Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

If a player has done their time and is a talent, sign them up.

Id even have a sniff around Manase in a couple of years...

People should be given the chance to redeem themselves after their penance.
I think we are of the same view, however at the risk of being too pedantic on semantics, I would say they deserve the chance to earn their redemption.

By which I mean there'd be more clauses in their contracts than Golem dressed as a tiger at Halloween....

Manase was looking to be one of the best 9’s in the comp before his incident. Would be worth giving him the chance although I’m pretty sure his shoulder is/was completely cooked, there’s a real possibility even without prison his NRL career could have been over by now
 
As mentioned by a few, the narrative of the Roosters offloading T. May pisses me off - as opposed to the crap we get cutting players.

Anyway, another positive of having Luai - he is absolutely a player other players want to play with. So here's hoping he's a draw for one or two of the May's.
Stef and Ice didn’t.

So if Pole does want to go to Melbourne do we ask for NAS straight away? Or let the season play out?

The issue would be the big dollars NAS is on in this year's cap.

Bateman out.

If we land May & Hetherington I think we just play it out & keep Pole as bench impact on lower dollars.

The contract extension stated an upgrade this year & 2 years after that.

Obviously the upgrade doesn't happen.

8. May*
9. Korosaui
10. Twal
11. Bird
12. Sam Fainu
13. Hetherington*
14. Latu Fainu
15. Seyfarth
16. Hunt
17. Pole

18. Sione Fainu*
19. Da Silva

There is zero indication he would want to go down there early if he signs. If he did though, signing NAS would be a little silly given May has just come on the market. Any roster spot that becomes available, he should be no 1 priority.
