That’s the weird thing, unless Cleary commits to longer at the Tigers it still kind of leaves them in this holding pattern.


Or it leaves the Tigers in exactly the same position as they were two weeks ago. you assume that its a binary thing, Tigers or Panthers for Cleary's.

Just imagine if there was a team that has more money and resources as Penrith, had a penchant for big purchases and had an opening for a coach and a halfback in two years.

All Ive read here during this saga is how N Cleary was NEVER going to sign with the Tigers. All that has ACTUALLY happened is Panthers have sacked Hook.

So explain to me why N Cleary hasnt signed with Panthers before now then if he loves it there so much. Why does he want to push it out past the nov deadline to test the market. Surely if the Tigers are as shit as you are all saying and he is sure he doesnt want to go to the Tigers it would be simple. Or maybe there are more than two teams that could use a SOO half and a good coach?

Then explain to me how the Tigers are in any different position to two weeks ago.

There are not that many on here who have been bad mouthing the tigers as shit.
Most of us just think we have an advantage for his signature because he has played and thrived with most of this team for basically his whole career.

Unlike coaches he cannot receive offers from other clubs until November.
Even if he is 100% staying it would be absolutely stupid for him to negotiate without fielding offers.

The Tigers will certainly offer him some dollars as will roosters, Brisbane and just about everyone.
Roosters and Brisbane seem to have a much bigger salary cap than everyone else so we certainly could loose him, personally I think he is worth big $$$ but lots on here don’t want to break the bank to keep him.

Not if the panthers sign a coach for 2 years, that’s going to raise some eyebrows.

Its not going to phase the N Politis or Andrew Gees of this world.




I reckon if Panthers so that :p many W/T members and fans will need all sharp implements removed from their being.

If Nathan needs re-signs a long deal with Panthers. Most W/T will need a 24/7 counsellor onboard their forums. :)

Who wrote it and how do they know?

I'm also still yet to be told how we are bullying Tigers. I get downvoted on reddit or snarky joke replies here but no one can say lol.

There’s a press conference scheduled for this morning at west’s leagues, I’m fairly certain it’s on the money. Not sure who the author is.

People say that Nathan is a grown man, and he is, personally I don't have any issues with Nathan consulting with his parents on this incredibly important decision. Also, Ivan will have Nathan's best interests at heart, even if that mean him coming to Penrith, and putting his feelings aside with regards to Gus.

You're right. All i know is Ivan said him and Nathan have that agreement.
