Official - Josh Reynolds Signs Megathread

[851]

Success comes at a cost. You play hard or go home. Tigers have been SOFT for years. Adding some players with a hardened edge and do or die competitive spirit isn't a bad thing. Packer/Reynolds etc bring that grit that every team needs

Have you heard any indication of the money Reynolds will be on, or have the 360 clowns got it spot on?

FOX have actually reported it as 3 million over 4 years, or $750k a year, Kent just refuses to report the facts as it doesn't suit his agenda.

It's a tick over 700k a season. Don't know what they said on 360 but it's not the 950k being spoken about. Not even close to that.

Is Packer still on the radar?

 

[Tigerdon]

Anyone else thinking what's with our recent signings waiving cooling off periods? Attempt at enticing a couple local juniors to stick around before it's too late? or loading us up with as much good news as possible before breaking us the bad news?

I'm still hoping Teddy will stay. Is that too much to ask?!

Backdoor indicated Teddy and Woods were gone.

He has an offer and it hasn't been rejected. Similar to matualino offer. Don't know if the dragons can match it.

They were force to pay more than they hoped for Widdop and will likely pay more for Dugan. There whole pack is pretty good this year, so Packer might be squeezed out.

So Matulino replaces Woods and Packer replaces Ava? If that's the case I wonder if Sue would move back into the prop rotation, particularly if we pick up another back rower. Would be a shame losing Ava.

Watching NRL 360 tonight and it must be hard for them to say the tigers have done well… NO just point out negatives etc...
When they said we should of signed Cronk or Foran I was thinking have they lost it..
Foran is already going to the dogs (Des is like a father to him) and if we wait until after SOO all the other good players would be gone and we are up s*** creek with no paddle if Cronk retires.

I was expecting them to say well done to the tigers on moving forward in a positive direction BUT NO..

Look at the Warriors, Knights, and Panthers - These are the clubs that they should be talking about not us now.

Well done Clearly and Co.

Was Woods on there tonight?

Zilch

 

[Sardaukar]

I wonder what that means…. Probably over thinking it.

Cool. I'll keep my fingers crossed then.

Dragons just opened negotiations with Packer. He agreed to wait til Widdop/Dugan were sorted.

Listening to James Graham talk and it told me 3 things
1\. Josh Reynolds is a great signing for this club - Ivan continues to add a hard edge on the field but also the right people off the field

2\. If we can get James Graham for 2 yrs as Captain and prop then we need to do that too

3\. **No one has spoken about the players leaving the Tigers like that none of their team mates nor are they likely too**

Chris Lawrence had only good things to say about Woods the other day, but you obviously missed that. Not to mention, they haven't officially gone yet, Reynolds has.

Well normally players are on Tuesday night and legends are Wednesday so considering there was no 360 last night because of the Anzac Day games they went with 1 player 1 legend

I'd pick Graham to appear on my show over woods if I could only pick one too

Backdoor… haha you mean trapdoor... WTF would he know

Probably more than all of us seeing as he's related to all their managers
