JAC

[Deleted member 3518]

Maybe JAC is willing to go back to the Storm next year in order to get a gig at Souths or the Chooks in 2022. Could be the thing he signed with us tied him to us if he got a release for 2021 but is not binding beyond 2021. Just a possibility with him now saying he is ok with having another year down South.

Although in saying the above I think the Storm will release him, where he ends up is anyone’s guess

I don’t think it’s that he WANTS to stay at Melbourne.... more the realisation that if Melbourne don’t get their deal he won’t have a choice. If he was given a choice he would choose to come back to Sydney for next season he’s made that pretty clear

I really doubt this. He has made it pretty clear he is leaving. I reckon he wouldn't be very happy after already staying an extra year.

We’ll have to wait and see. His manager could be pushing that line to try force a deal out of us or bulldogs. Like I said if he had the choice he would leave Melbourne.

Yea it could be , the manager is just using the obvious threat of Souths to suck more money out of us . It might be Souths have bigger priorities .which should be thier forwards to be honest .

Can the mods create a grumpy old men discussion thread and move the above posts there so this thread can be a JAC discussion?

Good idea - and we can complain about anything and everything from football to politics to aching bones when the weather changes. We can reminisce how much better every single thing was back in our day. We can throw in the odd swear word without punishment ( because thats what old blokes do ). And no wokes allowed.

Who's telling porkys - JAC when asked if he signed a HOA, said NO.

If you listen to Lee then technically JAC was telling the truth. He didn’t sign a Heads of Agreement, he signed a Memorandum of Understanding 😊

And for a lawyer (and a player agent) there's a huge difference ..... :blush:

JAC isn't that smart.

He didn’t sign a Heads of Agreement,

JAC & Heads of Agreement in the same sentence made me laugh. I almost went out and bought a flannelette shirt and a slug gun!

Pretty strong words.

It’s time for JAC to stop playing mr nice guy to storm if he wants to leave.

 

[diedpretty]

So according to Hooper JAC won't be leaving Melbourne - the fool ( formerly known as the fox ) and his dumb manager have been shown up as a couple of liars - want to leave Melbourne to be near my family - yea right. Want to play fullback - yea right. All this clown wants is to play with souffs and was using us to push his price up. He and his manager were to dumb to realise that the piece of paper they signed tied him to WT for 4 years if he was released from Melbourne. Shrewd work by WT - JAC never wanted to come here but at least for 2021 he isn't going anywhere and has been shown up as being a liar.

Agreed he changes his story each day last week it was he had not evened signed the HOA yet he is now back flipping yet no one has said anything. Imagine if he is announced as a Tiger after Origin will it be “Exclusive JAC returns to his home” by pooper.

It will be sorted in the next two weeks and if we miss out, we just get young guys to step up as Kei, Cini and Scholari are very quick.

The Club has not released the re-signing of McIntyre so no news is not surprising.

It’s looking that way

James Hooper is an idiot. Don’t believe a word he says

That’s a whole lot of ridiculous assumptions that you’ve made up after reading an article from one of the worst journalists who loves click bait. If JAC didn’t want to move back to Sydney he wouldn’t have asked for a release multiple times and he wouldn’t be talking like he wasn’t playing for Melbourne again.

 

[Sully]

I read the article on the FoxSport App and it might seem as a journo he cannot even spell correctly before publishing his dribble

“The Tigers have got Addo-Carrs signature OF a piece of paper” he then says reading between the lines JAC does not want to go to the Tigers. I am sure he cannot read between the lines.

Keep hearing he is closet Tigers fan..... Hope to see him at Leichhardt next season

Jac is a great winger. But unless he has that form at fullback we would not be certain for the top 8. For this reason I’m not too concerned.
Surely if he makes it at fullback with us it would be better than any wing offer he could get. Maybe he isn’t sure he will succeed. I also find it hard to believe any club would wait a year for a trial fullback. This really makes the whole situation funny as the longer it gets held out jac might be worse off. And if he sure to leave how long do Melbourne hold off.
If he has said after the gf that he would stay but isn’t interested have Melbourne just got false hopes. Guessing with a name like “ the FOX “
more than one club could be dudded
