OFFICIAL Sullivan to join Wests Tigers

[Buttface]

Idk he might see union as a challenge. If it was only about money surely he could have gotten fullback money playing at another club.

Yeah I think they all love the challenge until they’re playing reggies in their new code. Union or league.

A couple of injuries and we'll be glad for the depth.

Buzz guaranteed he’d be back mid season for $500k on NRL360 and everyone seemed to agree (I know it’s only buzz)

Because the Japanese rugby season finishes in May...

He can have his cake and eat it too!

As nasty as this may sound but with who we have signed and who we have I would be trying to move him on , unless he starts killing reserve grade and out playing his opposite number next 2/3 weeks he won’t make it back to first grade , Sezer is way ahead plus Benji may be looking at others like the young manly recruits ( Brothers ) Sam going very well each week his brother will keep getting better if given a chance .
Galvin and Luai will be our half’s next year with Latu and Sezer as back up

Sezer wont be here..hes off contract withWTs at yr end,and a $500k short term solution to the several desperate clubs without a short term 7.Gotta accept that at thios time of his career
At his age... he will take the $$ for possibly a 2 yr contract
We cant compete ,and nor shld we.Weve made our halves commitments
Latu doesnt want to be a "back up"...he has much loftier expectations...and rightfully so in a market thats desperate for 7s.We need to provide him an opportunity to show what hes got
Gonna be a challenging balancing act for Richo..but cant think of anyone more capable of doing that

Sure and STICK TO THE PLAN!

Sezer is not "The Plan" long term. We may be able to keep him for a year, but as you say if your Sezer your going to want a juicy 3 year contract if you can get it. (still not sure he can).

The plan is Luai. You can pair Sezer and Luai for a few rounds to help them adjust. Carry Galvin on the bench and play Fainu in the backs. The 1.2 Million dollar plan is Luai in the halves!

We have to seriously give Luai a decent go at Halfback.

Meanwhile, before Luai was signed. The plan was to have Sezer mentor 3 young Halves in Galvin, Fainu and Sullivan. Yes Galvin has had a few good games and Sullivan has had nothing. Make it clear to each of them that if they perform, they play. Ofcourse we all know we would give Sullivan the flick if anyone made a good offer. Still he has signed here for 4 years on 500k, might as well try to get the best out of him.

Particularly if we can use the threat of Sullivan to make Fainu and Galvin fight harder for their spots.
