OFFICIAL Bryce Gibbs [Discussion]

The Tigers have a few up and comers and Fifita is among them. BUT, so are BMM, Groat, Woods, Begovich. So let him go if he wants to get the $$ from somewhere else. I feel more sad for Gibbs as he probably wanted to stay but has been given an option to test the market (i.e. we need to move you one to free up some $$ for someone else). Good luck to Andrew if he picks up a contract elsewhere but I do not think it spells gloom and doom for the Tigers if he does.
 
C'mon people, name calling at one another isn't going to make this rumour become official any quicker. Please keep it civil, there have already been a stack of posts deleted by the Moderators, don't make us close the thread because you can't be civil to one another.

Discuss the thread and not attack one another.
 
Fifita agreed to a one year extension but then is offered a big money deal to go the Sharkies. He must have a good manager!!

You can't blame him if this is the case. They only have a limited time in the game after all

i hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the sharks have also enquired about Groat.

i hope to god we tell them to nick off

They might very well have Andrew in the bag but they've got buckleys chance of getting Groat. Tigers will not let this weapon in the making go.

Gibbs officially gone to the Sharks, three year deal.

fifita not far away.

they are still in talks with fults (as are penrith), but that may depend on what happens with toupo and waterhouse (who both clubs are trying to send to england).
 
Now im sure we will see groat and begovich more often i would say and im all for it.

Why would sharks buy any of the players we let go they havent got a good history and i got a feeling this will be no different

correct.

Fafita should really look at Tupou's decline as a prime reason NOT to go to the Sharks. It torpedoed his career completely. Sure, he raked in a mountain of cash, but thats all he has to show for the past 3 years.
 
Good luck Bryce. He will be an asset to the Sharks.

We will miss his defence and work rate, he does not stop and does the little things that not many people notice.
 
Not a bad move by the club. Players like Gibbs are why we have been sitting at the middle of the table. Its time to aim higher.

Honest tolier but nothing more.
 
We see many many players go to melb nobodies and Bellamy turns em into guns.
What about the other way around?
Turner, now he was no gun but he was playing better in Melb than at Pentrith and the Dogs
Inglis - doing SFA at souths really
Hoffman? Dunno really.
Dallas Johnson does what he does and would do it no matter where he went.
Im not convinced Blair would suit our style…especially with our every - now - and - then go forward forwards.
 
The unprofessionalism of the club and players is starting to really annoy me.

Bryce is on Twitter pretty much bagging the club and you just know Farah is not going to let this go. This is obviously the reason for the crap they've been delivering every week.

A lesson in professionalism would be fantastic.
 
Wests Tigers are expected to confirm that Bryce Gibbs has today signed a 3 year deal with the Cronulla Sharks starting in 2012\. It is unclear if Gibbs will be the only player to depart Camp Concord at the end of the season.

[sportsnewsfirst.com.au](http://www.sportsnewsfirst.com.au/articles/2011/06/09/gibbs-signs-three-year-deal-with-sharks/) reports:

TIGERS star Bryce Gibbs has jumped ship and signed with Cronulla for the next three years.

It had been believed Gibbs would stay at the Tigers for the rest of his career, after signing a contract extension back in February.

But the Sharks have enticed Gibbs to turn his back on an extension to the 2014 season.

The 26-year-old is a regular City Origin representative and has been one of Tim Sheens' most reliable campaigners over recent seasons.

Gibbs was one of the young stars who spurred the joint-venture club to their 2005 premiership.
