I don't know why, but I believe Mistanon.

For some reason I believe him that it's done and dusted.

I may have had a stroke.

Ok so no more 24 hrs!!! It is now 240 hrs!!!!! Let’s see how this pans out?

Gonna be a long next 2 weeks by the looks of it unless Panthers say nope / Bulldogs can find cap space.

Interesting when he himself has said he hasn’t signed anything. Suggests more to this.

He can’t sign until the 10 day period expires or Penrith wave the right to counter. It’s pretty much him and the Tigers come to an agreement, submit the deal to the NRL, the cooling off period happens then he can officially sign the papers. So at the moment it looks like he’s agreed and just waiting to be able to sign.

Chammas seems to have jumped the gun a little here....

He's told his friends at Panthers he's signing
with us. Penny are giving him the 10 day
grace period out of respect to him & for
his service to the club. He also has a year
left to play with them. Doggies are scumbags

I get that. He can sign before the 10 day if the Panthers sign a waiver also. He can also at the 10 day period change his mind. So right now nothing is set in stone. We just made a direct play for him and the ball is now formally in his court.

Not calling anyone saying he is coming are taking the crap out of us just that this process playing out like this sucks.

4. He has signed and current discussions are regarding when he comes...

I'll give you one thing your sticking to your guns on this one, hope you're right.

Concur, my interpretations also.

Yes but would require him to burn us to do so making our deal be removed off the table

Reading the noise it’s clear we are in the box seat but will be a nervous 2 weeks for us fans.

Good God really? Why is everything such a long drawn out saga with us? Other players usually just sign with other clubs and bingo it’s done!

 

[Buttface]

This 10 day shite wasn’t implemented for the benefit of the fans, can’t these players make a decision and stick to it?

 

[Tiger Stripes]

My other question is why would he tease the WT supporters by putting that on his IG?
Why bother, it mystifies me why he did it if we are to be his new fan club?

Think he's trying to be respectful to the Panthers, likely has to play there in 2024.

Or as @Mistymuzzle has alluded too, maybe working out if he comes earlier.

Exciting times ahead.

No they don’t. You just think that because you don’t follow the everyday saga of who other clubs are negotiating with.

 

[rugbygoated]

I have not looked at the thread yet but I anticipate the Luke Brooks comparisons Luai will be getting in 2024 when he tanks it at penrith and then does better than his detractors think when he comes here in 2025. The man thrives off of hate

The 10 days is a brand new rule this off season

 

[Muffstar]

Hopefully it's not 10 working days as it won't be resolved until the New Year if it is.....

You'd think there would be a rule against third party interference once a player has 'agreed' to terms and goes back to their club for a final powwow.
