Please stop the jedi mind tricks on our spooners.

With either Brooks or Hastings they'll get the spoon no jedi powers will be able to help them next year I reckon

I agree. Newcastle are at severe desperation stage.

I was asking the question sorry ...I couldn't tell you who was or wasn't on the list at season's end ...it's was pretty hard to look at that list without regurgitating your last meal to be honest ....

My point is if players are being released at least the club can come out with a thankyou for your service ...especially in Nu's case ..at times in 2022 he was in our Top 3-5 players in particular games ..and probably not a bad 3rd or 4th string back up utility if Api gets picked for SOO and Simpkin /Rua not available

Nu was offered a spot, Sheens really likes him but he wasn't happy with minimum wage.

I expect the Klemmer announcement to be done by Monday.

Rare positively on the club

Why the Tigers won't take home the wooden spoon in 2023

Don’t worry I’m a tigers fan

 

[weststigerman]

Can you rewrite your 2nd question .....I can't make sense of it ....sorry

My bad. My question was why aren’t players quoted as saying “playing with Brooks/Doueihi/Hastings was one of the reasons I joined/re-signed”?

They definitely used to say that about Benji and Farah.

If he is gone ...he played NRL ...least deserves a thank you ...far worse players who showed a lot of disrespect got more recognition

The Last I heard the club wanted him to stay but the Bulldogs were interested. There still hasn't been an announcement from the Bulldogs so maybe that hasn't changed.

League minimum is probably unders ...but you wouldn't be paying anymore than about 30-50 k more than that

So he is coming after all of this back and fourth?

 

[fainty]

I may as well say I know someone in the know too! 🤦🏻‍♂️

This is Tigers, doesn’t everyone get 600 plus including wingers?

That depends if your Chairman mate Lee gets involved

 

[weststigers]

Keith Galloway (Sharks) Ryan Ohara (Flop Raiders, Jamal Lolesi (flop Raiders), Lote Tuqiri (union), Garreth Ellis (England), John Morris

Are you suggesting these were superstars at the time?

Gareth Ellis joined in 2009 and was the only genuine star.

Galloway joined in 2006 when he was 21. He made his name at the Tigers.

I already mentioned Tuqiri.

Lolesi, Morris and O’Hara were 🚮

So we’ve named 2 guys over 5 years…Benji was hardly an attraction to the biggest names in the NRL.

 

[weststigers]

You forgot Teddy Blair.

I’ve been trying to forget him since his 1st game with us!

I don’t see how the Bulldogs can offer Nu any more cash than the basic wage that he was offered by us.
