Merlot said:
thats funny ,besides the last month Adam has done jack in the last 3 years . He is the king of mediocrity, telling us all he is a captain worth twice the price , but giving mostly nothing but lip serive

He was out injured for 2 of those 3 years, got our players player of the year award and had to play alongside some of the worst team line ups in NRL history.
Most would struggle with this scenario.
Anyway let’s be happy with our lowball offer, let him sign elsewhere and see how we got without him.

Wha

What would Cooper Cronk know ?
Let me contact Fox Sports and let them know Cooper has no idea, they need to replace him with Snidest from Wests Tigers Forum.

Whenever I listen to Cooper Cronk - it has lowered my IQ...

He's as clueless of a tool in commentary as those who like to quote him!

So the club somehow owes him ??

What exactly?

You're a fair dinkum muppet!

Isn’t Cooper our next assistant coach ? I thought that’s why he’s flicked the Roosters. Or vice versa.
I thought his fingerprints were all over our changes on Sunday, especially Douehi to 7. And his commentary seemed fairly pro Tigers.

You know more than Cronk, maybe we can get you on our coaching staff ?
Doueihi‘s recent form has been a fluke, we don’t want halves who have a long kicking game, are a running threat, make line breaks, score tries, dig into the line to create opportunities and line breaks for others.
Why would we want all of that ?
 
With salary caps increasing and 2 additional teams to enter the comp in the not too distant future, I believe a proven NRL goal kicking utility will increase in value. If we can secure AD for the next couple of years on reasonable coin then to me it's a no brainer. I understand that other posters have decried the fact but he is a Wests Tigers junior. Sign him up Richo.
 
Sorry AD. Thanks but no thanks. Was happy to see you stay but once you signed with certain mananagement, that was a sign that you were chasing whatever you could get. Best of luck

Yes, but that was not the subject of the conversation. If the conversation had been about Luai's performances the issues would have been front and centre. It was not though - we are in the AD thread discussing the club's offer to him and why he would not be offered more. I don't believe the leaked $350K story - classic IM.

Benji has stated he wants him to stay, but with a contract that matches how he fits into the system. It has nothing do do with his nationality - it is about his flaws as a player. AD will have been told why he isn't being offered the $ he wants. If he wants to stay and be part of the build he can - if he was smart he would build in a couple of performance clauses to get a pay rise at the end of 26 if he meets certain KPIs.

You have been consistent in the narrative that we need better to be a top 4 team. Looking at ADs performances objectively; does his off the ball play make him a player any top 4 club will chase?

If we want to be a top 4 team he makes great depth.

He doesn’t even have a definite position. 350K is the max you pay a guy like him if you want to win.

I must admit that Adam Doueihi has me with egg on my face.

I wasn't exactly sold on keeping him going on some woeful defensive displays and what seemed at times a complete lack of urgency in both attack and defence earlier in the season with his kicking (general play and goal kicking) seemingly the only thing keeping him in the mix.

I'm so glad he has shown what he is capable of and has stepped up to the plate as a leader, leading by example,
Well done to Adam.

As for re signing him? I'd get him to bring in the Dragons best offer (in writing) and match it and he'll stay for sure.

There’s no need to match that offer. Does he really want to be paired with Kyle Flanno in the halves. #scapegoat central

Which other clubs are keen?!

Cooper Cronk who has recently been at our training sessions, stated last night in Fox that he believes Latu needs another 18 months of development before being ready to lead a team as their number 7 and says he believes Douehi is our best option playing 7 right now.
I’m not sure about everyone else, but I think Cooper Cronk would have a fair idea on this subject.

Has this been confirmed?

Very curious as to what capacity if true.

What did he do in the 2 games that weren’t against the Titans?

He still has a bit to do to get to To’a’s pre-injury form.

He just hasn't had the bad games Toa has yet... I'm probably jumping the gun on the hype of win against the dogs.. Toa was great earlier in the year and has been playing with injury...
