7th Tackle: Titans keen on re-Peats

Gold Coast has upped the ante to keep hooker Nathan Peats, submitting a revised three-year deal this week.

Peats had previously rejected the club’s original offer, which was only for two seasons.

In the meantime Parramatta entered the equation and is expected to submit a counter-offer in the next few days.

The 26-year-old harbours no ill-will against his old club, which jettisoned him midway through last year in order to become salary cap compliant.

Also in Parramatta’s favour is the fact his partner is expecting her second child, and would appreciate help from Sydney-based family.

The Eels have also spoken about making a bid Bulldogs rake Michael Lichaa.
