Player movements and rumours

    Tarago would be a real DWZ type fullback.
     
  2. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    Seems like the most Tigers thing to do now now would be to be to sign:

    Kevin Proctor
    Addo Carr
    Swap Mbye for DWZ or Alex Johnston
    Mitch Rein

    and think it's a raging success.

    St George continue their messed up thinking by offering $1M per season to Christian rag doll Welche

    David Fifita signed for $700K to titans by comparison.

    a) I would not even have Welch on my team
    b) if forced to have himwould offer about 150K
     
  4. Hurricane JD Hurricane

    I like Addo Carr
     
  5. Tartmaster AJ James

    Wasn’t it $1m over 3 years or something.
    Also we paid a lot more than $700k for Fifita.

    Gosh you are right all of my info was based on snippets I heard. Thanks for correcting.

    "Welch $1M over 3 years"
    "Fifita signed what is believed to be the equal-most lucrative contract in the NRL to join the Titans on a three-year deal from 2021, reported to be worth $3.5 million"
     
  7. Lukic L Popovic

    $1m over 3 years for Welch is worth it. He's good not great.
     
  8. AVA T Delonge

    Yeah maybe slightly overs given signing any prop out of Melbourne usually sees a drop in their performance when they leave, but not the worst signing.

    I've got a feeling Tyrone May will end up a Tiger, based on nothing more than a hunch (for all I know he may already have a Penrith contract for 2021)

    Aubusson announced he will retire at season's end. Never been a big fan of the Chooks, but I am a fan of his. Will never be the strongest, quickest or most skilful player on the field, but will always put in and do any job the team needs him to do. Not really any players like this around anymore.
     
  11. Lukic L Popovic

    Blake Green to the Dogs.

    Hope we go after Foran.
     
  12. Hurricane JD Hurricane

    Be careful what you wish for. He's cooked.
     
  13. Hurricane JD Hurricane

    Proctor being circled by:Knights and Warriors

    He is 32. Whoever takes him better be thinking 12 months with option in clubs favour.

    Think they’ll give him a 4 year deal with a player option for the 5th.

    A lot being made of Staines wanting a 2 million 4 year deal after just two games.

    It sounds a lot, but he's been a gun fullback in the lower grade, Flegg player of the year etc and Ponga was signed on more by Newcastle after two FG games on the sting for Cowboys, precedent is there.

    And that Blake Green signing by the dogs is bizarre, although I guess he's probably on absolute base salary with some bonuses if he gets back.

    Was really hoping he'd have picked up a contract at the Tigers or Broncos to add yet another club to the list.
     
  17. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    He signed the contract a few weeks ago, it was just never announced.
     
  18. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Yeah it sounds retarded if your exposure to Staines has just been "fast winger who scored four tries on debut", but he's potentially much more than that. I think it's fine. It'd certainly be a punt from whichever club took it, but it's a fair enough punt IMO.
     
  19. Magic AJ Parker

    Needs to be a compensation fee for the Panthers in situations like this. Paid by the club signing the player obviously.
     
  20. Lukic L Popovic

    Yeah like the Roosters should've paid for Tedesco.
