Difference is Riccio isn't a headline hunter like Buzz....silence is golden on this one. The fact Sifa is his cousin and he's tight with Ronnie and Britt would have to be in our favour. The that he's limited to Sydney clubs is also a big plus. Rules out the big back ended contracts that the Dolphins and other clubs may throw at him. It seems that it's likely a decision will be made in the off-season is a positive as I see the Goons improving under Flanno next year.

They might improve, but I don't think they will turn the table upside down.

journalistic integrity ? These days it is whatever you want to make it . Publishing True ,verifiable facts doesnt seem to have much to do with it , on sports, business, ,social , domestic or international political forums. The right to your own personal opinion trumps all that!

Do you have an editor who can help you with basic punctuation?

If AFB goes to the Dragons, who he either bailed on or was punted from previously, then it was for the best. As anyone taking the cash to toil away with drags instead of having a bloody good shot at doing something solid with the sharks, isn’t really that serious.
No disrespect to the dragons either, we’ve been in there position before and it’s just how it is, right on Nigel Vagana.

They sacked him for DV when he was there, I don't think he played a first grade game for them though.

My understanding to the situation now is if we match the Dragons offer we will get him across the line. A decision from us will be made shortly as to whether we will match and then negotiate with the Warriors.

News ltd reporting that Flanno wants an answer this week re AFB, I am guessing as after Dearden as well want to know how much they have to spend.
This could play into our hands

Does anyone actually believe the line of "making a decision on making an offer" or working out what we want to pay? It has been used for 3-4 weeks now. It is the total opposite of the ploy from Flanno and the dragons who are desperate.

Because AFB has indicated he'll stay in the ditch for one more year there's no urgency on his manager's part. Goons are desperate as were the Tigers hence deadlines so they can pursue plan B. Very fortunate that the interstate clubs aren't part of the circus imo. Happy to sit back and see how this pans out.

Wasn't meant to offend you Buzz. I guess that same loyalty that you have to the Sharks was replicated by Fifita in the FKL scenario. Wasn't like he ran on the field with a banner ffs. How's Kenty traveling in his time of need? If it was a footballer going through the same unfortunate situation it would be front and back page news. Cause he's a colleague..... Crickets. Nothing personal Buzz...I think most journalists are hypocrites.
