Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Hey @Canadian Club many were asking about your post saying sam & latu have re-signed
Wheres this from?
From someone I know to be reliable... Everyone can take that as they will, if they don't believe it or are skeptical then that is completely fine. Just re-laying the info.

I posted in the Samuela thread that i don't know when it will be announced formally, but just heard that it's all been agreed. It's complicated because his agent is banned at the moment and because they're big/long deals, the specific agent (Tartak) doesn't want to miss out on the commission so the paper work and signature have to happen at specific times. He's been very involved in their careers since they were young, taken care of the Fainus and their family especially during the stuff with Manase, and they want to to take care of him.

Manase will probably be at the club in some capacity in the next year or two. Will probably make his way back through RMC and at some point sign a Cup contract. I know many people will be against that and fair enough, but i personally don't really have an issue with it. Manase did the crime and did the time. Deserves a second chance at life and rehabilitation.

There are others in our game who have done the crime, done no time and even rewarded with rep honours and premierships. Ezra Mam, Matt Lodge etc.

Yeah except Manase hasn’t played in seven years and doesnt deserve a redemption arc as the merkin still hasn’t admitted stabbing that bloke. The guy is a filthy jailbird piece of shit and this is a typical braindead Wests Tigers recruitment decision.

It's a bit hard to stomach isn't it, if Latu and Sam weren't such important players in the team would they be bending over so much to keep them, is there leverage involved, some food for thought.

Tartak suspension ends December 18…..so maybe after then will the contract be signed and announced

We should be trying to get Tyrone May as well.
Maybe we can get Rob Lui, John Elias and Craig Field to join the coaching staff whilst we are busy collecting dickheads…

No doubt Manase took the advice of his legal representatives during his court case. To do otherwise would be foolhardy.

He also has brothers who play for our club and family who love and care for him. They may even read the forum. I'm sure you can get your message across in a softer tone. We're all WTs' supporters.
 
Why would you say that? A true supporter would welcome a professional athlete who just played a gf. Some of you people have no idea.

"True supporter" lol... A true supporter knows what a shit heap this club is at the moment.

He's also about to turn 35 in a couple of days. Tell me Col, how have our pension signings in the past worked out?

We're all hoping he comes here and changes the tide but you can't blame anyone for having a bit of scepticism. Hell we took a four time premiership winner on and he did nothing here.

What a waste of talent he was. Api probably thanks him for coming on though because without him he'd probably still be at Manly and two premiership rings lighter.

What sort of Mormon takes a knife to a church disco?

Here you are again speaking with such self righteous confidence on subjects you know absolutely nothing about .. bravo👍👏

Absolutely 💯 agree with this.. This is Australia, we allow redemption, we don’t try to hold people down forever and we give second chances… anyone that can’t at least respect this should take a long hard look at themselves.. especially on a fan forum for a club that has 3 of his brothers at it ..

Do u really think that other clubs wouldn’t do the same if they had 3 players they wanted to keep , things have changed over the years , which would not have been aloud to happen
