JAC

[Strider]

If tigers miss on Ado Carr it will be gut wrenching. I'd expect bottom 4 result next year. Jeez. Fingers crossed 🤞

 

[barra]

Here's the latest with JAC:

1. He's accepted the offer put forward to him from the Tigers (Best $$ wise compared to others)
2. Fullback bonuses included, (If he makes FB his own the deal would average out to $675,000 P.A)
3. 4 year deal starting in 2022 there ready to sign Nov 1 if deal with Melbourne not reached before.
4.Would be a lie to say if the club wasn't nervous that during this delay there are others trying to get in through the back door. Melbourne don't appear keen on James Roberts & Souths don't have the $$ to match our offer even with Lowes retirement.
5. No idea where Bulldogs name came up into this, no formal talks/offers presented last check.

Cheers mate. Any other possible signings you can mention?

No world beaters, currently depends on 3 things, JAC, Harry & if we can move along the big $$.
On a serious note Packer is still expressing mild headaches due to the last concussion.

So we are actually in with a chance to keep Harry?

Not according to Harry tonight.

What did Harry say?

Going to Melbourne ...which is what he has continually said for a fair while now

He has been quite coy about it all along, IMO.
Even when pressed last night he continued to tow the 'as per original arrangements' line. But when pressed said if Smith plays on it will be re-assessed.
But he does seem gone if Smith retires.

I think if Melbourne win the GF Smith will definitely retire. He’d be mad not to go out on a high, he has nothing else to prove in Rugby League. Better pray for a Penrith win for us to have any chance of keeping Harry I reckon.

Dogs are barking but Foxx still uncertain where future lies

Josh Addo-Carr has no idea which Sydney club he will be playing at next year but he does know that this Sunday's grand final will be his last "in the purple jersey". Suitors like the Wests Tigers, South Sydney and now the Bulldogs have been mentioned in dispatches for 2021 but Addo-Carr has only one club in mind this week and it's Melbourne Storm.

"I have no idea to be honest," he said of his future, ahead of Monday's field session in preparation for the Panthers at ANZ Stadium. "I have a really supportive group behind me in the Storm, in my management, in my family all working behind the scenes on all that stuff. All I've got to do is focus on this week.

"I've got to really enjoy the week as it's probably going to be my last for the Storm. I just want to enjoy my teammates' company and make some good memories with the fellas," he said.

"Melbourne will always hold a special place in my heart. I'm really grateful to be a part of this club. My name is on that (Storm honour) wall with some of the greats and no-one can take that away from me."

The Storm are still yet to officially release Addo-Carr from the final year of his contract but intend to do so if they can arrange a player swap of similar quality.

I don't care if we could sign Dally M himself.

The only praying I'll be doing is that Scumbag Iv, Tik Tok boy, Punchable Face Luai and the the Pamfers themselves all get beaten badly in the GF.

I’m tipping Storm. They’ve been playing great footy and know how to target teams weaknesses. Penrith are extremely reliant on having high possession percentage to win games and I don’t think Melbourne will give that to them. Melbourne played much better than Penrith last week and Penrith copped more knocks than storm too and Melbourne will test the young fellas of Penrith, it will be extremely close.

Bulldogs reportedly in box seat to sign Storm grand final winger Josh Addo-Carr


The Bulldogs have become favourites to sign Storm winger Josh Addo-Carr, a new report says.

The Daily Telegraph reported that Addo-Carr was a big chance to play for a grand final opponent next season, with Panthers assistant Trent Barrett taking over as Canterbury head coach. Addo-Carr, the NSW Origin and Australian Test winger, is a Barrett fan.

Addo-Carr is seeking a move back to Sydney for family reasons. The Rabbitohs and Wests Tigers are also in the mix for his signature.

It has been reported that he wants to play fullback; it is unclear what position he may play at the Bulldogs. The struggling club has already signed Canberra winger Nick Cotric for next season, though he could play in the centres.

The Storm granted Addo-Carr a release on the proviso that it gained a comparable player in return from his new club. That sticking point will need to be worked out in the ongoing negotiations.

Addo-Carr is leaving all negotiations to his management, aiming to enjoy a winning farewell with Melbourne in the looming grand final.

"I made the decision to put all that stuff behind me and really focus on the finals series," he told The Sunday Footy Show.

"My manager and the Melbourne Storm are really working their backsides off to get this deal


What this report says to me (particularly with the Pom news) is that the Tigers have made the right offer, sounds about right. If the Dogs drop out of the clouds and poach him it is ONLY about $$$ and the Tigers are right and doing the right thing letting it go.

Wont stop a lot of hand wringing here about how terrible we are because we let another one slip, but at the end of the day, to me , the club is going about this in a professional manner.

Professional gets you nowhere in this league.

First: Panthers - numerous sex and Covid scandals last 18 months, poached a coach under contract
Second: Storm - systematic cheats, stripped of titles
Third: Eels -systematic cheats, stripped of premiership points
Fourth: Roosters - nothing to see there

Can we try unprofessional?

We are unprofessional

We just suck at it

11th - Wests Tigers - salary cap punishment for trying unsuccesfully to cheat the cap.

explain how we benefited from this
By paying RF $600,000 out of our cap to play for souths
By re signing him 18 months later
By offering him a job he never took
Or by having our cap reduced by $640,000 over two years
All for a hooker who's time was up
Oh and throw in the fact our CEO was band from performing his job for 6 months
There seems to be two standards in this league
One for Wests Tigers
And one for the rest

You forgot the fine that we got!

Not for Souths it wont be as he will most likely end up there. .... Look how they have shut down the massive Burgess story from a few weeks ago and how there team doctor lied and nothing reported to NRL integrity unit.. If that was Tigers we would need to relocate and shut down our headquarters in NSW after our punishment for the Farah non disclosure.. Double standards

I for one will be keeping a close eye on this situation as this is a very serious matter if found guilty.. Fingers crossed on JAC as this would be a marketing dream for us and will bring numbers through the gates so to speak.
