Have we signed Cammy yet ?
Asking for a disgruntled friend.

It would skyrocket our top 8 chances if we did ? would also skyrocket the anger on the forum

It wouldn't be just the forum. Wests Tigers would have some explaining to do.

Not sure signing the best hooker in the game needs much explaining besides 'we want to win games'


It's called integrity. He has none, so yeah there would be some explaining to be done.

Jeez you act like he's a criminal or something there's a million worse players to have played NRL who aren't nearly as talented. We could only dream of even trying to sign a player that good let alone turn him down!


He's the worst kind. He got away with it. Should have been rubbed out of the game. He's a low life human being to boot. If he walked into a room, I'd walk out. That's how much I despise the scum.

Not much of a fan of Smith as a person but I’d argue Packer and Musgrove aren’t any better..
 
I think a lot of the Cam Smith hate is jealousy.

Firstly, there were a lot of players at the storm team, and I don't hear the same level of hate to all of those players. In fact there were players at Parramatta, bulldogs & cronulla who also breached the cap and i don't hear the same level of hate to them.

If you are so righteous about salary cap breaches, you should be against all these players equally and even more so the player agents and club administrators.

Secondly, there are players convicted of serious crimes, including DV, rape, violence and drugs. Including players in our own club. If your concerned about salary cap are a moral issue, I trust you are also concerned about all of these also.

Thirdly, there are players like Hayne, Barbara, Inglis, and others who have ticked both boxes. But I don't hear as much hate for them as Smith.

It's OK if you don't like Smith, but if you are using am morale argument at least be consistent.

Have you ever met the bloke? People who actually worked with him can't talk enough about how great he is. Genuinely seems like he loves the game and loves helping grow his club.

I assume you have the same disdain for every other Melbourne player who cheated the cap? Fun fact Madge was assistant coach for all those stripped premierships...

So Madge too? He was assistant coach at the time. I just can't understand how you can hate someone you've never met who's worst crime is dodgying the books. Anyway you won't change your opinion on it which is fair enough so no point talking about it more

Smith knew he was cheating because he was his own manager,to a certain extent i can excuse his team mates because they had their managers looking after them.Smith has no excuses he has no middleman to blame

Lets be real, because it matters. Musgrove was never convicted for DV and the time that those charges were levelled at him, the charges were dropped prior to trial. He smashed a gate in a rage. MASSIVE difference to DV and he doesnt deserve to be smeared with that.

We need to be giving people like Madden, Talau, Mikaele, Uitokomanu, Fitzgibbon, Laurie, Simpkin, as much opportunity as we can to prove themselves as first graders because if we're gonna add superstars to our roster we're probably gonna be developing them.

Too much to early crippled the broncos.

I nice blend of youth and experience is the key.

Madge has got this.

One of the most obnoxious people i have met in my life was an immortal (Bob Fulton).A total scumbag and that is being polite.Most Manly supporters feel the same way about him even though he has been involved at the club for a long time(player etc).
