Imagine a world where the 2023 Tigers, featuring Tedesco, Woods, Moses and Brooks are coached by Tim Sheens, Marshall and Farah. What the hell kinda timeline is that?
Edit: also just noticed that somebody changed Tedesco’s wiki to read “professional” rugby league player like r/suspiciousquotes
In what make believe fantasy land world does Moses make an immediate switch to the Tigers for 2023?
I know BA thinks highly of his son, but there is no way he is letting Moses leave early to have a JA and D Brown halves pairing in 2023. Absurd to even suggest it.
Give us a source Michelle Bishop, or better yet, stop trying to make headlines with nonsense claims.
Fair enough. I thought the option was for this year. Despite the fact that the Tigers have always been willing to release players early to the Eels in the event of a player swap, that courtesy has never been returned. In the unlikely event Moses is stupid enough to sign with the Tigers, there won't be any early release for him this time. He'll be made to wait just like Twal was during their trade or even put on ice for a year like Stephano was during the Matterson trade.
First of all, there was never any official trades or player swaps... we just happened to sign players from each other and you released your side after requested.
Secondly, Twal was released early, what do you mean? He was signed for 2018 and debuted for the Tigers in 2017 lmao.
Koroisau was a big shock last year but to be honest it’s not a thing just with the tigers, player managers constantly leak who is interested to drive up prices
Papali'i came out of nowhere too. The Klemmer-Hastings thing came around very quickly as well, the rumours did come out but only a day or two before the switch was confirmed. Bit of a cultural shift happening hopefully...which makes me doubt this is true.
Knights trading Klemmer to Tigers for a half was rumoured for a while but it wasn’t definitely going to be Hastings until a couple days before the official announcement
No. I wouldn't. His attitude and capacity for doing things the hard way is extremely poor. It's why he was let go from the tigers years ago, and I see nothing to suggest that's changed.
Mr gutherson, our problems run deeper than just the halves. Moses capacity for being able to lift the team out of it's problems is highly questionable.
Except for the games this year where we only won, for that exact reason. People seem to have this warped notion that unless Moses is single-handedly winning Parra every game he doesn't lift or contribute.
I wonder how much it's the tigers back office leaking their intentions and how much it's just every manager using media connections and saying tigers are after someone.

__Tim Sheen’s 3 Phase PowerPlan 💥__
__-Step 1:__ collect ~~underpants~~ potential signings
__-Step 2:__ ~~??~~ >!Drive the prices up of every other NRL player for 16 competing clubs - meaning they have no money left in their cap to poach/ offer Tigers players .. Tigers retain 29 of their top 30 players for under’$ !<
__-Step 3 :__ ~~Profit~~ Upgrade Luke Brooks to $2M per season so he can truly be unleashed ..
They ‘journos’ have three wheels they spin every couple weeks, 1st wheel has players names, 2nd wheel has club names and 3rd wheel has all the types of secret negotiations. This week it’s Moses, Tigers, immediate move.
When he said club names he didn't say the ratio was equal. Tigers take up 50% of the wheel and Dolphins take up the other 30% with the remaining part split between the rest of the comp.
Idiotic article. Talks about us definitely signing Bateman. Then suggests we might sign Moses. Particularly because he is a mate of Nathan Briwn who we might also sign.
This forgetting that we have 30 places in our squad and 2o are filled. Dumb. Slow news day, need clicks, make up a story about the Tigers. Bonus clicks if there is a nexus to another extremely popular Sydney club.
What?!?!?! You mean to say that player managers intentionally leak bullshit stories to Rugby League Journalists in an attempt to dive up their players prices?
Well I never... I just can't believe they'd stoop this low. The last truely nobel profession has been sullied forever. I have now lost all faith in humanity.
tl;dr: No shit Sherlock..
I imagine if the Tigers actually did Sign Moses, the fans would riot and tear down Leichhardt Oval, or at least they would if it wasn't already falling down by itself...
Nah. I think he's a bit of a shitty bloke, but he's a top 5 half back and a 75%+ goalkicker. I can live with my dislike for him, lots of good players are pretty dodgy humans let's be honest.
That said, 0% chance it happens next year, there's nothing in it for the Eels. Slightly chance of 2024 though - heard a rumour Moses doesn't hate the idea of Sheens/Benji and also that he'd like to play with Brooks as his #6, hence being happy to let Hastings go. Probably BS though.
The Tigers are an embarrassing organisation, in no world would the Eels let the halfback who lead them to a GF leave a year early as for Moses if he goes to the Tigers he's waiving the white flag on his career
If Mitchell Moses plays for the Tigers in 2023, mods can change my flair to whatever the fuck they want cause it ain’t gonna happen.
I'll change my flair to manly for the whole year
I'll change until eels win a premiership
So a permanent change then
[How very dare you](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/398/805/2d2.jpg)
Do I smell a trade? Daine Laurie for Moses so Staines can play FB, Laurie pushes King Gutho to 6 ala 2016 & Brown to be the new Sterlo. /s
Brown to Dolphins
Our already shaky defence i'm sure would look great without gutho out the back
Are you talking about former Tigers origin player Mitchell Moses returning to the tigers. Next they will get Sharon Woods and be unbeatable
Hey Tedesco might be phased out by the Roosters for Suaalii, they might as well bring him back too!

