Absolutely, I cannot believe people are suggesting it.

jack de belin free to play
theres the lock the tigers need

If he is, sign him up straight away. Saints just spent money on McGuire. De belin is a free agent after '21?

yep, i remember reading maybe last year they were hesitant to re-sign him (i think they said something about it looking bad) which if i was JDB i would be pretty annoyed about
 
Jack De'Bag wasn't that good before the Off field stuff.
Even worse after sitting in a court house, stressing himself to exhaustion for the past two years.
No thanks.

Key point a woman claimed she was raped by him,he kept on being paid for 2 years while it was being judged and neither his guilt or innocence was established.What did the alledged victim get apart from notoriety and not being believed.

an alleged rapist...anyone can allege anything. it was thrown out, there wasn't sufficient evidence to conclude what happened.

i'm not saying he was innocent and the only people that know what went down in the hotel room is the 3 of them, but 1 charge was found not guilty the rest they couldn't get unanimous decision on and the DPP decided not to take it to a third trial. not one charge could be unanimously agreed upon that he was guilty of what he was alleged to of done.

besides who leaves a hotel room and then walks into the next club with the accused rapists laughing and carrying on when the security guard was right there.

the nrl has guilty players running around who have threatened women that they will die, bashed women including their wives/girlfriends, people who spray flyspray or whatever it was in their mouth to avoid a drink driving charge. all found guilty, but an alleged rapist is where the line is drawn, even after it was thrown out

this is why the club goes nowhere, any star that is available is either not the position we need because you know the guy in the same spot is a world beater, its the other teams system, or we don't like the players jib
JDB was the premium player 2.5 years ago, i wouldn't be signing him on the same $ value based on 2.5 year old form but he is still at his peak playing age, clearly kept in shape

Hynes is good but where would we play him? We have a fullback, we have a 5/8 and he's not a halfback.... he'd be an excellent 14 but he's not leaving storm to be a utility.

Wherever he wants . At this stage he's a more complete footballer than our7, 6, and 1.
Last week he carried his team on his back.
Seen any of ours do that lately?

'Wherever he wants' is not good business - unless we move on Brooks he doesn't really have a spot here and can understand why the club wouldn't be after him.

We need wingers and centres and second rowers a lot more than another spine player. He's good but I don't see him playing as well outside of the Melbourne system either.

He has a spot at 1 in my team - You say we have a FB, we can always do with a FB that is a lot better and Hynes eats Laurie at the moment. Laurie has much to learn and I can see another Brooks scenario coming up, 3 or 4 seasons we'll still be saying, "Oh! he will be a lot better next year." Laurie needs to go back to Reggies like Simpkin and learn his trade - e.g. organise the team line, learn to tackle, improve an almost non existent kicking game, chime into the backline and be part of it. When he can do all that he will be as good as Nico Hynes.

As far as playing outside the Melbourne system - he can do it himself (not like a Blair that had one job to do) but how did players like Kimmorley, Widdup and GI go after they left the Storm. Hynes makes his own breaks, sets up plays for others etc. he does not totally rely on other players. This was no more in evidence than last weekend.

Yep can't say anything against Laurie even if it would benefit the team. Lol

Just like when Liddle gets dropped a certain poster goes missing ?
( won’t name anyone)

clearly wasn't for the jury, the defense pushed that a fair bit from all reports and the jury obviously had enough question marks over it

so if i accuse you of something but there's not sufficient evidence either way we are forced to assume that you are guilty of it? even though nobody can verify either way. just my word against yours.

i'm not saying he is a saint, he had a pregnant girlfriend or whatever back at home from memory. but again, in the eyes of the law as of right now he isn't a rapist
