Its' been rumored a Syd based club has offered Nanai 4.2M over 5yrs. Imagine all the Bateman talk was a smokescreen for the real prize.

I does mean Tigers either having to fork out another hefty transfer fee or offering up a player to sweeten the deal.

He's still got 2 years left on his current deal in UK.

I feel Sheens prob cracked it and told Lee to pull his head in and stay out of all recruitment/retention discussions with the media. Has definitely begun to work in our favour.

Oh yeah 100% agree, all I'm saying is there's no guarantee it's with us though would appear likely based on all the chatter and that we're the only club that's been spoken of in any potential move back to the NRL for him.

It has been mentioned Bateman's partner who's an Aussie has already moved back to Aus with their child and he has stayed back to finalize affairs in UK (has allegedly just listed their house in Wigan for sale). Read into that as you will however it would appear certain a move is imminent, the...

Needs to work on his golfing attire, those wheels are appalling.

Williams still has 2yrs left on his contract which means either paying another transfer fee similar to the Johnny Bateman one being talked about or offering a player in return.

Could be his time to make a comeback in his natural position, certainly could fill a hole in an emergency.

Cheers mate, keeping well and also plodding. Yeah exciting times ahead, some Pommy John news today would be a nice way to march into the weekend with.

Hey bra how's things? Nice to see you still kicking around here. Felt it was time to make a comeback and see what's been happening. Had a bit of time away as for me the forum was taking a turn for the worst.

Unfortunately 1.4M for the Tigers is about spot on to even get a look in and is about 1M to clubs like Roosters/Riff/Melb etc as they can sell success and winning culture to a bloke. Tigers realistically can only offer a bloke a flash new COE, 7 home grounds and a sniff of being part of a team...

That 650k towards and elite FB and you suddenly have a spine that can win a comp.

Woodsy commits.

Yeah pretty sure the WC lads don't return till around Jan.

Joey is still employed by Newie as their halves whisperer. He spoke as recently as yesterday about how he has been working with Ponga helping him transition to 5/8 and how he looks forward to working with Jackson.

There's 3 things in life that are certain: Taxes, death and Batboy being a condescending #rick. Nice to see after my multiple months hiatus you haven't lost your touch lol.

I assume referring to AD's reply at the bottom of Hastings farewell post.

I reckon AD will be on the way out as well given he apparently sees his worth at around 900k/season. Not sure where he fits in the Sheens/Benji era. Doesn't really seem like a Sheens sort of 5/8 and I don't feel he has the speed for outside backs.

Brooks can't even run through his own testimonial banner let lone lead a team. He'll be lucky if the club keeps him let alone make him El Capitano.
