Moses Mbye gone for 2022.
Agreement between Tigers & Dragons has been reached. The club will paying 390k for next season.

390k a good deal from wests tigers end well done club

How can you congratulate the club for wasting $400k from its 2022 cap…if I wasted $400,000😱f my company’s money I wouldn’t be getting pats on the back, I’d be in the Centrelink line

Personally I have no problem with it in this form of business.
If he is on 850k like reported it has just freed up 460k and a roster spot for a player that will be in our future plans. I don't see the point in him staying here for another year getting 850k to be a number 14 and take that spot from a guy like Simpkin etc.. We have been on the other end of deals like this lately and its worked out fine - E.g Joe O.
we might even put that towards Conner Watson as he has been talked about.

$390K wasted is better than wasting $850K next year on a bench player.

Are Tigers Signing anyone

Not sure we should know when Round 1 team is named next year.. They are pretty good at keeping members and fans up to date these days.

We have an absolute truck load of money to spend so we’ll probably front load contracts again.

Well I’d say first priority come November 1 is talking to Luch about re signing

Harley Smith-Shields is playing tonight - Does anyone know if we should be watching him closely tonight or not?

Would you rather waste another 850K..

Finally some news on roster change, even if it is costing us $390k to have a player to wear other's colours

So what I don’t understand is why would you negotiate, what I’m essence is a settlement of $390K, to move on Mybe unless you had plans on who your going to spend the money saved on?
With a recent history of missing out on targets, we must be confident in getting some decent players here otherwise some of the guys we currently have are getting a decent pay rise.

I’m not fussed if Luch goes, his defence isn’t up to it. He’d be no big loss.

My priorities would be upgrading and extending Stef, AD and Laurie.

 

[GCfan]

I would imagine they are actually paying it from this yrs left over cap meaning we are free of his whole contrsct next yr

I must admit I’m nit sure how it works exactly but I like your version

I've got no answers and similarly disconsolate with the roster movement as I am with being in this lockdown for months.

Don't know whether to laugh or cry that our WT will be paying $390k for thin air.

I don’t disagree…..I’m glad Mbye, our highest paid dud is outta here….Pascoe should be accountable for our cap mess since the Cleary days….

Think Kelly was the scape goat

Signed off by CEO…who still presides over the club

Obviously

It’s a cycle.
Pay now save later.
Say Mbyes $850 in total is available next year. It will cost us $390 on the cap but wait. With Mikalee and Seyfarth potential resignings and Twal for instance off contract end of 22. You could arrange extensions for the above players this season. Front load part of their deal into this year all to the Sum of $390k and you’ve saved yourself his full wage next year. All legit.
Say no one is worth that money on the market in 22 and get to the end of the year and still have a bit of extra to spend. Do the same again.
Year by year our available cap spend for a year will be greater than 100% in addition year by year our core group gets more experienced and the playing talent within the Tigers improves making it more attractive to join the squad thus making signing the right marquee possible by having the attraction and the money.

With Mbye going that currently leaves us with 7 spots open in our top 30 for next year

Would expect a few of those to be filled by re-signings though.

I’m ok with it if it means we’re upgrading to somebody better for the difference but I’m concerned we can’t attract them

Thanks for the detailed explanation. Hopefully the strategy bears fruit.
