Tevita Pangai Junior

[Demps]

The problem with Pangai is he only has a blinder every 3 or 4 games.
We need someone with more consistency for 800k.

Blows my mind we would happily pay that amount for TPJ and not for finucane. Finucane is the leader we need that could change the whole culture at the club.

The key word being ‘could’. He’s almost 30 and played a lot of footy. Massive risk imo. You’re paying a lot for intangibles.

100% TPJ is only 25 he is way better value

Check PM'S My brother.

You trying to get someone to back your Cotric rumour mate ? Not taking off as you’d hope ?

My rumour?
You've been sulking a lot mate.

Are you OK?

Well yeah it is your rumour, you’ve been parading it on here for the last 24 hours. Now you’re got clearly massive doubts about it so you need backing.

No sulking over here. Just salivating at the apology I’ll get it when it doesn’t happen ?

I won't be apologising if the club can't get the job done...

This is hilarious. No need to apologize but the idea the club has to get a deal done is hilarious. The club needs to do good deals and walk away from bad deals. This deal sounds like a nightmare that will never happen. It could. If it does cool. I really doubt it though. I doubt all signings until it's official.

One must never get their hopes up.
Especially as a wests tigers fan.

See what happens though.
A deal is there to be made.

It's a really hard deal to make. Two overpaid players on long term contracts.

They can meet with tpj face to face as they are in the same bubble. So they don't need to do zoom

I can't imagine players managers have been allowed to come up to SEQ .....not essential workers as such and not linked to clubs directly...

And I can't imagine the recruitment teams from clubs coming up either as they aren't in the bubble ......

So did he sign with the dog's yesterday?

No update yet. He was meeting up with the bulldogs

Must be hard with the Covid restrictions ...Anna said any players that breach now aren't in the bubble anymore ...

Yep very hard with a computer and an internet connection.

As you may have seen despite your obvious gripe ...when someone says "meeting up " thats means meeting them in person .....

Well seeing your prom date has got about 1 out of 30 predictions right you can understand my questions and lack of credibilty ....

By the way , still waiting for your apology in regards to the 36 hours discrepancy beween the press comments and your mates comments that you denied happening .....

This is good news for you, you learnt something new today. You can do a “meeting up” online, all you need is a computer and wifi. Crazy world I know . Apologise ? To you ? Omg , lol lol lol lol lol lol

The NRL didnt de-register him, they suspended him for 8 matches. When he serves those 8 matches, he can play. Saints sacked him. New club can sign him

The Club that picks him up will own that suspension time...


100% but the post I was referring to said that the NRL wouldnt register him. They never de-registered him and as soon as that suspension is served he can play for who ever.

The poster your referring to is a bit wiser than that.
He would of meant the NRL wouldn’t agree to $350 as a nominal value of Vaughn’s contract.
Which I have to agree, Vaughn’s market value despite his recent suspension would be about $550.
Edit. Unless;
If the dogs were to pick him up next year they could very well sign him for $350 as he would be only playing for 2/3rds of the season.
So a wise accountant would make that his first year salary to factor in the time lost in suspension.


Vaughans market value, is what the market will pay for him.....thats kinda how markets work. His "market" value is greatly diminished by his own stupidity.

If the NRL or anyone else have a notional value for him, that is the opposite to Market value.

Haven’t you kind of said the same thing I just said?
Market value of $550 might be a little low, but would be the low scale of a high profile prop.
- the suspension / impacted value of being suspended would bring his face value down to 400-350k


Im not sure we are saying the same thing. WHat ever a club is willin gto pay him, IS his market value.....thats the market,

A player's market value is irrelevant. We cannot offer to pay Munster 200k in the cap and 2 million in tpas. That's just not good the cap works.

That's an extreme example, but you can't just pay any player how much you want under the cap and call it market value

Roosters seem to have gotten away with doing that in the recent past though.

Remember when we were trying to get Robbie elsewhere, he was on a contract for about $950k. Roosters offered him minimum wage. NRL said no. But that was the only time I've heard of them saying no.

From what I heard as late as this afternoon, the ball is now in TPJ's court but no final decision has been made.

He has his final offer from the Tigers and a now revised final offer from the Dogs which is slightly more than they previously offered.

Personally believe the dogs revised offer will get it over the line for them, however believe that TPJ has shown that he is genuinely more interested in the Tigers than the dogs so I wouldn't be totally surprised to see him end up at the Tigers.

My understanding a couple of days ago was he was leaning towards us, but a lot can change in that time.

Best example was Luke Lewis. Was all but signed with us, before changing his mind at the 11th hour.

This is what I got told 4hrs ago apparently we are paying close to $300000 more than the bullgrubs over the 3 years. At this stage that haven’t match it and I don’t think they will match it. Bulldogs are still chasing cheese so I don’t think they want to pay overs for TPJ. Also a 3rd team is in the mix that hasn’t been mentioned @willow

Reckon he'll make a decision soon? If it's tigers he can make the immediate switch

Surely there’s not that much of a divide in price ? We’d be close to 900k a year if that’s our offer which is a massive worry

Packer switch with benefits hopefully

$600k v $800k when you suck. Who cares in NRL land. Just buy as many Roy Asotasis as possible, cross fingers, (till you sign Maguire lol) and maybe win a comp in 5 years 🙂

Most likely the other team is Roosters, Sharks or South and he would be happy to go there for 400k and some nice brown paper bags..

They still have a magic farm they visit that's seems to attract players for some reason..
I hope they go downhill after Wayne leaves as they have like 8 SOO players in the squad and their fans still complain they are hard done by.
