Have you seen Hindies house at Bellavista (might be Whitehaven)? It’s massive. He’s doing alright.

Think more around Kent Hurst area

Woods was quoted as saying this the other day!!! Surely he is taking the mickey?

"“You never dump on your employer because it reflects poorly on your character,” Woods told the Herald on Tuesday."

He’s finally learnt something then.

His mrs probably makes more money than him these days.

She heads up a business called three birds renovations and they do some stunning home transformations. They have a huge social following too.

Played for his country, successful businesses outside of footy, gets paid to talk and watch footy with his mates - makes 'moron' look like a difficult label to aspire to.

My expectation is that we don't sign him. We are desperate for a quality 1, 6 or 7 and I don't think we have juniors coming through that are anywhere near ready for first grade.

We probably need to replace two out of those three but I suppose it starts with getting one quality player in those critical roles.

The article at the link is correct that at least one of Hastings, Doueihi and Brooks would leave - it suggested Hastings ahead of season 2023. The same article advises Fox League reported only one of them would stay in 2023. It reports Brooks would be the halfback in 2023 and that the club is chasing Moses and Bateman.

Our recruitment/retention is strategic where previously this didn't appear to be the case.

Tim Sheens reveals halfback stance which leaves question marks over ex-Wigan Warriors halfback Jackson Hastings' future - Rugby League News

Wests Tigers are at the heart of discussions about transfers at present. New boss Tim Sheens is reportedly chasing both Mitchell Moses and John Bateman but there are huge question marks over recruitment at present as well. The Tigers have three options in the halves in the shape of Luke Brooks...

If people are willing to take info supplied by people not in the game such as our inside men on this forum, then it seems silly not to take info supplied by people that are in the game.
Additionally, I am slightly amused that people like Johns and Fittler are taken seriously but guys like Hindy and Fletch aren’t. They basically have the same jobs, credentials and carry on the same way.

True, I actually only rate fitter more reliable only because of his affiliation to origin. Once he stops coaching the origin squad he hasn't got anything reckon him and John's are another pack of clowns.

A source tells me the Moses deal is done. He will be signing with the club from 24 angling for a release for next season as well. I should point out he's been wrong on stuff before but he's also been right on a few things lately as well so I thought I'd share here.

We should celebrate great possible news this with a chicken plate at New star.

If I was mitch, that buzz article, obviously submitted by Parra, would have me fired up to sign elsewhere.

Only if it's your shout

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Remember how confident some of these sources were that we had Latrell Mitchell?! We as fans have been burnt before. I hope we get Moses…but I’m not counting my chickens before they hatch!

It's good to dream and have hope.
However based on past history of player negotiations getting media heat we suck.
I have zero confidence in MM coming until it's formally announced.

I put forward the olive branch of friendship, and you pick the olives off it to take home.

Beautiful homes around that area.

I'm keen if he signs.

good on him for doing those things doesn't mean he is not a moron though

 

[earl]

Ok so let’s just say we miss out on Moses. Who do we go after then?! Dylan Brown, Matt Burton, who else would be a target for those positions coming off contract?! I guess you can try and get one of the roosters boys in Teddy, Manu or Suaailli to play fullback.

It's really hard. I think developing them is the best way forward.

This. A lot of people (Brooks fans) like to forget that AD was by far our best player in 2021 when he was playing 5/8 and was still dangerous behind a beaten pack unlike Brooks.

It will have been well over a year since his surgery and this will likely be his first offseason training at 5/8. I think people will be in for a surprise in 2023 with AD as our 5/8.

Spot on..and if he thinks hes worth $900k he'll give it a red hot go at 6 with us next season to attract suitors,which is a position where the $$ are rather than the forwards.
And he has the ability to do so as we saw in 21 pre injury.
Brooks will try and do the same at no7,but ..................not sure he has it tbh
