Hasn’t been mentioned no, but personally would love to see him here.

Yea Tuilagi got upgraded. Plan is to front load contracts making more space from next year.

Israel Ogden having a discussion with the club this week. Club also looking to poach a young forward from the Dragons Shalom O’ofou

Purely down to financials, club willing to pitch in 400k.

Woods discussion is very early & just a gage to see if any interest in returning, nothing concrete & no offer put forward. Nothing said or mentioned internally from the club about Lomax. Waiting to hear back from Egan Butchers management.

Chee Kam hasn’t been offered a new deal & one won’t be forthcoming. He’s not in the clubs plans for 2022 period.

Both have deals on the table. Mikaele being chased hard by 2 clubs, club is asking for answers on contracts prior to August 1 for front loading purposes.

Extremely frustrated, not getting a simply response from a player manager after attempts of communication is just simply rude.

Edge Forward is main focus/depth. As well publicised junior ranks main focus with stockpiling of lower grades. Egan Butcher had a discussion with Hartigan end of last week, deal to be presented to his management this week.

Can’t see us even having a hat in the ring for Funicane, not formal offer was made, his a management wanted all deals on the table last Friday so he could make a decision this week. Unless they entertain an offer this late he won’t be joining us.

As of right now the club has not heard back from TPJ’s management nor have they returned the clubs latest attempt at communication……….appears he’s made up his mind.

TPJ’s management have been informed we are no longer in the mix. Door firmly closed.

Not far off, offer was submitted, his management says we fall short of what TPJ has been “provisionally” offered elsewhere, so not officially offered. Only club to have an offical offer written up, TPJ management saying we need to come to an agreement that averages $700k or more with Broncos...

Many around the club believe he's already agreed to a contract for 2022 but no announcement due to the fact he's be looking to go this year.

Think it also had more to do with Lodge than TPJ, they certainly will look stupid if TPJ secures a release within a week of this chest beating story.

Would certainly be on the cards, TPJ wants out with how he's been "treated" over the last couple weeks. Offer only submitted today, if he agrees will all come down to his Manager securing the release from Broncos.

Bit of both, discussions have been had on where we need to be at to get a deal done & then the obvious story during the week saying players going "nowhere". Unless a team (Bulldogs) come in with another formal offer rather quickly I expect this to move fast. But also depends on which Broncos...

You are correct, but clubs need to fill top 30 spots prior to August 1 & if TPJ comes in it won't leave alot to spend so upgrading from lower grades on minimum wage will be the likely action taken.

He is for next year but not this year.

Club awaiting on medical report for Smith-Shields but from what I'm told he sees his pathway in Canberra too crowded & we are in the box seat. Development deal for 2022 to start off with.
