Michael Jennings To Tigers ??

If this turns out to be true with the $600,000 plus price tag i would be bitterly disappointed. Penrith have been trying to get rid of him because he's not worth that much on a week to week basis. Shocking attitude also.

Couldn't agree more, there is no way he is worth 600k. And if we have 600k to spare surely we could spend it better.
 
I hope we have learned from the Blair experience not to pay too much for players that are not consistent high level performers.
 
There is no way Jennings is going to come to us, unless there is a source that has said he has signed with us then I will believe it when I see it.
 
Well we have our salary cap - if you don't think we will be spending the full amount then your kidding yourself

imo Nofoaluma is the best fullback in the club. Just needs the chance to prove it. He is a freak.

I believe he'd go better at fullback than Jennings.
 
I hope theres no substance to this….Jenko on massive $$$$ with four years??? remaining, he has ego and attitude problems

Christ......HOW ABOUT WE SIGN A HalFBACK?????
 
Agree Ink..forget Jennings.. Just buying more expensive trouble we don't need at the moment.. We whinge all year about not having a half and contemplate spending 500-600k on a centre..can't figure that out
 
Im sure we still have money left for a big signing we lost gareth ellis beau ryan and chris hegino and there is still 13 players of contract but hopfully its Jennings or a halfback. But hopfully we sign a prop to.

Maybe because there are no halfbacks on the market?

We have bought Braith Anasta to play halfback & if we don`t stick with that idea we have arguably the best U/20`s halfback running around in Jacob Miller. If we were to look at a steady halfback with a strong kicking game and who can defend like a backrower then Trent Hodkinson would be the one to persue.

we just need a solid half back look at what the dogs have done with keating not a world beater just solid

Don`t forget they have players such as Ben Barba, Josh Morris & Krisnan Inu who have the individual brilliance to beat their opponent one on one. We don`t have backs with this same ability, hence the reason I`m sure we are looking at Michael Jennings.

Amen to that. Every other post here seems to be "we should sign a halfback". Yes, this is true. Now who would that be exactly?
 
One of only half a dozen guys playing that is truly an excitement machine with the ball in his hand.
Why would we want him? :crazy

Yeh….we got more pressing issues like sacking a coach without having a ready made replacement yet.

They had excuses after Luis incident....but theyve had more than a year now...dont make excuses for ineptitude
 
These high $$$'s will become a norm for Rep Players over the next 2 years to ensure they get the biggest slice of the new pie.

A player like Jennings who (in my view) are on $300-350k will start getting $500-600k… When I first look at the $850k on offer for Robbie at Parramatta, I was thinking its ridiculous. But with the Cap increasing every year over 5, $850k may be the right price?

Thurston or Inglis will be the first to get $1M