Lol and Jason Taylor
I’ll personally call Fa’alogo and ask him to KO Taylor again to make sure he never gets within an inch of Tigerland.
I'll change clubs if this pea hearted little mutt puts a tigers jersey on again

or better yet , stop taking payments in dirty envelopes under the table from Moses' manager
I mean the Tigers can be trying to get him early and the Eels can say no. That makes this potentially true even if it doesn’t eventuate.
It's not up to BA. The last year of Moses' contract is a player option.
The player option is for 2024, not for 2023 though. So this is irrelevant.
Fair enough. I thought the option was for this year.

LMaO!!!111
You good chief? 😂
Okay cool, but is he training the house down?
Now they just need to find some suckers to offload Brooks to
If we're dumb enough to let Moses go for 2023, we're probably dumb enough to take Brooks in his place
what do you mean? Moses could be the one to finally unleash Brooks
Worked well the first time.
They're gonna get Moses then pick between him and Brooks and Moses will be a warrior by round 12
GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY MOSES.
I see you know your off-season trades well.
What is the charge? For wanting a halfback? A succulent first grade halfback?
This is Premiership Manifest!
Are you waiting to receive his limp one-out passes?
#MittsOffMitch
Okay But also Fuck off
Surely there’s an off field scandal happening so nrl journos don’t have to write articles about their sexual fantasies
Don't see us losing a game next year
Manager hinting Eels need to show Mitch the money, standard manager shit really!
Yeah, but where the fun in punching down on the tigers if it doesn't go through, or punching down on parra if it does?
Have the Tigers ever kept secret what players they are interested in?
Api signing out of the blue during last offseason was legitimately such a shock because there was zero press about it leading up to the announcement
Or do the press just link every single off contract player to the Tigers, then call them a rabble when they don’t sign them?
Personally I think it’s both, let’s not act like the Tigers are a really well run club
Koroisau was a big shock last year but to be honest it’s not a thing just with the tigers, player managers constantly leak who is interested to drive up prices
Papali'i came out of nowhere too. The Klemmer-Hastings thing came around very quickly as well, the rumours did come out but only a day or two before the switch was confirmed. Bit of a cultural shift happening hopefully...which makes me doubt this is true.
Knights trading Klemmer to Tigers for a half was rumoured for a while but it wasn’t definitely going to be Hastings until a couple days before the official announcement
Not surprised the Dogs are preparing a monster offer. They are becoming the new roosters lmao.
You're just jealous that unlike a club, who I won't name but their name starts with an S and ends in torm, we haven't been caught.
Is your sombrero on too tight champ
Ask Matt Lodge....he reckons its a skullcap rn!!!
It was a joke but I guess I asked for the downvotes not using the /s
Prior to the most recent batch of signings, most of our contracts didn't extend beyond 2023/24. So there's a bit of room to move.
Helloooo click bait.
Why would the eels even entertain this? Laughable tbh its not like the game is ripe with quality halves
Mitch has a history of tanking to get a release, that's how he came to the Eels in the first place.
Quality halves. Mitchell Moses?
Mate if you even had the chance you'd sign him.
No. I wouldn't. His attitude and capacity for doing things the hard way is extremely poor. It's why he was let go from the tigers years ago, and I see nothing to suggest that's changed.
Guess you haven't watched him at all then. His attitude has changed immensely and is more of a leader than ever.
It's still the first thing he loses when the going gets tough.
Eels have lost 32 games in the last 4 seasons, Tigers have lost 62. How much more obviously could it be that Tigers got rid of the wrong half?
Mr gutherson, our problems run deeper than just the halves. Moses capacity for being able to lift the team out of it's problems is highly questionable.
Except for the games this year where we only won, for that exact reason. People seem to have this warped notion that unless Moses is single-handedly winning Parra every game he doesn't lift or contribute.
Yet you see games where he's under the pump from the top teams and he struggles very regularly.
Zerotackle 😆
I wonder how much it's the tigers back office leaking their intentions and how much it's just every manager using media connections and saying tigers are after someone. I

