Isn't he on 600? Or is it 650k?
I'm just saying that he hasn't justified an increase in his salary apart from the increase in the cap. 900k is laughable.

Yep. None of his business. Keep your house clean and let others worry about theirs.

Nah, can't cop that. Agree with free trade but not when it involves flouting a system that is meant to create equal opportunity in the talent pool and an even NRL competition. The only way your argument stands up is if it is endorsements you are talking about, ie a player promotes a brand of footy attire. What does arm's length mean? If a business entity, who has an affection or affiliation with a particular club, but is not actually involved in the administration, offers gifts or other financial incentives in order to entice them to sign on, is that arm's length? I don't think so.

He's a eaglevale kid ? Also the lock that played in the QLD and is 18 is there anything stopping him from playing first grade after round 13?

Absolutely. He's been told to shut up by the Tigers and now he wants to comment on other teams' business. Mind you, if the Broncos release him and he falls into our laps I might have to applaud him.😆

I don't see Benji I can see the Inglis but his step is RTS and body shape
He shouldn't be in his position. Too much ego
Large played for Campbelltown City.
My younger family played against him (and his younger brother) for years, and he was always spoken about, so I’ve seen a heap of his games.
And yeah, there’s nothing stopping Faagutu playing first grade after Round 10.
He’s 18 now, turns 19 this year.
As if the Tigers need adverse publicity.

Ok maybe you can contribute financially to the club like he does and replace him?

Was 3rd or so in Australia for his age in 100m sprint only a few years ago.

Faagutu have you seen much of him ? I saw some of his school boys highlights and QLD cup highlights he looks the goods
And it's round 10 not 13 ? I think he will play first grade this year and the Tiger's mite have to release Twal or Joffa at the end of year to keep the younger talent

Mate what did I say about Lee the other day any chance he gets going off like a $2 hookerLooks like Lee is trying to make the situation worse over there… maybe to make a play for cobbo?
Footy star Selwyn Cobbo 'could've breached contract' with coach insult
Tigers supremo Lee Hagipantelis - who is the principal of a law firm - thinks the Broncos have 'major concerns' after Cobbo astonished the club and coach Walters with his comments.www.dailymail.co.uk

This is one of the kids I'm most looking forward to see play. I can't wait.
I haven't seen him play in person but his highlights look great.
Yep, after Round 10, he's definitely a big chance of playing first grade after that.

Is that state level over 50/70m or for further? Fast 100/200m times doesn't necessarily mean they're fast in footy terms. Doeuihi is quick over 100m but he takes a while to hit top speed so he appears slow.
Why can't he financially contribute from the sidelines via sponsorship. He doesn't need to be directly involved with the club.
Do you here Politis going on about recruitment or anything? I just want the top heirachy to be professional and keep their cards close to their chest.
With him it sounds like he just enjoys talking more than anything else.
