nothing wrong with throwing a young fella in -its the Bunjie way,and yes please to having cash laying around,when ,market favorable

A parramatta member friend if mine seems to think we are paying half of joffa's 2024 salary and parra are paying all of the 2025 salary. So potentially we are paying 300k for him to play elsewhere in 2024

Not a chance. That's a new level of stupid. Surely....

I assume that this is money already paid for this year and the dude has it wrong. I suppose it doesn't matter too much because this year it's a non issue. The only issue this year is the available spot.

Sheens is known for his bad decisions in the past for doing things like this (Gibbs and Fifita from memory).

I've always enjoyed having Joffa in the team, plays with a lot of heart.
But I'll admit he's not been great this year. And compared to the other big minute props in the side I'm not sure what his point of difference is. When he was playing for Queensland he was a lot heavier and got the arm free much more consistently. Since he's slimed down he can play huge minutes but at a big cost to his impact. I can understand the logic behind the clubs decision but I wonder what impact it will have on morale.

Flannigan still laughing his head of in that trade - but the club was busted,broke,not really Sheens fault

Must be Hoffa for gutho who needed to make way for xfactor fullback

no next year we are apparently paying 300k of his 600k
Interesting joffa went for the medical today at Parramatta and tigers have pulled the deal so maybe we are not happy with how much freight we are having to pay or something

Fonua Pole is ill, so WT have asked Joe to play one more game. 😂😂😂😂😂 wasn't everyone saying
"We've got plenty of middles who are better"
One gets the flu and you ask the guy you just agreed you don't need, to stay 1 more week. Yeah, I trust these guys with our Cap. 😂😂

100% and it just proves what an amaturish decision this was.
Complete bumbling fcking morons….

 

[Tucker]

You reckon it's panic? my take is we owe Parra no favours so lets let them wait one more week...just as an inconvenience.

Yeah that’s what is happening….what a gullible take

Gutho has been saying he needs a rest,Tedesco is not far behind,is the cheapest quote always the best

If we are paying any freight at all, this is a pathetic trade.
Can’t believe these dickheads…you just have to laugh.

Earl,you straying from the Brookes channel ?

The decision to release Joffa is not about this year. This year there will be no finals. So what if we have to use Seyfarth for a few games. It’s about getting better value for the money we’re not paying to Joffa in 24 and 25.

it could be bs but something had to have happened I mean he had the medical with parramatta today and passed apparently yet we are not releasing him.
Another reason apparently is Pole is sick so we need joffa this week, seems strange if true as we either have replacements ready e.g matamua or blore or we don't and if we don't why release joffa

 

[Tucker]

Timing is critical - you are right. We have until June to strengthen the squad. For that we need roster space and we now have it. The press will turn everything around to make WT look stupid, and we have deserved it more often than not, but our actions over the last 6-8 months have been planned and I have no reason do doubt that this has been very thoroughly thought through.

Thoroughly thought through???
That would be the first time ever for this joint.
I’ll bet you the opposite is true.

 

[Halbrowne61]

And we all expect Jofa to run at full tilt and bust his ass on Saturday night and jeopardise his new Contract?
Cool

Well he really hasn’t done that all season( which is why he’s been attracting negative feedback on the forum), so why would he start now !

How do you know that?

Maybe Tim wants him to have a nice LO farewell in conjunction with Brooks 200th.
What a lovely sentimental guy that TS is !🤣
