Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

If there is remotely any truth here we should be lucky we don’t have the Titans management. Imagine making a “best” offer to Arrow (a QLD Rep player) of $1.8m over 3 years while signing a unproven young gun on a deal worth $2m over 3 years. Then being “devastated” to lose Arrow.

Is it that bad for the Titans. Arrow to me is potentially an overpaid middle forward whereas that kid could be a weapon.

You just have to wait and see how it turns out. It's the same as Latrell on 1 million per year contract. Sure if might work out but it's risky.

The Jai Arrow move could mean they, the Titans can now afford to go after Latrell .. ?? As they got that young forward kid from the Storm to take Arrows position .. wasn't that Fa'asuamaleaui deal over 4 years .. ?

I don’t disagree with you Earl. Just seems strange to be “devastated” to lose him if they offered him less than the young bloke. It would indicate they felt the young bloke was worth more than a current rep forward.

If they were only able to offer Arrow 600k a season, they have no chance of getting latreen

Arrow is a 20s hype boy.

Isn't he a bit beat up in the brain?

He was OK for QLD.

I think he's massively over rated tho.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

He’s got nerve issues in his shoulder. It’s a lot of money to fork out for a guy with those issues.

Yeah, pass.....

Can't see him having an impact on the game like the OGs have had or the new up and comers.

I just don't think he's that good tbh.

South's thinking they're getting a new Sammy B... Haa. Mistaken.

We made them pay for him though..

They’ll release Gagai to titans and still afford Mitchell

Why? Arrow would have cost more than what Souths would get for Gagai.

Think gagai on decent coin 700, but who knows If on decent coin you’d think titans smart enough to demand Souths chip in.

The snippet above said 3Years, just under 700k a year

I'm still not up to date on how some folks believe Souths are a powerhouse glamour club being looked after by the NRL.

Their side is almost entirely non-glamour footballers, lots of battlers actually, and they have an ancient coach who is gonna retire soon enough, having knocked Souths back previously.

One premiership to their name and a recent string of finals failures.

If not for Rusty Crowe, a single element, they are on the same playing field as all the other Sydney teams and not in Roosters' league.

Make it simple for ya...
They have a huge fanbase and the NRL looks out for em.

I have mentioned previously Arrows partner wants to be the next super star model / actor the lure of Crowe was the bait and there it is ... agree Arrow is nothing special !

 

[hsvjones]

Happy we didn't get Arrow but happy we helped lift his price for Souths..
That money is needed for backs and Hooker.

Let’s be real, if Arrow signed with the Tigers the forum would be going nuts (in a good way)

He’s a great player and is still very young, great signing for the Rabbitohs imo

 

[Demps]

I for one and I assume others wouldn't be going nuts of signing him.

Sure he's an origin rep.
But they lost.

Sure we can do better.

Yeah, I had no desire at all for him to come here. Just average player born north of the border.

Nope disagree . We have way too many middles , and a real lack of outside backs. There’s plenty of people on here who were saying arrow wasn’t the go. Now with Musgrove here and that Parra prop next year , that money should be allocated elsewhere
