikely.

I read the article … he says it was regarding a family member in relation to a domestic violence matter… is that not a reasonable priority over missing 40 minutes of training ?

dv matters arent resolved during a period of training.

They can arrest and deny bail to a dv suspect on reasonable grounds. They do it all time.

They did it to Taylan May!

 

[Ron Brodrick's Spirit]

He's a fat useless heap of crap that no team wants.
Why are you wasting mental energy on him?

They might be ..based on his statement he provided

Biggest misconception around this Joint is that Wests Ashfield have plenty of money...
And they own Wests Tigers, Therefore - It shouldn't be an issue.

They might have more money than the pope - but they don't spend anywhere near the amount they should on this club... Never have.

I've said it many times,
I remember a meeting where it was discussed by the higher ups, Maybe 15 years ago...
One year, Canterbury Leagues Club gave 4 mill to the Football operations
- Must have been around 12-14 when they were red hot.

Wests Magpies and Balmain gave the Football operations (WT's) Less than 400k total
(Between both of them!!)

And here we were thinking we can compete.

So I guess what Adele said on the podcast was right, we have owners that don't spend money on anything to do with the joint. He was saying the best thing for us in terms of how HBG look after the place would be to privatise. He said though it has to be to the right owner, one who understands that success makes their investment worth more. So they pump money into the joint knowing if there's success they can get a return on investment. He said since the inception of the JV our owners whoever they are at the time have never really put money into the joint. Don't understand why Richo and the board don't just tell HBG they're a not for profit So start pumping money into the Wests Tigers.

No new information from our club.

But please, dont believe the media beat up around Galvin taking less money from us

Our contract was a proposal of a package, it was a 5 year 6 million dollar agreement that factored in 3rd party payments, it was never ever going to take up 1.1 million in salary cap every year.

Galvin has taken 750k for this year at the dogs which goes up 25% over the the length of the deal

throw in the third party payments from laundy hotels.

he is earning more than he would have received at the tigers.

How does Laundy supply third party deals. There is no way they can argue he is at arms length from the dogs being there major sponsor. Unless you're suggesting they are under the table payments.

My understand too - 3rd party deals must be arms length…..but then again since when do NRL abide by their own rules

Have the NRL ever discovered a breach of the salary cap that wasn’t the result of a whistle blower spilling the goods ?
