Confirmed Signings

[Souths Till I Die]

The big question here is if? Sam has done it consistently for seasons where as Chrichton has had 3/4 of a good season. How do we know Chrichton will not end up like a Tony Williams/Dave Taylor 1 season wonder then once got a big contract become bog standard average?

In the Gillett mould, but let’s pay him double what Gillett gets lol..

If that is Souffs' best line up I think the Knights probably have a better 17. That is seriously crook. I don't even know who some of those merkins are lol

Probably? Try definitely

GI
AJ
Gagai
Hunt
Jennings/Graham
Cody
AR
Tom
Cook
Turner
Sam
Fuimaono
Murray

Sutton
Crichton
George
Musgrove

Start Sam in the back row and then bring Angus on next year after 20-25mins allowing Sam to move back to middle...

Next season we have a strong back row and Damien Cook will get better...

Gagai adds strike out wide....

Cody will be more settled at 6 rather than shifting to fullback...

Don't expect finals footy but stranger things have happened...... throw the ball around more and tighten the defence a bit and you never know...

Where is your super signing Wobbie? Doesnt he have a year to go?

Yep good question.

And the very simple straight forward answer is, Souffs dont get to find out the answer. Roosters do.

Well done Richo.

I have the knights finishing above souths but I think saying definitely better is a bit much. A lot of Knights fans have gotten awfully cocky for a team that’s won 3 wooden spoons in a row. Personally I think after cowboys/storm/roosters there isn’t a huge amount between the next 13.

Thank you so much for your continued interest in The Pride of the League.....

 

[big hit!]

not worth the $1m per season to find out

 

[Valheru]

Story is that we could have matched the Roosters offer but backed away because Richo thought it was overs. We offered what we were comfortable paying for potential and the Roosters offer dwarfed it.

He reckons $1M is rubbish and it is more like $700k which is only slightly more than souths offered.

700k and 30 games of golf a year

That article is the best laugh I've had for a while! Lol!

Of course you don't believe the figure presented by Nick. What would the guy who actually offered the contract know?

I'm not by any means saying it is accurate, I wouldn't have a clue but it has more merit than the $1M souths are reporting which they have clearly made up.

 

[Valheru]

700k and 30 games of golf a year

I would be interested to know which golf course they are playing at?

That would cost him like $1000... max

He makes it seem so simple, and makes some other clubs look so dumb. Especially when he says that the cap has increased by a couple million, and yet other clubs are still struggling to do simple maths.

The only thing that one should question with politis, is why he keeps involving himself with such an incompetent organisation as the NRL.

Please.......... as if we can believe all that.......

He's a good politician I'll give him that.....

Hahahaha the stories are widely known (and true) aren't they

 

[Vic Mackey]

lol ‘we plan 5 years ahead.’ You literally just sacked your captain and highest serving player who you had under contract

I wonder who they’ve already planned to out for a ‘failed drugs test’ over the next 5 years

For such a professionally run organization it must be embarrassing that you’ve only won 2 Premierships in the past 42 years.

 

[Vic Mackey]

I’ve said it on here before. About 10 years ago I was on the beers with Brett Kimmorely who gave a very eye opening account of his negotiations with the Roosters when he was leaving the Storm.
