If you were his friend you wouldn't put his business out like that in public. 10% upgrade is huge In footy speak. 1 decent season doesn't make you a premier forward. Samoan international yeah, Keaon Koloamatangi has shown more promise with a quarter of the budget. He's a Burwood boy too.

10% increase when you’re on a modest contract? Going into the prime of your career?
I’m not gonna argue my friendship with him

Thank you for sharing this insight, it’s interesting that we give the elite guys months to make decisions but club stalwarts much less.

I’m only mentioning it because of today’s news about McIntyre. There has to be some sort of disconnect between Management and Coach because Josh has always had a great relationship with Madge. Maybe Hartigan is realising when you’re not at the Chooks, things work differently

 

[tiga4eva]

So is he definitely leaving?

I’m not sure, but I seriously doubt he ever wants to pull our jersey on again. He’s still contracted for 2021

That’s a shame. We’ll be lucky to field a team soon, might have to forfeit.

REGARDING JOSH ALOIAI

Josh is a very close mate of mine and this situation is terrible at the club and it hurts to say because I’ve also been a life member of the club and love the club but they are really treating him poorly!

: At the awards night it is based on a 3,2,1 point system each game much like the dally Ms, josh received points for 1 game while we had players such as packer receiving points for every game he played... not bagging any other players but I mean really?

: Josh played all of 2019 with broken wrist and broken screw in his joint with no complaints at all!

: josh was given a contract offer which in my opinion is disgusting considering he is our top forward! It was basically a below average forwards wage! I will not say the exact figure as it is private.

: When he rejected the first offer and asked for a bump up they rejected that and also gave him a 1 day deadline! He is a brand new father still on crutches at home due to him putting his body on the line each week for the club and they give him a 1 day deadline?! Come on! That’s disgusting

Now I see josh as a future leader and captain of this club and the disrespect the board and coach is dishing out is just not on! I really think this great club needs a good clean out!

I just wanted to clear some things up due to the comments I’ve been reading about josh.


That is from a mate of Josh. It should be noted he mentions the coach was a party to those poor recruiting tactics / poor treatment of a legit workhorse for us.

Are you quoting someone there or are you the friend?


Quoting, but the guy is legit.

Cheers, just saw the other thread. He doesn't post crap.

Josh needs to realise one good season doesn’t make him a world class forward who should be getting huge money. A 10% upgrade from one good season seems pretty reasonable to me

Clearly Madge and hartigan aren’t going to pay players more than they’re worth and won’t even bother talking about it with the players, it’s a take it or leave it type deal.

His contract is modest, 10% is measly. And after November 1 he realised how much other clubs valued him

If other clubs wants to pay overs for him clearly tigers won’t stand in his way. They’ve been pretty set on not giving guys more then they’re worth

If Josh was that upset about it he should talk to the club about it I’m sure they didn’t mean to upset him, Madge is obviously a big fan of his but he’s had a lot of injury issues and only 1 good season can’t expect too much

You could expect more than a days deadline.

Sure that’s fair enough but did he tell them that? Or just get upset and go talk to manly. Like I said I don’t think it’s the club not appreciating him Madge is clearly a fan they’re just showing they won’t overpay players

Cool, so who’s replacing him and his 140m a game and 28 tackles?

Can figure that out in 2022 plenty of money then. They’d be stupid to release him for 2021

Trust me I’d be gutted if he left but I can understand the club not wanting to pay overs especially the reported figures manly are offering

There is no way to sugar coat this one....you don't treat a bloke like Josh, who is a legit club man, this way.

Madge did none of the main recruiting at Souths. Hartigan was an absolute no one at the Roosters ....do you really think anyone other than Politis and Robinson did their recruiting?

We have serious issues that need to be addressed in terms of retention and recruitment. I admire fans like you who only want to see good, but there comes a time when we need to realise stuff is wrong.

I have a mate who has been involved with the club and sponsored it for decades who basically got auto replies on emails and never assisted for ages and now is giving up.

You don't treat people like this and expect loyalty back.

Regardless of value, you don't treat a bloke who busted his butt all year for us like this also . One of the only ones who did.
