Fox is busted and thinks he’s bigger than the game. Pass.

Wasn't the point I was making....
Fox does a better job, and is on less money.
Cobbo has more potential - Sure
I don't think he'll get there as it is, If he were here - It would be an absolute disaster.

Either way,
He wants a million and aint worth half that.

Is it already arranged (just not official) or is there still negotiations required.
As in is it a hope that he leaves or has Penrith agreed to an unannounced release?
 
One thing for certain is the introduction of any new franchises will send players asking price through the roof.
So now is the time to stitch up any elite signings. We need to get our kids signed up to.

Can’t see Galvin going to PNG but he will be able to use them to inflate his next deal. It’s going to be like the super league war again where players will hold the whip

You obviously don’t watch too many Penrith games.
Expect to be crying if we do sign him. 675-800k will be a bargain deal for us. I think our offer will start with a 9 or even a 1.

That is waaaay too much for a winger. I don't think a winger has ever been on close to that. Won't be able to afford Galvin if we have 1.2M in Luai and that sort of money for a winger, not to mention the other expensive contracts we're carrying for Sullivan, Klemmer, Latu, Bula, Api etc.

If a player like Gal tries to use PNG as a negotiating tool, I’d say off ye pop then, and next offer is less. I’m no fish.
But a player like Olam, then that’s different. Will they have Bennett as their first coach? Otherwise I don’t see PNG as a major threat in the market like the fins, and right now after the rubbish and injuries Olam put out this year I’d happily say off ya pop.

With PNG something will be done to convince players to play up there, e.g they might be given a 50% higher cap than the rest of the NRL teams. Otherwise I agree with you that they will find it difficult to recruit from other teams.

Earlier this week he was on the news stating that he was going nowhere and how he was committed to the Panthers, it's sometimes hard to believe whether a footballer is lying or not (I suppose this only occurs when they open their mouth)!!

So true. If this does come to fruition, we'll be paying for one of the best wingers in the world at the peak of his powers PLUS the experience, leadership & cultural value he brings to the squad PLUS the marketing power he brings to the club. So $800k would be good value IMO.

You are also getting better carries out of the backfield than we’ve probably ever had. Much more than “just a winger”.

Not to mention he’d improve the clubs credibility with players/managers even further.
