Thanks mate👍.

Tamou talking about his Panthers again😂

Hopefully our boy Logen Dillon is in NQ just to visit his friend Kane Bradley...

... and not to discuss his career options. 🤠

Would be a fair log jam up there with Hamiso a sure starter and Holmes paid big money to originally play fb (even though he will play elsewhere to start the year). Drinkwater might also find himself back there this year too with Townsend and Dearden in the halves.

A bit of patience should see him in our Top 30 soon enough. Just needs seem NSW Cup experience to fine tune some areas of his game.

Indeed. Speculation...

Hoping its just to visit an old friend and nothing more.

 

[batboy]

Correct.

Covid Szn tho.
All likelihood he plays some this year.

I'd assume To'a is next in line if Laurie gets injured tho.

I see your thinking, But surely if that's the case - To'a starts the first trial?

Yeah hopefully just a last little get away before the season starts.

I just got back from up that way...
He's not going up there a week before kick off to visit old mates!!
No way....

Yeah, pre season with the cutters.

Kane Bradley was here for the past few days and it seems Logen is up there now.

Could be nothing.
Hopefully, is nothing.

How old is Dillon, I'd have though Bradley would have a couple years on him at least??

Wasn't there a post advising Hill is in talks with the Roosters and WTs?

They played together and seem quite close.
Maybe a year difference ?

I saw that post....
Think that person also may have removed their account so unsure of the truth behind it.

Hoping we hear something offical about Nikora and Pele coming to Tigers sometime next week

 

[Glenji95]

Yeah hopefully just a last little get away before the season starts.

I wouldn’t be too worried at this stage probably just mates catching up before the season starts for both of them

But but but he was our best player in 2021.

Sounds like the arguments the Brooks lovers use about his award from 2018

FLANO EYES SHARKS RAIDS

Shane Flanagan brought Briton Nikora to the Cronulla Sharks as a Kiwi rookie and Holden Cup player back in 2016.

Six years later Flanagan is keen on signing him again – this time in his new role as the recruitment boss of the St George-Illawarra.

The 24-year-old Kiwi international is off contract at the end of the season and has already spoken to his New Zealand Test coach Michael Maguire about switching to the Wests Tigers.

The Dragons are also interested. Much will depend on Jack Bird’s future. Bird is looking at other options after rejecting the Dragons’ offer for a new deal worth around $500,000-a-season.

The Sharks want to keep Nikora but are reluctant to get into a bidding war with rival clubs. He played particularly well in the trial against the Bulldogs last week.

Terrible one at that