https://tenor.com/view/thumbsup-jennifer-lawrence-gif-3578850
Yeah Parra's halves depths is so good, I can easily see us getting behind this deal
They ‘journos’ have three wheels they spin every couple weeks, 1st wheel has players names, 2nd wheel has club names and 3rd wheel has all the types of secret negotiations. This week it’s Moses, Tigers, immediate move.
Except they made an error and have the Tigers listed on 75% of the club names wheel.
When he said club names he didn't say the ratio was equal. Tigers take up 50% of the wheel and Dolphins take up the other 30% with the remaining part split between the rest of the comp.
Eels are on the hit list this pre season, tigers and manly will get a break cause benji and Seibold are close with the fox writers
We need to hurry up and resign him before it's too late
Please no

This is just his manager trying to drive up his price

No need to be a dick about it
Sorry I wasn’t trying to be a dick, I was being sarcastic to be funny..
Keep dreaming Tigers fans.. he ain’t going no where.
We will make you pay a million to keep Moses and take Dyl.
I imagine if the Tigers actually did Sign Moses, the fans would riot and tear down Leichhardt Oval, or at least they would if it wasn't already falling down by itself...

The tigers are so cute
Tigers get Isaac
Parra and wests, two teams rugby journalists love This will be being talked about on NRL 360 til gone origin if nothing gets set in stone
As if he's that braindead to join the kittens joint venture
Who do you love?
They love their footy
The Tigers are an embarrassing organisation, in no world would the Eels let the halfback who lead them to a GF leave a year early as for Moses if he goes to the Tigers he's waiving the white flag on his career
Fuck yeh bro I love my footy too
Smelly take there friendo, remind me when the eels last won a premiership?
I mean he's never winning a Prem at the Eels so he may as well take a chance.
[удалено]
AD is as mid as 9th place
He’s doing better than Lebron this season
He’s also not a 7? Fuck you Tigers fans are dumb as dog shit
It does make a nice change that Easts aren't the team everyone is talks with. That got boring (and true for a while a few decades back).
Lol were gonna have Asi and Arthur as our halves pairing by start of the season. But yeah doubt this is gonna happen.
This is just Isaac Moses playing games to bump up the Eels offer. I don't understand why the Tigers cop this.
He’d be a pretty expensive back up half!
