Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Vicious]

Personally Benji needs to sort out Terrell May's form.

A couple of his misses the past 2 matches we haven't seen before or for a long time. Is it pure fatigue, is it a bit of laziness due to mental fatigue creeping in or is there something amiss with his physical condition atm?

Terrell is a barometer for the team's form & he sets an example particularly for the young guys in the group.

I hope not, but is there any concern that Terrell may have recently lost a bit of motivation due to him being very close with Luai?
His first 20mins against the Warriors was so soft, so way off the pace and very out of character.

I thought he played better in the second stint …so he had a change of heart ?

The whole team was asleep early in the game …again …seems a big problem most weeks

He doesn’t need to , he said somethings big is happening and it will allow us to help re sign the brothers . It’s the rumours chat for gods sakes.

Sure re write history if you like 🤣

So now that all the other teams know Luai is 100% leaving & Tigers are desperate to get rid of him why would anyone offer more than 50% of his 2027 contract?

If it wasn’t so public I’m sure a team like Parra potentially offer more but they now have all the leverage

I thought i read somewhere that Luai had agreed to a set payout

So I'm thinking he isn't guaranteed what he signed for with us

Say the Tigers payout is 300k than its up to him to negotiate a new one year deal?

it’s based on a rumour ..may not be true .. I mean it seems a bit unlikely he would make that decision..to walk away from guaranteed money next season..?

That’s my understanding too, a termination fee

I don’t care if anyone posts info. Go for your life. The onus is on the reader to take it with a grain of salt. My issue is, which I thought was pretty obvious was the “I know something you don’t, but I’m not saying” rubbish, It’s like taking a starving man to a buffet than refusing him food. People come to this thread, desperate for info. Especially when times are shit. They want to know what’s going on. They go out of their way to ask the supposed insiders if they have any updates. So if you do have info, don’t be a dick about it. Either straight up post it, or don’t say anything at all.

You must have some super power then to know his intentions from a few sentences . You from the future ?

No need, all there in the chat history if you like lol

I heard this from someone else too. $300k seems to be a consistent number being thrown around.

Averillo has always been decent and I think we're about getting him, in his prime.

Break out year ahead 2027.
Prob be our top try scorer.

Looking forward to it.

You can only be as good as those around you.
Here's hoping he gets the ball in open space and can
show what he is about. Thats where i see him playing his best footy.

No, just someone who reads this thread and what people do and do not appreciate.

Bit late to the forum today due to work & I am both angry and disheartened.

Collectively our men's teams lost to the Warriors 32 to 116 this round. NRL beaten by 26, Cup beaten by 24 & Flegg beaten by 34.

This is unacceptable!

Was looking forward to our lower grades today but the same attacking & defensive systems we apply in NRL are applied through the grades, and guess what, it's the same issues through the grades. Our red zone attack is sideways & we get caught in defence on the edges so many times with a final overlap.

I have no passion to write any more today - this club just saps the energy out of me.

Our structures are all kinds of wrong. Our edges just collapse with no real pressure. It’s like watching the same performance in every grade and it’s why we can’t even bring anyone up to first grade.

A couple desperate teams will. Parra for one. And with the poor old Bears, the phrase beggars can’t be choosers comes to mind.

Why would they?

Parra: we’ll take him for half
Tigers: No
Parra: ok deals off, you can keep the guy that you publicly don’t want, tells his fans STFU, disses his club & team mates on social media.
Tigers: 😮

Edit… Just seen another poster say it looks like it’ll be a pay out which means this doesn’t matter anyways lol

You could be right…so what’s to blame ?

Hired a bunch of nobodies for assistant coaches

 

[innsaneink]

I was and I know exactly what I’m talking about . You think you’re the info police lol. So butt hurt you don’t get any oil, so attack anyone who does get some.

Oh please...im all for people providing info and im not that shallow that i have no info...i couldnt care less im just a nobody like you.
If you were in fact here youd know he provided no info at all...but maybe this is just a personal dig at me and GNR...i think we are getting somewhere now....name calling again seems to point to that eh.

Have a great Sunday
