I'd be chewing on that one for a while. No rush

 

[tigerballs]

Here's a comparison, Joey Leilua whom hasn't been a good buy to date would be on $550k or more?

Who would agree that JAC is a far superior player and deserves to be renumerated at a higher rate?

Absolutely. JAC is an elite player. Joey Leilua isn’t.

Nofo is top 4 in tries, line breaks and tackle breaks, the Fox isn't top 10.

They better not spend more than $300k on him and give him 2 years maximum

 

[hsvjones]

if we dont pay him someone else will, we need something if he works at fullback we will have speed to burn. if he doesnt he is still an excellent winger.
worth the gamble.

I agree... When you are a club like us we need to take a gamble and this is one I would take.. If he fails at FB he can fall back to winger where he currently plays at SOO and for his country... Its like David F at Titans sometimes you need to start somewhere.

What chance do you actually think this could happen - I say about 20%

I don’t care I’d swap Nofo for Fox any day of the week.

For what, less tries, line breaks and tackle breaks? On more money? He's a good player, no doubt, but he's not what the Tigers need.

We don't need an origin class player?

Ha, he's not origin class. He's played origin but he's not origin class. That's why i phrased it that way.

He’s scored 11 tries this year and Addo Carr is on 10. I’d like to have money on Addo Carr scoring more by the end of the year.

Over their careers, Addo Carr has scored 10 more tries than Nofo and has played in 40 less games. He’s also one of the fastest players in the game and is a current NSW and Australian rep player. He’d be our most dangerous back by a long way imo.

We definately need the Fox, he ticks a number of boxes that make him an astute buy, he has experience, he has outstanding speed, he is elusive, his defence is good, he supported the Tigers, he played fullback in under 20's at Cronulla, and we could use him at wing or fullback. If we stay with AD at fullback, that is fine , at least we have a backup for fullback. I would not want to swap him for anyone. Maybe we could loan them a player for one year.

Nofo Also let’s a try in per game for not staying on his wing how many tried does JAC let in?

We should get forwards who can get the meters and w winger that can stay on his wing.

Would 100% have him, but definitely not at the expense of Nofo. He's a real club man, which you can't buy, and luckily enough is actually somewhat good! Been one of our best this year.

Sorry Avo, my point is we don't need a winger nearly as much as we need two halves, a bid angry prop and a fullback. The fox wouldn't be dangerous because he wouldn't get good ball. He's scored 10 more tries than Nofo because he's been getting the ball from Slater, Munster, Chambers, Scott etc.

I agree we need halves and a forward badly. I still like AD, I think he’s a class player and would make a good 5/8 too.

He’s having a good season but he has too many deficiencies to be an elite player. I don’t really care too much about the club man stuff, I’d rather have blokes that know how to win.

AD will end up in the centres and smash it. Good luck dealing with him close to the line, 3 passes wide and a winger outside him.
