Have you heard anything about Kade Dykes?

Feels like Crichton and/or his management were using WT for negotiations to stay at Easts for a higher sum. Well played Sir.
No need to rush back AD from injury. He should be viewed for WT long term plans.
To me Crichton and Staggs should play centre for NSW in SOO.
I would love WT to open the pursue strings and buy Stephen Crichton from Penrith and play him where he wants to play Full Back or Centre. 21 years old and a Superstar in the making.
Once Penrith win back to back titles I am sure some of their players will leave for big bucks elsewhere especially with Captain Chin and a number of high profile players taking up cap space with their big contracts.
I am only dreaming but how good would it be to land Yeo as Captain and Lock. To me that is like when the Sharks landed Luke Lewis and we know how that ended. 2016 premiership. Yeo has to be one of the elite players in the competition and appears a genuine leader as well. Sorry I woke up now Yeo will never leave the Panthers.
Yes, not likely to happen from what I was told.

Anything over $600k is unrealistic given where his form is right now. Plenty second row cattle about and early days to start panic high $s shopping.

Seems that Matt Lodge has purchased a dwelling on the Northern Beaches .. read into that what you like .. Sea Eagles bound .. ??
I find it quite strange and believe something is brewing behind the scenes.
@THE_POM updated us about the Augus C meeting and Lee also said it went well with us going to put an offer through to him for around 2.1m.. Reading into this it makes me think they would of discussed our $$$ and they wouldn't even put an offer together if the money was not right in the first place. Our recruitment team have been very very quite until an announcement takes place and I think this could be the case IF the offer was put forward...
Maybe I'm more wishing but still hold hope..

I would love Angus at the tigers but not for stupid money. When someone reported 2.2 for 3 years (ave 733K per year) that would be absolute max , for mine.
Anything above that would weaken other areas of the top 30 too much.

According to @THE_POM pre-Naden: “Club also trying to fast track a move for Kade Dykes this week, they want him at the club before the bye round. 2023 terms agreed upon”.
So unless Dykes was using us too to get a commitment from his family Club, he’s with us next season.

Our offer is not stand alone. It needs to be considered in comparison to what Papali'i will receive. Papali'i is the form player in the NRL in the second row.
Not getting a contract yet..things could change. Think he stay at Roosters anyway.
I understand that but we picked Papa up very cheap and I'm sure once here and he maintains his high playing standards we would look to extend and increase if needed.
But just because we snagged him cheap doesn't mean we will get more players cheap but the real balance for me is team morale. I think 750k for Angus would be max and other players would not be too concerned but anything over that might hurt some feelings..
Time will tell
