"I’m really excited to be able to stay on with the club,” Liddle said.
“It’s been a bit of an up-and-down ride for myself personally, but I’ve loved being at Wests Tigers and really feel a part of what we’re building here.
“I’m determined now to make sure I continue to deliver my best footy each and every week and help bring success to the club, its members and its fans.”
Tigers coach Michael Maguire praised Liddle for his work ethic and said he was pleased to see the hooker remain with the club.
“Jacob has had to work really hard over the past few years,” Maguire said, “But he’s got himself now to a point where he has grown a lot as a footballer.
“He also knows where he wants to get to as a player and where he wants this club to be, and I’m looking forward to watching him continue to grow and achieve more in the years to come.”
He does not want to be coached by Madge.

He is not in the clubs plans.
(Family friend of Liddles, I believe)
I wouldn't be so sure he's here in Round 1.
So why re/sign when he knew Maguire had been extended, and why did the club re/sign him if he is not in their plans. That deal was done in June.
Not questioning you Demps, just throwing out how nonsensical that seems by both Liddle and the club if the chat is true.
Managers play the long game. If the player is signed (doesn’t matter to whom) then they are locked in on the books and can be traded in the future, securing the managers future income. I see liddle as the bread and butter client for managers because he’s not gonna be a superstar, just need him signed somewhere.
