No one is against it teddy, just some me included are balking at the 900k asking price, it reeks of chasing the money mentality which hasn't worked out well for us in the past.
Didn't make much of a difference last year - beat Parramatta ( in fact quite well) who'd played in the first round, won R3 also quite well against the Dolphins that had played 2 matches in a row. That sort of disproves that argument.
Agree. For clubs like ours, we really have to play a money ball type strategy with the salary cap as we don't have the lure YET of the more successful clubs for external players.
Easily. We still have plenty of cap space in 2026 (Richo said as much in his BTR interview). Keaon would be for 2027 which we would have even more cap space for.
Glad you can see the downside from a club perspective as I do mate.
It was reported that Luai landed a sizeable TPA would there be any room left to fork out on Keon as well.
Apologies I was wrong should go to Specsavers
Oh ooh, you were wrrr wrrr Fonzie can't say it lol but you manned up, outstanding.
You've lost me. We played the knights rd 1 this year, were dreadful and lost. That game was on
I can't find anywhere this is reported apart from a few on here claiming as such and the rest of the forum taking it as fact.
What does that mean?
Media reported it when the signing was being done, can that be trusted well I'll leave that up to your judgement but what else is there to go off the club isn't going to advertise it, loose lipped friends our player agents probably the source.
It means that playing for Manly lower grades would be the right place for him, promised so much but delivered so little.
This would be amazing. I've heard (for a while now) that we've been targeting a big-name forward from up north and have been getting our cap ready to make a big offer. My thoughts were Tio or Haas. But i actually believe Keon would be a better fit and on a little less coin.
Parra are favourites
Some much needed common sense in this post.
