As Marty is contracted to the Tigers next year,he must have the Tigers permission to negotiate.
**RUMOUR** Martin Taupau to the Titans.
- Thread starter underdog
- Start date
Why do idiots post these types of things. Just adds fuel to the fire.
Next the Daily Telecrap will pick this up and run with it.
I love this forum but can not stand idiots who put up these types of threads.
Taupau has to be my favourite player at the moment. Shame we cna not clone him as we need him to start and his impact from the bench.
Still can't beleive the Dogs let him go and kept Frank and Sam. (so over rated)

Why did we let Koro and Fifita go? Some players just grow another leg at a new club in a new environment. Taupau could easily still be languishing in NSW cup at the Dogs. Some guys just need a change of scenery to click. He's not the first that its happened to, and won't be the last.

I struggle to fathom he would be on anything over $250k.
We virtually signed him while he was stuck playing NSW Cup at the Bulldogs (he was behind some pretty good names there), and now he has gone on to represent NZ he may have had some bonuses to maybe get him to that $250k mark?
I don't recall any Upgrades/Extensions being announced while at the Tigers.

He's just getting the rumors in nice and early. End of the year you will see pictures of him in Gold Coast looking at apartments, then we will hear about his friendship with all the boys at the bulldogs, then we will see a signature for a big juicy WT contract. If you ask me it will be well deserved…just got to do the sales 101 song and dance

The cap is 6.55 mil this year going up to 7mil in a couple yes. At this yrs cap split between 25 players the average is $262k. He is very close to our best player this year so I don't think 600k would be out of the question. Woods and farah apparently both over 800 per season.

No doubt his market value has shot up this year with form shown.
I'd be mighty pissed if he left us though.

Taupau would be flat out being on 300 absolute best case scenario
He has a starting role now , which would of been the only reason I could see he might want to leave
Would be shocked if he did leave , but as I said about Prince I was amazed he left
He even told his cousin he was staying a Tiger

He may only be on 300k or less due to us signing him straight out of lower grades but he is now worth significantly more. He is now one of the premium enforcers in the nrl. He is now a international ( for the tri nations champions). His value has skyrocketed. To say his value is 300k max when the average is 262k in a 25 man squad is ridiculous.
