Yes $200,000 over the cap this year Lovett told to leave immediately.
Maybe Taylor aint so bad after all.

Kyle was alright, ran his line, played hard and straight when he got the ball and never offloaded. Did the job that was asked of him. Unfairly unpopular I thought when most of his shockers were in the centres.
Wasn't an essential inclusion for 2017 but we'll have to dump him at a bargain basement price and probably have to pay him to play elsewhere. Probably on his way to England, no NRL club's going to splash on a fringe player at this stage.

If this is true, and he has a contract for this year… Wouldn't he have grounds to sue the club?
Im guessing the media are putting their own dramatic (ordered to leave immediately) spin on things.

I saw the news report. Short and to the point said that Kyle Lovett has been ordered to immediately leave wests tigers as they are over the cap. Nothing else mentioned at all.

Lol you can't order any player who has a contract to leave. Nice bit of sensationalism there. Would be a shame to lose Lovett, better than most give him credit for. But it's definitely not the end of the world.

Cos we're paying $750,000 dollars for Robbie to play for Souths.

Lovett did what was expected of him , you could never accuse him of not giving 110% every week
Club obviously thinks it has enough cover in the back row , I'm not so sure
Any chance we might be releasing him for another signing (he asks hopefully )???

I'd personally be looking to offload Rankin or Kev before Lovett.

That's why I asked the last question Gunners , letting someone go where we have a perceived weakness doesn't make sense in my opinion ….
@GNR4LIFE said:
We have depth in the forwards and not in the backs. If you assume we start with:
8\. Woods
10\. Sue
11\. Aloiai
12\. Lawrence
13\. ET
14\. Ava
15\. Grant
…the last bench spot is then between JJ Felise (talent), MCK (ability to play in the centres), Edwards (defensive impact), Marsters (talent and attacking flair) and Paseka (raw impact), all of whom arguably offer more than Lovett in a bench role playing limited minutes.

200k over the cap? Obviously something did not go to plan with Robbie's transfer.

And this is after Curtis Sironen left for the Silvertails, how much coin was he on and still 200K over.

Also I suspect a few guys who were previously on second tier contracts are now pushing for selection in firsts, Once those guys come into calculations you need to make room in the top 25.

I think that's a first GNR, I agree with you. In saying that I don't think he will be missed and it gives a chance for one of our younger guys like Paseka or Marsters to step up… Good luck Kyle with your future, all the best
