Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Rock Hopper Steve]

I take your point here.

I guess it's always going to be hard (not impossible) to keep a player that has grown restless. At any club with any CEO.

I will say though, I've not actually heard reports that Bula has itchy feet.

Most of the talk has consistently been that both parties love working together.

In fact, Read only yesterday had mentioned that he looks like Jahream may well take up his end of the offer when they meet next week. Reliability of journo opinions aside, Brent has admitted in the past that he talks to both Isaac and Richo, so probably a fair guide I'd assume.

Oh well, we'll find out one way or another.

What's he worth?

800K max and that's on potential.

….and how will Bula be different?
Why are all these young guns who we publicly stated would be the foundation pieces of this club’s rebirth, so keen to get out of here?
We have a lot less problem attracting mature talent than keeping homegrown pathway products.

When did Bula say he was keen to get out of here?

 

[Tito Santana]

Yes, and that’s the point being discussed.
Are you finding this hard to follow?

You’re the reason I disliked Charlie Kirk. All you want to do is criticise everything because it’s how you get attention. A grade knob.

Don't blame him.

NAS in talks with eels.
We really should be grabbing him , he’s exactly what we need

Yeah, not in the slightest. Not when we already have Hunt and Bunty. How many 30 min props is enough?

Agree G in my perfect world Royce and Bunty make the bench, no room for Nelson in the 17.

Haas $3m a season is crazy if true …. The season only goes for 12 weeks so he can play somewhere else as well and earn more … What are they offering the top Union players ?

Such a Haasbeen

Who makes your bench Seyfarth, Bunty has always given us trouble in the middle of the park and Royce looks fitter than he's been in years, giving him the benefit of the doubt.

It’s going to be hilarious when PVL is forced to backtrack on his R360 stance. What a blowhard.

I’ll believe it when players actually walk , although if this is genuine then the NRL is in for a tough time …I find it interesting that there is no media reports of big offers being made to Rugby Union players …. They are going to need to sign a lot more of them then NRL to fill out a Rugby Union competition

That’s not quite correct t! It has been reported that numerous players have been approached. Therms like 7 wallabies, 10 current English internationals, current Welsh internationals etc. Nono specific names at this stage. Tindall and co understand if names are in public before the competition has the complete go ahead ( financial & a viewing platform) then the players named lose their livehood.

Would you rather them be here underperforming on massive contracts?

Well said...

You miss the point.
Richo tried to keep them and lost. That is the worry with the current Bula negotiations. It’s got nothing to do with anything other than that.

This started from "Stef, Lachy and Galvin".

Were we trying to sign both personalities of Lachlan Galvin?


Stef has been weird leaving the Tigers. He played finals and is more Consistent. Would we have wanted him at 1m though... NO. Not a single forum poster has said "Why dinnit we keep Stefano and not sign Terrell May?"

Not 1.

 

[poopy_diaper]

If we want to criticise Richo let's criticise him for giving NRL opportunities preferentially to his sons clients. That's a recurring theme I grow tired of.

If Hunt seriously has lost 10kg then I’d have him but Bunty has zero impact off the bench

 

[orange&black]

To be honest I really don’t care that we were unsuccessful in our attempts to sign Stef, Galvin or TDS. Especially considering that we would have had to pay them way more than they would have been worth. None of them wanted to be here and they would have only caused trouble and division.
A matter of fact not only do I really not care- I’m actually happy Richo didn’t succeed!!

Why?

Because he tried.

Look, I can't watch Union and understand it. It's not my sport.
I am 100% OK with NRL drawing a line.

He hasn't even pulled on a jersey for us yet and you want to right him off, so typical of player bashing that there's too much of on here.

At least wait till he puts in a shit performance like the rest of us before you put the boot in.
