Roosters offer Tedesco a five-year, $6 million deal.

Warriors reportedly interested in Aaron Woods

Lol

The whole Woods thing was last week's made up rumour.

Any further rumours on the subject are Woods manager trying to leverage more money from whatever Sydney clubs he's dealing with.

No chance.

We could use another prop but doubt we would even come close to fitting graham in.

8 Scott
10 graham
15 bolton
17 McLean

f**k off Isaac Moses.

We won't sign Teddy.

His grubby manager is just trying to drum up his contract value.

Being an asshole clearly runs in the Moses family.

Honestly think this oxygen thief is the main issue out of all this contract negotiation debacle but damn he's a smart man. He got his overrated wanker nephews contract value up to a million after a grand total of 10 decent games in his career

Good for a player value point of view, but absolutely toxic from a club point of view. If I was cleary I'd be telling them to get new managers but the damage has probably already been done

Has anyone explained to the Tigers exactly how the whole concept of "odd man out" is meant to work? In the space of a week, we could see them re-sign Brooks & lose Moses, Woods and Tedesco...

YOURE NOT MEANT TO KEEP THE ODD ONE!

I'd wait to see where the dust settles before giving them shit on their roster...

Tedesco said today on the radio "Isaac told me the dogs and roosters are interested but I haven't spoken to them".....how is there a figure being thrown about if they haven't even spoken, clearly this manager is playing games trying to drive up the price.

Lol apparently some bullshit rumour going around that if we lose Teddy and woods we will offer Cronk 1.7mil a season

I don't believe that for one second, if we lost Teddy the first thing we'd need to do is find a replacement fullbck because we have no depth in that position at all

I don't even think Jason Taylor would be dumb enough to do that, yet alone Cleary

Comical

All player managers, bar none, are scum.

That piece of shit who represents DCE is another prime example of managers having too much power.

The NRL needs to reign these fools in.

Mark Geyer made a point a couple years ago about these player managers. He said they are only interested in one thing only the bottom line number and a cut in their commission. He said these guys are not your mates and they don't necessary have your best interests at heart either.

Problem is if we lose Teddy and Woods we would need to sign a big name asap as no one would sign with us if we look like 2016 Newcastle. With Cronk we could convince others to sign.

No idea about the money though, it is impossible to tell was is the real money with all the rumors going around

If the Tigers can get Tedesco to sign I think they've kept the best two of the "big 4"

Woods is overrated and waaay too expensive. And Moses is a liability in defence and hot and cold in attack.

With Tedesco and Brooks they are half way to a good spine. They just need to sort out a decent hooker and get a 5/8 that compliments Brooks.

But seriously...Roosters next year could have a playing roster of

Tedesco
Ferguson
Mitchell
SKD
Tupou
Keary
Pearce
JWH
Friend
Cordner
Guerra

That backline alone is worth like 5 mil.

Ye nah cap doesn't apply for them

I would dare say that any decision they make would have the best interests of the player/client as a distant last.

I am all for making a quid, but not the way these scumbags go about it.

I was just told in another thread the Roosters only buy bargain basement players now and are not big spenders.

Clearly you are wrong and probably need to apologise....

We wouldn't resign Guerra and only one of Fergo/Toops/SKD. That'd be enough for Teddy there. We'd need to buy guys to replace the ones we lost but the cap goes up next year so that'll counter act that.
