There is a bit of talk that Sammy Burgess may return to Souffs for 2021 season the time off has done wonders for his shoulder so that should be a good job for PVL to work out hope he does will put more pressure on the cap

If he does they should have whatever he was mean to be paid this year out of their cap for next season.

if V'Landys let's that slide after the payout and cap relief souffs copped then everything he has said about being accountable counts for zilch.

NRL will have to have a real good look what has gone there take an injured player out of your cap for 12 months sign Latrine it just goes on

Is Wests Tigers still paying the $350 K fine relating to Farah's retirement?

I haven't seen much lower grade footy for quite some time, would those that have say that Kei is a better prospect than Talau?

When he came from Parra, good judges reckoned he was a better signing than Stefano.

hey mate, you heard anything new on the recruitment front?

The big Simpkins kid from the Cowboys seems to be the hot deal, Cows want to keep him but WT's are offering more. He's in NZ though so the talks are protracted but we're keen. He's big but he's green and still has a bit to learn. Burton from Penrith was almost a done deal until Bulldogs joined the race. Panthers are prepared to let him go as there was a lot of interest which they can't match once his contract is up next year. WT thought they had him but dogs and others started asking questions.

Throw the Latchem Robinson Stand at him.

AFB seems to have kept his nose clean after an incident when he was 19 and I hear he is a good family man from people down here who know him better than me. I saw Dylan Walker, wife and son at the Mall yesterday and they looked like a happy family. People make mistakes, it's how they learn from them that matters
Vaccinations are a personal issue, if you want to take them good luck to you, if not that's fine too, I don't label people who's personal choice differs from mine
Good luck to AFB I say, great player who deserves better than some of the comments here

Players wanted him gone. He's a kook and divides the playing group. Half baked preacher who doesn't know when to stop and Des didn't like him.

Any word on Staines/Burton TB?

BTW, there's a LOT of talk Harry will be a Tiger next year.

Thanks for all the updates, this one is a beauty, if so surely Liddle is gone, Simpkin will be the back up hooker, and yeh we need Tamau to get in Burton's ear, then we will have a real shot at finals footy.

Not necessarily so, maybe he may play him at lock or in the halves. Who knows?

Maybe Russ, but have you noticed Liddle has been getting less minutes lately, now he is not in the team at all

Both he and GI got out of their contracts with no cap penalty and got jobs at the club, and both want to play again now, the NRL love their rabbits, meanwhile we are still paying our cap fine

Think he wants to give him more time, especially keeping him away from those "Big Boppers" in the Storm pack only having a couple of games back after rehab. I'm sure he had to play Grant against the Storm - it was a no brainer Mate.

It certainly appeared as though the ref wanted them to win last night.

I've got a mate in the running to coach Souths Harold Matts next year and he's been told Sammy will be coaching Souths SG Ball team.

If Turdberg was still in charge it would be allowed to happen with his blessing

I believe Cam Smith will make up his mind after Grand Final. If Storm win he will retire like other past greats - Price, Cronin, Big Mal, Cooper Cronk and Webcke all played last game Grand Final winners. If they lose or don't make GF I can see him going around again so he leaves Storm with Bellamy. Harry Grant like Ellis would be our greatest signing and a game charger for WT. I would make him captain.

They better give Latrell back to the Chooks then, only reason they could afford him was because of Sammy’s ‘retirement’
