Ah this is going back and fourth, was it a direct quote? 😕
The merry-go-round continues but it is nice to see some change in the Tigers recruitment, more active in chasing quality marquee players :slight_smile:

American History - what does the article say?
Is he now unlikely to join us?

there was only a couple of sentences but i dont have the paper in front of me, i always give it away to someone else to read but it talks about melbournes salary cap and ryan hoffman and money, and a little on the end that Lima doesnt know about being linked to another club - its like the first he's heard of it, or it could of meant that if he knows he's linked to a club then its like a denial from LIma. The gist of the two little sentences implies that Lima aint going nowhere. He's happy at Melbourne.
But what confuses me is the previous media reports where Lima talks about coming back to Wests Tigers. I think that something is rotten somewhere. I'm privy to belive that Lima will be coming. It's not like in the newspaper this morning that they didnt talk about Lima. Where there is smoke there is fire.

What is it with all this Tiquiri love,I want Lima and Cayless,Tiquiri I am not too fussed on,he is past his prime and slowed down,we need props pure and simple,Tiquiri would be good for sponsorship,but the other 2 would benefit us on field and that is where I want to improve.
I think AHX has maybe exaggerated what was said. The way it is written suggests Weidler could have been basing the article from Lima's quotes before the gf.
For what it's worth it is:
HOFF WON'T SHOVE OFF

Ryan Hoffman wants it made clear that he doesn't want to be the odd man out when Storm boss Brian Waldron puts the squeeze on players to fix the salary-cap issues. "I'm not going anywhere," he said. "I've just done a three-year deal with the club. It would be the shortest contract ever if they asked me to go." Jeff Lima was mystified by rumours he was going. The club has been in talks with his manager Sam Ayoub. Waldron said something was going to give. "We haven't talked with the players yet," he said. "We won't stop a player if they can get a better deal at another club for a longer period of time, but at this stage we haven't looked at who may not be here."

Out of the three we definetely need at least one of the props.
Lima would be very nice but it doesn't look too likely

Lima and his manager are trying to squeeze as much as they can from the contract the Tigers offer him…. and concerning the talk that the Tiger want the Storm to pay part of it... I think the Storm are trying to get out of this too...
Lima will sign... everyone needs to have a bit more faith
