Adam Doueihi is staying put after informing St George Illawarra that he plans to accept a revised two-year deal from the Wests Tigers.
Doueihi never wanted to leave the Tigers but he was dangerously close to parting ways with the club after they tabled an initial one year extension and the Dragons weighed in with an extra year,
However, the Tigers came back to the table with a revised offer after Doueihiu starred for the club in their win over the Bulldogs at the weekend.
It is understood the Tigers deal is close to $400,000 a season, short of the Dragons’ bid but enough to convince Doueihi to spurn the Dragons’ offer to secure his signature.

2 years for $400k a year is a great deal for us.
If we can keep Taateo and Rahme on development deals we are doing well, both are under rated and will continue to improve.
Tu’itupou gives us a big strong yardage eater back up for Skelton which is not a bad idea. Keeping him motivated at this late stage of his career could be an issue.
I’m not convinced on KMaps, he’s big, strong and athletic so he looks the part, but hasn’t really shown a willingness to use his size and athleticism by running the ball hard with purpose and he’s had some ordinary defensive efforts. I would only offer him a development deal.
We've got 5 players on development deals for 2026
Lachlan B
Phoenix G
Jared H
Christian Taupau-Moors
Charlie Murray
Believe only 6 positions are available for development players

I am crazy but have to believe that very soon Logan Deininger from our Flegg team will be back depth. That kid is something.
Might find himself as a very important player soon enough, especially if Bulas future is unclear.
Hmmm that is not an overly good looking list as the 3 youngsters are unlikely to be NRL ready next season and Lachlan B and Charlie Murray don’t do much for the excitement levels.
Hopefully they can offload Lachlan B and Charlie Murray to allow space for players such as Peter Tasteo, Jaxson Rahme and one other which could potentially be someone like Max Taotua.
They are keeping the value players and leaving money for some BIG plays on November 1.

Richo doing Richo things. Few on here wanted to chuck a Pascoe and lob him marquee money.

Doueihi staying along with a few other Moses clients.
Moses is a germ, but maybe Galvin and his dad were the problem with him. Moses just undertook the dirty tactics to get his client what he wanted.

I say this every year but how is there possibly any squeeze on our salary cap? The only player on real big money is Luai.
There could be a squeeze on top 30 spots but surely we are well under the cap given we threw a mil at Galvin and lost a few players released early.
13 should now be sorted between Latu and AD. Sign Taylan May and a starting impact prop and we are good.

I’d say we are looking to keep Bula, Luai, Api, upgrade May. KPP wouldn’t be cheap. Few of those guys are on overs. Then we have historically overpaid our average backs. And paying a few guys to play elsewhere. Don’t see how we ever had a war chest.
Good player. Ordinarily I'd be happy with him at the club except that I want whatever cap we have left going towards forwards.
