Id like to keep Garner and if we can add Crichton, that would be massive. He’s a fantastic player and offers a lot to any side.

if we can fit him in and boost other areas, we will be fine.
Well if he is seriously going to souths, or even just looking at that possibility, then he is a very stupid man

Adam Doulie being shafted well and truly at the Tigers.

Might be a handy depth pick up (for the right price).

Offer on the table at Tigers is $150k 1 year deal.

If reports are to be believed he signed for $600k a year for 4 years, and then extended for another year at $750k. He's only managed 57 games in those 5 seasons.
That's 55k per game he's played for a win percentage of 28%.

Not sure I agree with who you say has shafted who.

That is pretty shit really, he should be giving them at least 400k for 2 years with a 3rd year club option.

The Tigers are being smart. If he takes the $150k not much risk. A nice cheapie for the squad. They probably don't care if he stays or not.
If he knocks it back and stays injury free, strings some games together. He gets a better deal. Likely elsewhere.
The gamble for him is. If he knocks them back and then re-injures, he is probably stuffed.

Look I'm just saying no extra money on the cap but the club gets so much in poker machine money. If a company coincidently pops and builds a hipster cafe for him and his buddies it wouldn't be the worst use of money in the world. I'm sure some other Penrith players would regularly buy high priced lattes. It might not be super popular like in Bondi but there's probably a small niche for the kind of things he likes to an extent.

The club's so rich now those kind of things aren't that ridiculous with all that money if the club wanted it to happen.
Didn’t the Dragons used to tell players to pick a pokie at the Taj Mahal and all the revenue from it was theirs back in the glory days of the 50-60s.
