According to Kent we offered 2.8 mil over 4 years. Apparently the sharks had only offered him 3 years and were forced to change that to 4 to get him. Glad we didn't get him on that deal. Sharks will regret such a long term.

You think they'd learn. They've got a history of signing forwards on long contracts and then trying to offload them later on. Fifita is on massive money to play Reggies, they can't wait to get rid of Woods.

Also add to the fact they already have a lock signed up long term in Mcginness.
That will push him to FR and that workrate will be even harder on his body..
I personally think he will retire after 3 years and they will give him an after playing job for big dollars.

Was that an attempt to push his price up by WT? Are we that smart?

No one really knows what our plan is, so it's wild guess at this point.

 

[avocadoontoast]

Are we that smart?

Definitely not. Our offer stinks of desperation.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

More disappointed with missing TPJ, but the bottom line we could have offered double and he would have knocked us back. The Sharks are on the up, so life will be a lot easier than heading to Concord

Yep and Old Mother Hubbard's Cupboard is bare again .....we are an embarassment ........Episode 6 in Fairy Tales from Tigerland ......"Why no one wants to come here "

can JP put on a suit for this episode perhaps and look the part

A long way off the top 4. They're just a higher standard of mediocrity than us!

Who knows? It's a good outcome to force Cronulla to a 4th year for a second rower turning 30 in September.

I think we saw an opportunity to offer something he wanted and nobody else was offering. Either it was going to be enough to land him or it forces another team to do something they don't want to do.

This club is top 4 or bust Happy. None of this 7th and 8th nonsense.

Hooper said yesterday on MMM that we offered two years with a third year option and only after his manager contacted us before committing to the Sharks deal. So who do you believe? Kent or Hooper or neither.

I'll take 8th on for and against with a club getting done for salary cap penalties

No - what I'm saying is that both have different information so how can you determine what is truth and what is not.

Hooper has an Axe to grind. I don't want biased reporting from the Media but he kidney punches the Wests Tigers every single opportunity.

 

[Curaeus]

The shambolic and amateurish way we seem to approach negotiations to sign players is an absolute disgrace. It sends a message to prospective players, their managers, the media and the NRL in general that we have no idea what we're doing and that it's best to avoid WT unless you have no other options. Hopefully Sheens can do something about this.

 

[Spartan117]

The Tigers have bungled recruitment in the last two years

JAC
TPJ both should be here now.

Dale F - How is it left that late if were that interested? Wreaks of unprofessionalism when dealing with the Marquee class of players.

 

[Crucible]

We would have ended up bagging Finucane in two years time when his heart is willing, but his legs are gone. Near miss,I say.

so we don't believe Hooper now ? when he said 2 years plus a third year we believe Kent ?
