It makes sense. We can’t really wait till after Finals to announce it. Especially if we want to hit the market with the feeling of building / improving roster.
The Panthers would be keen to get the speculation out of the way.
They play away at North Queensland this week so it’s the perfect time for one club to make a future announcement that another club isn’t in the face of the media impacted by it.

Riccio forgot to say "Within the next 24 - 48hrs"

Don’t worry, the article says he’ll be announced in the next 48 hours.

so Tannous, Kei and Hoffman development players by the looks of things for next year. I remember a few months ago Jaycob Anjoul was reported to have signed a 3 year deal via The Mole? wonder if he's the fourth.

Would doubt it. He'd be on a flegg contract next season, possibly dev for 2022

Unfortunately. He must be considering retirement after next season because he surely would know he will never see FG again under us.

EDIT: I spoke to soon...just saw the team line up hahah

I disagree. If his fit enough his good enough. I’d have him lead the pack in his final year alongside Tamou. He was a really good starter back in 2018 alongside Matolino.

Talk to him, people manage, get the most out of his $ we can. Same to Reynolds. Reynolds played Origin. he came to us with great attitude. Of course we can find some use to them. Not as much as they are on $$, but something.

I just can't see a spot in the team for him. With Tamou, Aloiai, Musgrove, Mikaele, Twal, Blore and the Young Parra kid. I think he ends up being a last resort.

I haven't seen much lower grade footy for quite some time, would those that have say that Kei is a better prospect than Talau?

The biggest change in NRL in the last few years is build of the metre eating forwards, The taii boys are getting bent back and its the stocky quick guys that are causing opposition sides the most trouble. TIGERS TAKE NOTE.

Just watched some Kei highlights. Damm this guys got some pace and strength. I just wanna see him in intrust for a bit tho.

Maguire would know his capabilities, so would other clubs. If we needed confirmation of how highly the Club values Kei, it came today. With the Storm sniffing about for a replacement for JAC, this is a good move by WTs.

William Kei will be one of our centres next season ..he has speed, strength and size.. a must keep ..!!

What ? Fisher harries is like 187cm tall . Klemmer is like 190+ . The Bromwich brothers are massive as well . That’s not true

Kei could be okay he had a couple of decent injuries at parra he’s very strong but not very fast

 

[walter]

Willy kei super strong had a few injuries at parra he’s not overly quick

 

[weststigerman]

Sounds like we’re going to have a thousand centres next year. Someone’s going to need to play wing.

William Kei (wing), Madden (5/8) and Blore (second row) played in same NSW SOO team Under 16's
