Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I’m reliably told money is of very high importance to Adam Doueihi.
You don’t know how much we are paying him yourself, so it’s best not to question others if you have no idea what you are talking about.
Reliably by who?

I don't profess to know what I'm talking about. I just look at the public reports...by people who have genuine connections in the game (managers, players, coaches).

Richo himself is quoted saying last offer when asked if we'd bump it up.

You know more than Richo?

I’m saying based on what I know, there is a possibility a 3rd party sponsorship deal could have been part of the deal to help get Douehi’s signature across the line.
If that is true, it’s great for Wests Tigers and our salary cap management.

“Based on what I know” … then details total speculation

If that is the case through club would be in deep trouble. TPA can have nothing to do with the club. We know these types of thing go on but you won't get an admission from anyone so either way it is all speculation.
 
I think you're on the money, V.

I think we'll see a couple of surprising names move early in the next couple of months.

'Surprising' in that they're not the Feledys or Tumeths of the world, but I think those names, particularly Hunt and Bird, may well fall out the back door pretty quickly.
Jack Bird, he could be an important piece in what positions we are still recruiting depth for.

I don't think we'll be able to move him on nor do I think he'll want to go or retire. But he still can provide some value as a depth piece.

What position could this primarily be for?

I think either Benji still sees him as a bench utility to cover backrow, centre, lock or just as a depth centre to predominantly play NSW Cup and add experience to this team (and be called upon if absolutely required).
 
We're gonna have some tall timber in the engine room next season joining Sam Fanua.

Samuela Fainu - 194cms - 109kgs - 21 years young - 2nd row
Maverik Geyer - 191cms - 104kgs - 24 years young - 2nd row
Ethan Roberts - 195cms - 105kgs - 20 years young - 2nd row
Kai Pearce-Paul - 198cms - 108kgs - 24 years young - 2nd row
Just to play devils advocate here

Alex Seyfarth - 191 cm - 104kg - 26 years young - 2nd row/lock

NSW Cup should be competitive next year if we stay healthy
 
Maybe we can get Lewis Dudd.

Would be the only time we've ever been successful in getting a player exchange. 🤣🤣
Why on earth would we want him, he's been proven at south he can't handle the weekly grind of the NRL, yet Ur suggesting we buy him, FFS

You make a lot of assumptions and speculative remarks based on absolutely nothing.

Let me tell you something. We live in an age where information travels very fast and have access to a huge amount of resources to fact check or at least deduce a fairly accurate probability of something being true.

All you've said is your mate...who none of us know...and you won't mention the source...has supposedly said money is important to Adam. The report comes out that he's signed for less than what you originally thought and you come up with some story about 3rd parties to buttress your narrative.

If your mate knew something, chances are he's not the only one and multiple people would have heard the same.

You take a skerret of information and turn it into your own personal fantasy. I think you have an over-active imagination.

Maybe there is a 3rd party, but nothing, anywhere, has been written about it and no one has mentioned it other than you.
