No hurry to trade out Yates.  If he plays he'll make cash (short term at least)

If not just sit on him until a decent trade option appears. Yates to JBrom might be viable in a couple of weeks.

Plan to milk him a bit more, was trying to work out how he fits in to the grand scheme of the knights.
Yeah there's a few options there to upgrade too

Moses asked for immediate release to para...

Yeah just saw this. Highly doubt they will let him leave until the end of the year.

Can you imagine a halves pairing of Brooks and Littlejohn? Yuck!

I wonder if he wants out because Brooks re signed

Why is that funny? Take out Macca, Milf and Boyd and the Broncos would struggle as well.

They struggle with them as well.

Just won't happen.

Tigers are a fucking shambles, as if they going to let players go.

Tedesco won't last either. Serves him right for bailing on the mighty raiders

I'm going to go Cook purely on the basis that I need to sell Brailey at some point - without breaking the bank and getting in a season keeper Cook is the most calculated risk. If nothing else Farah plays Origin and Cook gets a game for 80 minutes.

Peachey -> JT'Lolo
Brailey -> Cook

If their track record is anything to go by they will still end up paying his wages if they release him.

You guys are talking me into Cook. I just know he's a gun with 80 minutes, but just don't know if he will get them. What if they share the role? What if Wallace plays origin? Then again sometimes have to risk it for the biscuit. Could always wait a couple of weeks to see if Segeyaro gets the role to himself but by then you might have missed the boat on Cook. Decisions, decisions.

If Moses is let go, does Little John get the gig for the rest of the year?

No way they'll let him go this year but consider him gone for next

You would think so but I just don't see the Tigers letting him go before the end of the year. Sounds like they tried to lowball him and Parra offered a bigger contract. Wests Tigers said they will revisit his contract in the future but their main priority is signing Tabasco and Woods.

Fortitude wrote:Moses asked for immediate release to para...

If it happens this season, look for Moses to play halfback and Corey Norman to return to playing five-eighth.

Clint Gutherson is so versatile he can play anywhere in the Eels backline.

Fox Sports

Those going Cook, do you still get him if robbie is still on the bench come final lists?

Didn't it say Parra offered him less?

Anyone but the Tigers, and I'd say they wouldn't let Moses go without having a replacement ready.


Tigers forum full of fans happy to see the back of him - more disappointment that we let Austin and TMM go than missing Moses.
This saga has turned a lot of Tigers fans off the "Big 4"

I'll be sad to watch Teddy go and kill it elsewhere, but a proper clean out should be good for the club long term.

No idea, I haven't read anything on the matter except 140 characters from Twitter.

TLDR.

Don't be an arse, if you are going to come back off your holiday with constant poor attitude, go back on it

The TLDR is he wants to play for a club that isn't the tigers. I think he will be let go early, but only if they get Woods/Teddy signed as they won't want those blokes doing the exact same thing.
