Rumours and Stuff

Why would you think that? Bryce and J'maine are both in the top 5 in the comp for offloads.

Very surprised to see Paulo is not even in the top 50.

Dumb club.

MON = Tigers DNA

MON operates on this principle..God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.

He has done a very good job at signing the players we want to sign, and the courage not to over spend on blokes they don't want to keep - and is wise enough to know the difference. That, in my opinion, is the big difference between him at the Eels, and and the bloke whoever does the 'hiring' at the Tigers...

Is he an alcoholic????

 

[hineyrulz]

Matto still has a little bit of that in him too, especially when he goes to the edge.

I get exposed often going the edge.

Wouldn't surprise me if he was..some of the fans on this site would drive him to drink!!!..(When I had a pub in Hay we used to say "If your wife drives you to drink, get her to drop you off here"....)

Agree. Bryce has calmed down his offloads for now. I still feel he can and will provide some x factor come finals.

Hopgood,Bryce,Matterson,Jnr,Lane if all can gel with out spine can cause chaos with their offloads.

yeah, our team are full of offloaders and I wish that was our gameplan.

However, we just need to teach them the appropriate timing of when during a game and only if it is 80% sure it will not lead to an error

its probably worth waiting till Hoppy gets a season of NRL footy under his belt before we throw him under a bus

Agree mate. You can sometimes get lucky in the bargain bin. But this year it didn't turn out.
Hodgson - 400k Hands 130k
Moimesea -200k Morreti 130k
Murchie - 250k Mataeli 130k

Moretti and Mataele are outside the top 30, so would be on less than minimum salary. Mataele is actually in the development squad where the maximum is much less than top 30 minimum.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Will take a pay cut to stay.

At his age there will be reduced demand, much like Hodgson. On the other side of their peak, players have to take pay cuts to keep playing. It’s simple market forces.

 

[The Predictor]

He wasn’t the only one but he got exposed big time in the grand final.

Papalli was our worst defender in the GF

No one is throwing him under the bus you sensitive old dribbler.

That's the problem with all you apologists, hyperbole to the max and a very thin skin with a good dose of can't handle reality thrown in.

This is satire, surely?

Well said mate. I mentioned Dunster isn't up for it and they come at me. He just isn't. That's fact. Of course he will improve with game time. But right now not up for it.

And since we signed Paulo (2019) we have topped the NRL in offloads every single year. This year we are a close second to the Tigers.

Barrett’s influence?
