Moorey and Newy as well.
Three left from '04. Thats qualifies as a rebuild.

Shane Tuck has been offered a one-year contract extension for a third season in succession, after he was initially put on the trade table and received no takers.

Although understand why you'd suggest 2 year

I just think it is a very smart move to only offer players 30+ one year deals (Tucky is 31 in Dec BTW)

So 1 year is perfect for both parties I reckon

Yeah from a business point of view you are dead right, very smart.

More and more clubs are doing it these days too, so the 1 year deals are accepted by the players.

Happy to give Tucky +1 year until his body fails him, hopefully that's another 4-5 years!  :cheers

Could go on for another 4 years with his genes. Tucky is a dead set tiger legend.   :bow

Has had a better season but so long as Tuck and Jackson are still getting a game for us we'll struggle to play finals.

Can't be serious man? Jacko is average but Tuck is a good player. Fantastic second half on the weekend

Tuck is the same as always just surrounded by better players.
He still chucks it on the boot and is still weak defensively but these days his errors are hidden better.
Also think that the 3 man bench has helped his cause a little.
Looking forward to the upgrade whenever it comes..
