Done deal ...
2.2Mill over 4 years and a new JetSki

The Jetski isn't in the cap, you weren't suppose to mention it. :face_with_rolling_eyes:

See told you @bagnf05 he was unlikely to sign here lol Right on cu

This has already been posted mate, that’s why I mentioned it, good news.

Yeah, just finished work so hadn't seen it.

Good business by us. Mansour has been a great contributor for Penrith, my brother is a big fan and hates what they’ve done to him. Karma not good for them.

I love the hardball stance you guys are taking. It's as if you think we can afford to shed good players. Before you start taking about offers around the 300k mark, go back and watch some games. He is an amazing meter eater and can score tries with three defenders in front of him. He is the only one in our roster who does this and you guys think we can impose any condition we want?

But a team of rugby league nomads, reformed bad boys, overpaid vets and unproven rookies are about to lead us from oblivion mate. Just ask the forum.

That's honestly the most accurate description of the Tigers, spot on.

Whenever I start to find myself hoping or expecting too much I go and look at some of the top 4 sides on paper. Superstars as far as the eye can see. Can’t we have just one?!

You need to lower your expectations mate and just relax ...

Just not my personality mate, mediocrity doesn’t cut it.

Haha. If you’re not trying to be funny , that comes across as , such a douchebag thing to say lol “You know , I get out of bed and I just piss excellence “
“If your not first you’re last “

I don't understand this not accepting mediocrity. It's really weird. So you don't accept mediocrity but you are posting on a forum about your footy team.

If you were serious you would be out there kicking goals all the time. You'd realize that you have no impact at all on the results of your footy team. Accepting mediocrity is what you are doing.

I'm no better. I could be studying hard to become the next superstar of whatever. I happy with mediocrity in my life. Personally I'll let other people go on and be superstars of whatever it is they choose to be.

Not exactly mate, going and watching WT play is my long time hobby and it’s been pretty depressing for a while. Nothing wrong with posting your feelings about the club on their forum.

Most good organisations welcome feedback from customers.

This isn't their forum so if you are expecting something to change by posting here you need to contact them in a different manner.

I think they’d be silly not to have someone in their PR/Marketing team occasionally reviewing this forum. Selling memberships requires knowledge of your customers and there’s plenty on here. You’re right though and I have also provided more direct feedback in the past.

You get much better results by contacting them directly.

As I said mate, I’ve done that. They know where it stands for me as a member/customer and what it will take before I commit my time/money in future.

Little things like not signing Josh Mansour make me believe we might be heading upwards.

There was an internship offered by the club a few weeks ago ..
You should’ve taken it up ..
Got a foot in the door so to speak .

They were after uni students, I’m 15 years removed from that.

Factually, I say factually - Nofo wants 600-650k a year, where has this real fact come from (and I don';t mean some Goose in the media).

Willow has said that our offer is a lot less than 500k - that is a big dollar gap. You would think if he really wants 600-650k and 4 years and we are immovable - he would have pulled out of negotiations.

I think the 600-650k is just a made up figure and half on here have fallen for it.

At best his manager has indicated but is that really Noffo.

He originally wanted 680 k ...haven't heard a different figure

So it has been said Happy....but did Noffo say it? if not. who said it?

Managers lie through their teeth, wouldn't take any notice of him it was Ayoub.

Edit: Yea Yea it's a big joke to a lot on here - I am just seriously trying to find out who said he wanted 600-650k?

i.e. Besides the media and his manager.

**It was from a Forum member whose info is pretty solid 90% of the time**

In fact the only time I can remember them being wrong was Napa coming here

Who...?

If they're taking advice from on here we're in big trouble!

Correct, they wouldn't be signing anyone if they did.

Well they have 137 pages of intel on DNof

You may think you are the be all of information on this forum, but we are all having a guess including your self.
So now they have 137 pages of different opinions.
Not sure what they will make of it.

All figures on here are made up figures

 

[clontarfkid]

Door has closed on Nofo to Souths as they've announced Sauce on a 2yr deal. Paves the way for Nofo to take the deal on offer at Tigers.

Just parra now

Parra must be under enormous cap pressure..theyve bought just about an entire team at full market price,and those they havent bought need upgrading(Brown/Siva)
Plus they desperately need to buy a hooker and almost certainly a centre .Plus a winger
Cant see how they can possibly afford Nofa..although I did think that 4 or 5 years ago before the wrap on the wrist with a lettuce leaf from Toddy.......

Couldn’t they use Ferguson money they have been quiet

 

[Elderslie_Tiger]

With Mansour signing 2 year contract with SOUFFS that limits Nofo's options with him signed to us for 2021 and mosts teams settled and Parra with cap problems he running out of places to go should look closely at what's on offer because it may not be there latet

Sure...500k allegedly.But hooker and centre are keys to their finals phase out and gotta be priority over a marquee winger.
U never know with the eels...

That's not a jet ski, that's a corolla with water wings.

The same bloke who told me about Ballin I'd guess

 

[Swordy]

Ok, Now it's time to 'call out' the forum tools.

Those are the people, even up until yesterday, who were adamant Mansour had already signed with WT as they worked on an exit strategy for Nofo.

Come on, out you come! identify yourself!

Ferguson would be the money they would use surely and it fits in with the price nofo and his manager probably keen on and that is North of 475k you would think

 

[THE_POM]

Nofoaluma has re-signed.

Nofoaluma has re-signed.

Fantastic news and a great PR story for the club keeping one of our local juniors.
