Lots of players testing the market at all clubs - given the money that's being talked about every manager is going to encourage their clients to see how far clubs are prepared to go.
Unfortunately the Wests/ Balmain and ultimately Wests Tigers brand has been damaged by individuals that have not lived up to the demands /expectations of what is necessary for running a successful professional sporting club.
It is ridiculous that talking about our connection where ever that...
Well that would determine what TA's main motive is - you would like to think that this is about securing a better future for the success of WTs. Getting Nick Di Giralomo to represent may suggest that this is very much about the management of WTs rather than simply seeking money. Vengeance ?? -...
The fear of getting injured must get in his head space. Feel for Latu but I think its becoming more clear why his transition to FG has been, and continues to be a work in progress.
To all those who have screamed about how poorly Latu has been managed - you pick players in FG with the belief they are going to stay on the field to help you win games. Latu is not that player yet.
TA was the one who accused HBG of wanting to bring the Magpies back into the competition. He is from the Wests side of the merger - so not affiliated with Balmain - but may actually have Wests Tigers best interest at heart along with some personal stuff to address in terms of the allegations...
I think we definitely finished stronger - Dearden made a huge difference. We had some luck in the first half that kept us in it but you have to play 80 against quality opposition.
