Tigers slam Dragons over Moltzen [update]

[innsaneink]

The deal has been done for a few days now.

Not according to Humpty….do you know something he doesnt?

Nah, just if the player himself says he has signed, then im prepared to go with him. But at the end of the day, he is just a player and who knows what shananigans go on with player managers and CEO's

Hmmmm interesting.
We could see this was all poorly handled a while ago, didnt know it would or could get worse.

 

[RatedRKO]

They really announced it hours before an important game like tonight's?

Bunch of queens, I hope we make it to the finals and kick their asses out.

 

[smoking_gun]

Just makes humphreys look like a bigger idiot IMO

 

[DJZ]

So the plot thickens!

 

[Tigerdave]

what the hell is going on??

No point crying over spilt milk now. The deal is done and if the Dragons leaked it early, well then it's certainly unprofessional on their behalf but I'd just like to wish Moltzen good luck at the end of the day.

what the hell is going on??

Times 100.

What the hell is going on?

If we end up with Dugan and Blair = great management.

If we end up with no one = …................................ :imp:

Really, really annoyed. I will not be renewing my family's 20 year membership next year. How can you expect loyalty from players when you show no loyalty in return? No loyalty = no membership Tigers. I'm sure other supporters feel the same.

I'm sorry, but do not count me as a supporter, who "feels the same".

Tim Moltzen played two games in the 2010 season before he got injured and was out for the season. The Club supported Tim through his recovery and played him as a replacement for the early matches this season to build match fitness. Surely, this is Club loyalty?
You should also consider the Club's treatment of Tuaki and Payten (and others) with their injuries before jumping in with the criticism.

 

[Kul]

St George Illawarra Dragons CEO Peter Doust has issued the following regarding the signing of Tim Moltzen:
>
“The announcement today by the Dragons of the signing of Tim Moltzen was based on information relayed to us about Tim's status with Wests Tigers in 2012 and after discussion with Tim and his management,” said Doust.
>
“Our intention to make this announcement was communicated to Wests Tigers in advance of the announcement even though it has always been our understanding and the standard practice within the game that the club signing a player makes any such announcement.
>
“We do not understand the statement that our announcement is arrogant or disrespectful to the Wests Tigers Club.
>
“Our objective was to release key information that was already being widely discussed.”

It really sounds like Humphreys has no idea WTF he's doing.

 

[Alf_Duguid]

Mr Humphreys is making Steve Noyce look like a genius.

What is his motive? Why is he making this proud club look like fools in the media. It is such a shame

 

[Chunky_love_machine]

WTF, this team is starting to smack of the Terry Lamb era. Screw this, put Chris Lawrence in as CEO,coach and captain NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[tigertales]

Humphries is a FOOL. Who really cares? joke of the league. enough quality to be sitting in the top 4\. CEO who is a joke (at least Doust makes announcements rather than our bloke dragging it on for months and upsetting players). Blame the coach, sure, blame the players sure, but we are an unhappy team at the moment and it is due to the CEO. Telling 6 blokes to look for a job mid season, how would you feel is it was your work?

 

[jimmyz]

those 6 blokes that are leaving should be dropped from next week they were disgraceful tonight and the rest of them should hang there head in shame.

 

[Citizen_Tiger]

Why are so many supporters made of paper mache? Is it a requirement of your support that the CEO organise his day to day agenda, his press releases, his retention decisions, the timing of his signings and his availability to suit your particular view of what balances the Tiger universe? Now it seems you expect him to determine when Saints can and can't make their announcements?

The unreality of some opinions is just overwhelming. The bloke has the best possible pedigree an RL CEO could have and is an extremely talented and dedicated fella. The future of the Clun could not be in better hands. You whining Gen Y's need to buy a bottle of 'man up' pills and put some starch in your shirts

 

[Balmain_Bug]

Humphreys is a living disgrace. To knock Doust and the Dragons by making a public statement blaming them for the signing reeks of disgraceful tactics. The supporters are not stupid. The Sheens/Humphreys era will bring this club to its knees.

 

[innsaneink]

Why is Humpty such an idiot?
The bloke clearly has no idea and need to learn when to keep his trap shut…..he has embarrassed the club, its supporters & Tim Moltzen
Time to go Humpty, take Sheens with you idiot
