Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

PMSL!
Zero clue - but can't help itself from posting snarky & condescending hot takes with no basis in reality!
Nick was taking 'holier than thou' pot-shots at Souths and Brisbane when he made the statement to SMH - and has been proven to be a situational hypocrite (like his supposed stance on not working with Moses clients is just a facade)...
Nick always finds a loop-hole - but this is a complete backflip on his "zero tolerance" statement no matter how he spins it!
Radley was never getting sacked - because they rate him too highly - and they also will do what is required to protect the reputation of Teflon "Squid Games" Tedesco at all costs!!
It is an unedifying event for all parties - that further tarnishes the Roosters and Tedesco's fake PR veneers!
I think he's our starting 7 next season
found the teeth joke at the end of your rant highly amusing
He's been detrimental to Newcastle. He's been awful
If Radley is Forced out
He Will go with the new coach to Newcastle
He Will go with the new coach to Newcastle

I don't care re discipline, well I see it as a tradeoff.
But the HIA assessments, how much are real and how much are Roosters trying to give their middles a break? I reckon there is at least a 50/50 factor there....
He is on 750k at Easts. I doubt Easts would pay anything to offload him. I could see Drag queens or another team paying full freight for VR. If we do sign him I would prefer a shorter contract, i.e. 2 years on higher coin, then 4 years on low coin.
Man, I reckon No to Victor Radley... but the more I think about it, it's a tough choice. Good player and good work ethic.

Context?
Did he cut you off in traffic or steal the last packet of Mint Tim tams from your supermarket?

We only really have 2-3 Versatile players now....
I see this as a good thing. Because we used to have a lot of "not a winger, not a center" Kind of players. Brent Naden typifies this, Daine Laurie (not a fullback, not really a 5/8 but can play sometimes). Compared to say Turuva, May, etc.
AD has learned some versatility, still doesn't want to be Center and that's where we have needed him for ages. Hope he can keep up his current performance because we have seen rocks n diamonds from him.
Jack Bird is probably our most versatile player next to AD. He can cover 2nd row, center, 5/8... But damn the guy has really dropped form.
Otherwise it's Heath Mason.
It's good to have a few Utilities. But I prefer to have few and far between. They mean you can have fewer depth positions as you have the flexibiility. ... Glad though, we have picked people who have owned their positions and kept them. First graders over fringe graders.
