Hmmm the fact that Ikin said “Billy won’t be coming here this year “ has me thinking that maybe we’ve missed out on TPJ. Would have thought it’s a straight swap.

Would we need the trade for TPJ this year?
Or could we still get him without one

Does anyone else smell something really off here? Lee stating Tigers will announce a new signing in the coming days then this story drops this afternoon. Please dear God just let it be pure coincidence...........


MILFORD’S MYSTERY NRL SUITOR

New Corp is reporting the 27-year-old is in “advanced stages of brokering a deal” to ensure that fresh environment is still in the NRL.

Milford’s suitor is unknown at this stage, but he has been linked to the Rabbitohs with Jason Demetriou taking over as coach next season. The two have worked together at the Broncos.

It's interesting...

With Billy almost confirmed to Broncos, maybe a player swap is on the cards, sweetening the deal.

Hopefully it's Tevita not Milford though.
Walters is for 2022 he is off contract

Yeah, see how it plays out...
With TPJ suspended maybe they'll make it a move for the rest of this season too...

Billy doesn't really add anything to our roster.

No but it would have made sense for Walters to go Broncs this year and TPJ to come in return.

That'd be our luck

Matterson and aloiai were big losses for us

Corey Thompson too ?

Honestly Matterson is the only one. And it’s taken him over a season to get back to the same form he was in when he played at the tigers.

That what I was thinking.

I was thinking the opposite, the Broncos upgraded Willison as there was interest from 4 Clubs so that makes 31 contracted players, so they need to shed 1, there has been no announcement from the dogs,(the cool off period expired yesterday),the Dragons the 3rd club interested have increased their offer for Finucane, so the Tigers may pull a Bradbury in landing him.

No guarantee Brisbane would have fitted him and might also want to use cash to top up Haas

If we let billy go as a swap deal for tpj it would leave us short a player as we only have one spot left to fill.
So it makes sense to let him go there next year.

I'm hoping that because Dogs have not announced TPJ yet as they are normally quick, that might mean we are still in with a chance. What does concern me is that none of the forum reliable posters have said anything in days.. Fingers crossed for some good news soon
 
I wouldn’t expect we would have announced TPJ this week even if we were to have signed him with us playing them this week even though he is out. But I’ve already prepared myself to the fact he isn’t coming, if we do happen to sign him it will be a nice surprise.
