Moltzen to be squeezed out
The Tigers have no room for injured fullback Tim Moltzen on next year's roster - despite the fact he is under contract. Exciting youngster James Tedesco is now clearly entrenched as the club's number one fullback. He was outstanding against South Sydney on Friday night and has been the club's most consistent back in 2013 - despite playing with a broken bone in his leg. Moltzen has always been closely aligned to Benji Marshall but no longer enjoys the support of senior players. He will be offered a release from the final year of his contract in coming weeks and has held talks with English clubs. The Tigers have some great kids coming through but need to get rid of the dead wood - the likes of Moltzen, Matt Utai and Lote Tuqiri - to give them a chance to come through.
