Stickys Fox bum chums hoping to give him a leg up...

Seriously, They tear strips off everyone in the entire competition on Fox - But never say anything bad on Sticky - Who is the most unlikeable bloke in the game and has been for close to a couple decades....
This story comes from a review of the club by Nathan Brown, who the club employed to do it

so true Batboy!!! Kent never ever rags on Canberra, even when with the Salmon saga kent basically said nothing on Nrl 360.. yet he cant wait to sit boot in to us on any occasion (though sometimes we deserve it :{
 
Channel 10 news running the Papi no sure thing to come to the club, "more bad news for Tigers fans" punch line
This could end up disastrous for us.
Signing Papalii and Korisau was a big win for the club - in terms of being competitive in the player market. So a backflip/release would be a huge setback with building our roster.

We appear to be a club that continually struggles to find it's bearings and any changes have a marginal impact on improving our situation.
If we could entice another player of a high calibre (and a couple of solid workhorses for our young lads), it will look so much more promising for us - fans included.

If all the rumours are true, and his head is not in it, we don't want him...I would say that initially it was all that money waved in front of him that made him make a rash decision and since we look pretty bad (wooden spoon) he's not willing to take a chance on us anymore- he's not willing to come and help make this club better- these blokes just make too much money, and in the end it's all about the money

Our erratic behaviour isn’t helping. Statements from our Chairman indicate a lack of direction continues for the club. No point in drawing a line in the sand at low tide.
 
I don’t see how he would end up at the Eels, he will be here or at some stage (not year 1) end up at the warriors.

In someways glad this issue is happening now so Benji can get some real experience on turning a key player bad situation around.

So make it about money. No Tigers, no contract, no contract = no money.
 
He should flee to France for 3 years and come back after & sign for the Roosters.

Cop a lawsuit along the way.
Use all his France income to pay us and the lawyers back.

That's the only way the guy can get out of this contract, you're stuck with us buddy... and you're not winning any fans over either by dismissing us every chance you can get.

I want him here no matter what.

3 year contract.

Yep. I also expect the same on field performances he has given the last couple of years to be replicated when he plays for us.

I'd also love another gun edge backrower signing prior to next season starting.

I would love it if we filed a successful law suit against these show ponies, managers as included.
The only thing that will stop the rot is hit them in the hip pocket.
The NRL and players union are useless and are hellbent in crippling clubs like us (assumption). Not allowing us to train whist other clubs are playing finals footy is an another example and is hypocritical imo.
There was an article years ago that wrote the NRL were going to keep increasing the cap until struggling clubs die out and only superclubs survive.
Well that has failed so and their unwillingness to help out with contract debacles may be another way to get rid us us.
The same goes for allowing media bashing.
If they don't help with the Papali'i case then they don't care about their product...as hobo says "punt them"
Most of my comments is pure emotion and not much fact but I reckon I'm not on my Pat Malone with all this stuff.

We hold all the aces re: Pap. Signed contract..you don't play watch from the sidelines. Would rather WT sacrifice the coin than release him
