Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

so todays the day???

Disagree CCat.

Nofoaluma was one of the only marketable players atbthe time he resigned.

AD is recognised by commentators etc as one of our best players. A hard worker and apparently loyal. I don't blame him for looking across at others on bigger salaries and asking for an upgrade.

If he can get more elsewhere good luck to him. If you are referring to Brooks if he stays his deal will be restructured similar to what occurred with Chris Lawrence. He will be a one club player like Lawrence which is a fine achievement,

If Ken is fit to start on the wing in 2023 do you think Sheens to add some pace to the backline will maybe go for a centre pairing of Naden and Staines?

For those who watch the lower grades what attributes does Feledy have? He appears to be a try scoring machine for his statics.

Theres a lot of us that wouldn't be giving money to the Tigers management based on the last decade.


Cautiously optometric

That argument only works if you aren't comparing Tigers to Bulldogs. Bulldogs have had as much infighting shambles and player misbehaviour as any club the past 10 years, and absolutely wooden spoon bottomed out as bad as any club 2020-21.

He is apparently a WT supporter. Were we asleep at the wheel?
1st Jaycar now Laundry.

I reject the assertion that anyone willing to support Bulldogs was ever a Wests Tigers supporter.

Fair enough to not want to financially back WT, but to actively finance an opponent and still claim to be a Tigers fan? Impossible.

Could you imagine anyone on here ever getting rich and ploughing that money into Souths or Parramatta? Ridiculous.

The story I was told, one brother is a red hot Dogs man and the other brothers is a WT man. Anyway bottom line if you pay to have your brand name linked to a football club,you want the team to be very successful and that is what they are doing

Seems like dogs might be getting Critchon.... surely that would effect their chances with Moses from a $ perspective

 

[Lebanese_Coach_aspiration]

Eels offer was 3 yrs at $450Dogs was 4 yrs at $650
Also Burton offered a upgraded 4 yr for $3.7m

Burtons will be cheaper, 750 + a clothing label (like Addo Carr got) is what I am hearing, but nothing sorted just yet.

Here's hoping that is statement ref MM is correct and comes true .. !!

 

[Masterton]

I agree with him. Wighton is close to the dumbest player in the NRL. Athletically gifted but he's dumb as

Junior Pauga makes him look like Mensa.

Yeah it's a pet project, it has nothing to do with the club and everything to do with the personal brand, like the dudes who own French rugby clubs or Marwan Koukash and when he used to own the Red Devils.

The credit I will give someone like Rusty Crowe is he was always a Souths man, since day dot, and he used his success and wealth to help the club he always supported as a diehard. He doesn't plaster his name about the place and he's a part-owner rather than a sponsor. It's not about the Russell Crowe brand.

Even Lee H has had a history of flipping and flopping about with his sponsorship of other clubs, secondary to Wests Tigers.

nah mate they still got plenty of cap to spend. At least enough for another marquee player or two.

For the love of god i hope we get Moses to rub it in their faces, and god hope they do crap this year. With Ciraldo, Kikau and Mahoney they are certainly blowing wind in their ass. Look they do have an improved squad but gotta relax, havent been good in a while (so have us)

I'd argue our recruitment has been much better than theirs this season. We've signed a top 2 hooker in the game. Arguably the best second rower in the game (who I personally think is much more consistent than Kikau on less money). An elite representative prop who was one of the best props last season, John Bateman OTW (Apparently) who will be another damaging ball runner for Moses to play off. Bulldogs always been good at talking the talk, but rarely do they ever walk the walk.

Dogs are factional but highly engaged.

Tigers have a passive board
