Official - Josh Reynolds Signs Megathread

He brings a good kicking game, tenacity, experience in finals and a origin winning half. He is also a leader on the park and that is a quality we are lacking at the moment…

There's no way 950k is accurate. Some of the figures the media throw around are ridiculous. Id be very surprised if it was more than 700k pa off the cap.

Media reported Matulino's contract is 700k pa when its actually 475k pa.

Whoever breaks the story just make up a figure and everyone else runs with it.

I agree. Clearys smart. reynolds would of been cut from team anyway so offer him around 600-650k.

Thats the max id offer.

Absolutely.
What a fantastic signing.
 
We need experience and we need to toughen up. This signing makes sense and gives a good balance with Brooks. They will complement each other well. Don't get the we don't want him he's a grub comments, he will put in 100% and than some every week - this is what this team is missing. Or we could just be the nice guys - "Sorry I didn't mean to tackle you so hard" - screw that let's get under their skin and in their faces, show them who's boos
 
Josh Reynolds signs deal to play with the Wests Tigers from 2018
DAVID RICCIO, The Daily Telegraph
24 minutes ago
OFF-CONTRACT Bulldogs favourite Josh Reynolds has agreed to join the Wests Tigers on a massive four-year deal.
The former State of Origin player told Bulldogs officials yesterday of his decision to join the Tigers before revealing the move to his teammates today.
The deal is believed to be worth up to $950,000 a year and includes a car.
It had been widely tipped Reynolds was headed for the exit after news broke that Kieran Foran would be heading to Belmore next season.
Foran will reunite with former Sea Eagles coach Des Hasler.

He's a goalkicker also isn't he?

5 Field Goals in his Career….

I also think the Amount Reported for signing him is somewhat exaggerated...
 
No, no, no, no, nononononono NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
If as reported it's a $3m deal over 4 years its $750k not $950k a year. Hadley et al should go buy a $5.00 calculator!

Just need Tuimoala Lolohea to sign now, then we would have the following side:

1.Lolohea 2.Nofoaluma 3.Idris 4.Suli 5.Naiqama 6.Reynolds 7.Brooks 8.Matulino 9.McIllwrick 10\. Ava 11.Aloiai 12.Lawrence 13.Taylor 14.Sue 15.Liddle 16.Felise 17.Tatola or Marsters

Hopefully the Tigers we release or not resign the following 7 players: Ballin, T. Grant, Lovett, Rankin, Hunt, LittleJohn and Edwards and go after some other players to fill our squad.

Not a bad plan but I would keep JLJ - good depth player in the halves. With a young halfback and a suspension-prone 5/8, it would be good to have a ready-made half in the squad. He may want to leave if he isn't getting regular 1st grade game time though.

Pascoe has said multiple times, don't believe anything published unless it comes directly from the Wests Tigers.

People still can't help themselves.

So in case people didn't listen to Pascoe the first time around, unless a member of the Tigers management personally comments on something, it's not official, it's speculation.

Think of it like Star Wars. There's a lot of material out there over decades, many nice stories, but if it's not officially published by LucasFilm (aka Disney) then it's not canon.

Mate it could of been worse.

Imagine this spine if we signed no one.

1\. hunt
6\. rankin
7\. littlejohn
9\. liddle.

😂😂
 
I'd rather we explored other options more. He's probaby the best available option in terms of next season but we'll be stuck with him for the 3 after that. Feels like they're chasing immediate results which only seems to work if you're the Roosters and can actually buy the best players, not just the best available players…
 
Forgot to add our English International Chris McQueen into that squad .. !!

Just need Tuimoala Lolohea to sign now, then we would have the following side:
1.Lolohea 2.Nofoaluma 3.Idris 4.Suli 5.Naiqama 6.Reynolds 7.Brooks 8.Matulino 9.McIllwrick 10\. Ava 11.McQueen 12.Lawrence 13.Taylor 14.Sue 15.Liddle 16.Felise 17.Aloiai 18\. Tatola or Marsters

What happened to McQueen Ace?

Did you sell him before he played a game?
