The club had to release JH from the final year of his contract, would be sensible to believe it was on an undertaking to complete the contract should he return

By the way. Both JH and Scott Seward confirmed that any eeturn would be to the Eels at the press conference, and Seward seems to be the sort of person that knows what he says. Trusting his manager to say something that could mean less cash, not likely

Well that guy really took the Foran rumours to heart. What an embarrassing performance that was.

Anyway, FORAN >> EELS

Awaits next challenger to enter the arena.

Aidan Sezer to Manly rumour keeps getting hotter and hotter on the Gold Coast

This bloke could be anything with the top notch players around him. If its true, then Manly would be laughing, pick him up for $300k and get a couple of forwards like Tom Burgess and Matulino with Foran's leftovers. Great result for them if it happens...

How much do you think Forans on?Tom Burgess and Matulino would be minimum $400,000 each and Sezer would probably get $400,000 plus as well given the dearth of decent halves on the open market.

As with Hayne, it depends as much on what everyone else is doing. Potentially you could lose a $700k player and buy nobody if the young guns are due a pay rise. Or if other players retire too, it frees up a fortune. Who knows.

There are never too many halves on the market, there aren't too many good ones in the game. Some decent ones looking for new deals in 2016 - DCE, Foran, Maloney and depending on what the dogs do, Hodkinson. Add Sezer into the mix too I guess. Shit, even sandow might be available haha. Considering the broncos, Souths, cows, probably tigers, probably knights, and Penrith aren't shopping for halves, there are only 10 clubs looking and at least 5 decent (even rep quality) halves available. That's as good as it is ever going to get for the buyers.

Foran may go to Eels, put to pay what is rumoured 1 mil + is way overs, he is very good but he's no Thurston.

i think he is worth that type of coin. Obviously depends how much is under the cap and how much is 3rd party payments. But i'd say he's worth about700-800k under the cap. He's the one that i think Manly should keep out of him and DCE just look at the four nations Foran was huge for NZ while DCE went missing.

You could have Foran at 6 and let DCE go and pick up Sezer to partner Foran and that'd be a great combination

I don't see him coming back to RL though. RU would be my bet

Most like scenario is DCE and Foran gone with Sezer coming to Manly. Sezer is alright but not even close to DCE and Foran.

Manly in big trouble. They need to convince DCE and Foran to stay for the rest of this decade. Without them there they've got a Cronullaesque future.

i can't see them losing both. and even if they do Manly will re-build and re-build well. They're a club that always has been able to sort their shit out on the field easily.

So, according to your sources, which are usually dynamite, are they both staying or going? Also, you think its either a famine or a feast do you? They both leave or stay, together? Manly can't keep say one of them?:sarcasm:

You seem to be a deep thinker, how would the NRL look if there was no team from the bridge to the central coast? A Cronulla feel perhaps?:crazy:
