OFFICIAL Liam Fulton [Discussion]

On facebook, he had surgery Monday for his wrist fractured vs Chooks. It was left in a splint with the hope it would repair, but no good…. so he went under the knife. 6 weeks before he can play. should be enough time.

Wests Tigers have received a significant boost heading into the 2013 Telstra Premiership season with hard working forward Liam Fulton today signing a new three-year deal.

Off contract at the end of this year, Fulton will now remain at Wests Tigers until the end of the 2016 season.

The representative forward made his NRL debut for Wests Tigers against the Warriors in 2003 and is a key member of the pack.

“I’m really pleased with this new contract. Wests Tigers mean everything to me and I can’t wait for the season to begin,’’ Fulton said.

“To be a one NRL club player means a lot to me. I’ve still got plenty to offer and I’m looking forward to developing my game even more over the next few seasons under our new Coach Mick Potter.”

Potter said Fulton was a key member of the squad.

“Liam’s utility value and experience are real positives for us and I’m confident that he will play an integral role this year and beyond,’’ Potter said.

I needed something to fire me up today and this is it. Best news since the coaching appointment. Quality player, very under rated, even by us fans. Plays well above his weight.

Good times.
 
Hmmmm…..not a great signing for mine.

Don't get me wrong, I think Liam has been a great servant and I am proud of his work for us. However, mostt judges can't find a starting spot for him this year. The chances of him still being in firsts by 2015 seem remote to me at best.

I would have given him a 1 year extension to help bring the kids in but that would have been it.
 
Fantastic thoroughly deserved of this contract ….. took 1 for the club a couple of years ago when we needed some salary cap relief and he went to Huddersfield for a year , very underated and works tirelessly and never gives up, hopefully Bryce Gibbs comes back in a couple of years and they both go out with a Premiership along with Farrah and Marshall what a story that would be ..... we can always dream can't we ?
 
Yeh Im a bit torn on it too….he is a favourite, but I was hoping we might for a change start to look at some size and muscle in the forwards
How long is Anasta here for?>

Very generous deal imo
 
3 years was probably a little long, but the bloke has busted his hump and punched above his weight for us to deserve another contract. He may drift out to the bench in the next few years but I still believe he has plenty to offer.
 
Yeh and dont forget Braith Anasta is only here for until next year so we still need experience with youth im glad we re signed him long term he is part of the future since were in a new era now.
 
Congrats to Liam …Heart n Soul...agree with Bogan ..well said

but contracts dont mean much if recent history is to go by ...see Bryce

Hope he sees it out
