Tigers Movements

[Ghipo]

If only Mayer concentrated more on resigning and less on twitter we would have already have those top 5 resigned.

 

[gronkathon]

That is a very glib reading of the circumstances Ghipo

According to Fox Sport Koro could be up for a mid season move to accommodate the resigning of Nofo.

Obviously Nofo is the one to keep...but I'd hate to see Koro go. He is pretty raw and lacks the finer skills but gee, you can't help but get excited when he makes a break.

Paterson won't get a new deal either......Gospel.

I don't remember the last time he made a break. I'd be comfortable losing Koro if it meant retaining Nofo and Teddy.

Anyone seen or heard anything of Brendan Santi since he went to Parra???
I rated him as player & saw him as a real loss to club, but haven't heard or seen anything about him.......

 

[BrotherJim05]

I think Ava and Gavet are the real key players we need to lock up. If we can sign these two then we will have locked in our pack at least until the end of 2016.

While Teddy would seem like the priority, these two wouldn't command huge salaries as they have limited NRL experience (like Teddy) but are not well known in NRL circles (unlike Teddy).
Lock them up on 2 year deals! All the cash leftover can be gift wrapped and handed to Teddy. If its not enough, stand strong and call his managers bluff...we all know he isn't going anywhere.

The word from Parra is he has been granted a release and MIGHT be heading home to the Tigers. With Mayer trying to offload a few players so he can offer Teddy a deal to keep him at the Tigers, Iam suprized we would be interested. Okay he looked like a very good player in the makings, but we have some real quality backrowers on our books at present who probably would have the jump on him

I dare say we'll need some depth soon, as I dare say Fulton, Paterson, Blair, Halatau and possibly even Thompson won't be at the club for too much longer.

Leaves plenty of holes to fill in that back row.

My thoughts exactly, which is why I asked about Santi.
He is leaps & bounds better than Kyle Lovett etc

 

[Magpie Tragic]

I am reading elsewhere that Santi trained with WT's today, anyone able to confirm or deny that????

 

[Matchball]

He rejoined us according to nrl.com

apparently the Tigers Nathan Brown is being looked at by the Dragons.

A mate of mine who is a Dragons supporter was asking me about Brown so they must be talking about him.

I am guessing Brown is a pi$$ed he is a fair way behind some of our other forwards and with the signing of Lodge he is disgruntled. I know we can't keep everyone but from what I have seen Brown is an aggressive type. It comes down to whether he fits in the team and if or how Potter wants to use him.

I know the Dragons are short on forwards or good forwards so I reckon Brown will go to the Dragons to play regular top grade...

 

[Radical Rat]

I'd much rather they took Buchanan back. He is a plodder of the highest order.

 

[Magpie Tragic]

Whats happening with this John Sila character we signed after Koro went, haven't seen his name mentioned since ???

I know we have signed a lot of current players, but have we signed anyone from outside or let anyone go as yet for next year?

 

[madunit]

Well we will be without FUlton and Anasta next year

I believe Moltzen, Paterson and Thompson are off contract at the end of this year?

I won't be disappointed if we let them all go.

I think its more about whether he fits into the jersey then the team - he trains like George Rose and runs about as slow this year too
