Rumours and Stuff

And it's been well reported Scott is on 600k for this season in a back ended deal

you do realise that back ended means he is not on 600K every year ?

Wouldn’t have mind Watmough playing for us in last years finals, even at the level he was at in his last game!!

Would he have been as good as Stumpy Stevens?

 

[lingard]

oh, so its BA's fault that Watmong got injured ?

Of course not. But when you sign a guy who's played over three hundred first grade games - and had been carrying injuries for a number of years - to a four year contract, you could reasonably expect that he might get injured.

I would take Woods if the dogs paid half freight..

 

[Gazzamatta]

I wouldn't take him at nil cost. Sharons been no good since he got shorn but then he wernt too good before either.

I'd take him if I needed a hand chopping firewood or loading a removal truck.

It's called art mate. You really are an uncultured heathen aren't you?

Woods wouId be a great pick up, he is actually going better then RGC and is defensively pretty good (something BA loves):

And as opposed to Klemmer (who wouId also be good), Woods has an offload.

Him and Paulo wouId transform our pack massively, two big boys that can offload!!

I wouId actually offer the dogs a straight swap for Norman (as long as Woods contract isn’t f**ken stupid in years 3 and 4)

Stupid in years 3-4?

It's fking stupid now!

My concern about Woods is that he just seems to peter to a halt, while the defence gets plenty of time to get back onside. Just seems like he has no urgency. Although looks can be deceiving.

Yeah but what is it compared to what the cap is in those years.

The article above states:

“There's no way the Tigers would even consider taking the full freight of Woods' $800,000 contract, however it could come down to how desperate the Bulldogs are in freeing up space and if they are willing to make an Mbye-type contribution to make it happen.”

I reckon the dogs could potentially be interested if contributing $150k or so per year which wouId free up $650k for them. $650k wouId be good value for Woods. Give them Norman to make them bite?

BTW I think I read dogs were contributing $250K for Moses.

My concern with woods is that he plays to have those stats on the board. His off the ball involvement appears low, his decoy runs you know he isn't getting the ball. Wouldn't be a fan of the signing, would much rather someone who may not get the numbers on the sheet like Woods does but has a higjer energy.

His post contact metres seem pretty good:

Better then RGC but obviously you need to work it out per run.

I really reckon he would make a massive difference to our side. Plus his leadership skills wouId be a bonus.
