JAC

[gallagher]

JAC is the greatest winger in my life time

How old are you ....16?

I'm 49 Russ and I could pick plenty as an equal but none better.

I've seen plenty of wingers better imo. Not prepared to debate this as it is my opinion.

Then people start getting into era's and how the game has changed etc.

Debate on this is a non event.

Wasnt looking for one Russ. Nor an argument, esp after a great win.

JAC watch: Day 83

On this day being 12th of November 2020 a meeting shall be had.

Not sure what people are expecting from this meeting. It’s not as if he’s going to sign a contract , but at the same time the club isn’t going to announce anything about this HOA crap either. What will result is people will resent the club for not being transparent, all the while not really being 100% certain a meeting even took place.

Haha yup, expect nothing today.

I think you can expect to hear if JAC/ manager wants our of the HOA. They will certainly leak that to the media even if the club doesn't.

 

[tony soprano]

Not confident

 

[pawsandclaws1]

As. I wrote last night, for a player supposedly undecided about his playing future, he sure delivered. He is far better than what we have in our NRL team at present in the outside backs, but I have high hopes for Kepaoa.

You know this how?

Still, it will just be media speculation. The club isn’t going to confirm it.

I thought Cleary’s early kicking and Foxx’s chasing kept the Maroons on the back foot. Brooksy I know you were watching . Now who have we got in the team who can hit 37kph ? Nofa? Kepoa? One of the forwards maybe? Lol

Why have a meeting at all then if nothing is going to come of it?

JAC could argue that the HOA was a restraint of trade. Contracts mean nothing in the NRL....thanks $BW ?‍♂️

Restraint of trade?? He has only just signed it.
Are you thinking someone has offered him a better deal, not sure you can break it for that reason, once you've signed and the club who/if they have tried to coerce him to break it would have an issue.
We still don't know what is happening yet anyway, as we are all still in the dark.

You're right we don't know what's happening. Did his manager advise on signing the HOA or did he get legal advice?
Players on big contracts know they have the power to dictate terms on whether they stay or go so if JAC genuinely wants to go to say Souths then it wouldn't make good business sense to enforce the HOA. Why would you want an unhappy player at the club who thinks they've been bent over. Moses is a prime example of a player who didn't want to be here

Well I hope we play hard ball if we are in the right

I'm hearing that a swap with Nofo is still a possibility but he's not convinced he wants to leave his junior club and fans. The club are desperate to get JAC so let's hope they pull the right rein on this one

A big statement but obviously depends on your age. Don't worry about the neg votes - some people on here would bag their grandmothers.

Really? To the point they'd ask Nofo to swap? Wow.

Where did you hear that?

I'm guessing one of your hopes is that AJ removes the butter from his fingers 😂

I hate leaks.

Teaching someone to catch is simple.

If JAC can make it at fullback, he is worth every penny of $800k. Its a risk though.
