Gee we dodged a bullet by not getting that pensioner Hodgson, I hope sheens has a couple of players still up his sleeves , would have thought he may have got a couple more poms

 

[Nathser]

These parra signings look like signings we would've rushed into a couple years ago, refreshing for a change.

Cotric would've been good, but I'm keener to see what we whip up from here now

 

[tiger05premier]

Cotric no real loss for us.

If we’re willing to spend 500 odd thousand there, better off spent on an actual centre than a winger who thinks he’s one.

Yeah like Lomax

 

[tiger05premier]

Farnworth Cotric

Much better

But we won't get him

 

[OzLuke]

Josh Hodgson official to Parra......in 2023. He'll be 33 when he gets there.

2 year deal

You’re kidding?

Nope. Will be 35 when it's done haha

such a tigers signing

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

Lomax would be a great option but don't he leaves dragons

Following WT blue print, losing their best players and signing oldies

He's got 4 years left on his Dragons contract. Why does he keep getting mentioned by people as someone to target

 

[cktiger]

Im not keen on Thompson being the highest paid at the club.

You’re forgetting Luke Brooks.

Thompson is 800k

Brooks is on 900k

No he’s not

His previous contract was circa 550k I think it was upgraded to 650/700k.

He’s been upgraded more than once.
He’s easily on $800- $850k … unfortunately.
Why do you think he wants to stay … and nobody wants him at that price?

I suppose the same reason that Curtis Rona was mentioned for years.

 

[hank37w]

Well after all these years we finally got Rona.

Unfortunately it's Cor-Rona.

Parra winding back the clock to the glory days.
I remember the off season they signed Carl Webb, Chris walker and Paul Whatuira.

Probably combined for 20 games before all retired

Even if he’s 800-850K.. remember he’s part of the “old club” with Nofa, take 100K off..

Would be anywhere between 700-800 IMO

Don’t forget Chris Hicks. Recruitment was a giant pisstake for them that off season.

 

[Glenji95]

With Cotric heading back to Canberra I’m 100% confident that James Roberts will get a new contract for 2022 Thompson could still happen to fill our squad because I reckon that the final 2 spots will be 1 back and 1 forward the back is definitely JTJ if its not its one of our lower grade players and the final spot could be that guy we signed from Knights Christian I think his name is if we aren’t trying for Thompson

 

[Wokk_]

I know we tried once before but if we have Cotric to raiders confirmed, would we reconsider going after Sami? I can't see that he has signed anywhere at this stage.

You only get to take 100k off one long serving player as far as I am aware.
That is off the cap - he still gets the money.

 

[WT46]

Don't bring or mention the forgotten nrl man Facebook page here again.. he has terrible mail and insider news... lol

 

[WT46]

So glad we still got that money free for someone else and not a winger who thinks he can play anywhere.. Thompson next?

Maybe they will play more ball with us regarding how much they cover if Canberra was willing to pay more for Cotric.
