@tigertownsfs DCE managed by Joe Wehbe (former business partner of Isaac Moses but now arch rival). Wehbe has Tedesco and at least 3 others from his stable at the Roosters, the last of whom is Reece Robson who is heading there in '26. He is going to send Daly to the Chooks.
I think Braith Anasta explained this on his recent podcast
Richo was less than subtle about future signings being just around the corner (ie 3 to 4 weeks) when he was talking on James Graham's podcast.
He also did a pretty good job of hosing down the Lachlan Galvin situation too IMO.
@tgrzmn Maybe that is why he wanted the Galvin situation brought to a head .. as he said can not sign players without money . Seems a coincidence that players externally are being signed in weeks , these talks take time .
Richo's insta comments seem it may end up tds or api but maybe not both
seems tds wants to start and get more minutes

CEO Richo?
Not sure what article is being referred to, but I would be prepared to let Api go at the end of his contract (end of 26) and give the full time job to TDS, should he continue to develop as expected/hoped over the next 18 months.
Api will be 34 going into 2027 and I imagine there'll be somewhere around the league that will give him starting minutes.
If we can keep him as a squad player for a year then all for it but he'll have better offers you'd think.
Api is right up there with my favourite all time tigers. He came to this club when we were an absolute rabble because he grew up loving the tigers and he got 2 spoons for his troubles (and counting). He has personally been involved in multiple recruitments from the panthers and he has never stopped giving his all. Benji and Robbie bled for this club and enjoyed some amazing success. Api came at our lowest ebb to try and help us out even though we were/are a laughing stock. I hope we treat him with the highest respect when he decides to retire and I would hate to see him play in another clubs colours
I reckon big chance DCE
Could be an interesting experiment, I’d be on board so long as it doesn’t cost us Latu.

@dirty-reds With PNG and now Perth coming into the league API will be in big demand ..he is the perfect 9 to kick off either franchise Imo . On TDS he is miles away from playing 80mins .
@helmesy I am a Latu fan but there has to be a huge turn around in many aspects of his persona … fitness is a real issue ..his tacking technique needs to change ( head knocks) ..needs to aquire a kicking game of soughts. He is a real works in progress , he could be anything has all the talent but needs to have that desire to move to the next level ,always injured (the broken thumb that happens ) at his age is not a good reflection of where he is at present . I doubt the DCE hype has legs but that could be a master stroke for the team and Latu .

Agree re Api
Re: TDS we don't need him to play 80 mins or at least dominant minutes for another two years. Plenty of time.
