Final word I have no factual / creditable info on signings for 2017, just rumours, none of which are particularly exciting though I'm not completely up on the rumored signings of 1-2 ESL players. As far as I'm aware we have only factually tabled the Klemmer offer and are not actively looking...

I can confirm we have tabled an offer to Klemmer - actually this offer was made in February & included $150k TPA. Total package $750k which for the time being will operate as our maximum contract per player : Woods; Teddy; Moses; Brooks. $600k + TPA. All with annual reviews which by 3rd year...

Re Nathan Milone he's another Balmain local junior like Lovett and is extremely well connected to 2 club sponsors….......$$.!!.h He's another really good bloke just like Lovett & Buchanan. In addition he's best mates with Brooks & Moses and has captained lower grade sides. Yet again its...

The team is really confident of a strong showing against Parra. Woods ; Grant & Sue all looking to go 60 minutes +.A vox pop of 7 support staff has a 4 / 3 majority supporting a win. My personal view is simple. If Taylor can somehow squeeze 50 serviceable minutes out of Lovett and then replace...

Easter greetings to all. Here's the latest facts - far too much fiction of late. The club has deliberately not published its top 25 players (under 1st tier salary cap) as chosen by Head Coach Jason Taylor - the website lists 36 players in the so called NRL squad. Well here's the 'secret top 25...

Milky, Taylor at this stage would be reluctant to drop Naiqama he is certainly one of his personal favourites along with Lovett and a few others. But yes the view is if Naiqama was dropped or injured Seve may get the gig, though Chee Kam is still in front. In 2016 Taylor would rather not play...

I would only be speculating but there certainly are more than a handful that are very close to him - my view would be that Taylor would struggle to get another gig here in Australia. In short I have nothing of substance to offer, but consider it unlikely that the club would lose players is he...

Tigger 2010, I can let you know the following. Tim Grant along with Brenton Lawrence as per my last posts we offered $250k per season for 2 years / we could only afford one. Manly were reluctant to subsidise approx. $100k per season for Lawrence, Souths were /are on the verge of $200k per season...

Thank you all for positive feedback - 'the truth will set you free'. I really wish I could be even more specific with certain details but that would leave me exposed. To be succinct the NRL competition is not / never will be a level playing filed, its very much the survival of the fittest /...

Further clarifications: No inside info on Brooks & Moses, though every indication is that they will stay for a further 3 years. Its only Addo-Carr not Tyler Cassell who is matching Korobete's sprint times. Cassell is fast becoming one of our best defenders along with Edwards. Incidentally...

Sorry guys typo - omitted Simona from Team #1\. He's training really well and has regained his pace and acceleration.

Based on training and fitness tests being completed this week the current top 17 in opposed teams training is: Team #1 Tedesco Addo-Carr Naquima / was replaced by Rankin when he corked his thigh Noffa Moses Brooks Woods Farah ( fittest in 5 seasons, both in skin fold and general speed/stamina)...

Not that hard really was it, listen carefully next time when Woods is asked about Lodge - he always tries to mention his great offload/2nd phase. All the front rowers are now trying to show solidarity by putting offloads in their game. Watch on Monday's upcoming massacre there will be offloads...

Tiger Watto as 'Big Ears' would say OHHHHH Noddddddy! That's the real reason he signed on. He's got Foxtel and a gig on the side, with the possibility of something down the track. You got it but does he ? Methinks not. But it would initially only be in a caretaker capacity and by then the...

King Sirro - not Santi he is a perfect fit for NSW Cup, that's where he belongs an honest hard working plodder. Think really aggressive and someone not afraid to stand up to a previous really really good coach! That's it I'm sure you've got it now.

In short we don't have the ready cash to spend the full cap allocation. We are well and truly under the cap for 2016, but we won't be able to find the cash to spend the full allocation - I had it explained to me 3 times before I understood. Like all my info the source is first hand not second...

O.K. guys its been awhile so here's the news from inside the bunker. -Simona may play on Monday but its not only his ankle that's causing concern, its his general fitness & pace which has been the case since the pre-season. He is simply not making the second efforts at training as he hasn't got...

We are a team of imposters coached by an imposter coach. The cold hard reality is that only Teddy & Woods would make the starting sides of the leagues top 4\. Tapau who's form is on the slide and has never impressed with his stamina, may get a interchange spot - he is only good for 15 minute...

This is what I have heard from the club today. Teddy Noffa Kev Hoeter Pattycakes Moses Brooks Sue Halatau Galloway Lawrence Sirro Tapau Int: Lodge Ava Lovett Cherrington * Simona is a 50/50 chance of an early comeback for Hoeter. Halatau will definitely start at 9\. Paul Fletcher has been asked...

Starting with this news that Lawrence can now look elsewhere for 2016 ( asking $350 - $400k) even though under contract we will all get glimpses of the future under the new regime in the coming months. Tigers are looking to shed up to $1 million from cap by releasing / not resigning 5 players...
