Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[GNR4LIFE]

Imagine being the mother of his kids and
hearing him say he's going to forgo 1.2m
just so he could stay at a club & play with
his mates haha. Take the bag 2 the bank!

Poor dude can’t be expected to raise his kids on 850k

The only reason I recognise your name is cause you’re the poster who just comes on and casually hates on other posters for their opinions and tries to embrace this tough guy persona that doesn’t suit someone hiding behind a profile. You hate on the club constantly and put others down for what reason?

I work within the sporting industry and I’m not claiming to be Jesus. It’s not that hard to build some connections and hear some talk going around. Everyone knows everyone.

I send whatever I hear to try light this forum up and create some positive energy - mainly because of posters like you who try do the opposite. If you don’t enjoy some posts there’s a block option happy for you to look into that if you please. I understand some people get bored and they find enjoyment in putting others down - but get a hobby or something don’t bring that stuff into our beloved Wests Tigers Forum.

Keep on ripping in Teddy, good to read something on here different to the usual dribble.

For four years. That's three-quarters of a million dollars....

....in the hand.

Being 'the guy' at Wests' also has the potential to increase his standing in the game.

If there's no premiership at the end of it how will it?

 

[weststigers]

How can you actually sign any decent players if they never take our money? 😂

It would make him one of the highest paid players in the game and he is still considering Penrith.

Is the salary cap an effective way of distributing talent?

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

I think that could be a massive selling point, being the man to bring the tigers back as a finals team, could you imagine the plaudits that player receives, would go down in history and would become an automatic club legend.... yes plenty of pressure on the shoulders, but would be better then taking the easy road and going to someone like souffs who are there or there about, always close to being top 8...

Luai has the opportunity to come to the Wests Tigers to be the main man & a guiding presence for our young stars like Bula, Fainu, Galvin, Da Silva & co.

If I was him, I would be thinking of the legendary status he would receive if he led us to the promised land.

And with the likes of Api, Bula and a potential protege in Latu Fainu in the spine with him guided by his hero Benji, it is not impossible!

Yes he could go on to win 1 or 2 more premierships at the Panthers but he will always be remembered in Cleary's shadow.

Here he could become a king, earn lots more money & etch his name in folklore.

hahaha I just get amused calling bullshit when bullshit artists are seeking a pat on the back for spreading bullshit. You are merely the latest one to try their hand at it.
My brother's, girlfriends, hairdresser said she heard from their dentist that.....fill in the blanks...

Each to there own my dear friend, seems like you need some positivity in your life. Hopefully the festive season helps you out.

 

[WestsEffTheRest]

The amount of sex that you said is on offer there drives me away. Each to their own though....

Not sure why whenever we engage in conversation you feel the need to bring up I went to Prison. It was the darkest time of my life & it's not something i'm proud of.

 

[Kaito]

Now now boys, let's not cannibalise one
another again, not worth it. Hopefully we
can get some good news soon & come
2gether again. Off season & hot weather
got us all a bit flustered. It's going 2 B ok

 

[tigerman 0]

Enough, girls. Its boring af for the rest of us

 

[coivtny]

Teddy23's Rumours seem half credible and more interesting than reading about Misty Hyman which was funny about 15 years ago.

No, it's still funny. It will always be funny just like Biggus Dickus, Richard Cranium and Captain Kremmen of the Star Corps who said to Carla "Carla, I can see Uranus from here".

My thoughts as well BWG. Go 4 the road
less travelled & the glory. Set your family
up — or undercut yourself & be comfortable.
He's got it in him to be 'the man'. Let's see

Drivel.

That's what I see too. He'll never be a "Benji Marshall" while behind Cleary. But he may well be if he can rebuild the Tigers.

I think the squad we're assembling can do some serious damage.

Hopefully Benji has sold all this to him.

Man hes one crazy mothertucker

Don't know what he wrote but ignore it mate. If you have been to prison and think back on it the way you do then you have totally made amends and your past is forgotten as far as I'm concerned.

 

[supercoach]

I actually think Luai will stay put at Riff on a three year deal for less coin. Close to home, familiar surroundings, old mates and a real chance of more silverware.

In saying that we give him the chance to get out of the Cleary shadow. What ever Riff do the media turn their praise to Cleary and seldom guys like Fisher Harris, Yeo and Luai get enough praise for their contributions as Junior Jaw is the NRL poster boy. If by some miracle he came and turned our joint around the media would turn him into a poster boy.

Be interesting how it pans out

 

[KingRobbie]

Any more personal stuff will result in long-term bans.

That's what I see too. He'll never be a "Benji Marshall" while behind Cleary. But he may well be if he can rebuild the Tigers.

Everyone is going hard on this kind of narrative. It’s easy for our supporters to see the positives in that because they are passionate about the joint. But he’s a born and bred Panther who probably has never wanted to play anywhere else. We’re a basket case and he has a lot to weigh up. I think how we run our club will be weighing more heavily on him than the fairytale idea of coming and taking the club from the outhouse to the penthouse. He has more important things to consider before that. In saying all that, I’m still confident. He’s probably looking at earning at least 600-700k more over the span of our contract as opposed to Penrith. That’s a big difference.
