You think? Managers love to parent their clients. And the players often go along like children.

Why does the Agent care if he stays at the Roosters or heads to another club ( he has been linked to PNG…)

I assume the agent will have to pay tax on the commission he earns still if he ends up at PNG…

It's the Wests Tigers supporter mentality. A club loses a player. Hope it cripples them. Because that's what would basically happen to Wests Tigers. Cave-in or collapse in a heap.

Clearly you can’t be talking about me… because in my first comment on the matter I have said the opposite… the Roosters will simply move onto the next superstar waiting in the wings to sign up

The Roosters are so far ahead in their recruitment and retention planning, they can pull the offer and wish him good luck in the future if he does decide to leave. Rodwell and Mareko are better than most other halves coming through grades at the moment. They do well in their recruitment and development generally to stay on top. Lose JWH, Keary, Manu, Suaalii? No problem, just blood Toia, Foketi, Savala, Wong, etc and win a premiership with them. Was Nawaqanitawase a fluke? Afterall, they didn't recuit Solomon Alaimalo did they!

Rather than acknowledge that a competitor runs their business exceptionally well, let's hope their chairmen cries in his billions.

Meanwhile, Wests Tigers have a forum member trying to drum up interest in 50-60 spuds in another thread that the CEO (if it's really is him) reckons he has to keep under wraps in case other clubs get FOMO on them. I'm not having a go at BWG, he has lots of knowledge on these players, but the club's strike rate has been sh!t in recent years (or they don't want to stay). Our backyard is a mess and we're so far behind it's not funny. Most of this forum is hung up on whether a bloke who has played less than 10x 80 min game over 3 years can be the future half, or discussing the in-and-outs of debenture holding.

It’s not news to any of us that they are set up for prolonged success mate, it’s from strong leadership & resources that’s why we discuss the debenture issue

Sam Walker moving on, oh no have the wests tigers signed Adam Doueihi rorters will be chasing Adam, noooooooooooooooo bwahahahaaaaaaaa hahahaaaaaaaaaaa

 

[GNR4LIFE]

They might target for Katoa whose off contract at the end of 28. And they’d probably get him.

 

[wstigers11]

Dang they’ve told Sammy you can go now if you want

Glad the Noob is here to remind us of the Roosters success …we weren’t aware previously 🙄

Wonder how much they will contribute to move him on in 2027?

Us trying to throwing shade at the Roosters is like a man with no arms trying to start a sword fight

Walker > Dearden swap seems the most obvious scenario

Makes too much sense actually

Walker > Dearden swap seems the most obvious scenario

The Roosters are open to releasing Sam Walker immediately after pulling their $4.2 million offer.

His agent Clinton Schifcofske says Walker wants to stay: "You can always come back to the table." But Nick Politis has no desire to reopen talks, and the Perth Bears could pounce.

The Roosters are reportedly monitoring Tom Dearden and former junior Ethan Strange.

Roosters will be sniffing around Cleary first up

The Roosters will need someone in 2027 though ..seems Walker is out the door

If so the wests tigers get the cheque book out, we need a halfback

 

[user118245]

They should target AD as a bridge to their next inevitable superstar

Pre sure his manager avoids us
