Stefano Utoikamanu #241

[BlackWhiteGold]

If he does sign with Melbourne there is no doubt whatsoever he will be their starting prop for every game he is available to play.
I would say it’s a fair chance they would have asked him why his form has dipped over the last month.

Weidler not confident Stef will ultimately want to leave Sydney on 100% Footy tonight due to closeness with family. Said he would not be surprised if another Sydney club is in or comes into the frame.

The Dogs…..

The Dogs…..

In that case he can dog it over there 3 weekends out of 4 rather than here.

He’ll replace Kamakamika long term though I’m not sure if it will be initially.

So they aren’t going to pay him $800k and play him for Sunshine Coast?

Danny Weidler is saying he doesn’t want to leave Sydney now …and the Tigers have no interest in big Nelson

Steph is a beast we will miss him stop making out like we won’t

 

[Bellend]

will be interesting this week will he be a Dog, panther, tiger??

 

[hank37w]

Can’t argue, still performs ok when he gets a run. Fingers crossed he can overcome the injury.

Anyone actually know what the deal is with Olam.

If he is on $600k then a dumb deal and we have been screwed big time, but if he is on $400k then I can probably live with that for a while in the hope that he comes good at some stage.

 

[hank37w]

So Steph met with the Storm when they played us a couple of weeks ago and again yesterday, I'd say its all over, he will head off to the Storm.

C'ya.

his final payment details at the Tigers weren’t released publicly from what I saw .. so we don’t know what the Storm are chipping in..he was on $700k at the Storm supposedly .. so let’s hope they are paying some freight all the remaining years left on the deal …

Weidler's a wanker, but I hope he is right about us not being interested in Big Nelson unless he comes real cheap, which of course wouldn't be the case.

WOW, just WOW.

If we are paying anything approaching $700k at any stage of his contract, then we are dumb as dog shit. 😡

 

[bptiger 0]

If he goes , then we try to get a couple of forwards from the sharks and the dogs , they have more than they can use , a lot of there forwards will have to play NSW cup , offer them a 1st grade spot and a fee of around $500,000 .
Curran
Hunt
Williams
And the dogs have heaps , as they have signed 3 more forwards

 

[hammertime]

I reckon the dogs are lurking in the background for stef

If he didn’t want to leave Sydney why meet Melbourne twice , Storm will offer him 3 years $ 550/600 k per season , Tigers 5 years $ 800 k , throw in dogs 3 years $;650 that’s where I reckon it’s at
Finns , Drags , Raiders all dropped off just like his season

We're paying Klemmer 800 we are actually dumber than dogshit if that's possible

 

[Robbie's Love Child]

Bateman usually bails out before his contract ends and i hope it happens again,unfortunately Klemmer will probably stick till the bitter end.Both were paid too much for too long

He is one of a thousand soft poms who have played in the NRL, bar Burgess, Morley etc no club with any brain cell should sign a pommie player. For every one good Pommie there are hundreds of talented Kiwis, Aussies, Samoans, Tongans.

Our couple of duds (Bateman and Gildart) are more than cancelled out by Sir Gareth. Poms are hardly our biggest problem.

 

[mtd#2]

it looks like he will resign with the tigers.
no source to quote.
just based on the state of play and the clubs he's met.
if he's giving the tigers a decision by Wednesday, the tigers are obviously that decision.
above someone mentioned the dogs, but they haven't been in discussions, so it would be incredibly strange for him to be leaving to go to a club he hasn't spoken to yet.
