Three year contracts in general make sense, but unless that contract starts after his current one finishes, I can’t see why he’s bother

Tigers coach Michael Maguire has opened up on the two positions he feels the Tigers need to strengthen to return them to finals contenders.
The Tigers currently sit 13th with their slim finals hopes on thin ice and Maguire wants to strengthen the front row and outside backs while bringing in or producing a representative player to take his side to the next level.
“
I’d like another big front-rower,” Maguire told
SEN 1170s Drive with Joel and Fletch.
“That’s always something you’re looking for, a strong guy at the front.
“One thing I am looking for is the player that can take themselves from an NRL player, to the Origin arena through to an International.
“The reason I say that is because you need those players in finals series and Grand Finals.
“The more you spend playing at that level, the more comfortable you are.
“There’s a reason they’re the best players in the competition and they’re the ones that win you the comp.
“It’s finding those types of players now in and amongst the group now, is it a Daine Laurie or a Shawn Blore? We’ve got a lot of good young players coming through.”
Maguire also admitted the club would like to eventually add a strike weapon in the backline, when the right target emerges on the open market.
“When the times right, we’d like to find a strike weapon that may become available,” Maguire said.
“But one thing at the moment, there’s not many around, so you’ve got to be disciplined to hold on until the right one comes around.”
