Parra can't give him a new contract when the contract lodged by us has been accepted by the NRL. Though I do agree his manager is using our vulnerability and paranoia against us in the chance he can get something extra from us.

The way he's playing I don't mind giving him an extra 50k.

But rather them sick to our guns. If he plays well the first 12 rounds then they can discuss more
 
It's BS all this talk about him not being here he has signed a contract and it's been lodged with the NRL the Tiger's took the risk it look as if they paid overs for him then and he took the money and looking like unders now he could have backed himself to get more but did not and took the great Tiger's offer ....

The Tiger's have let go of 3 forward's in the same position after they landed him

Sheenius is a tough Nut he is not going anywhere anytime soon

Google his first game for them against the sharks - under the heading “teddy Blair” from memory - 1 run 8m…

It’s funny everyone bangs on about he was the best back rower in the game etc at the time, and we destroyed him and all that - he was considered behind Thaiday and Ellis in the couple years prior.

Adam Blair sucks and Brooks is the best !?

LOL some of these debates are insane on here.

Brooks, halfback of the year 2019.

Adam Blair won grand finals and represented his country multiple times.
Yeah, he sucked at the Tigers but to deny his prior and post form is laughable.
 
Sheens for the premiership run had no money as the club couldn’t spend to the cap but still recruited well, 06 & 10 he did other big drives also.

Hodgo - nsw fullback before he joined us
Richards
Whaturia
Elford
Prince
Benji
Payten
Heighno

Mixed with a bunch of juniors he blooded and older heads

8 of the 17 he recruited externally within his 1st 2yrs.


2006
- o’hara, moodie, galloway, Tuiaki, Flanno, Lolesi

2007
- nil

2008
- head

2009
- Ellis,

2010
- cayless, brown, mckinnon, tuqiri, meaney

2011
- utai

During that time youth & player retention was the focus. Sheens would debut a bunch of players each year as well.

Moodie was 04'. He joined with Prince, Elford, Scatter, Payten, Richards, Reynolds, Graham and Hodgson.

We only had to win one of the last 3 games to make the finals that season but it was a classic Tigers capitulation.

Also, off the top of my head, our 2006 recruitment drive included Slammin Sam Harris, 2007, Danny Galea and Morris (our Cronk), 2008, Payne and 2010, Daniela.
