Sign him NOW. I'v watched him plenty and i can't see what all you knockers are on about. For the last few weeks he's done absolutely nothing wrong and still he gets bagged on this forum every week. Come on every one just admit when you are WRONG. The contract dispute last year wasn't Moltz's fault, I think it's the Tigers fault because they were the ones that told Moltz to look else where, knew that he didn't want to go, knew that he signed with the dragons then when the deal was all but done said no it's all right we'll have ya back because we are gunna sack a girlfriend bashing drunk. My view is that the Tigers owe him more then Moltz owes the Tigers.Moltz's name has been dragged through the mud and still people on here bag the crap out of him.Sign Moltz NOW.
We Should Re Sign Tim Moltzen

Wests Tigers fullback Tim Moltzen not yet offered new contract by club

THE future of Wests Tigers fullback Tim Moltzen remains uncertain, with his agent sounding a warning about the club's failure to table a new contract.
The tug-of-war between the Tigers and Dragons over Moltzen became the biggest contract saga of the summer.
Moltzen knocked back a three-year contract with the Dragons on the grounds he was "depressed" about leaving Concord and carrying a serious shoulder injury.
Now six months on, the fullback remains unsigned at the Tigers beyond October.
"It's a major concern. With all the kerfuffle that went on last year, I'd thought we'd have something sorted by now," his agent Martin Tauber said.
"Have the decency to let the boy know what's going on. No wonder he's had uncertainty his entire career.
"The club have a lot to answer for that debacle last year. There's no point hanging the kid out to dry for somebody else's mistakes."
Wests Tigers coach Tim Sheens and chief executive Stephen Humphreys confirmed that the club was in discussions to extend Moltzen's contract.
But Tauber told The Sunday Telegraph he had opened negotiations before the start of the season and was becoming increasingly concerned at the club's failure to submit a formal contract.
"That's with the club and the manager at the moment. I haven't spoken to Warren (McDonnell, Tigers recruitment manager) about it in the past few days, but the last instruction was to sit down to try to sort it out," Sheens said.
"It's not an issue from the point of view of having to be done today or tomorrow, but it's certainly something that we want to sort out soon."
After turning their season around, the last thing the Tigers need is any form of off-field distraction, especially after all the upheaval at Concord over player movement months ago.
Humphreys remained confident the club and Moltzen could come to an agreement.

He has to earn a contract and he is doing that. Exactly the way you want it
The only way Moltzen will stay at the Tigers if he and his manager are willing to take a reduced contract. The decision on players like Utai and Tuqiri could also have an influence as well as the youngsters in Tedesco, Rudolph and Rowe coming through.
Hope Moltz is offered a contract but he won't be getting the cash he could have got at the Dragons

I was one who rubbished Moltzen earlier in the year and believed he should have been dropped to NSW Cup.
Credit to him and credit to Sheens for lifting his confidence, he is playing really well and putting his body on the line.
Although I don't like the fact he's a confidence player. When he decides to have a poor run of form could become costly for us.
My heart says keep him my head says let him go.

x3\. Used to think highly of Tauber with the way he has managed Marshall, but the public spat with Moltzen and some of Tauber's comments leave me less than impressed.
Tim is playing decent football, but he can play better football, and given his inconsistency, I can see why the Tigers would offer him a reduced contract.

It's a tough position.
I understand the club not rushing because where is he going to play? As far as I can see, we have far better long-term options in our 1, 6 and 7.
Is Moltz going to be happy as our 14? As far as I'm concerned, that's the problem. The Tigers can't offer much if he is going to be our utility and I'm sure that's why they tried to offload him last year.
I'm sure he would slot in to the starting side during injuries, but he isn't going to be good enough to start in 2013.

The decision won’t affect Tedesco he has already been signed on an NRL contract and is the number 1 fullback choice. Rudolph and Rowe would be affected.
The new signings from other clubs I assume are top 25 players so if we resign Moltzen then others in the top 25 will have to go to accommodate keeping him.
Who are we willing to let go to keep Moltzen?

I think they are the only 2.
His not really a manager his an accountant or something. What happen to Tauber being investigated by the Player Manager association ?
