The Cowboys will be in trouble ..
Tigers should pounce 👀 .. I’d be going after Nanai & Taunoa-Brown

Cowboys got their main man. But it could cost them with 23 players coming off-contract in two years

Heilum Luki and Semi Valemei are both players I'd take interest in. if they do have to squeeze players out then I'd definitely be enquiring about Griffin Neame also. big fan of Robert Derby but I think they keep him.

Another bad day for Dragons fans

Love Dragon's misery.....can't handle the club, the fans, De Bellin, none of it

Tigers should make a play for Heilum Luki.

Currently has an option in his favour for 2025 with the Cowboys but is yet to take it up and is currently a free agent.

How about making a play for a centre?

luai to wests is now a formality with penrith expected to waive the 10 day cooldown period. jarome is not happy that the news he was leaving immediately was leaked to the press. ivan and his merry band of chimps are developing a reputation among those who have left the club recently for a bit of a scortched earth policy.

also expect olam to be wearing black and orange in the new year with blore headed the other way.

I hope Olam finds form and gets back to his old days if he's coming to the Tigers

Maybe a fresh start elsewhere will do him good

Olam

 

[OzLuke]

How about we swap Olam for Nofa....

That Taumalolo deal is really going to come back to bite them. It was a great deal for the first five years, but these last four years coming will be a drain.

It really goes to show that signing any front rower on big money beyond the age of 30 is a MASSIVE risk. Taumalolo has really declined in the last year or two and even this last year you could start to see the decline in Junior Paulo. The AFB and Tino deals may be great for the first half of those contracts but could be an issue in the later years.

Don't know too much of Robert Derby

Griffin Neame is abit of a dope

I would take Luki though

I'd like to swap my old lawnmower for a new Porsche too. Deal?

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Griffin Neame reminds me of a player like Alex Seyfarth

Don’t know what you’re gonna get

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Olam

Yeah, nah. We need someone marquee.

Do you think the Storm will agree Luke? maybe they can pick up the garbage at the Concord COE as well?

Nanai is locked up long-term, and we have a heap of middles. I'd be chasing Finefeuiaki and possibly Valemei

 

[Odessa]

Based on?

They lost Kikau, Crichton, Burton, Api and Lenui. None got early releases.

Based on what the Penriths CEO said about the Tigers when Ivan ran out the door and the way he and Ivan have acted since towards the Tigers

He's played there before

 

[Tom Shines]

He's played there before

It ain’t happening Luke

 

[Mistymuzzle]

To be completely clear mate … he has had no monetary involvement in the club for several years now… so he is free to make Third Party deals to players should be choose to

NRL has recently rejected Harry or Meriton as independent third party. Any payments from Harry are included in club third party cap

Link ?

 

[Mistymuzzle]

Why would you make illegal deals if there was no limit on them?

Payments from companies truly (or arguably) independent of the club are unlimited and legal

 

[Mistymuzzle]

Because the links to the club or being organised by the club makes them illegal.
If Politis calls up a mate and says hey, were struggling to bring Tedesco from the Tigers can you chuck in 100k. Then that 3rd party is illegal, even if Politis mate has no official link to the Roosters.

If roosters get no money or benefits from Nicks mate and Nicks mate gets a benefit from the player (marketing) then your scenario is completely legal.
