Rumour circulating Smith has signed with Titans.

It's amazing what a random photo of a guy in a park will do to muppets.

I’m not sure I understand what yer trying to say? Are you calling me a muppet? Or are you calling Zane Bojack a muppet?
Who’s the guy in the park?
I don’t know Zane Bojack from the ABC or where he heard this so called strong rumour, but if you know something Balmain boy then let’s hear it?

I was told Smith would play for the Titans 3 months ago but wouldn't sign until March. That way they don't pay him from November until March so save a few months salary cap. Probably getting him for $400 k.

Would they even be able to sign him for 490j? Still a lot less than what he's been on at the Storm. Even with a few months wiped out it's still half what he was on.

I would think 500k would be the minimum acceptable salary under the cap

No not you, but a simple photo of him in a park on the Gold Coast and social media all suddenly announce that he's officially signed for the Titans

Now Josh Aloiai has moved to Manly we need someone new to cut the grass. Maybe Adam Elliott is our man. Reminds me of the Wayne Carey/Anthony Stevens incident.

Your learning how to be funny magpie
I think it was more a peck on the lips
He wasn't actually using his pecker

He was definitely using his pecker and it was alot more then a kiss. Lichaaa has plenty of friends left at the dogs and since Elliott hasnt done anything illegal it will be so good to watch this derail the bulldogs.

Didn't Elliott move up to the NT to be with his wife and new baby during the Covid sojourn in NSW?

That’s two families with children in the middle in turmoil. Alot of my friends go for the bulldogs and they want him gone, they say he’s a massive tool and can’t control himself on the drink.

Hmmmm..... "Adam Elliott" and "massive tool" brings back certain images of a Mad Monday event at The Rocks. Just like his credentials as a high quality NRL player, I think "massive" is an overstatement.

Banging your best mates fiancée at his house doesn’t make you a massive tool??

Ummmm .... I think you missed my attempt at humour.

I agree that him making out with his mate's gf is a disgraceful dog act. I feel for Lichaa if it's all true.

In the guys house,! N0 class. The garage would have kept the noise down.

I heard from someone at Newcastle in December that cam was signing with broncos but they had to shed some players and he would only be signed mid season due to salary cap

So I guess it's safe to assume Hastings wasn't signed two days ago, effective immediately?

"Emphasis is on signing for 2022"

NRL club set to sign Jackson Hastings
By Callum WalkerFebruary 2, 2021

Wigan halfback Jackson Hastings is apparently close to signing a deal with NRL side Wests Tigers for 2022, according to WWOS.

The number seven has repeatedly hit the headlines in the past few seasons, winning the Man of Steel and attracting a number of suitors from abroad. But, his Wigan contract runs out at the end of 2021.

Hastings has been back in Australia during the holiday period and, with the Tigers losing both Benji Marshall and Josh Reynolds, it almost seems a perfect fit.

The Australian made his debut for Sydney Roosters in 2014 before a less-than successful spell at Manly paved the way for a move to Super League outfit Salford Red Devils midway through 2018. A Grand Finalist with Salford in 2019 and Wigan in 2020, the halfback has taken to the English game like a duck to water.

But, it now appears as though a renaissance with Australia’s most prestigious league is on the cards. A move had previously been rumoured before the start of the 2020 Super League season, yet that didn’t materalise. Now, though, the Wigan star looks to be on his way.

Sounds like a cap rort to me

Probably is still getting paid from Nov-March just in the form of expensive gifts or made up jobs for family members that don't exist with companies that don't exist.

"Shedding" "Offloading" "Jettisoning"
 
So you tell what has been substantiated. As far as I can see there's nothing. Even Mage won't substanstiate anything.

The only thing that can be substantied on this thread over the last few days is there is tremendous hatred for Cam. Whether that hatred is substantiated is also a matter of conjecture.

Definitely.

He's the most hated player in the game for a reason.

There are a couple of journos out there who get the good oil from WT. If they write an article saying it's close then that's substantiated.

Going off the Mole is just pot luck
