Bateman was on 700k with us...does that mean the Cowboys are paying more?

You just want this to be the narrative. You have no idea what the details of the deal are.

One is publicly toxic and the club is trying to move on from him … the other has three teams competing for him

Are we not paying a fair chunk of his contract cause sookie Benji don't want him anymore.
Don't worry he is still getting 700 half from us.

Yes true but hopefully you get what I am trying to say.
Royce Hunt has been a fail, Jack Bird disappointing.
The season started well till the Galvin saga followed by Tallyn but still an improvement.
AD has an offer but still hasn't accepted and with his new manager I doubt he will. Then 2026 i have the feeling we will go through it all again with Bula.

I would hope we have learned our lesson.
If a player wants to go then don’t muck around, get rid quick.

Maybe because the Broncos made the offer so good? We've released players before with a chip in from us and the player decides were they go even when 2 clubs are interested.

The offers could all be the same and he chose us? Maybe the Broncos paid him out and he signed for less than 350? You have no idea and neither does anyone. The deal could be done a million different ways.

By the way. Who are these 3 clubs? You mean Hull FC in the Super League? The league where their entire salary cap is 2.1 million pounds? They were looking for a cheap half, not getting into a bidding war. I don't know the 3rd club you are referring to.
 
The Jahream Bula situation is setting some alarm bells in my head if I’m being completely honest.

He’s an excellent player and I really want to keep him, and maybe this is a selfish perspective from me but to see the damage that Issac Moses has done to this club and align yourself with him does worry me. Plus all the BS that is following like him attending other games with his manager, why not go with friends or family? It’s a little fishy to me, especially given who his manager is.

I’m hearing that Jayden Campbell is being shopped around and is a free agent come November 1st.

If Moses/Bula start to try manipulate the situation and try rewinding the clock. I would be lining up Jayden Campbell as a fullback as I believe that’s his best position and telling them both to kick rocks.

I know. That's my point. Clubs pay their players to play elsewhere. Tom was making the point we are taking on Maddens full salary or "maybe more" because there were 3 clubs interested.

at $350k at least for a guy that played here for a couple of years and was pretty ordinary…

That’s my opinion …your entitled to have a different one

$350k is actually your opinion.

Nowhere, anywhere, is it reported he is signed to the Tigers for $350k a season.

Just like Bud Sullivan isn't on $750k as some might have people believe.

Thankfully, the Tigers have the option to extend Bula on 900k. Moses cannot stop that.

Why would he sign here for less when he was contracted next year at that amount and has three teams competing for him ?

Who said that about Bud ? I corrected that guy you might find

I'm not turning against Bula just yet he is a talent and there is the Fijian connection I would think he sees a future here
