Is he available to play Monday? 🤣

Only if he eats his Weetbixs

 

[Camel2281]

was it that much was it Camel ?

it was not 1.1 million in last year of his contract

can confirm manly deal was $750k first year

I get it not your most liked player nor did he play that good for the club however please dont just state salary as fact as it is simply not correct.

It was definitely, and it was very widely reported. In his last season with us he was one of the highest paid players in the game. We offered him half of his last year's salary to extend based on his failure to perform. He chose more cash at manly

absolutely incorrect
you have no idea on that one mate, I get you don't rate him but here is a tip dont believe every bs thing you read

it was back ended but nowhere near 1.1 million
as for what he was offered to stay, verbally it was around 650k then the contract came it was around 500k
the manly deal was 750k
such a good deal they were surprised tbh when it came through

Still overs for him…..

God I’m glad he’s not part of our club.

A key reason we were shit for so long.

Is he related to Manu Vatuvei?

Found a Daily Tele article interesting this morning where they classify our depth chart (top 30) as deep:

Speaks volumes about Pascoe and Lee. We didn’t even need to pay him his “unders”. No one wanted him and those that do now will be signing out of desperation.

salary is what you are prepared to work for i guess
it would be like your boss agreeing verbally to offer you 100k a year and then when the contract is put in front of you they offer you 80k
that is basically what happened

in the end worked out well for both parties, he got 250k more than offer (same manager as manly coach helped) and we got Luai

Another junior locked up to add from the one yesterday. Good sign for the pathways system after winning the AJ & LD cups over the weekend

club seems to be securing the kids they want to build our AJC and HM sides around for the next few years at the minute.
