Josh Addo Carr Contract Discussion

[Milky]

Its easy to see how information gets twisted on this forum. Milky says "We aren't even close to getting him', and ten posts later that becomes "why you reckon we don't have a chance". Not close to getting him does not necessarily equate to we don't have a chance.

Thats right, i am not saying we don’t have a chance. What im saying is at the moment we are not even close to getting him.

What else im saying is he won’t be playing for Melbourne...

I saw him last Monday in a cafe in Erskineville not far from the Bunnies headquarters.
He gave nothing away.

Why though? Is it money? Have West’s made an offer? Does he not like the club? Coach? Facilities? Not close in that West’s arnt interested or JAC not interested.

Dear God man, let it go. You have no idea he’s even legit and you are on him like a seagul on a chip.

You’ll burn yourself out if you aren’t careful.

True, typing questions about a footy signing is really putting a strain on my wellbeing. Thanks for the concern champ.

my point was, we have one poster saying West’s are JAC preference and another saying they're not even close, if you’re gunna put it out there have a few facts or don’t bother. I really don’t see the thrill folks get from it. Not a shot at you Milky, just a general comment on quiet a few blokes on here of late with the inside scoop.

Tbh JAC coming or not dosent raise my needle at all.

Not the first time we’ve had two “insiders” with completely opposite info. I remember Smoking Gun and Fumbles having an epic running battle over Tedesco in 2017.

Mate, you are way off on your comprehension of what he said and have got yourself in a twist over nothing. By not close, it seems he is saying that there would be a lot of work still to be done to get him to the club, that the process of signing him still has a long way to go.

I find it hilarious that anyone considers a teenager who follows players on insta as an 'insider'
Next people will be talking about hiring Jonesy as a motivational speaker

 

[jirskyr]

Milky is an insider now? Wow things change quickly in this forum.

Insider on Dragon Ball Z, Nintendo Switch and whatever else the kids are into these days.

 

[tigger19]

Penrith were interested in JAC could see him going there,if.not souths

Drops the fair bit about a few players ..then leaves...lol

Yeah mate, take as many digs as you like, if you think my source is instagram then so be it.

I don’t really care.

Media is reporting JAC has been denied a release, i’m telling you that is correct but there is no chance of him playing for Melbourne. He simply won’t be there.

 

[Newtown]

We’ve got one insider saying west’s are his preferred club and another insider saying west’s are no chance.

I think it’s safe to say our insiders are more like outhouses.

Insiders have a rails run to popularity (or notoriety) on this forum.

 

[NT_Tiger]

It appears to me that part of the problem with information transmission on this forum is due to poor english comprehension skills. It's like chinese whispers except that, because it is written, the problem should be negated.

 

[Spud_Murphy]

Who cares if he doesn't come to WT? In all seriousness, if the so-called marquee signing turned out to be JAC, then we are totally and utterly a basket case.

having a current blues and kangaroo winger coming to us would be a marquee signing. And he appears to have a personality that would ignite a dressing room I personally would rate that move highly.

But what I think a lot of people are more concerned about, and me personally being a Dad, is the welfare of his kids. That personally takes the emphasis off where the guy plays

I don't care about his dressing room lighting personality. And, I don't doubt his achievements since leaving the Tigers to join the Storm but, unless he can play fullback (and I don't think his handling or defence are up to standard for it) then it is a watse of cash, IMO. I serously don't think we become a top-four club by signing a fast winger with an infectious laugh. No, thanks.

Yes but think of how many tries might actually be scored now because of his pure speed. We'd have someone to throw the ball to, put into a gap or take an intercept who could actually outrun the opposition instead of being mowed down 10 or 20 metres out. That would make a huge difference in itself.

Well I guess we'll see in a short time if this turns out to be true.

I'll take a Nostradamus punt (because I really know no one or nothing) and predict that bosom buddies JAC & Latrell will end up together at Souths with their other bosom buddy Jimmy the jet and we'll end up with Walker, Johnson (God forbid) and Gagai! That should be sufficient enough to send this place into meltdown ?

I would have a coronary if that nightmare happened

 

[Elderslie_Tiger]

IT Is believed that Addo-Carr has split from his manager and is now handling negotiations himself, with the Wests Tigers reportedly at the forefront to secure him.

The above was taken from an article about JAC requesting a release which has been denied.
We need a wait and see here because if he is he'll bent on coming to Sydney for family reason it paints Storm in a bad light and could do them more harm in trying to keep him then being compassionate to his request.
Also I do remember seeing JAC interviewed when leaving the WT's saying he was sad to leave but could be back one day and also I think in the early days Souffs rejected him and he went to Sharks then we gave him his big opportunity to play first grade which hopefully may count for something

 

[Roar_Power]

JAC would be a great addition. He would come with a hefty price tag for a winger and if he came on board, I imagine Nofo would be shopped given his annual salary exceeds $450k.
