Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Sounds a bit sexist, champ! What’s wrong with being a female?? Stop dragging your knuckles…
Is it ok if I disengage from this now? This seems to have thrown you off centre...exclamations, double question marks...even your writing is hyper emotional. I don't want to poke people that are this fragile.
 
Doubt it, once Keon went for $1m & Haas got over that. May arguably top 5 in the comp. He gets the $1m.

I have no issues, Twal, KPP, Sione all good value. Pole wouldn't break the bank. Seyfarth surely a cheapie. Hunt apparently on slight overs but doing a job.

Sam Fainu is the one we need to keep & also maybe pay a premium rate. $800k?
Whatever ended up paying May we'll need to add an extra 100-200k for Fainu
 
Remember when Shaun took over as interim CEO he said he would engage with members and supporters...Well this is how he treats a family who have been members for 12+ years!.. I emailed him a few weeks back(no reply and again yestreday) ..and got this reply today:...lol

I'm guessing you didn't email him, but rather his assistant. And depending on the tone and topic of the email it may have been disregarded if it were improper.

I can't speak for the treatment of others but I've emailed and spoken with him a couple of times and he's polite and responsible. Gave me his number to call or message anytime, not that I'd exploit that.

He'd certainly be a very busy man at the moment too.
 
He was hopeless at retention.
Hopeless.
Lol.
It doesn’t matter if I wanted to keep them.
He tried to keep or re-sign players and wasn’t able to do so.
That was my only point on this issue, despite idiots continually changing the subject.
lol. This dude has no idea.

Name some players he was hopeless at retention? Besides galvin and Stefano?
Anyone he lost that we wanted to keep?

And as I said in my last post I gave you like 10 names. You’ve given nothing lol

I obviously don’t need to.
The more you reply, the more you prove my point.
Maybe one day you will wake up?

Stefano is the biggest myth I’ve seen in the nrl since Tony Williams . He is a big reason their middle is leaking like a sieve , and only has explosive runs when he’s running at the smallest guy on the field. How he’s still being mentioned for origin and T may and twally are considered “Smokey’s” is just bullshit . He’s absolutely shit . And he was when he played for us . Used to piss me right off all the time .

Big for nothing, that guy.
Never fires up.
 
if we got TDM for 1 million and they.paid 800k for Thompson we have got TDM for a steal
I am pretty sure we got KPP (kai Pearce-Paul) for 600k.

Which has really surprised me. He did almost nothing at the knights but seemed to be outperforming Thompson...

Moreso, look at our pack!

We don't have a Payne Haas, or Taumalolo/player carrying all the work. That was last year with Terrell May who somehow carried our team with Pole injured!

Now, we have a very balanced forward pack.

Terrell May, Api, Pole Very strong Props with a good hooker moving the ball.

Twal who has just owned Lock and is really being an energizer bunny there. I honestly did not expect that move to work.

Followed by Samulea Fainu who is a great ball runner and Kai Pearce-Paul who runs hard with a nice offload. Plus a nice bench of Sione, Hunt Seyfarth...


To use the Epic words like phil Ghould!
