Shaun Lane and Jackson Hastings leaving Manly

https://www.nrl.com/news/2018/06/26/manly-sea-eagles-release-jackson-hastings-shaun-lane-to-leave-after-2018/

Parra have signed Lane.

Manly trying to do things the dodgy way again, released Hastings and naming Fainu at hooker again, their CEO is quoted saying "We hope to get an exemption for him as a development player. We'll see where that lands,"

So they are trying to get an exemption for a development player instead of upgrading him to a full contract while claiming they have no hookers now Hastings is gone yet they have Joey Lussick (a hooker) playing ISP.

They also claim they are unlikely to have 30 players come June 30 and hope the NRL will understand, if they are having a major problem filling their 30 spots as it is why would you release Hastings so close to the June 30 deadline and have even less players on the books.

Unlike the Bulldogs they have made no attempt to offload higher priced players so they have cap space to fill their 30 man roster, they really are a low club.

Just in case anyone is interested lol

We should be looking at the following players for 2019: Kaide Ellis, Tyrell Fumaino, Hymel Hunt, James Segyaro, Peni Terepo, Jayson Bukuya, Corey Oates, Kayleb Milne.

Good list, hopefully we can land a few.

There’s lots of speculation at the moment on the forum about what success looks like at Tigers.
I reckon we have turned the corner when:
1\. We make the 8
AND
2\. A marquee player in the prime of his career signs with us

Agreed. But do we need the marquee to make the 8, or do we need to make the 8 to get the marquee?

Awesome point.
I think we need to pay overs, get the marquee, make the 8 and gradually attract high class players.
BUT I do believe we can make the 8 this year

 

[Tiger_Steve]

According to FOX, Oats management have approached EVERY club saying Corey wants a change and to play in back row. Bloody hell!! Sign him already!

Or sign the coaches son. He'll be cheap. :laughing:
Oates would be a good signing.

Cleary is a way into the elite market through the back door. We sign him, we could sign a few more

WT might look like a good prospect to him considering the way the Cows are going.

 

[Cairnstigers]

We dont need to sign a marquee player
We need our players to stand up and be counted
And we need Ivan to turn our players into marquee players
That would be so much more satisfying for Ivan and us as supporters
It would also prove that Ivan is a great coach which will then start getting other players knocking at our door
Ofcourse bringing Nathan here is fine as Ivan would have to be credited with much of his success
