    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    I heard an interview yesterday, and sorry cant remember who told the story (Maybe Josh Mansour?), about when Ciraldo took over at the Bulldogs. Apparently there was a lot of pushback to his coaching from certain players who didn't agree with his style, 2 years later and all those players have...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Discussed today on the radio pregame regarding a three way swap, Galvin - Parra, Brown - Knights and KPP - Tigers. Problem now is that after that performance why would Parra let Brown go, still got Lomax to come back in and they can genuinely start winning regular games, atm they are only 2...

    Galvin

    Galvin and Luai have played five games together, so it's not as if dropping Galvin is going to break an established partnership. Get Latu in there asap when he is fit and in the grand scheme of things not a lot of ground has been lost. When we signed him, most people thought Latu was the best...

    Galvin

    Parra seem the natural fit considering they need a 5/8, plus he has spoken openly that he is a passionate eels fan, much to the dismay of tigers supporters.

    Galvin

    It looks to me that Richo has his bases covered for this scenario, Latu waiting in the wings ready to go and Sullivan still on contract for next year. Plus guys like Kurt Falls in NSW Cup give us some depth. Unlike previous times Moses has put us to ransom we haven't had options, this time we...

    2025 Crowd Watch

    Optus in Perth appears to be over the 30k mark at this stage, actually not bad considering I haven't seen any promotion of the games at all, plus the kick off time etc. 1pm on a Saturday, right in the middle of Junior sport plus the West Coast Eagles will be playing at the time at "Gather...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Anyone catch The Fan tonight, Richo must be stoked that Galvin did a segment, filmed at the Tigers COE, talking about how passionate a Parra fan he is. I will give him some leeway because this would of been filmed pre season, but the optics aren’t good considering all the rumours going around atm.

    Western Reds merged with the Hunter Mariners to become the Melbourne Storm. There would be a larger league supporter base in WA than Victoria so definitely foundations are there.

    I think Samuela Fainu has the potential to be as good as any of those 3, fingers crossed.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    This is from a social media post so take it with a grain of salt. Olam met with NRL medical staff on Friday and specialist reports have been submitted applying for salary cap dispensation. A medical retirement ruling would leave the Tigers with around $400,000 free in this year’s salary cap...

    The Las Vegas Thread

    I agree with that part, I think the pushback will come from the NRL team as to how it affects their season re: byes etc considering this game will now be basically played during our round 1. SL teams always seem to make it work, which is why I believe PVL can get it done.

    The Las Vegas Thread

    I'd try and look at a 3 game programme, 1 x SL, 1 x NRL + WCC. WCC would be a logistical nightmare because the teams aren't decided until early Oct, as well as how it will affect the ongoing NRL schedule, but we have PVL and he could make it work. If the NRL becomes involved with the SL then...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Rumour online that Spencer is pissed with how they treated May, and that Roosters potentially looking at Molo as a replacement. If Roosters pick up Molo, that clears the path for Klemmer to Dragons. Again, just online rumours.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    So we are apparently freeing up quite a bit of cap space atm with Klemmer and Olam, now its in the papers that Spencer Leniu wants out of the Roosters, and we have just signed his 2 best mates. Hmmmm.

    The Las Vegas Thread

    Last year got 40k with only a couple of bays on the 3rd tier opened, this year the entire 3rd tier is open for sale so fingers crossed we go 50K+. My only concern is that with 4 games you may never see a full looking stadium as a lot of spectators will come and go for certain games. Personally I...
