"Karl Oloapu has reportedly been given permission by Brisbane to meet with other clubs. Brisbane are expecting a transfer fee for the Australian Schoolboys captain, with the Dolphins and Bulldogs showing early interest."

Yes please

With our last Top 30 spot just gone, it would have to be a good sell from us to get him. This is probably the issue...he will need to accept a development contract for 2023 unless we move someone on.

The lure of playing with fellow schoolboys Faagutu and Miller could be helpful. I guess the fact we have no established halves signed up from 2024 onwards and playing under Benji could be enticing for a young half.

Where is Tom Araya?

Can confirm that Moses is not coming to Tigers.

 

[Tom Brbyb]

Tigers interest in RTS is legitimate, I won't say it is a shoe in, but both parties are talking.

 

[Tom Brbyb]

Karl Oloapu has already agreed to a deal with Dolphins, Bulldogs talk is hot air.

I can also confirm Nofo will 100% be involved in a player swap. He won't play a game for the Tigers in 2023.

 

[DJG]

Adam Douihie will play in 2023.

would be paying $1.05 to go to Redcliffe. can't see him going anywhere else as he had a deal agreed with them. WT won't block the pathway for their young halves through signing an 18 year old.

We have had Tom Araya now Tom Brbyb - I look forward to Tom Crcyc's mail

I like this one.

Knowing our luck the swap will be Jayden Okonbor

Haha, I actually believe this one.

It would be a deal with Raiders, Bulldogs or Storm, I’m thinking? Which one of those clubs is short an outside back?
On 2nd thought, what if Nofa, after threatening to go, is finally going to the Eels? This could be the reason the Moses deal has been stalling and will now be settled. Just having a guess..

Does he 100% know he will be involved or !00% doesn't know (yet)?

This would be very nice.

As long as it's an upgrade of course, which shouldn't be too difficult.

 

[crazycat]

Adam Douihie will play in 2023.

Wow is that all we have to do...

I can confirm 100% that Daly Cherry Evans will Not be contracted by our team and that we are not looking into him as well.

I have about 300 of these rumours saved up if anyone is interested...

Why do I hear crickets?

My take on the Moses situation is if eels fail within the first part of the season he will sign with us if eels kick on he will stay with the eels. I think they all know their premiership window has closed but remain optimistic it could just be open enough to have a decent run again.

He has to take up his option early in the year.

I just think he's waiting for the Eels to bump it up then hel sign with them

With Staines and Tupou here Nofo would be good to swap.

He's not a bad player but just doesn't have the hunger and his defence is still not up to a finals team standards.

 

[SeanT]

What are the Broncos doing? Seem very happy to let their best young talent look around elsewhere. Smells weird.

This whole promising a top 30 business is abit strange to be honest. Being a gun player in lower grades doesn't mean you will be in the NRL offer them a shot and give them a pathway but don't promise something you might not be able to keep and expect the player to stay. Broncos used to be a juggernaught. These day they get so much wrong.

The guy is a prima donna. I used to be such a fan, before he fell in-love with himself and went downhill.

Any of those 300 from a reasonably reliable source, or have a positive outcome, or worth discussing on a signings and rumours thread?
If not then crazy, why hang onto them? 😂
