The Wests Tigers are in danger of losing star centre Esan Marsters next season.

The Kiwi Test ace is under contract for 2020 but has told those close to him he wants a release, with both the Cowboys and Bulldogs ready to swoop.

The 23-year-old, who played every game for the Tigers last season and was the club's top pointscorer, is a frustrated footballer.

Marsters is a specialist right side centre - although he has played some recent games on the left edge - and sees little football with the Tigers principally a team that attacks down the left side.

The strong centre is the Tigers' equal top tryscorer (nine) with fullback Corey Thompson this season, but believes he can do better with more ball.

Last Sunday's big win over the Dragons summed up Marsters' dilemma - he barely saw the ball, whereas his teammate Paul Momirovski bagged three tries on the opposite side of the field.

If Marsters does leave, expect the Tigers to go all out for sacked Knights centre Jesse Ramien.

BULLDOGS GET SOME CONSOLATION

The Bulldogs are another club in need of a boost after missing out on signing both Apisai Koroisau and Jesse Ramien in recent days.

And here it is: one of the stars of the club's late season surge, Raymond Faitala-Mariner, has abandoned plans to leave the club.

Faitala-Mariner wanted out more than once this season, especially when he couldn't make Dean Pay's starting side.

But the Kiwi-born forward's strong form in the second half of the season has seen him have a change of heart.

He's happy with his football at Belmore again and isn't about to be going anywhere.

I’d be happy if we signed him. Good player and wouldn’t want Latrell money.
Cue the negative posts

Marsters would be a great addition, wouldn't break the bank either.

I'm probably in the minority but Marsters has never really excited me that much.

I think he has. McGuire has really blunted his potential if you ask me. He is a shadow of the player he was a season ago.

His offloads are significantly down as well - it's only been towards the back end of the season when they had to find points that he had more reign to throw that pass if needed.

Plus - he is a VERY handy GKer. I would take him tbh

Solid back 5 for 2021, even 2020 without Mitchell look handy.
1 - DWZ
2- Hoppa
3- Mitchell
4- Marsters
5- Smith

Could live with that.

23 years old, played in the halves growing up, plays centre now and kicks goals. Yeah I would swoop on this guy for sure if I was our club! Way better prospect then Ramien. I have noticed him in the games I have watched.

Played Rep footy every year since 2015. Check out his full name: Esan Nike Marsters-Saivale

You reckon Foran, DWZ, CHN and RFM etc would have any influence in signing Kiwis?
