Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Speaking to those close to Jacob Liddle.
He will sign for dogs if Grant is back. ( contract ready)
Tigers want to keep him but He understands situation and club being honest with him which is respected.

assuming this means the club have a contract ($$$) ready to go pending Cam's decision?

Emma Lawrance said today that he had told officials, at the awards early in the night, before he made his announcement on stage that he wasn't going back to Melbourne if Cam was there

Absolute disaster if he goes.

He only goes if Harry stays. Win for everyone (other than Storm) in my eyes.

Disaster? Yes he is starting to play well, (After many injuries) but we would have Grant with a back up of Simpkins... Wouldn't say Disaster

If Cam plays on Harry stays here I don’t see why els he would have announced it at our presso

 

[voice_of_reason]

We've looked really good with both Grant and Liddle on the field. Surely there's a way to make it work.

Quite a change from her chat on Triple MMM where she said "i asked the officials after he mentioned it and they thought he was going back to melbourne"

Certainly hope the latter is correct

Yeah I heard both chats, it sounded like she got more info before being on today.

Smith has been in talks with us for a while. Like I mentioned before simpkins isn't going anywhere.

Smith as in Storms Smith?
Any more info on this...

Here we go again

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

Sell the club to Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich

Or David Traktovenko.

No, or else Melbourne could make it work with Cam.

Whatever happens around our hooker position, we'll end up fine there. Stoked to keep Grant, otherwise happy with Liddle and the potential of Simpkin.

Not if we get grant

Well, take your point - I prefer Liddle.

It would be crazy to let liddle go if it’s only 1 more year of Grant. We aren't in a position to challenge next year.. Both have class, Grant is well ahead, length of commitment has to be looked at as well.

No it would be a proper signing as he has a get out clause so well worth it.

If Grant comes to us next year, it will be more than 1 year. Because he will be released from the storm contract and a free agent. I'd be signing him up for a 10 year contract, $800k a year and $1m if he's playing rep footy.

Build the club around him

The difference is they also have Munster and B Smith/Finucane.

 

[jrtiger]

this hooking situation will now be awesome and suck either way if the mail re Liddle is true.

Yeah Cameron has decided to have his swan song season with the Tigers, meanwhile Harry and Benji are off to the Storm ?

No the NZ Smith as I know no chance of Cameron..

I would be elated with that signing if that's the case.....Brandon is a gun footballer, and seems to be a good presence in the locker room.....can play lock or hooker....delighted if true...and he ran a country mile to stick it up Mahoney after his obstruction play last night so two thumbs up

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

Grant and Simpkin the way of the future, good luck at the dogs Liddle see ya

 

[finnzo]

I don’t understand how people could possibly think us signing grant long term and liddle going to bulldogs is a bad thing? He’s the next Cameron Smith
