Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

The Roosters signed Lenui and justified it in the media by declaring he was taking JWH's money/spot. Then once enough time passed and everyone forgot, they re-signed JWH.

When they signed Young (who was being offered 500k by the Knights) they justified the signing by declaring he was taking Sua'alii's money/spot. Now they're saying that Sua'ali'i was on 700k and that is what they are offering Best so it's a straight swap.

The Roosters are full of it and try to play the general public for fools. In recent years they're always desperately trying to justify their signings through the media due to the fact that everyone can clearly see what's going on with their clear advantage in spending. It always the 'we may have signed a 1 million dollar player, but we are letting 3 players on 200k go' or 'this player is replacing this player who is leaving' only for that player to be re-signed at a later date. Next, they'll probably use the excuse that they have let Matt Lodge go and have cap space despite bragging a year ago that they signed him for peanuts because he loved the Roosters culture so much!

True in some cases. They signed him for peanuts because the Warriors were still paying his full wage this year. Next year he isn’t so lucky.
They also planned to keep Lodge on and on a moderate contract as assurance for a retiring JWH. With JWH signed they released Lodge.
They also have Joseph Paulo out the door after 1 season so prehaps that’s whose spot Dom Young is taking. Mind you they apparently promised him a centre spot so if that’s not happening with them chasing Best well good luck to them.
Meanwhile we are cap stacked with long term deals for Naden, Kepoa, To’a.
 
we are meeting with Jayden Sullivan tomorrow and Brodie Croft apparently off the table
Same article mentions we are still in talks with Sezer and have offered a 12 month deal, though there is a push (presumably from his camp) for a second 12 months.

… oh and the dragons are trying to move on from Z.Musgrove…

I would give him the option , Sezer will add plenty direction so the 5/8 can play footy , be it Sullivan or the brothers Fainu
 
Blake Taaffe and Jameon Salmon to the dogs
It's getting even funnier at the Dogs and Gus's lies..
I would be pissed if I was a junior as all he craps on about is we are a family club and will build from within. Yet he just keeps signing external players like there's no tomorrow. Look at Young - He comes this year for 3 years and now told to look elsewhere and players seems to want to keep going there so maybe there is side deals happening.

When are 360 going to call this shit out for what it is.
