You don’t want too quality players signing with Wests Tigers ?
Very strange supporter if you never want to see us upgrade our playing roster.

The Warriors have made a monster play to lure Melbourne winger Will Warbrick back to New Zealand
Warbrick is poised to sign for the Warriors on a multi-year deal at the end of the season

Should’ve done this 😞
One benefit of Bula coming off is there is no shortage of FB’s.
We’d probably have to overpay for Tracey though and I’d rather just keep Jahream who is better in broken play.
like that peanut would know…
He’s too focused on the orange collars and size of the magpie on the sleeve

Lomax giving the finger to NRL with this quote "Like any player, the dream of one day representing the Wallabies on a truly international stage, and potentially competing at a Rugby World Cup, is a powerful motivation.”

IMHO, getting the known turncoat is never an upgrade, especially when we have Turuva and Makasini! 💪🐅
Pfftt. He had no option but to got here. Also why does he think he will make the side? Glad he's gone.

Look I get that when you hire a player, it may work and it may not.
Clearly we took a risk on Jack Bird and then seemed to want to punt him round 18.
We should have seen better performance from Jack. Unsure if he was brought as a Lock rather then a back, well he was no lock.

Lomax isn't getting 400k in rugby. If he was getting wouldn't have turned them down a couple of months ago. About half that, unless he gets a top up with Wallaby selection. I doubt he'll get near them though, but then again rugby is in dire straits these days

Nèd to see a bit more of Makasini,but he will be in huge demand
Fb.if it works 4 him will be a doubling of hi tree s earning capacity..assuming Bula gone
Still like to club option bula and give time to explore all options and Makasini to settle

Nah - there'll always be a player who takes the field in he No 1 jumper the only question is their ability to play the position.

Maybe not - their owner has a bit of spare change to fling around for the Force.

That's good to hear about Bula and hope you're on the money. I really want him to stay.
I was hoping my mail was off.
I still believe Bula will re-sign with us, but as I keep saying that is largely up to his own performance in rounds 2-10 this season as it’s no secret we are willing to give him the contract value and length of contract he is looking for IF he shows us he is worth that money early this season.
The reason I say rounds 2-10 or early this season is because it’s obvious Bula and us would both like to know where we are heading by that time at the latest.
The other factor that many of our supporters are overlooking is that IF Bula decides to leave us for the Bulldogs, there would be no doubt his manager would then be strongly pushing or advising us NOT to take up our option for 2027.
So it’s either extend with us well past 2027, or depart at the end of this season.

They might have to go and tell his manager then to go and pound sand…. Is Bula the type to force his way out with the Benji file and bullying claims whilst getting $900k next year ?
