A lot of your guys are going to be needing contract upgrades aren't they? And yeah rival clubs are right to be annoyed about Burgess being signed. But obviously him coming back from Union and Inglis going to the Broncs are very different things.

In what way is it different?

Oh that's right only one benefits souffs...

Yeah because Sam Burgess was staying in union right up until he signed, many Coaches had the full backing of their boards days before being sacked, Ben Barba was staying at the Dogs.... catching on yet? All the things I just listed had their respective clubs come out saying they were going nowhere etc before they left or got cut loose....

my point is you can't believe everything in the media either. yesterday they said adam reynolds asked for a release and that souths said no. it turns out he didn't ask for a release at all.

The argument is that it benefits the game (as I'm sure you know). I'm not necessarily saying I agree with it, but there is a case for it.

There was a case for Folau to Eels but they weren't allowed to sign him for the sort of money Burgess will be on under the cap.

This is true. What is also true is you can't pick and choose what you take as gospel from the media. You have picked bits that suit you and dismissed the rest. Take it all or leave it all.

Puh-lease

Besides Folau this whole "notional value" argument has only ever come up when it comes to Souths signing players - Inglis and Burgess. Souths want Burgess on the same cap value as when he left but somehow that isn't good enough?

Also Folou had never played for the Eels before. I don't know if that's a consideration but I think it should be.

The race for James Roberts is down to Souths, Broncos, Dragons.

Mark my words, he will be back home where he belongs at Redfern by Wednesday. You can take that to the bank and cash it.
