This talk of Saab being a dud is absolutely ludicrous. A 19 year old kid, with 6 career games playing in a lackluster side... For sometime now it's been very clear what we need most is a winger with size and speed. Saab fits the bill just as good as any. With some solid coaching Saab will...

JAC - Nothing has changed from the last update as far as i'm aware. Cotric signing could change things for the Dogs but too early to know. His preference is still Souths, however they would have to move some players on. There is also some resistance from coaching personnel and Souths management...

Yeah, it was a story planted by his manager Schifcofske at the time - essentially play him or lose him (which prompted Melbourne to play him from the bench). Other clubs didn't bite because he was under contract and were not allowed to negotiate him unless they had permission from the Storm...

Wrote about the Cotric situation sometime back, he wasn't happy with the club signing Scott as he was promised the centre position sometime back. This move isn't about money as he had a longer term deal from Canberra, it's simply playing position and lifestyle related. He is frequently in...

Turned him down? So far off the mark on this one... Papenhuyzen had lucrative offers on the table from 7 or 8 clubs including a huge offer from Rugby Australia at the time. All before playing a single game of NRL. 2014 Harold Matthews player of the year. Papenhuyzen was always earmarked as...

No truth at all to the Brooks/Grant rumour. People are over complicating this situation when it is very simple. There is no need for a trade from either side, it will be completely up to Grant should Smith stay on. In other news, Canberra looking to acquire Granville to cover Hodgson and the...

Sorry to keep smashing you, but i am really struggling to understand your logic here. You're saying that Nofoaluma needs to be replaced because he is average defensively (been much better this year) and because there are better wingers out there. Yet you've been pushing for the Tigers to...

Few clubs interested in TPJ, particularly the Dogs. Looks like he may be the collateral damage along with Ofahengaue if Fifita re-signs. Brisbane were trying to offload Oates and Milford but both have player options and dont want to leave Brisbane given they wont get higher offers than what...

Having been in around the system for a while, out of all the young outside backs i can only really see Rizk and Kei being long term NRL talents. No doubt Cini and Scolari could play NRL at some stage but don't see them as top level talents. Cini has a better shot than Scolari. Scolari is...

Nothing we have not already heard. Doubtful CHN will get clearance this year but he will be back 2021. Very likely he will be here. The JAC situation is very interesting and could really go to Souths, Dogs or Tigers. Reality around JAC is that Souths are his preferred destination but would...

There is a reason he does not have a deal moving forward - he cannot defend. Not sure where you got your info from but never heard his name came up from inside the club.

What is your obsession with Eaun Aitken? You talk about him insensately! He's not even good enough to get picked in the dragons team let alone ours. Even Lafai gets picked over him (when fit)!

Personally have not heard that Fifita is definitely going to the Titans. Last i heard he was waiting and giving the Broncos time to clear some space. IF Fifita does end up at the Titans, you have to give credit where credit is due. This is a team who have won multiple spoons in the past few...

On Saab, looking like he will be at the dogs IF released but it is really up in the air. Major cash being thrown at a some players by them. On another note, most Sydney clubs have been in discussions to resume playing informal (non-Canterbury Cup) reserve grade games against one another to...

This is spot on and the point i was trying to make. Momirovski is a first grader, there is no denying that. Definitely a quality back up or depth player and will do the job if required. However, he is not a centre in a premiership winning team (unless the rest of the backline is littered with...

People need to realise that there is a reason Momirovski can't get a look in at Melbourne, couldn't get a look in at the Roosters and why Madge didn't mind using him as collateral for a season.... I'll give you a hint - he's not as good as people on here make him out to be. Yeah ok he scored a...

Have not heard much apart from some younger rep players. There has been interest in Saab, given he wants to be in Western Sydney and did play some of his junior football within the Balmain District. Looks like dogs have the upper hand on that one though. Dragons still defiant on releasing such...

There is no rush to look for a half for next year at this point. The club is better off playing the waiting game... We've all seen how many players break contracts after the season is done. This offseason will be even worse given that the cap will not be increasing (CoVID19) as clubs initially...

No he didn't, his contract was a TOTAL of 800k over 3 seasons with a player option in the 4th worth 400k.

Cotric played all his junior football in the centres. On signing his original contract at Canberra, and over the years the message was that he was to spend the first couple years on the wing and would move into the centres once BJ moved on. The Curtis Scott signing has stopped that, hence the...
