Agree about screwing over the opposition and using what ever competitive advantage you have, but what I find confusing is the references to 10 days, then a mention of 14 days and then there is a mention somewhere about an additional 48 hours is thrown in there somewhere.

Is it 10 days or 10 business days, can anyone clarify these time lines?
There’s definitely a few variations of the rule being floated about.
 
I just had the wildest dream (during the day) that Adam Doeuihi and Jarome Luai were our halves partners for the 2025 season and we made the top 8. Wild at first, but pre-ACL Doeuihi at Souths and first year here was decent
 
The issue is he‘s a so called club legend. Yes, I know he isn’t, never even played for WT’s, but that’s the way the media portray him. So could you imagine Thurston publicly discouraging a player signing with the Cowbys or Cam Smith advising a player not to sign with the Storm. Would not happen. Not just because they are far more superior run clubs with greater on field success, but those guys are actually passionate about their respective clubs. Blocker isn’t.
Club legend, love the Block!
 
Blocker is a blithering old idiot. And his
commentary sucks to - when he's not stating
the obvious, he's getting players' names
wrong. It's no coincidence that when the
media wants a soundbite they go to a big
boofhead like him & Benny. Go ask Jr Pearce
or some1 that would offer a more
balanced opinion - hell, maybe even an ex-
WT player, howbouthat?! Legend in his own
mind. He's like the big fat kid at school that
thinks he has muscles & is tough. Take
your big old ass outside and stfu blocker
What’s wrong with Appy Carousel?
 
Sorry guys it was my fault. What happened was a mate of mine who works for the media sent this to me and I shared it with my mate @Pascoes_barber and then it got put onto here.

What my mate didn’t tell me until 5 minutes ago, was that he wrote the article itself and sent it to me as a joke. I should’ve expected it from him given he’s a Dogs fan but I admit he caught me off guard and I shared it to my mates on here thinking it was legit. You cannot find the article because it’s a fake.

Again I apologise for the confusion and hopefully you guys aren’t too upset by it. Sorry for the mistake and I’ll try to be more careful in the future.
Your mates not a journo’s ah 😂
 
Lol. We can go back and forth! Haha

BUT you are underestimating an agent playing us off to get him the best deal TO get the dogs UP.

They know we’re the most desperate

So they get the lost from us and then see if the dogs can get close

It’s negotiating 101

The fact the he hasn’t signed with us yet or stated he will despite Penrith waiving the 10 day period is weird man

Apparently right now the contract details are being finalized

I mean wouldn’t that all have been done when we submitted our offer ?

You don’t think Richo and our lawyers would be sitting there saying we can make any change needed on the spot to get this done if Penrith has agreed to waive the 19 days

It’s all stalling .

I would HATE to be right. Gutted

But everyone is too confident for me

Haha
This is a maddening exercise in futility. Specifically your above post, I wish you a peaceful and clear mind and feel your burden.
 
Opinion on Blocker as a pundit is fair game.

But he is absolutely a “club legend”.
To deny that is to ignore both clubs history. WT are not a brand new club, we aren’t the Cowboys or Crushers, we are borne from two foundation clubs and that will always be our history.

IMO any Wests/Balmain legend is, by virtue of the merger, a club legend, and that legacy should never be disregarded, least of all by our own fans.

And, may I add, Blocker was arguably the most revered, dynamic prop of his era. So yes, while Webcke and Lazarus are absolutely modern legends, Blocker’s unique style and skill level put him squarely in the conversation with the great modern day props.
Well said.
