Has Tim Lafai been injured? If not is there a reason he isn't making the queens team each week?
I wouldn't mind having him in our ranks, reminds me a lot of Tim Simona.

Lafai is a Campbelltown Junior as well

NMN - no more nuffies

Good to see. Ricky Stuart call out a particular manager's lack of integrity. How can the Raiders lose Bateman with a year to go on his contract? This is Matterson and Moses revisited.

I hope Ricky keeps at the NRL and even uses the media as he has already to shame the NRL into action

Bennett has been having a crack also

*Anthony Seibold's manager is Isaac Moses, who at the time had about 15 contracted players at the Broncos," Bennett said.

"There's no way that those two wouldn't have discussed that playing group there. Anthony had a job at South Sydney but he still decided to take the job up there. If he thought he was going to an inferior football club, he wouldn't have gone.*

Moley reporting James Maloney wants to come back to the NRL in 2021..apparently can't get a decent BBQ in France..

Don't be surprised if rugby league's best 'Mr Fix-it' - James Maloney - makes a return to the NRL in 2021.

Maloney's NRL career looked to be over when he jetted out to France with his family to join Catalans on a three-year Super League contract late last year.

But just four games into Maloney's new deal, COVID-19 shut down Super League and its future remains clouded.

Meanwhile, a host of NRL clubs - headed by the Titans, Broncos, Bulldogs, Warriors and Dragons - have problems in the halves that Maloney could fix.

The 34-year-old has a phenomenal record of turning clubs around in quick time - he is a winner - and I'm hearing while no approach has been made at this stage, his name is being discussed at board level by several clubs.

Maloney knocked back a return to the NRL on a short-term deal after a couple of quiet offers a few months back because of quarantine issues and the fact he has four young children.

But a return to the NRL full time may appeal to the former NSW State of Origin star, with Super League clubs all in financial strife and Catalans likely to be prepared to release him to cut costs.

Great non retention by the Tigers

Cant keep everyone and Im not losing sleep over losing Lafai. Cant crack it at the Dragons and IMO wouldnt make our 17

Maloney woukd fix the Broncos, Croft is a dud.
Used to know his old man when he was alive he was a good bloke he used to say James never really wanted to play for us i think he said that himself a few years ago too.
He would be a food buy for warriors

Are you telling us all that the warriors would eat Maloney
They must be hungry guys

Oates might be a good pick up not the best winger but a big body not sure what price he would command though

With Johnson being shown the door at south's, don't be surprised if Corey oats takes his spot
He and Wayne are old buddies and the timing couldn't be more perfect
If that happens then Addo-carr could come home to the tigers
Bulldogs will offer more $ but the Tigers are on the up and the Bulldogs are well and truly stuck on the bottom rung of the ladder
I can't see Josh going from a top team to a bottom team
Oh but wait
The Roosters have found $400,000 in their cap
If Addo-Carr wants to return to Sydney early then maybe Bellamy and Madge can strike a deal

Pretty sure Matterson's agent was Gavin Orr - not Moses. The system is the problem and they all take advantage of it - some worse than others.

Could you imagine Bennett agreeing to coach teams without financial benefactors willing to buy the best players or having an A roster?

We should be offering JAC what it takes to get him here. It is an ongoing position of weakness we haven't been able to fill.

We all whinge that it only happens to us, but it happens everywhere.

I'm not sold on JAC, his numbers so far are well down on previous years.

Not sure whether it's because he's homesick or has been affected by the disruption that's occurred due to COVID.

He's also expensive, way more than we should pay for a winger. I had him in my fantasy team and he didn't crack 20 points in 5 rounds, so I traded him.

I really liked Talau's game on Sunday, he has plenty of potential, he's young and with time he could easily own our left attacking edge.

 

[InBenjiWeTrust]

He can go and join LM! Similarly as in the case of Falou, his off the field antics is certainly something we can live without!
That is the reason I prefer: Tupou, Codric, Koroibete, or Radradra, and even one or both Morris bros!

 

[tigerap]

JAC's career is on the downhill slide....his headspace is a worry, for that reason,m the Rabbits should be his ONLY choice

 

[tigerap]

Bring this Guy on minimum wage:

[pawsandclaws1]

JAC is a current Aus and SOO rep. He will bring a new dimension to our attack and defence if he comes.

Talau will be a fine centre and even better if he, Hoffman or Kei have a speedster in JAC next to them. It just makes us a much more dangerous team with real pace on one wing.

And Melbourne in no way look as sharp without JAC.

Hey Josh, come back to WTs and bring your wing partner, Vunavalu with you.😊
