Josh Addo-Carr hasn’t given up on leaving Melbourne before the upcoming NRL season, with three Sydney clubs on standby – but the Storm winger must wait for the dominoes to fall.

Josh Addo Carr’s hopes of getting out of Melbourne this year are being hampered by the Storm’s reluctance release the star winger unless a rival club can offer up a similar quality player in return.

The Daily Telegraph understands the three clubs in the race for Addo-Carr are the Sydney Roosters, Canterbury and St George Illawarra.

The Storm have already agreed to release Addo-Carr for next year but behind the scenes a game is still being played out to get him to Sydney for the 2020 season.

Addo-Carr is going through a management dispute which is only making it more difficult for rival clubs to enter into any negotiations.

But the other issue is said to be the Storm’s so-called unreasonable demands if a player swap was to occur.

While the Storm are selling it as if they are in a position of power, the fact of the matter is that it is Addo-Carr who wants out on compassionate grounds.

But unless Melbourne lower the bar it is unlikely a trade will be done for this year.

The Storm are in a difficult position given they have already lost Will Chambers and Curtis Scott which has left them extremely skinny in the outside backs while both Addo-Carr and Suliasi Vunivalu will be on the move next year, unless of course Addo-Carr leaves early.

The Roosters are considered the favourites to get the star Test winger if a deal can be done.

Meanwhile, Adam Doueihi’s career at South Sydney remains in limbo following Latrell Mitchell’s arrival.

Wayne Bennett had another chat with Doueihi on Thursday and assured the 21-year-old he would not be pushed out of the club if he didn’t want to leave.

The trouble is if Doueihi stays his best hope of cracking an NRL spot will be as a utility off the bench.

While Wests Tigers have shown interest in signing Doueihi there is a push for the Rabbitohs to sweeten the deal by at least picking up some of his $500,000 salary for 2020.

At this point the Rabbitohs have no intention of paying any money to release Doueihi although that could change if Jai Arrow becomes available for this year.

Arrow’s situation at the Gold Coast hasn’t changed with the Titans still not budging on an early release, although that could also change if Gold Coast can find a suitable replacement.

The Daily Telegraph reported on Wednesday that star Cronulla prop Andrew Fifita had been tossed up as a possible replacement for Arrow.

Although both the Sharks and Titans have denied any knowledge of the Fifita speculation, rival clubs are aware that Cronulla has its own salary cap concerns.

And it would not surprise to see further Sharks players linked with rival clubs in the countdown to the season.

Look at that..Carr still on the outer for this year and tigers aren’t in the hunt...I was so wrong

Paul Crawley's just announced his derangement to the world with this article. Tigers need quality outside backs. It's a glaring need. The top winger in the comp is on the market and he puts pen to paper declaring we're not in the running.

Nice try crawls but we're defos in the running and the club is gonna throw the kitchen sink & then some to snare the fox's signature

There are transfer fees in the NRL now...?

Apparently so. Pascoe can drive down and deliver the transfer fee in cash. They can keep his car too as a little sweetener. He can get the bus back.

Pretty sure if they did it would be included in the paying Clubs Salary Cap allotment..

Using the above ex...NRL would take Addo-Carr's value in our cap as 700K..

for the 1st year where we pay the transfer fee, and then 500k per season after that. Get in now while we have $$$
 
Surely someone has one of those fly spy cameras that they can maneuver into the boardroom to put us all out of our misery?

No we’re not, that was confirmed by one poster on here earlier today.

May as well close the thread. I don’t know about anyone else but I’m growing a little tired of discussing other teams’ imminent signings.

Couldn’t care what he’s achieved in business really ...
How many chairperson’s do you see on tv smiling like a Cheshire Cat gloating about a potential million dollar signing ...
Came across as an amateur to me ...

Maybe he should log onto the forum ?
We know our shit !


Lee goes on the media and states publically how keen we are to sign Latrell and how much the club values him and wants him. - AMATEUR...LOL

Rusty publically wines and dines Latrell at Nana Glen - ohhhh....ahhhhh...so professional and magical.

Personally I was happy with Lee going the extra mile to try to make things happen. People [This word has been automatically removed] and moan about Go & BOF doing nothing and is it the same people bitching and moaning about Lee doing something? I personally love our chair and sponsor wearing his heart on his sleeve.

Lol. At the time everyone already knew we were talking to Latrell. The chairperson does an interview and simply confirms we are interested and hopefully we can get a deal done, again news to nobody.

There are a few guys here that just constantly whinge about the CEO, chair, coach and everyone in between. If he had denied our interest or said nothing those people would be here whinging about how the club never keeps us informed or how we are never in the market for top players.

Also just a side note. It’s funny how nobody believes anything on here at the moment, unless it is “player x would never play for Wests Tigers”, then it becomes rock solid.

If I wanted to turn my opinion into fact I'd go work for The Telegraph and pump out weekly clickbait articles

But like Latrell, we’re probably not his priority
 
What i cant get and do not understand is......based on the numbers being thrown around. AD is getting paid In 2020 more than both JAC and LT. now just that confirms that there is too much bullshir!
 
Don’t believe anything you hear from that Telly mob.
I Just get the feeling that WT may be able arrange a swap and jag him .... aa well as a reasonably good fullback for the money we have left. Those two and the kid from Parra should make our 29 with some cash left over for 30 June signing.
Hope it works out tha5 way.
 
Who cares if we aren't considered a target club for JAC by 1 article. If rather fly under the radar and sign him under everyone's noses or if we do miss out the club looks none the weaker. JAC will sign with us if he wants to.
