A colossal achievement, 40-10 losers.

For Opacic?
You need to provide some context to some of your statements.
We can't match 1 mil a year that titans will offer.
if that's even remotely a rumour, it is because someone saw what Billy Moore said on Queenslanders only.
he was asked how much Taylor was worth and said "If Ben Hunt is worth 1.2 Million then Taylor is worth 1 million"
FYI, i just saw a segment from before we signed Bird where Craddock said we offered him 700k a season (now all the media have inflated that figure to 1 million ... lol)
Josh Massoud reported that Taylor was on the verge of signing a long-term $1m+ a season contract with the Titans.
Read the courier mail article his management have said they havent recieved any offers from titans and are waiting if he wants money hell stay and ruin career and if he wants to be at a Big club and win and besuccessful for premeirship he comes back
Gold Coast Titans preparing three-year deal for Ashley Taylor worth $3 million
THE Gold Coast Titans are formulating a $3 million package to stave off poaching bids for in-demand halfback Ashley Taylor, who has emerged as the NRL’s hottest playmaking talent.
Taylor is certain to become the code’s next million-dollar player after already attracting interest from five NRL rivals, including former club Brisbane, despite being contracted to the Titans until the end of next season.
He joins the Broncos’ Anthony Milford and the Cowboys’ Jason Taumalolo as players set to become million-dollar men, an exclusive club of which the Storm’s Cameron Smith is already a member.
The Courier-Mail can reveal the Titans are preparing a three-year extension for Taylor in the hope of warding off rivals before the Queensland Origin hopeful becomes a free agent for 2019 on November 1 this year.
If Taylor pledges his allegiance to the Titans on a deal averaging $1 million-a-season, he will be tied up at the Gold Coast until at least 2021.
Taylor is one of the bets young halfbacks in the competition.
Taylor, 22, is leading the NRL for try-assists (24) this season, backing up his heroics from last year when he was crowned the Dally M rookie-of-the-year.
With NSW Origin stars Nathan Peats (2020) and Jarryd Hayne (2018) locked up, Titans COO Tony Mestrov said the club had shifted its focus to retaining Taylor.
“He is definitely a priority for the club,” he said.
“We believe he is a player that can transition the side into a top four team.
“He was a shadow for the Queensland side this year and we think he will play State of Origin in the future.
“He is a priority to keep.”
SPORTS CON: Could players sue officials?
MATTY JOHNS: Are the Eels onto something great?
If the Titans want to secure Taylor they will have to get moving.
While NRL rules prevent players from signing with a rival before November 1, Taylor has already generated significant interest from cashed-up clubs desperate to land a quality shot-caller.
The Titans have held initial discussions with Taylor’s new management group, Black Money Enterprises, but are yet to make a submission.
“No formal offers have come through,” Taylor’s manager Warrick Wright said.
“A player like Ash has attracted enormous interest from other clubs but we haven’t gone down that path yet. We are happy to talk to the Titans.
“We will see what happens over the next couple of weeks.”
Can the Titans hold onto the playmaker?
Clouding the Taylor situation is five-eighth Tyrone Roberts’ public pay dispute with the Titans.
Roberts rejected a two-year extension worth $600,000 and claimed the club had “stuffed him around”.
The halves are incredibly close and Taylor revealed in March that Roberts’ future would play a role in his decision.
Kane Elgey was coach Neil Henry’s first-choice No. 6 but Taylor and Roberts piloted the Titans into last year’s finals series and have won three of four games alongside each other this season.
