Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

There is not a chance in hell we'd be looking at signing him for 3 years at 500k. Not in a million years would he get an offer like that from any club.
He's a nobody. Dragons got suckered in.
At 2 years x 300-350k he's a decent backup that may progress. And a mutual/club option for a third year.

Hopefully $350,000 is all the tigers will have to pay with St George paying the balance for the first 2 years 🤞

Who are you moving on from our current top 30 for next season to accommodate him? And there is most definiltey only room for a mximum of one of either Seyfarth and Tasi James. Who are you picking?

Would Seyfarth even take another one year deal with us?

He's still a weak forward that struggles in attack and defence.

This was going to be my point but BB got in first. We have promoted a stack of youth into the top 30 for next year. The problem isnt the money it is how many spots we have available.

If we have signed Willson then that would explain Blore potentially moving on as we dont have enough roster space, especially if we resign Stains. We carry too many fringe First Graders, and if we don't show an avenue for Juniors to progress through the ranks then we risk losing them too. Hard but necessary decisions.

TIGERS BATTING FOR BRADMAN

Newcastle’s NSW Origin star Bradman Best is on the radar of the Wests Tigers.

The embattled Tigers have been active in the marketplace in their desperate quest to climb out of the NRL cellar and they are keen to make a play for hulking Knights centre Best.

The 21-year-old is aware of the Tigers’ interest and could find himself at the centre of a bidding war with Newcastle for his services.

Best is contracted to the Knights until the end of 2024 and underlined his potential with a stunning debut for the Blues, scoring two tries in NSW’s 24-10 defeat of Queensland in Game Three last month.

Given their lowly position, the Tigers face an uphill battle to sign Origin and Test stars, but the joint-venture club has the funds under the salary cap to keep the Knights honest.

The 103kg powerhouse is one of the code’s blockbusting centres and could be worth in excess of $700,000 a season on the open market.

have heard whispers about this for a little while, but now its hit the press. $700k is just about the right amount for where we sit on the ladder for us to lure him across. hard to believe he's only 21. he is nowhere near his ceiling.
