Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[avocadoontoast]

Comments suggesting it doesn't matter as they're only reserve graders are missing the point. These players were identified by us and we made them offers. They turned us down. There is no point having a youth strategy if we're unable to sign them.

The vast majority of NRL players will resign with their current clubs. This is not an issue unique to Wests Tigers. Do you think the Wests Tigers were the only club that identified either of these guys?

They are not the only two players we've gone after. We've gone after many other players that have signed with rival clubs.

Cheer up guys we signed Seyfarth

The 22-year-old said he was delighted to re-sign with Wests Tigers.

“I’m really happy to be able to stay on with the club for another couple of years,” Seyfarth said.

“I grew up always wanting to play for Wests Tigers and it’s dream come true to continue my playing future here. I’m really enjoying what we’re building at the club and I’m keen to play my part in bringing success to our Members and fans moving forward.”

I wouldn't worry, WTs is a bit sensitive about its miss/miss ratio with offers made to players.

But we have signed players from rival clubs as well? There are 16 clubs, you can’t sign them all, at least we identified them, if we did in fact make offers?

So what? We are a club that isn’t very attractive because we have spent so much time near the bottom. That won’t change overnight.

You conveniently ignore all the junior talent we have signed because we missed out on 2.

The Pom said HSS management contacted our management to say he's re-signing with Canberra. Why did they do that? Or are you saying they didn't do that and The Pom just made it up?

You’re basing an argument on 3rd party information?
