Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Difference is this year Canberra had a fit Fogerty next to Strange. Go back to part of last year and Strange was the organiser along with Weekes. I think next year will be interesting. Strange being a right footer will move across and Sanders will control the team from the left. In our case Latu won’t shine unless Luai becomes that organiser we were hoping for.

You don't think latu can become that organising #7? Didn't he play 7 a bit coming through the grades?

No one seems to consider the 900k+ we're paying Hunt and Bird to get bugger all from in the Top 17 week to week.
And now they're free to leave with us carrying the can on them
(Isn't that self admission of getting it wrong?) And he's saying we've got nothing coming? Worrying...

It's more like 550-600k isn't it?

Article in the SMH confirms Galvin shopped himself to the Panthers when he found out we signed Luai and they were not interested as they too believed he was a 13, they were already courting Blaize to replace Luai.

Just when I think I'm done hating him, a piece of info like this pops up to remind me what a self entitled little cnt he is.. yeah mate, the panthers were going to take you to replace Luai.. what a fkn idiot.

Birds contract was less than half of what he was on at the dragons.. it ended up being between 250-300 at the tigers..
Hunt was around 300k too
Could be wrong they are just the numbers I've seen floated around

Bird was reported to be around 400k per season,
and Hunt about the same or better (I read 600k somewhere - But surely we're not that Stupid)

Minimum wage for top 30 is 120-150 these days,
And you're only allowed a certain amount of players on that (4 maybe)
Everyone else is north of that, and those 2 - were well north of that when we got them.

Bird and Hunt aren't playing for 250k, when the likes of Tumeth etc. are on 120+

Hunt is on a lot more then 300k, that’s why the club is trying to move him on

Not sure I didn’t see him in his juniors, at rep junior level HM, SG he was a running six played 7 a couple times for Workers in Cup. I see he has the straightness of a 7 but lacks the place kicking and strategist of a general.

That will all develop with time though for now we also will have Doueihi at 13 to help

burton is terribly overrated. there’s a reason the dogs may move him on, 4 try assists all year. you all tear luai apart for his stats, burton’s are horrible for a 6. i think he’s a centre at best

Burtons boot has kept the dogs in many games this year. Converting tries is not the only stat that counts in the halves.
