Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

None at all, he was "wined and dined by Trent Robinson" . Other clubs never stood a chance!

It's all in the dinner and the ambience. It works everytime.

It's been proven time and again clubs
have to pay overs while they pay unders.
If you think everything is all above board
and kosher at the chooks then there
is nothing to discuss with you here bro

I know we all have “sources” but just thought I’d share.

'We thought we had him'

Knights are the new tigers and they only have themselves to blame.

Interesting info, Alex mckinnon unearthed the pommy fella in some obscure comp in England.

And what is stopping us having Harry T building a few houses at cost price .....if you can't beat them ...join em .....

Exactly.
Don’t sit here whinging and being jealous AF…
Get better.

Moses got engaged last Tuesday, the rock looks very expensive. Seems an uncanny timing for the proposal and by the looks of the ring he knows he has extra money to spend coming from somewhere. I am feeling extra confident that he will be here.

He will probably be able to afford whatever ring he wants even if he doesn't get another contract haha

yep those two times Brooks kicked it dead is what really held us back last year.

More than two. He gets it wrong quite alot. Trying to put pressure with repeat sets might not seem like much but when your a crap team it's something that needs to be done.

That's just crazy talk....
Every comp needs Villains....The roosters are just the rich pompous frat Alpha Beta boys who need to be taken down a few pegs....
Tigers are the Lambda Lambda Lambda's of the comp.... loveable and plucky
The older people on the forum would know about the Tri-Lambs....

Must be Pascoe on the right....poor old Booger

 

[balmain boy]

I looked at our top 30 and there’s a few young props there but James isn’t.

Does anyone know if they’re better than him or why he played in trials and they didn’t?

He seems awesome - just curious if peops have seen the other dudes or know why he played and they didn’t

Cheers

Fainu was the hottest young prop in the country a couple of years ago. Was a monster for Freddie's junior Blues in u20s origin. Injury has slowed his progression.
James is a bit of a James Gavet type. Runs hard but suspect defence, hands and fitness. He's still got a lot to improve on but he's currently no better or worse than Fainu.

500k for Dom Young??

Y'All know we have a 500k Winger yeh?
And we're not the Roosters...

It helps to be best mates with the heirarchy

Whether it's 1.1 or 1.4, you'd imagine the ring would be top notch.

Good to see Musgrove right into team harmony at the Drags, boy did we finally make a good move on this bloke, wasnt good at Souths , stupid buy by us and now Saints problem

 

[PabloX]

With Young going to the roosters, it must mean they can't get RTS as well

 

[ovoevo]

Dom Young's got promise, I don't know that he's consistent enough. There are probably at least 10 better wingers in the comp.

I sort of think the same about their recruitment of Brandon Smith. Verrills was a pretty good hooker, and Smith's huge intensity play usually results in stints on the sidelines and he's a bit up and down.

I think Young has got a lot more than promise. I certainly don't think there are ten better wingers than him. And if he's making huge yardage and scoring long-distance tries for fun at the Knights he'll run riot once he's integrated into the Roosters' system. A lot of people don't realise just how big and mobile he is. It's hard enough stopping him now so heaven knows how much of a handful he'll be once he reaches full physical maturity. Scary proposition.

I think what stinks about the Chooks is, they let these clubs on struggle street pour bucket loads of cash trying to develope talent by bringing kids up through the grades and when a good one emerges, they just come along and pluck him from under their nose.

Dont know what the answer is and certainly don’t want to open up the salary cap debate, but it is not good for the game…but does Peter V care, no he could not give a dam

That's why winning games is critical to ongoing success l.

Roosters Melb pay unders

Candle light dinner for RTS with Robbo should work.

Melbourne does on occasions. Roosters never pay unders
