.......... The meeting came after veteran playmaker Benji Marshall strongly indicated to the club that he will run around again in 2020.............

yes Great fit Reynolds to the Titans. he has got enough free money from us we must change this culture of signing players after they do ok, lets retain the quality juniors who can sign longer term contracts, younger and longer and cheaper, but these days contracts mean nothing as soon as a good young talent comes along roosters steal at double price.. contracts mean zero

I don't know who would invest anything in Reynolds as a player atm. He has offered next to nothing in three years - even $300k is ridiculous money for enthusiasm. He has been popping up on the media lately, opportunity in other areas is our best bet in moving him on. But at the money we are paying him cant see him going anywhere.

@TigerSJ dogs are not paying any of Reynolds contract. He was off contract at the Dogs.

Good to see us planning for the future. Benji is a 1 year plan, then what?
We have already written off the next year or 2

Tbf, if Reynolds stays, he'll only have one year left after Benji, and who knows if he'd even be fit. So we'd have two one year plans as opposed to one one year plan.
@hobbo1 I would offer a good 2 yr contract to Maloney .. he pretty much ticks all the boxes for what is missing in the team ATM..a winner ...a goal kicker .. calm under pressure ... can clutch play and still has the body to compete each week . This is a no brainer to be honest , that leaves the club 2 seasons to find another long term replacement.. Benji plays reserves and fills in when needed . But as with all decisions this club makes Benji will be the first priority unfortunately!

Imagine if we were told during 2017, during the whole fiasco of the big 4 that Benji would return on what would essentially be a 3 year contract. Boggles the mind.

By all reports Maloney isn't a fan of our club.

Reynolds is made of glass, if another club (not Canterbury) are prepared to pick up half of his contract it would be a good move for West Tigers.
I don't know what club would be interested however?

Our only hope is England. I'm sure his hammies would love that.
@GNR4LIFE if Maloney wants to stay in Sydney he has limited options , it’s amazing how circumstances change as we get older with limited opportunities . These are the situations where the new employees in the football dept will show if there any good or not ! Maloney is the consummate professional ..he has a family to look after !

That's harsh , probably barring Liddle and Thompson he has been our most dangerous player
As long as only one goes around again we can probably live with it
Have heard Robbie's neck and back problems will finish him off in 2019

Agree with that. Maloney has taken teams to the next level when he's joined them.
Highly unlikely Maloney would leave Penrith a year early to come and play at WT. If Maloney is still in the NRL next year, it will be at the Panthers.
I think the club has done the best they can with Josh. Even if they have to pay 400k per year of his contract they can still pick up someone on 350 to 400k who has some output. If Reynolds was a young guy on the way up it would be madness to move him on, but at 30 years of age ( not that i think that is old) and the last 3 years of his career being riddled with injury, well lets just say not to many people improve physically when they move into their 30's in rugby league.
