People should know better than to believe reports in the media about cap space or cap pressure.. Just look at how the media reported our cap space last season..

Every fortnight their narrative changed. We had a war chest, then we were a basketcase that no one should go near. Then we had no cap space after signing Fox, Burton, Cotric etc but still somehow signed TPJ, Vaughan, Dufty, Mahoney, Kikau etc.. Then we're a powerhouse again.. Now we're under cap pressure again.. Next week they'll say we have a war chest again. They'll write anything, no matter how factually inaccurate it is to sensationalise and get clicks and views.

Mate did you listen to the last episode of the Bloke In A Bar podcast? FMD Finchy and Kemp kept banging on about how great the Tigers recruitment was and that Sheensy is a god. Last month they were a basket case but now they're suddenly the new Roosters. I didn't know whether to laugh or vomit

I wonder if Tigers fans actually believe that dribble. We all know where they'll finish again next year...poor bastards
yeah i did hear it, they were banging on like the tigpies have signed superstars when in reality theyve got blokes like peachey and its all tim sheen's doing. pft bottom 4 team still

You Have to be a soulless business club.

I don't buy into this family bullshit. Players come for money and a chance of a premiership. End of story.

I know brother ;)

More of a shot at people who call us the family club than you.

TBH it's only the shitty media that call us that to use as a cheap shot.
Yeah the club still calls themselves the family club, pretty sure its their bio line on facebook

SMH love using "Family club", but i think its mainly Adrian Proszenko, and its always used as a shot.

I can cop it because
a/ the first wave of signings were just that - to allow us to sign more players
b/ it hasn't affected us signing top line talent as evidenced by burton, tpj, JAC etc, where as it definitely had previously due to how Lynne and Co were running the club
c/ previously between Des and Gould eras players were not signing for us but that now appears to be fixed

i reckon for all money he's gone. just where he ends up now, which team want him the most. i hope he goes to canberra and might begin a domino effect of early releases meaning we may get reed for 2022. i also dont want the tigers to 'pull off another signing coup' as the media will put it and throw tim sheens on a pedestal for taking a player who we are actively getting rid of
Are we "actively getting rid of" Cotric?

Fkn lol @ any source saying "cap problems". Just proves the dimn fuck saying it really has no idea.
Several days ago I was told of this scenario by something who is a bit of a joker...
Simonson and Hodgson to Parramatta
Cotric to Canberra
Mahoney to Bulldogs

Who said the club doesn't have other options ?
They can keep employing and paying for the deadwood that plagued the club for many years.
It would certainly keep the few whinging Bulldogs fans whinging and the opposite fans laughing :tearsofjoy:

shopping him to 2 or 3 clubs, what would you call it?
Why only 2 or 3 clubs, surely an auction would be better with all clubs invited to bid, 2 or 3 seems like a half arsed effort. We could be leaving money on the table.

Raiders have Timoko and Savage who are 2 promising players that need positions.

Was Cotric signed by Pay and the Anderson’s?
Yes. Barrett just joined too, not sure if done beforehand or not (it wouldn't surprise me if the Anderson's didn't ask for Barrett's input).
