Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I posted on here maybe a fortnight ago that the Eels have enquired about Nofa - seems like they ended up getting another outside back instead.

Maybe the $ scared them off..... why wouldn't it

Hopefully Storm will take him back

SEN reporting this morning that Charlie Staines will be off to Parramatta next week. Via Vossy and Carryianis (?).

Let me guess,Parra have stated they will buy a 10 hats from us for compensation

How much is Steph on?
He can’t be pleased that we are bringing in a greenhorn prop on 500, considering he played origin this year.

I don’t think the greenhorn will be on 500 more like little brother on 650 and him on 350 , but it’s all about getting them in the door and hopefully others follow

Weirdly, I find myself frustrated for Lee Hepatitis in this issue with Lawrence.

Lawrence essentially provoked him by sending a text looking for a response, and he didn't like what he got and has run to the media. Did he expect Lee to say he was enjoying it?

I am the first to throw shade on Lee, but this just kind of irked me.

Our d1ckhead of a chairman who can’t keep his mouth shut has forced out club legend Chris Lawrence because he said something to him after we got thrashed by the Cowboys.

I can’t emphasise how much of a stain & cancer this eff wit is on our club & everytime I see him spew more pointless dribble my blood boils. We’re stuck with this loser & his little man syndrome for a while because he wipes the boards ass with his lawyer dollars. Can’t wait till this flop effs off

All hearsay - whoever posted that rant on social media couldn't even get the facts right - said Lawrence msg Hagi after cows thrashed us 66-18. You would think if you are going to post crap on social media you would at least try and get the facts right.

Is the story as accurate as that score?
What's the source?

anonymous rant on Facebook - has to be true.

We won by 48 points.

great the fainus signed on
i was initially told that bulldogs werent interested, they absolutely offered the boys a contract

in fact my source (a player agent) shared that the dolphins / canberra / dogs all out bid the tigers

fulton was a big reason for them coming as well as feledy

And the DT naturally report that we were the only ones left - even made a point of saying dogs didn't put in an offer as if to say they would have definitely gone their if an offer was made.

Hooper is a tigers supporter his “personal vendetta” is no different to 99% of people on this forum. People in glass houses

You'll have to point out the 99% of people on this forum who are morons and have a media platform to disseminate their moronity.

The man has an IQ of a hot dog and all that ever comes out of his stupid mouth is minced animal bits.

So no thanks to Hot Dog.

If we're shopping nof. to other clubs why would we be letting Staines go?
I really hope it's wrong, we barely have enough backs to finish the season without letting the best winger we have at the moment go.

I reckon bcoz nobody wants Nofa at any price and they can offer Staines a new contract now.
We probably need the space and hopefully we have a couple of young speedy winger types to take over on cheaper coin and can stay on the park. Two of them had major injuries at the start of the year.

A lot of the good juniors coming through (Da Silva etc.) are managed by Mario Tartak who also manages the Fainu brothers.

As long as we're not following the Manly model of setting ourselves up to be a slave to a player manager

Not saying it isn't going to happen but it seems a weird signing by them when they desperately need a No 9.

If you read some of the earlier comments that figure was debunked.

Yeah if we can find success and build comraderie amongst the squad, we can start rorting the cap like the other clubs and let guys take unders to stay togeather.

They referenced the wrong game in the article, the text was sent while we were getting pumped up in North Queensland apparently

True. I forgot about Jimmy Nutlicker.
