Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

Dickhead & impostor tigers fan on 2mmm James Hooper claimed he won’t join us this season which means he will.

Hooper has as much truth to him as he has hair on his head

Remember he said Moses & Keary were gonna be NSW halves LOL

 

[The Charlatan]

Hooper is a f**ken muppet.

He's a tigers fan?... good lord...i would have guessed ( and prefered) parra if anybody

The way he trashes us I'd say it's highly debatable.

Definitely seen him at games in his Tigers' jersey. Often claims to be a Tigers member publicly too.

Maybe he lost a bet? ( clutching at straws)

Hooper claims to be a tigers fan yet has picked us for the wooden spoon every year for the past 5 years

It would be interesting to know for how much and how much the dogs are chipping in

No reference to any payment details/arrangements on the app article. It’s a very bland piece to be honest:

Cleary and Pascoe happy that he will be with us from next year

Bulldogs state they are happy to provide MBye with a release.

That’s pretty much it.

Sunday papers were reporting $250kpa

NRL.com was saying $300kpa

Either way we’re getting a good player at a discounted rate

 

[Das Hassler]

Do these arrangements typically run for the duration of the former club's original contract?...if so that would be for 2 full seasons?

 

[Clifferd]

Oh hoops was right for once lmao

I guess one outta 100 ain’t bad

 

[Tigerm]

Don't know too much about him, but gotta a feeling he could be real good for us.

 

[Leigh Howlett]

Hoping that Mbye bails out on the the Dogs!, could be the X Factor for the Tiges!.

Top signing and on mates rates makes it even better. Just a pity we couldn't get him for the rest of this year. How many roster spots do we have to fill by 30 June? Any?

 

[Tiger05]

It doesn't get any more official that this:- https://www.weststigers.com.au/news/2018/05/29/wests-tigers-sign-moses-mbye/

I'm pretty stoked with this signing. A quality player with a tonne of speed who isn't at the end of his career.

4 years though?

Ivan loves adding that extra year..

I was thinking the same.I don’t get y the desire to sign players who r nothing special for 4 long yrs.For someone who plays in the spine & who’s supposed to b quick he has only scored 16 tries in 90 matches from ‘14 to the present.Thats a strike rate of just over 3 tries per season.Thats deadset appalling & reinforces how massively overpaid he is.

I think he is solid but hardly a superstar...

Sign him for three and if he is going good extend him at the end of 2020...

I can’t understand the need to sign him for 4 years now... there doesn’t appear to have been any competition for him and the Dogs need to offload him...Should have been a buyers market..

Anyway.., too late now...
