Manly Tigers rift

[The '47ers]

NRL news 2024: The Mole exclusive column; Onitoni Large signing creates 'ill feeling' between Wests Tigers and Manly

 

[Brookie Bob]

A Large rift indeed..............

 

[MissKate]

They got the fainus I call it pretty even. I think they have more pressing issues to deal with than losing one player

 

[sheridanstand78]

They poached Josh Feledy and the Fainu brothers, all Manly juniors, what comes around goes around Tigpies!

 

[tookey]

Does that mean they won't let us sign any of the dud players again?

Hopefully it will happen quickly as rumours around we are close to signing Brent Naden from the tigers

FFS another rubbish signing if true

Where have you seen this? Seems like a move that makes 0 sense

Surely not. He makes Paulo look like a superstar.

He makes everyone look like a superstar

I really dislike this signing but not too worried as he will only feature in NSW cup on minimum contract.
We need these types of signings to free up money for a few good forwards.

I understand why the Tigers would be peed off. As a sign of good will and in the interests of maintaining good relations, I think we should offer back Josh Alioia to the Tigers. I think that would be fair.

 

[Rackets]

If that's upset the Large family, does that now mean his brother Ashton will come across too? Hopefully 🤞

I hope so. Word is, he's even better.

 

[frank stokes]

What the tigpies should be really p*ssed off about is that Manly sent the leakers their way lol...

Good luck with that....

 

[master blaster]

So what they are getting back at us by supposedly giving us Brent Naden, now that is cruel and below the belt lol

 

[Stewbojevic]

It would be quite an ironic outcome if we picked up two brothers from the Tigers with huge potential after they recruited the Fainus!

 

[manly al]

Used to be quite a bit of interchange of players between Manly and the Eels not that long ago and guess before that with Nth Syd . Bears but without too much additional [ Noise } so to speak
Quite a few ex Manly i st graders in the 80 's ended up at Balmain for whatever reason but was not reciprocal

The amount of stability we have in the squad now after moving on the Fainus, Schuster etc has me pretty convinced that they were more trouble than they were worth. Even if they turn out to be handy players, the dysfunction in the sides they are likely to play in means they will struggle to be competitive.

Reminds me of guys like Cody Walker, Latrell Mitchell, JAC etc. - good players but not worth the hassle.

 

[manlyfan76]

Ungreatful sh1t club.
They poaches Scott Fulton from us.

 

[Phobia]

Where did the Naden news even come from? I can't find a single thing mentioning it.

Simon Booth, Russell Gartner, Steve Martin, Matt Nable, at least and Craig Field, John Hopoate, Terry Hill with the early Tigpies
