OFFICIAL Elijah Taylor [Discussion]

[Tiger_Watto]

I see most here dropping their bottom lip that we haven't signed ET yet?

I read he wants 500k to re-sign?

Anyone who thinks he's worth anywhere near that is dead set kidding themselves… He is basically a smaller version of Liam Fulton.

A 350k back rower (generously at that) If he wants more than that I'd be happy to see him turning out for union.

Staying at the Tigers buddy… Not sure how much though

Go the Giraffe!

A smaller Liam Fulton? He's 191cm and 100kg's. Fulton was 187cm and 95kg's

I can tell you that Elijah has agreed to terms but cannot be announced until Curtis Sironen has been moved on otherwise we would be over the cap. I've been told its a formality.

I cannot reveal my source but we can only wait and see how this plays out

Told the same thing, but still it would be nice to have it done and dusted

I cant see why the timing announcement would matter…we are only over the CAP if we pay players not based on announced players....?..Am i missing something? ...I see the Sirro to Manly move is getting airtime outside this forum so hopefully its true..and I hope his payout is not a burden to our Cap...for the next 2 years.

Iam not a 100% sure but I don't think you can register a new contract if your over the cap, well at least on paper. I know plenty of clubs have been over the cap when signing a new player but I guess they have had a doggy way to hide it. Anyway the Siro thing is a dead set certainty.

 

[tigers05]

it is the only reason why it hasnt been announced. Sirro needs to be moved before Taylors contract can be registered by th NRL

In that case lets hope we can offload Kev and Rankin. We need more than this to have a better year

 

[gallagher]

So does that mean the club saw Idris as a more important signing than Taylor?

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

No, Idris is lower income due to structure of contract.

 

[Newtown]

So does that mean the club saw Idris as a more important signing than Taylor?

Probably a signing which required more immediacy due to the large number of clubs showing interest.

Yes you are correct SC that was the problem with Beau Ryan's contract, they couldn't sign it until them moved a player on.
Beau got nervous and signed with the Sharks.

 

[Fumbles]

Another one who we gave a chance now trying to get the club to pay overs.
There's a reason Penrith didn't want him let's not forget that.
If you want to stay take what we can afford otherwise just move on who cares.

Yeah and while it is still not OFFicial the Titans circle looking for a replacement for Greg Bird

 

[newtiger]

As I previously mentioned whilst Sirro took up the contract option to stay he has still been given permission to negotiate. He is not on the crazy dollars many people quote, the last reliable info I had put him on $280k, but I think the option bumps this to a little over $300k. If Sirro did move on we would be active in the market for a centre / winger. No offers have been tabled at this stage to retain Hunt; Peni; Griffin; Graham. We all but signed David Mead when Teddy committed to Canberra, but I don't have anything substantive to share regarding possible signings, still too many balls in the air. I wouldn't expect to much in 2018 either as we will be trying to lock up our own talent - born & bred, not bought & fed continues to be the mantra for recruitment / retention.

Geo this is TT's post about Siro' s salary.

Ever heard of Kevin Proctor…? Signed a 4 year deal with the Titans...Official...

Beau didn't get nervous - He left because Heigno (his best mate) was given the tap on the shoulder….
