Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

There was a time when people used to say that JAC loves the Tigers - pretty sure when he left it was said he had the desire to return one day.

Haven't really seen that, especially since we missed out on him when he signed with the Dogs.

I'd take him back in a heartbeat. We would need to give him a decent centre though.

Olam!

That ship has sailed.

He never would have left in the first place if he really loved the club

Didn’t he get moved on by Taylor or Ivan?

Didn’t Pascoe go on holiday right in the middle of his contract negotiations?

As Johnny Utah said, “He ain’t coming back”.

And while he was away he couldn’t wait to sign for the club he loved and signed with the Storm.
Good move really, he’s got a ring none of our players have playing here.

The 2025 season is a mutual option with a clause that if we miss finals in 2024, his contract can be voided for ‘25.

He’s indicated he’d like to re-sign but the 2025 season isn’t locked in yet.

OK but still no need for an extension just yet. Even if he wanted to activate the clause he'd have to wait until September 2024.

Utah! Get me two

Why does he have to wait till September 2024? Can’t he just say to the club it’s kool I’m in and if the club wants him go sweet we’ll get the paperwork organised.

I understand that the club halted all recruitment until the review is finished

We’ve extended Twal & Seyfarth since the review started & appointed Aaron Payne as Cup coach. Football recruitment has to continue, however Senior Admin reccruitment may be halted.

Club didn’t want him. Didn’t suit the power game the coach wanted to play. One of the dumbest recruiting decisions. Coaches make or break clubs

And with a 2year deal at Penrith he won’t actually lose any money over a larger 4year deal. In 2 years he will earn more than he is getting now

I’d say his 2 year deal includes a bump up for next year just to keep him interested. So effectively a restructured 3 year deal.

He said this to me at Concord at the end of his last season with us.

Quite a lot of time has passed, not sure if it would mean much now, but who knows.

Why?

Im pretty sure they can walk and chew gum at the same time..

"Alot cheaper than $1m"? Don't know if I believe that.
Halves are a premium, and SOO halves are even worse. Not saying that he's all that and a bag of chips but the kid can play, and if the Dragons want him they will need to front up the cash just like us.
Prior to us signing any of our halves, I said we should be in the race for him.
I think the Cows will do whatever they can to keep him but as @tigerballs said their cap is a problem. I can see him moving, and it won't be for much less than $1m a year...

I think this makes some sense. Both play for QLD. I’m sure he’d like the given opportunity to play/learn under Hunt. That’d be a deadly combo and probably the signing of the year.

Swap deal Matterson for JAC...why can't we swap Nofo for someone....anyone

That ship has sailed. We had our chance with Melbourne ffs

Roy Masters is reporting in the SMH that the Wests Tigers finished the 2023 $1.4 million in the red.

Well done to everyone involved at the club....
