If that happens it is a fantastic signing

If you pay market value you get an origin tier forward and a pack leader for less than the price of an origin tier player due to a few injuries

Person who said it, is usually 50/50 with their info. But I do agree, it would be a good signing for us if it does eventuate.

Nathan Brown would be good for the Tigers if he stays fit. His recent injury history makes me dubious about him, especially for fantasy purposes

I feel he’s more unlucky than injury prone, and luck turns.

Brown’s injuries seem like one-off injuries unlikely to reoccur - ankle sprain, pectoral tear. It’s not a dodgy hammy like SJ/Moylan/Turbo or Surgess/Benji with their wrecked shoulders where it’s likely to happen again.

But I could either be forgetting one of his injuries or just plain jinxing him here.

It does seem mental, especially as it’s his 4th contract already and he just literally walked out on the last one. 50/50 it ends with him wanting an upgrade the Sharks can’t afford in two years time and being shopped around.

The other 50 - he isn't playing to potential and taking up too much cap space and being shopped around.

Wonder how many mins Taupau will get

Taupau will be a monster for st least the first 2 weeks and you have to think those guys will be eased in. Taupau could be handy pick up and then dumped off to a rising castle week 4 or 5

We gave Nrown up for peanuts and he has played his best years; of course it's time for the Tigers to get him back...

Bloke was a plodder with us so understand why we let him go originally.

A couple of headlines:
Latrell Mitchell wants to be a Cowboy
Cody Walker's demands are too much for Souths so could be forced out

Matterson back to parra on 3 year deal, confirmed on parra website

This puts him firmly in contention for my squad again

Running in that corridor Ma'u scored a bunch of tries to go along with his base stats

He also won't get moved to the halves

definitely an interesting proposition outside Moses. Should play the 80 week in week out...

D. Fifita is 99k cheaper than Matterson.

I don't know why the Eels let Matterson go in the first place, good to see him return

I read he left because he wanted to play 5/8 and was being transitioned to the backrow. Which is funny given where he’s at now career wise. Also suggests maybe issues with Tigers is more on him than the Tigers.

Sonny
Bill
Wolfpack

Wonder who else will sign now that he has.

Val Holmes

Matterson comes across as a real sook.

So David Fifita is in jail in Bali and that's a thing that's happening now.
