@happy_tiger

Packer could be back next week whilst Matulino could be out for in excess of a month as per https://www.nrl.com/news/2019/06/27/lodge-peachey-could-move-as-silly-season-heats-up/

Thanks mate ....any coincidence the minute the transfer window is closed packer is available

Time to shine Russell

The Cayless 'boil' cleared up..

Wrong Parra brother , brother lol

@willow ur right we’ve all gone crazy without the footy, need a good signing to help us back on the right track. Think Ese’ese could be that

 

[Spud_Murphy]

@Tiger_Steve I didn’t disrespect him... he clearly knows nothing as questioned me whether/if I had a source for Packer’s injury when it’s as common knowledge as Farah’s deal.

Don’t try and get up in my grill maybe I wouldn’t have made an enemy of you previously. IIRC, we still had a respectful convo and agreed to ignore each other from then on, so yes... obviously no beef if I’m stating facts for where my opinion is formed and he is also free to disagree. You say I’m ripping and tearing everybody? Who??

Nice blow in, totally unnecessary but here’s hoping we get an uplifting result tonight

Lets focus our single enemy all .....Iv Cleary

Oh and The People's Front of Judea .....

No it's the Judean People's Front!

Sure we can all be a lot more civilized when it comes to bemoaning a potential signing or even looking at the position of our club in general in this thread , i'd know was recently banned with good reason ! Wasn't fun watching the live game thread from the sidelines 🙁 alls I know is everybody will be happier when it's FRIDAY

Honest mistake, Darwin stubbies a little bigger than a schooie.

Big fan of Ese'Ese. Here's hoping we can work some magic and get him to the tigers.

Not sure if this has been posted here but doesn't make for the best reading. No marque players until 2021!

I have been giving Pascoe the benefit of the doubt as I don't think he has done much wrong, but if he is letting Benji and Robbie decide if they are playing next year then I am switching sides in regards to him. For starters neither should be playing next year, both were unwanted by their previous clubs 2 years ago, both were signed for 2018, they have both got another year they were not expecting in 2019.
We surely are not just letting these pair get their game numbers up, Pascoe just said Reynolds is not going anywhere, then bloody well play him, and the others who are not going anywhere as well need to be in the shop window or earning their coin

If re-signing Marshall on buttons persuades Reynolds on 800k to look elsewhere I'll be the first to call Pascoe a genius.

Farah and Marshall are doing nothing for our future development, Liddle is getting bugger all game time and Grub is playing reggies, these pair have been picked in the run on side every week they have been fit, and that can not continue in 2020 if we want to move forward.
We have the QLD U/18 hooker for next year, they need to sign Liddle and these 2 will be our hookers, I am sure they can get a half from Canterbury Cup or QLD Cup to cover an injury to Grub next year, it is time to let go of the old, and I mean old boys brigade and move forward

If they really want to help, they should get out on the turps with Reynolds, Packer, Matulino, Mbye and anyone else on a long term high value contract, pick up a few women, go back to a hotel, film them in compromising positions and post it on social media.

That way we could get rid of the lot of them without paying any freight & give Madge an Ivan sized checkbook to recruit with.

Just read top 10 list with top NRL $ earners listed:=

Daly Cherry-Evans ($1.3 million) would not pay anywhere near that
Cameron Smith ($1.1 million) worth every cent
Roger Tuivasa-Sheck ($1.1 million) we dodged a BIG bullet there
Cooper Cronk ($1.05 million) last year yes .... this year NO
Sam Burgess ($1 million) worth every cent
Kieran Foran ($1 million) WOW money for the jam
James Tedesco ($1 million) worth more
Mitchell Pearce ($1 million) not really
Ash Taylor ($1 million) WOW money for the jam
Jason Taumololo ($950,000) worth every cent
Also Nathan Cleary is somewhere near that figure also

Tedesco is on 1.5 million
A mates brother in law use to be close to the head coach and he said Teddy is on 1.5 with 500k of that in TPA’s

Yeh I heard as much when he left, I heard we offered $1.1m and he was getting $1.4m

 

[hsvjones]

@851 Yet the Rooster will state he is on 800k for Salary cap reasons. NRL will do the norm and turn a blind eye.

That can't be right. NRL made the TPA figures public last year and the roosters total number was around $200k only

[Jock Koss]

I hate it HSV, so damn clear and yet backpocket journo's of the NRL golden boys cannot be touched and are always pushing the line out about "how astute the Roosters are with cap management"

The last 2 games have proven the next crop of players need speed this team needs speed !

 

[weststigerman]

@The_Patriot yep, need big strong middle players above everything else. Players like Liddle and Brooks become far more effective when the middle are not getting belted.
