Seggy apparently extending with us.
Can anyone post the CM article?

Hopefully now Turpin also extends.

There is also an article on the CM about Alex Glenn considering a move to the Titans next year.

Really happy we're keeping Seggy around. I'll be upset if Glenn leaves for sure but if it's an indication we're keeping Fifita around longer term, I don't mind it I guess.

That article about Glenn is he would consider the move if he can't come to terms with us ... Or if the Titans offered him a deal too good to refuse

He also say his first preference is to stay here

Penrith and NSW five-eighth James Maloney is ready to quit the NRL after this season and sign a rich three-year deal with French Super League club, Catalans Dragons.
Well-placed sources in France have told The Daily Telegraph a deal has been struck and could be announced as early as today.
Maloney, 33, is under contract at Penrith until the end of next season but has repeatedly spoken about his desire to finish his career in Super League.
His NRL career is now just about over.
Catalans sources claim the deal is financially healthy and would rival, if not outdo, his Panthers contract.
Maloney has enjoyed a stellar NRL career with stints at the New Zealand Warriors, Melbourne Storm, Sydney Roosters, Cronulla Sharks and now the Panthers.
He also played 14 games for NSW, the most recent a successful game-three decider in Sydney earlier this month.
The Daily Telegraph has been told English giants Leeds Rhinos had also expressed an interest in Maloney, who is preparing for Sunday’s big match against Canberra at Panthers Stadium.
Maloney claimed just last weekend he would “silly” not consider a new long-term deal overseas.
“Well they reckon the lifestyle’s outstanding over there (France),” Maloney told Triple M.
“It’s always been the goal to finish up with a stint over there (Super League) and we’ve always sort of thought, in terms of lifestyle, the south of France would be a little better than the north of England.
“Whether it happens immediately for next year or whether we’re looking at when the Penrith deal expires, it’s definitely on the radar.”
Just recently, Catalans coach Steve McNamara hinted his club was poised to make a major singing.
“I said last week that we wouldn’t be making wholesale signings but we will be making one or two significant signings — certainly one,” McNamara said.
“We will see what the next few weeks brings.
“I’m a big fan of Jimmy, I coached him at the Roosters. He is a great character and a great player. He is a champion player and I know him well.”
Maloney won two premierships — the 2013 title while a Sydney Rooster and the 2016 grand final with Cronulla.
Penrith players will conduct media interviews on Wednesday where they are expected to reveal a desire to send Maloney out a winner this year.
Cheeky reports emerged over the past 48 hours that Maloney may head to Brisbane Broncos.
“Look, there’s no doubt he’s a big game winner but I think there’s a thing called the salary cap and there’s only certain clubs who could probably afford to buy James Maloney, Broncos isn’t one of those,” Broncos director Darren Lockyer told Nine.

Absolutely staggering that a half with a resume like Maloney comes onto the market and we aren't even in the fucking rumor mill about him.

He wants to go to France. Even with that there has been rumours and suggestion about him and the Broncos for the last 2 weeks, so much so that Lockyer addressed it and said we can’t afford him.
 
Is Glenn looking for a bit of an increase because that article sounds like a guy looking for bit of coin in the backend of his career. The Broncos should keep him but not at the expense of our young crew. Hopefully the Broncos treat him with respect but not too much.

Completely agree. Whilst Glenn has been fantastic this year and pretty good the last few years, there was a 5 or 6 year period where he was incredibly dissapointing. Even though his form this year is what matters I hope the club realise that we have been just as loyal to him as he has to us.
Still believe we should do what we can to keep him, just not pay overs and lose any of our young brigade for him..
 
It would depend on how much the Dogs chipped in. Foran for Macca + 100/200k would be good but I doubt the Dogs would go for it.

At the cost of Fifita? I understand what you're saying wolfie but it all depends on our situation. But there is no way we should loose Fifita for Glenn, even if he does deserve it.

Fifita is signed for at least another year anyway. Glenn has brought more to the club this year than Gillett has, and at about half the cost.

I think Glenn will stay for a similar contract he is on. Something is wrong here if we can't secure Fifita as well. We have moved enough blokes on surely.
 
You also have to think about the broader context. If you give a solid clubman and hard worker like Glenn the arse because you won't give him a moderate amount for his probably final contract, what does that say to the younger guys? "Grab what you can while you can, cos we sure as **** aren't gunna take care of you later."
