Josh Hoffman joining the club on a basic deal for 2020.


Geez we can do ordinary.

Yes, cheap...but takes a valuable top 30 spot and we already have no quality 1-5.

Hoffman was never very good, and completely cooked now.

Edit not top 30 thank heavens!!!
 
Look through his wiki page .....shoulder injury .....shoulder injury .....shoulder injury probably thought someone had changed his name by depol to shoulder injury

So outside the Top 30 is the new excuse is it .....if we sign players outside the Top 30 they should be for the future ...not back to the future signings

Are they trying to get us relocated to Perth ......

This is the most disappointing POM visit to the site since the Pita Godinet news of late 2017.

The Poms post should’ve been made in the “hall of shame “ thread ..

I believe that he is not taking a top 30 spot.

In the top 30 or outside?

Understand it’s outside the top 30.

Thank heavens!!!!
 
Surely there is some younger players to play cc before Josh Hoffman...only thing I can think off is take him off eels books to get stefano over here quicker...?

It should be moved to an over 18's section of the forum. Kids shouldn't be exposed to that sort of disappointment so early in life.

At least the 2 Koalas I sponsored are benefiting from my money ...
Glad I didn’t tip in for the Josh Hoffman foundation !

It is very strange.

Not top 30, so won't help with NRL side now.
Old, so won't help long term.
Tons of injuries, so won't help much in state cup.
Not exactly a noted leader also.

An update on Godinet who sounds like he's killing it in France. Google translator looks like it's had a field day with this one

"Villeneuve-sur-Lot. Pita Godinet, the Leopards' X factor
Elite 1. When he played as against Palau lately, it was a treat Pita Godinet. A little bit of "chic chac", a skipped pass, a game with a millimeter foot or a brutal acceleration and that's how the neo melee half ... "

Can all the Chicken Little's please refer to the follow up post where POM states it's to be likely outside the 30.

Shouldn't non Top 30 signings be signings for the future .....not the glue factory

If our management is any good, that will be the case.

If it is a salary dump for Stefano = great move.

Can our management pull it off?

Going on the past we will get nothing, simply assist Parramatta.

Lets see.

Can the the Pom comment if this is indeed in return for Stefano?

Parra press featuring him a lot lately, does not look like they are about to let him go???

I would of been upset if we had signed 3 seasons ago ...
 
Like seagulls at the chip packet - that certainly got everyone flapping. Not sure what to make of this so will wait till official.
 
Hoffman …….geez Im over the moon with this signing even if it is outside the top 30...not..
Im actually peed off that we are still waiting with bated breathe for an announcement of a Marquee or top quality player...once again the club is still repeating the same old same old..feed the members and supporters some crumbs and then hit em with the stale bread..
I thought a leopard never changes its spots.....tigers don't either apparently...
