Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Telltails]

Can someone please establish a 'Hastings Lament' thread so select forumers can continue to peacefully live in the past.

Is it just lamenting seems like the justifyers are very keen to keep it going.

Cheers, didn’t like Uncle Bennys comments about coming back to WT, as they seemed like an indirect way of letting us know we are out of the race !
But no news is good news so guess I’ll just have to be patient.

More likely uncle says in the media he really doesnt want to leave so up your offer to make it worthwhile.

Long off-season....

Only 2 months to Go of this high grade banter.

This has made Parramatta desperate not to loose they star player.


Make no mistake, MM will stay at Parramatta for on or near the same salary

Correct,then the "reasons" not "excuses" season starts

I think the warriors may hold the key to our short term halfback dilemma. They have two very promising halves Volkman / Medcalf, both will have to abide their time behind the aging Shaun Johnston

B

Brooks has not demanded to play a certain position unlike others e.g hastings

AD may have wanted to play 6 but to date if he is playing centre he hasn't elected to play at another side due to a positional change neither has Brooks

Hastings is the only player at wests tigers who took his bat and ball and left to chase a different position as he was unhappy to play 13 rather than 7

Seriously?
That is all based on your unrelenting adoration of Brooks… not on facts.
Nobody has ‘demanded’ to play anywhere.
Hastings said publicly he was happy to play any position and wanted to be here in ‘23.
There has been zero proof either AD or Hastings have demanded anything … only speculation or innuendo by their detractors.
As for Brooks never demanding anything?
How would you know… maybe he has?
I should start a rumour to get the ball rolling.🤣
At the moment, if he remains at halfback, we’re just stuck with him anchoring us to the bottom.

I highly rate Medcalf. Would love to bring him across.

@Jedi_Tiger needs to ease up on the Brooks love...

We get it, don't need 100 posts a day to remind us 😂

If Moses re-signed with Eels, why would they wait weeks to announce it? They'd end the speculation now.

Only Tigers (or Dogs) would have to wait weeks because they would be attempting to get him over for 2023.

Thats exactly what i thought - the eels deal is just an upgraded contract and you would think they would want their members to know immediately. The only thing that would hold them back would be if they are upgrading him from 2023 and they need to move someone from their roster to accommodate it. Step up Nathan Brown.

 

[diedpretty]

My take on all of this is we would take N Brown if Mitch comes for 24 however because the Eels have restructured Moses deal in the last week or so which involves larger 23 increases on the proviso Brown leaves (they would allocate most of his cap space to Moses) we have stepped back from Brown.

I wrote something similar before i read your post - i tend to agree.

Plan B?

Go hard for Pensini.

Our offer to MM is greater than Para’s .. the ball is in MM’s court right now .. he still hasnt given us the nod as yet .. nor has he told Para anything.. which is a strange thing to do. I personally believe that he is playing both clubs and is milking us both for all it’s worth. Is he waiting to see if Para can somehow find enough money to retain him .. or is he just waiting for Para to find a replacement before letting MM announce that he is leaving .. ??

One of Stefs best mates.

Interestingly, some one posted the other day Haze Dunster was spotted with Tigers players.

It has continued - he's always hanging out with Christian M, Tuki Simpkins and Jordy Hill - they were all posting together last night.

Might be something going on there....

Im not sure why we didn't put an offer to Pensini as well as MM ( maybe we did i don't know ). It would have put parra in a real bind. They outlaid huge money for D Brown and need huge offers to keep both MM and Pensini.

This is the team that let all their good forwards and elite hooker go.... and kept Gutherson.

🚮🤦🏻

I think if he was coming tigers would have already been done. I think they are giving parra time to sort out TPA’s and ensure they get as close to our offer as possible.
