Sure. 2025 is gone ...2026 is our focus, or at least it should be.

either other clubs wanted him, or they didn't?
Name another club that wanted him? We know how many wanted da silva.
@AndWeDon'tCare has just outed himself as Phil Gould. Welcome, Phil!I could go on forever about this topic and certain clubs ability to attract players for "less money", the whole facade/charade that are "third-party deals" however, I'm sure I'd give my true identity away and the NRL and I aren't on good terms at present, so best I leave it at that.
His current(previous) club (Knights) offered him a deal, as per his own thread.
So? were we bidding against 4-5 teams for a 400k plus player? no we got an injured player from the knights that is hardly the time to crack the champagne.
If the argument you are making is we are an attractive option than name a rooster,panther,bronco,storm,dogs young star that we have grabbed? name a player that those clubs wanted that we got?
The truth is we get tigers cast offs and now we are getting shunned by them. That's just the facts I would love to say we are a powerhouse but we are not as a fan I'm not happy about that but it is what it is.
Des wouldn’t of been cheap,so the $$$ is there for a decent coach,it’s just the inability of those making the decision to identify one$$$ gets talent, $$$ gets actual good players, $$$ gets the better coaches too. Without the $$$ the side will always be poo.
You asked me to name another club who wanted him.
I named them.
Stop shifting the goalposts.
The cards =$$$It was reported that TDS had a meeting with Seibold / Mestrov recently
.......................................................................and the rest is history
Seibold and Mestrov did not have the cards
Ryles must have impressed him . He had the ace of spades
$$$ gets talent, $$$ gets actual good players, $$$ gets the better coaches too. Without the $$$ the side will always be poo.
So you have nothing? I'm arguing we are no longer an attractive club and your push back on that is Paul Bryan signing wow ok I'll leave it to you.
The phins are already a $$$ power house.Woolf seems a decent coach can't imagine he is on massive dollars.
I'm a bit confused about your comment. It just doesn't add up.This last minute farce of failing to get our man
Never happened when we had the best administrator and negotiator in Arko
and he used to sign them for unders 😉
Never let the facts get in the way of a @BOZO rant .......I'm a bit confused about your comment. It just doesn't add up.
The ARL / NSWRL, introduced a salary cap in 1990.
In 1984, Ken 'Arko' Arthurson became the Chairman of the Australian Rugby League (ARL) and in 1986 took over from Tom Bellew as Chairman of the New South Wales Rugby League (NSWRL).
If what I have researched and written is true, how could he have paid unders to sign players?
Your argument that we cannot sign players others clubs want is incorrect though, as proven only just today.
So the young forward we have swapped Arthur for , he’s injured and not available until next year ??? ( is that correct )
So didn’t fix our lack of forwards this year does it !!
What a pity
