Tom Jenkins has turned his back on plenty of interest from other clubs and extended with the Penrith Panthers for another 3 years!
but but but I thought he was a sure thing to sign at Parra?

Good on Jenkins for showing loyalty to the club that took a leap of faith in him. We've done the same with many of our youngsters and hopefully it will be returned some day soon.
Recruitment you have to set these moves up not jump onboard 2-3 months out.
This is why we need another team builder who understands how this shit works.
I don't think we need players I think we need a recruitment specialist who has an over arching plan.It seemingly doesn't exist at Parra shit we are having issues getting Jnr Paulo to finish his career at his junior club..I've got a real sneaking suspicion one of these expansion clubs is going to offer a Junior a 2-3 year retirement gift to finish his career.
Milky good for him like many have mentioned showing club loyalty he knows where his breads buttered.I suspect old mate at Penrith Matt Cameron has a plan regardless of who there losing.Undoubtedly if they lose a lot of that older talent a hitlist will be being formed and probably has been in the background stewing for a couple of years.
MON probably offered him 100k a year and a backyard bbq at hes place.
that tubby fuck needs to go as well as the rest of the board!
I bet Ryles is getting sick of it
This is really disappointing.
Understand it would be very difficult to entice players from the Panthers system, so not throwing R&R under the bus on this one in isolation, but I feel many underestimate Jenkins as a player.
Being surrounded by good players & being in an elite system likely does make him a better player, but I find that such a strange 'criticism' of a player.
He's a very good player - good defender, brilliant in the air (great for Moses), his positioning & finishing is excellent, can play multiple positions & most importantly has elite speed which is so helpful in both attack and cover defence.
Jenkins would've been a sensational purpose.
Not fussed on missing out on milky.
Wouldn't be surprised if the suli and falou rumours are true. Seeing this 1 was supposed to be strong mail. We may get both before june 30th.
I guess it's somewhat positive?
Absolutely disgraceful could only get 1 deal done b4 June 30th with our injury toll.
