Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I disagree. The club has increased funding and resources for development, junior districts and to retain our best U20s players. It has also committed to increasing funding each year for this purpose. This is far from just a PR stunt and are very real initiatives which resulted in the club retaining the Large brothers, bringing the young half Alex Isdale to the club.

Fair enough but I don't know if it will.

Hooper has lost all credibility with his Munster story beginning with "the way we've heard it the Tigers are talking about". Some unnamed Tiger who can't talk to Munster before November 1st told someone who told Hooper? This reeks of cash for comments with Hooper passing on Anasta's rubbish to the media without naming him as the source and getting him deregistered. From the Tigers point of view it's borderline libel.

Munster met with Sheens and Benji last Friday face to face, Braith was with them. More to come

More dramas and heartache with a saga like Lord of the Rings🙂

PS I always appreciate your posts but I'm finding it very hard to positive about anything the club does atm.

NRL news |$7 million deal for Cameron Munster to join Wests Tigers 'ridiculous' says Tim Sheens

Fair play to Tim for getting out and putting the breaks on this story, but I'm not sure his inference that we don't need any outside assistance is a winning message.

Doubt if true it came from us.
Shame 360 isn’t on tonight as be interesting to see Braith get quizzed on it & his reaction.

These things come from somewhere. I doubt it came from Sheens but someone at the board or somewhere probably made a comment on it and Hooper ran with it.

Given Braith and Hooper work together, they would know whether it's true or not before posting the article.

I tend to agree but Ipap and Api don’t fit into either 1 or 2.

True but I’m taking them as existing now. Talking about others.
Agree with your other comments though !

Good response from Tim and yes, the inference is with a full strength squad and a couple of key new players, we can be competitive.
Now like everything , only time will tell.

Lucky boy but methinks he’s a problem child !

I try to keep an open mind but to me this is the reality. Braith’s just leveraging melboune. Him saying “it’s good signs” when Melbourne have upped their offer means: you’re heading in the right direction, need to up it more.

There’s no harm in throwing a huge offer out there for him. Also puts the pressure on the NRL to uphold the integrity (lol) of the salary cap.

I'm usually quite optimistic and I would love for it to come through, but Braith takes every opportunity to bag the club after his stint with us. If he was to then talk his number 1 client into going to the Tigers, I would be shocked.

Are you serious. If this is true it would have made front page of the telecrap.

Ha . It doesnt have to be true to be on the telecrap

I think it’s a good headline for Hoops, sells papers,nothing more.
From Tim’s prompt and vociferous response it seems highly unlikely.

I call her the CEO , Financial Controller and Operations Manager.l, at different times.
See, all the Tigers need is a ruthless female in charge.
She could do three jobs on one salary !
Marina Go where are you ?

Hang on, gotta go and hang out the washing before I vacuum.
I know, whipped like a mangey dog but between you and I, it’s ok.
She’s an awesome cook and partner. 40 something years testament to that.
