Teddy Is the Priority then Nofo then Sirro then the rest….......

Seriously… Putting a Winger ahead of a Ball-Playing Backrower is simply madness at its best.

Sounds like something we would do?!

Because one is more important than the other? ??

Don't think so

Everyone has their crucial role

Maybe.maybe if we were comparing a 7 and a 2

It all depends on the needs of a club. Right now we're pretty light on in backline depth, so Nofa should be priority.

Take Souths for example - they'd probably put more emphasis and value on getting a gun winger like Brett Morris than they would for, say, Thurston, as they have ample depth at five-eight but have two bog average wingers.

Perhaps the fact we're overflowing with back rowers has something to do with it.
 
If Teddy stays, I reckon Nofo will also stay… Either way, another 10 Wingers will come through in the next 2-3 years, so I wouldn't be paying overs like it looks like we will be forced to do with Teddy.

Unless they see Nofo as a Centre, its really simple. Here is the offer, if you don't like... Bye Bye

Seeing that Sirro can play 6 also if required must make him a higher priority

Not really. At the moment we've got Anasta who is doing just fine, Austin who is killing it in NSW Cup and Moses who is earmarked as Brooks' long term partner.
 
We just don't know how good Sirro might be. I personally believe he well develop into the number 1 backrower in the nrl given another year or two on the field. Particularly with a (seemingly) rejuvenated and invigorated pack around him. I'd be looking at him as 2nd and Nofo 3rd priority.
 
I'd have Sirro as more important than Nofo, even considering how awesome he is. Sirro has unknown potential. If he can string a lot of games together we will see him standing head and shoulders above his peers, and not just literally. It's a bit of stretch at the moment, but I pick him to be a future kangaroo and Blues stalwart. I think he'll be better than his dad and not need little blokes to make him look good all the time. Has the bastard even stopped growing yet?

I will just state again that I am 100% confident Tedesco will remain at the Tigers.

I've been starting to feel that way myself the last couple days. Hell, we might not even lose anyone.

Over your earlier anxieties?

Meaning as an on field replacement Alex , I think if Potter is here for a while we will rarely see a back on the bench
 
Firstly I sat on this for a while I knew what would happen once I said it
>
If you don't believe me ,I spoke to some that I trust on the Forum at least a day before I decided to come out with most of the stuff I knew
>
Even if I knew how much Teddy was offered , how would of this helped in his contract negotiations ??
>
First and foremost I wanted Teddy to resign with the Tigers
>
Secondly I want Teddy to get what he deserves money wise
>
Having been screwed over by a club myself because I was young ,dumb and full of you know what I didn't want to see the same happen to a bloke who could be anything as far as the Tigers are concerned
>
And their is more stuff that I could say about what has happened with Teddy and the Tigers especially while in rehab from the ACL and the costs but I won't or his studies but again I will leave that
>
For some reason Timmy you seem to think that I should spill my source Tell me Timmy , what do I owe you ??
>
Well I don't need to spill my source , the articles all coming out are supporting what I said 6 days ago
>
You believe what you like about the Tigers and all NRL clubs for that matter
>
They want everything as cheap as possible and unless there is a buck to made out of caring for footballers pre, current or post career they won't and usually don't
>
People wonder why others don't reveal stuff on the Forum , because they know they will be thrown under the bus
>
Sorry for the rant

Again , whether people believe what I say or not ,think I'm a loon or wanting my 15 seconds of fame I couldn't give a rats

Ok, I think you've entirely missed my point mate. I'm not doubting the information that is being told for to you.

I'm saying there are two sides of the coin. Based on the limited information you have provided - and received - it is difficult to draw any conclusions as to the club's competence in negotiations with Tedesco.

It is the Mayer's job to secure Tedesco on terms that are suitable to the Tigers. It is Ayoub's job to secure contract that is suitable to Tedesco. In monetary terms it is a zero sum game. For every extra dollar Ayoub squeezes out of the Tigers it is a dollar the Tigers cannot spend elsewhere.

It is naive of you to take the word of Tedesco's camp as goespel with no concrete figures regarding the offer put to Tedesco, the alternatives on the table, or the salary cap space the Tigers have to work with.

I'm glad the Tigers are trying to leverage loyalty and other intangibles. That's the job of our negotiating team. To get Tedesco for the lowest price possible - provided it does not create disharmony or other adverse effects.

I don't expect you to reveal your source. I don't even care who your source is. My point was that your source is clearly either Tedesco himself or a close family member. In that sense your information is tainted and is only part of the story. I think you would do well to acknowledge that rather than castigating the club for mismanagement et cetera.

Perhaps we have offered Tedesco $500k and his camp believes that is far less than he deserves and would get from the Roosters. Would you still advocate upping the offer in this circumstances?
 
If you reread my comment you will get an answer to your last question

If they'd offered Teddy 500 k we wouldn't be having this argument I'd reckon

And what do you suggest about the 5k Teddy is owed from 2012 and the 10 k he is owed from 2013 the club should do

Is that being fair ??

What about the money owed to Anasta and Farah as well ??

Wingers have become super important of late (never thought id say that!)

Metres out of your own half, along with finishing and defending bombs, wingers now win and lose games…..once again, cant believe Im saying this!!
 
A story in RLW,Teddy and Nofo's manager has told them both to hold of signing,say's he has had no contact with easts or canterbury,and said he would be very surprised if easts wanted him as they have RTS.
Said both wanted to stay and he is still dealing with the club,also mentioned his number 1 client is Farah,and Farah wants both at the club.

If it was written by The Mole, he said he wrote that story a week ago.

I'm still of the belief we'll see it announced early next week for the Manly game.

I can't see a response to my last question.

I have no idea about the money the players are owned. If that's correct I can't understand why Tedesco would have any interest in re-signing no matter what he was offered.

How about the rest of my post? That you are hearing one side of the story and have no knowledge of the financial imperatives and constraints Mayer is operating under? Do you agree?

Firstly I want Teddy to resign with the Tigers answers your last question

Honestly with the squad we have , we probably shouldn't have any financial restraints and if we have again that a issue the Tigers have brought on themselves

They know who is coming up off contract and what approximate market price they will attract its not like " Surprise its 2014 , we have 8 players coming off contract "

The Tigers must have had a list in order of priority who to keep and who is less important

Tedesco is the top of the list in 2014 and most would agree I believe

If Teddy has a long kicking game he has the potential to be the next Darren Lockyer

And before every one has a laugh about that comment , I'm the same bloke who said Teddy will become a better fullback than Brett Hodgson and I'll stand by those comments as well

This young man could be our once in a generation player in the fullback role for many years to come

He could be our next captain

We can't lose him to anyone

If we lose Tedesco ,Mayer needs to man up and take responsibility and accountability for it

Am I looking at this fairly , yes , we must retain Tedesco

My info is that there is not a player in the comp who is owed money from any club.

3rd party arrangements are not governed the same as they are by definition an arrangement not involving the club.
