The question now is do we keep him in NRL and develop him more for the Storm or put him back in Intrust ?
Addo Carr signs with Storm...
- Thread starter vlad
- Start date
The numbers ive heard are around the 300k mark on the forum
way overs for a player who could, at best, be a great winger for us. other clubs have more upside because he could end up at fullback there where youd easily pay 500-600k+ if he ends up a great player
we need to invest money in our pack hopefully another second rower like frizell, ryan james etc and a good proven centre to rapdily improve edge defence

Honestly, if i was a player and i was offered a chance to develop under Bellamy and a chance at living in Melbourne i would probably go too.

That $300k was for 2 years, $120k next year and $180k in 2017, hardly overs.

He needs to stay in the NRL until we have a better winger than him. The club needs to win games to move away from the laughing stock tag we carry. He can win us games more than any other outside back we have.
Unless we promote MCK and move Simona to wing, which is possible, but given Naiqama really needs to be dropped i think JAC needs to stay for now.

ahh my bad
yeah probably should have retained him in that case, swap out naiqama and rankin. even so, our pack is a bigger concern in my opinion. its been at least 2 years if not 5 years since we've had a good pack.
people complain about our halves, but their game has always flowed as our pack has moved forward. its not coincidence they played well against the broncos when we kept up with them and they play crap when we got rolllled by the chooks.

I've read Pascoe's statement and I didn't get the feeling that it "shows that they know they've done the wrong thing and possibly made a mistake." To me it just reads that they wanted to keep JAC but weren't prepared to pay overs for him. I applaud them for this.

No, I'm reading a direct statement from our CEO which indidcates that the club is not prepared to pay overs and good on them. Where did you hear that JAC wanted to sign for "a lot less and was told to look elsewhere". What is your source?

What if he has a bonus clause in his contract for playing more than X NRL games. Will not help our cap mess. I think he would have signed with Melbourne when they were trying to get us to release him.

Well if he has a clause, we play him until he is about to activate it.
If we weren't going to play him for the rest of the season, why not let him go now and promote someone else to the top squad?

They probably don't have a clue who to bring up
That's most likely why he played yesterday,
I haven't heard about any young blokes who are hammering the door down to first grade
It will probably Be our normal non winger, Rankin.
I've got a better idea, put Moses on the wing and move rankin to no 6\. At least one less target in the halves
