THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN
By Wayne Cousins
Friday, 6 November 2009

Wests Tigers players returned to Concord Oval today to begin preparations for the 2010 Telstra Premiership.
The NRL squad gathered for a series of tests and information sessions. It was also a chance for new signings Jason Cayless, Mitch Brown, Geoff Daniela, Mark Flanagan, Junior Moors, Arana Taumata and Tame Tupou to meet their new team-mates.
For lock Liam Fulton and utility Daniel Fitzhenry, it was a case of re-acquating themselves with some of their former team-mates.
Wests Tigers Football Operations Manager Alan Mair said it was pleasing to see the players back in the new state of the art gymnasium designed by High Performance Manager Steve Folkes.
“The players underwent endurance, strength and skin folds tests,’’ Mair said.
“They all came back with satisfactory results. Our new players really applied themselves well. The players will start full-time training next week under Assistant Coach Peter Gentle and Steve Folkes.”
Wests Tigers CEO Stephen Humphreys said one of the top priorities for 2010 was to improve the depth of the NRL squad.
“To this end, we expect to have a full-time squad of 34 players in 2010 along with six additional players who will train full-time over the off-season,’’ Humphreys said.
“If you think about our squad as 40 players, 11 of that squad played in the successful U20s side in 2009. It is great to see so many of our young players earning places in the top squad.”

They've signed the NRL reject, Arana Taumata..

His been sacked by the Broncos, Roosters, Bulldogs, Storms & now recruited by the Tigers.

Good luck with him.
