A problem with "no young player in the NRL, until they prove themselves in the NSW cop" is that it nearly guarantee that most of them will go elsewhere! 😢 And we would certainly lost Bula and Pole!

Both Bula and Pole played in NSW cup before NRL.

Pole played 13 games in Cup before his debut

Did I read the Blues were looking at Pole for Origin....
He was in Vic at 13 I'd have thought...

Wonder how that rule gets bent?

My guess is NSW have an QLD informant on how to break rules

 

[Tiger Stripes]

Considering some of his salary was probably factored into Luai’s money, I’d say we already have.

Some of his salary?
Probably factored into Luai's?
Where does this crap come from?

Our salary cap.

1.2 or some on Luai
500k On Sullivan
??? on Fainu (250k at least you'd reckon)
Galvin Under contract - On at least 150k
- Doesn't leave much to spend on halves...

Doueihi is moving his ideals or moving on...

Would be a good pick up for the Dragons.

Reality.

We signed a 1.2M player and a 425k player. We lost Brooks who was about 1m approx.
I bet we are counting on not resigning AD and factoring AD not being on the books as a part of Luai's package.

It's just how NRL is. Smart move, but the way things work.

Benji, Reg Gasnier etc say hello.

Good player, hope he stays

 

[BAGNF05]

Good player, hope he stays

He’s in the same class as Josh Reynolds, Matt Ballin and Shawn Blore. Rehab specialists.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Good player, hope he stays

And keep running up the rehab bill?

He won't be a half again. Unless someone like St George take a punt.

Too risky having a spine player with that injury history.

Centre is where its at.

 

[Buttface]

I think you’re confused?
He was talking about Adam Douhie, the self proclaimed reserve grade 5/8 that can’t defend or stay on the on the field.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

Doueihi can go to Bulldogs I hear they already have plenty of utilities he would fit right in

he can't tackle for centre....
St Merge should take a punt on him as a backup 6

Who they saying hello to?
the thousands and thousand of players since Gasnier to play NRL via reserve grade

Two players in 50 odd years 🤟 🤟

Easy to forget he was our best player, by far, in 2021

 

[Leck]

Adam needs to go asap. Over the four years with us he’s played less than 50% of the games. His stats and attitude are poor, and god only knows how he got an extension last year.
