With Allen moving to allow Souths to pick up Mansour, does that mean Penrith will release Laurie a year early to us?
It’s a shame, but Penrith would be crazy to release Laurie early. I don’t think Ivan has a conscience so no release would seem likely. He’ll get promoted to the top 30 eventually (like Parra did with Uto last year) otherwise can’t play until June. No point having a development player if there is no benefit in developing him. It sucks for Laurie, but he’s not whinging to his credit.With Allen moving to allow Souths to pick up Mansour, does that mean Penrith will release Laurie a year early to us?

Unlikely, as I hear that Ivan is pretty strict on people seeing out their contracts.With Allen moving to allow Souths to pick up Mansour, does that mean Penrith will release Laurie a year early to us?
You pretty much said that in your first post and then the next post agreed with you. Less is more, esp as a vistor. Otherwise its profound and useful to Pest like.It's a coaches job to win footy games and then hopefully a title. Opposition coaches are not out there attempting to be polite of accomadating to opposition teams (or fans)
Laurie won't be coming here.
He's on development, isn't in the 30 and will be useful if the shit hits the fan with injuries late in year.
Unless horse trading takes place, we will not see him until 2022.
Haha f**kup moronOf course not. When Ivan sees a young indigenous kid trying to break into NRL, his first instinct is to block his progression if he doesn't get anything out of it.

Look at Bennett potentially releasing Corey Allen. No upside for Souths, as Latrell could easily go down during the season and they are left without a fullback. Bennett doesn't look at it that way, he sees a kid trying to crack into a full time fullback position and his first instinct is to help him if he can.
f**k McChin Chin is a merkin. Once Laurie comes over I hope we have nothing do do with Penrith for as long as the merkin is head coach
Haha f**kup moron
What's him being indigenous got to do with it?
12 out of 17 for the GF are black you dopey merkin. He also started Luai over Burton in 2020 when most disagreed. You're a straight up butthurt f**kwitPresent a strong argument to the contrary...I'll wait
Because I strongly suspect Ivan to not only be a merkin, but also a racist merkin.
Long bow to draw, but OK. Brad Arthur must also hate islanders...

It’s a bit different for us thoI wish we showed backbone like him and Arthur did when it came to releasing players. Unless Penrith get a player in return what's in it for them? Not every club wants to be the good guys like us. And we all know what happens to good guys, they finish 9th.
