Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Don't we still have Luciano for next year? If so we are in a strong position to ask for a very good player in return if the Cowboys want him for 2022 or keep him for the year. Win/win.

There’s a decent chance that he wouldn’t be in our Top 13 next year so I agree, let’s get something for him.

Shouldn't of been in it this year.
Impact bench forward.

If we get a Tapine, Luki, we're making moves.

 

[Eternal Tiger]

Pretty sure Tapine is an anti vaxxer

 

[Deleted member 3518]

Given recent history his bags are probably already packed.

We are pathetically weak when it comes to holding players to their contract

Are you that worried really though ? He’s amazing in attack but infuriating in defence. His half would always cover tackle for him whichever side he was on . That’s literally the opposite to what should happen .
If he contributes 1-2 tries a game , he either directly or indirectly lets in a few more . He’s a negative +\- player IMO.
He was lots of fun to watch though I’ll give him that . Perfect bench player .

Not a Sheens type of guy.
Knew this would happen...

Not mad tho.

Cotric to Raiders.
Tapine to Tigers.

Wait and see.

God I hope so . Although tapine kicking rocks last year , and our history with rock kickers , might be a recipe for disaster . But it could be he thinks Ricky is a knob ? Wouldn’t be the first .

Correct. Luki and Nanai are my top picks, two young talented players. Not many other players worth having a look at

Murray Tualagi and Hamasi Tabuo-Fidow are definitely worth looking at

Hmmm, so now WT are bargaining (I imagine it's the brilliant combination of Pascoe, Sheens and McDonnell) with the Cowboys who punted Sheens before he took over at WT a millennium ago, and was subsequently punted by WT and twice since then by 2 ESL clubs, to come to some agreement? Heaven help us.

You're talking bollocks mate

Mr Hair Colouring Pascoe ..


It’s great to speculate for entertainment purposes.

Perhaps Tartak said Leilua is leaving regardless? Or maybe pacscoe said come back when you have a sensible price, like around 500? Or maybe Sheens had no interest in keeping him so said don’t waste an email chasing him? Now we can choose to have the upper hand in negotiations with the cowboys for 2022.

If 700k is the price I wouldn’t negotiate with him either . That’s outrageous money for dude who is destined to wear the 15 jersey moving forward .

But the desperation of the cowboys to have any relevance whatsoever has lead to this . Much like when Marsters left , Luciano would be crazy not to take the money . He was not getting a cent over 500k I reckon from anyone else .

The club is an absolute joke every player we are linked to does not sign we needed Hodgson for creativity & leadership they should have paid whatever difference in money there was we will not be going up the ladder with Liddle at hooker.

You are advocating paying 800-900K for Josh Hodgson? No thanks. Tigers were right to stick to their guns.

 

[Elderslie_Tiger]

A GOOD player but it's a shame he doesn't play to the level the Cowboys are prepared to pay him $700k anyway sit back pass the popcorn and see what eventuates

 

[WT46]

Tarktak is also the fool that manages addo clown i mean carr

 

[AL The Tiger]

It's a shame because Lucy was one of my favourites but 700k is pretty ridiculous. All I can hope for is the bloke honours the rest of his contract and puts in for 2022

 

[Telltails]

I will interested to see what Sheens does now that LL has reportedly asked for immediate release.

He's requesting an early release
😂

I just saw on foxtel the 2019 match between Parra and Wests tigers at the then new Bankwest stadium. Tigers were well and truly smashed in this match. Nothing has really changed with WEsts tigers since that match. I recommend that sheens, Maguire and Co look at this match to see how much we have transgrest again from this match. WEsts tigers need to really spen and spend wisely their cash on good players as soon as possible. What are they waiting for? The club has the money.

So much for changes...same shit different day

You have to ask yourself why is it that Tigers players always want an early release from their contract but when we sign Papalii he honours his. It's a part of the clubs culture that needs to be changed

Sheens and Payten will come to an agreement.

Well going into 2022 luch is probably on 300 odd ? If you’ve got someone willing to pay 400k extra as early as next season, you’d likely jump

Papalii's only earning $150k for the upcoming season and yet he isn't chucking a fit and asking for a release. Our club gets no respect from the players and something needs to change. The Storm, Roosters, Parra rarely have players chucking fits and asking for releases because they're professional. Us on the other hand, have a player or two asking for an early release every off season.
