Its great to here him talk that way about the club and the coach.

Knuckles has a point, you blokes just can't or won't see it.
Farah stayed loyal, took a back ended deal to help the club, and look at him, being shoved out the door by the coach, whilst I think Farah should go at the end of the year, the coach who shoved him out should also hit the frog and toad.
But I do love Teddy's attitude and desire, he is a real wests boy and weststiger legend.

It's all been said a thousand times before mate. This is a great story that didn't to need become about Farah.
Negativity just for hell of it.

If Tedesco was to leave i'm sure you and Knuckles would be among the first to lay the boot into the club for making such a blunder in letting him go. It's easy to talk tough now, telling him to leave. Lets see if you'll actually be congratulating him if it becomes a reality. I have my doubts.

When did I say for Teddy to leave, you are a real piece of work. :angry:

Didn't you just say Knuckles has a point?

He does have a point, but when did say Teddy should go, I said I admire his attitude, unlike yours.
I really think it is time we met, don't you.

Go to the highest bidder Teddy and look after yourself …. There's no loyalty at the Tigers as we have seen.

Mate I am surprised with your attitude you have not had your punched in quite a few times, and if you would like another one pm me.
 
Good to see a potential star wanting to commit to the club. Hopefully if players do not hold the club to ransom by pointing out the potential to earn more elsewhere, and we no longer have a 2nd rate CEO, then there will no longer be huge back ended contracts that stifle the club for the benefit of one player
 
Finals or not, James Tedesco is already planning on a Wests Tigers NRL dynasty, believing the joint venture's gun young playmakers can replicate the dominating era of star Melbourne trio Cameron Smith, Billy Slater and Cooper Cronk.

In an ultimate show of faith in coach Jason Taylor, the Tigers' No.1 has pencilled in a sales pitch to teammates Mitchell Moses and Luke Brooks over the summer to remain at the club long term.

All three stars come off contract at the end of next season but, given their recent run of wins, Tedesco is adamant their best chance of success in the NRL is by sticking together in Tigerland.

"All three of us know we play our best footy when we're all together and, footy-wise, it would be best if we can stay together," he said on Wednesday.

"Obviously, it's going to be hard.

"But with how we've been going the last few weeks, it's pretty clear there's something special going on here and, if we can keep that going for the next few years, that will be good for us."

So enamoured is Tedesco with the club's vein of form that the NSW State of Origin fullback would consider taking a pay cut to stay.

He'd even try to convince the other two into doing the same and, in doing so, hope to usher in a new era to follow on from the long-running reign of the Storm's Smith, Slater and Cronk.

"We haven't crossed that bridge yet, but I think we probably could talk about that," Tedesco said.

"You see a team like the Storm with Slater, Smith and Cronk, who have been able to stay together their whole careers, and they've really built something special down there.

"It's an opportunity for us and we'll just have to see how it goes with management."

Tedesco said he recently knocked back an approach from the club to begin talks on a contract extension, but would be ready to take a seat at the table at the end of the season.

With four games to go in the regular season, the 9th-placed Tigers remain in the hunt for a finals spot.

"I've said I wanted to focus on my footy and we'll finish this year. Then we'll get to talks after that," he said.

Tedesco's confidence in the club comes just weeks after Taylor's controversial decision to axe veteran Robbie Farah from first grade, handing the reins to the next generation.

The 23-year-old, who was talked into backflipping on a deal with Canberra in 2014 by Farah, said he always had belief the team could perform without the former captain.

"We knew what JT had in mind and he analyses our games every day and night," he said.

"Whatever JT's plans were, we all had belief in them. (Aaron) Woods has done a good job of getting us away from the media and not reading too much into stories and staying focused on our game."

How refreshing is this? :slight_smile:

Hopefully Harry TPA will continue to help out.

No, not anymore …. I'm so disillusioned with Wests Tigers management I will direct my energy elsewhere. Anyway, it will be a good test to see how we handle a superstar... We all knew he was good but I doubt most on here knew how good he has turned out to be. Let's hope our new management team are astute enough to keep him in our colours.

It's sad we're on a roll and we have supporters with this mentality.
