          • I wonder if it is backended, like $350k 2026, $450k 2027 etc.

  • A mate of mine who's a massive Tigers fan has said we're letting them have Matterson immediately as part of this Da Silva deal. Anyone else heard that? Not that there'll be too many tears on this site over it...

    • That'd be a win win if true!

      It'd be weird though, given he left a year into his last contract there, and from memory complained about how they managed his injuries or concussion...

      • Matto would need to be released now wouldnt he? Deadline is tomorrow.

        • Matto upset the apple cart of the Tigers hierarchy years back, didn't he?

        • Question just wondering anybody heard about shuan Lane has retired.heard its on Telegraph site  don't know if true or not

  • I wonder if Jake Arthur signing at Newcastle had anything to do with it? He might have thought it was a sign BA was coming and with Matt Arthur already there he might have thought it would limit his progression at Newcastle.

    • Yeah....... the thought of being coached by BA would be enough to scare most juniors who don't have the surname Arthur.

  • I hope he goes well and forms a good combination with Smith, like it was when Brad Drew and PJ Marsh were playing for us. 
    Welcome Da Silva, earn your stripes and show us what you can do.

"Very well summed up. I think an outside back is needed. 
It'd be great to get the alpha forward this off-season, but for 2027 there are a few avaiable we are can get. Honestly I'd want us to go for a top one."
