Wrrong again Chiefy, go back to the relevant time....yes there was a very strong opinion that this guy was good......that's what I mentioned in my post.....he didn't deliver Chiefy, it was that simple!
PS just like your Jack and the Beanstalk didn't either.
Chiefy you just cannot make stories up to suit your agenda....did you write any articles supporting his non retention.....NO it was universally agreed that Tiger's Offer could not be matched.....change your avatar it makes you look like a thinker.....I will choose one for you!
Which one represents you best young fella?
Chief, you keep mis-representing the Utoikamanu-Alvaro situation. Alvaro was re-signed by Parra before he won the KT medal in 2018. He was our most consistent player in a terrible season. That extension was until the end of 2019 with a single further season player option in 2020, which he activated.
Stefano signed with the Tigers at the end of 2019 for 2021. That was after we have purchased both RCG and Ryan Matterson.
Alvaro's single season extension would not have impacted Stefano's development or first grade aspirations given he was upgraded to Parra's NRL squad during 2020 and Alvaro was shipped off.
More likely, it was the retention of Marata, Kaufusi and Brown along with the recruitment of RCG and Matterson that contributed to his departure. And funnily enough they all formed part of the pack that went to the 2022 grand final.
One thing to consider with Stefano was that his brother was medically retired due to an injury on the field and I am pretty sure the club and his family had some disagreements over insurances or money. So we kind of pissed them off lol
Yes, that is true EA and possibly (I certainly dont know) a reason for Stephano not carrying through his potential with us.
“They told me that I wasn’t going to be a part of the rotation going forward and that I had to bide my time. As a young guy coming through, I knew my time would come, but I was eager to play in the NRL."
“If you want to improve, you need to play in the NRL and experience it. The best thing for me was to leave and it’s been one of the best decisions I made."
“I felt like I had the best opportunity to play at the Wests Tigers. I couldn’t blame Parramatta because they had ‘Reg’ and Junior and were killing it at the time."
I'd like to hear Chiefy's answer to Super's reality check. The irony of Chiefy's position is the myopic take on Stefano, if generalized, would see the club locking in very early on every green sprout and probably having zero recruitment room to move

What more do I have to.say. And you.are excusing the club for this unbelievable failure.
We have 3 times the amount of developed juniors doing well at other clubs than in our top 17. Then people still make excuses for the eels. administration . Biggest joke ever.
Who do we end up with
Kelly
Debelin
Pezet
Volkman
Kelma
Go and celebrate that daz
The club currently is run by nuffys. Until we get someone like Shane Richardson, ill.be more interested in how the chief's are doing, because nothing will happen until people start realising it all starts with Sarantinos and O’Neill
Chiefy, is this the same Richardson who oversaw the Galvin Saga and was responsible for the player options that saw Luai go to PNG?
Can you let us know the sorting principle selecting some examples but ignoring others?
Also, you have not answered Super's point about misrepresenting the Stefano situation. Why misrepresent then not address a query about misrepresenting?
Did you red the part on how many of our development players are at other clubs compared to what's left here.
Why do you keep defending the people who've let this club slip to where it is today
No you don't understand what i am saying. We could want to extend, but they might not want to. Reason being they want to test the market, with two new teams on in the market that is why their management say "hold back" on signing extensions. Why sign a deal worth $300k for two years, when you can get $500k for three years elsewhere? You test the market to get best deal.
