Is why I am sceptical of a lot of info until it's official, with the sayings where there is smoke there is fire or gaining momentum the problem is it only needs 1 (in this case a joke, but could be a troll or just a 10 year old with too much time on their hands) to post something false and...
Gould playing games, neither of them are built like athletes, the one on the right is already wearing bulldogs gear, possibly Ciraldo, the one on the left is certainly no player, actually looks a bit older.
I believe if an offer has been accepted and the NRL informed of said acceptance only Penrith can counter the offer, not other clubs, otherwise the whole idea would be a waste of time.
And don't believe for a moment that Uncle Nick didn't already know about this and negotiations with the player were not already going on well before the NRL announced it, hey he probably came up with the idea. It's handy having the NRL in your pocket.
Those figures are much better, but as it stands from reports Storm don't appear to want to pay any freight so I can't see them paying $350k, I would rather pay Nof $1m over the next 2 years and let the Storm pay Olam his $1.8m for the next 3 years.
You pay an rising young star a bit extra over...
Then you are effectively paying $650,000 for a player of the same age, in similar form and for an extra year, 3 years as opposed to 2 years.
Don't see any advantage in this scenario, better keeping Noffa and save $150,000 a year and have him off the books a year sooner than Olam would be.
Yes, something you see most years in flegg, teams improve dramatically when the young players come up while others hit a brick wall, Newcastle are another example, 7th at Round 16 now running last.
Not that simple, contracts need to be lodged with NRL before an official announcement, even more so if a player is still under contract for the following season, current club needs to give an official release before new contract can be lodged.
The media reporting it doesn't mean it's been...
Was that the actual score, just asking as the NSWRL site have credited Frawley with scoring 2 tries, both in the 63rd minute and the NSWRL site have a habit of making errors.
