Rumours and Stuff

Except when he is one of 11 kids.....and the future main breadwinner for the family. Of course he is going to try and get the most he can! Daresay in his situation money is more important than loyalty!

And don't blame him either!

When you've got dependents, money is loyalty.

Maybe he's the one waiting because it's a seller's market.

Cooper Clarke re-signs until 2029

Melbourne Storm has today announced the re-signing of emerging prop Cooper Clarke.

So an NFL team will release a starter quality QB to a rival just because their rival's QB got injured? Why would they do that? What's in it for them? Who's going to play QB for them after they let their starter leave? These aren't hypothetical questions; I don't follow the NFL.

No - I think u misunderstood. Basically say a player gets a serious injury u can put them on injured reserve which then allows u to sign another player. Still counts against the cap I think but it essentially alllows u to free up a roster spot.

This Guymer re-signing drew the king troll in like a moth to a streetlight in the dead of night.

Panthers pump out To'o Jenkins McLean.. We have Penisini!

Let be honest. There back ups in cup are both better. Tago and J.Mclean. Shows where we are at as a club.

What we have a Tago and Sam Loizou dont forget Alomaddine

Mate they have juniors also I their cup side Edgar Liddard... both bound to play in the NRL.

Does the signing of the Charlie the hitman Guymer excited you?

MON and Jimmy the mower man are chuffed at the key re-signing. They probably gave him a10 year deal with options in his favour

The only player that looks like they will make it is tuivati.

Him and TDS are the only ones who look like they will play Origin. Juniors don’t need to be that good to add value to the squad.

If you aren’t playing first grade before you turn 20 you are basically cooked. Won’t be a “good” player.

This is only (generally) true for outside backs. Forwards and halves only need to be playing reserve grade by 20 to show promise.

We overrate our juniors. If they were good they would be in first grade. It’s not like our team is stacked with stars so these young guns can’t get a run. The fact is they just aren’t that good.

They aren’t future stars but most teams are struggling to keep 17 first graders on the books these days, so anyone who might become a genuine NRL player is useful. Unless the merkin wants overs to stay. And if they do, what’s the point of bringing them through?

I reckon the re-signing of Guymer indicates that we will not take the second year option for JDB.

I wonder if JDB has a renewal trigger based on number of appearances.

I’m not super confident anyone will progress. I’m hoping they do though.

im not even talking stars, im talking Sean Russell level players. Just those that can play and not be totally crap.
Anyway time will tell.

Thank f**k for that.

 

[Avenger]

Thank f**k for that.

We should do the same with Paulo and the Penisini brothers.

An aggressive recruitment team would now be looking at Galvin’s manager ( Isaac Moses) and suggesting it would be good for the player to move to another club to actually play his best position, 5/8. Not tempting fate, doubt that’s in the thought process of our gurus.

oh my god YES!!!!!!!

Please make this happen

 

[Avenger]

oh my god YES!!!!!!!

Why mate? You want us to f**k up or do you think he’d be better with us?

 

[eels_fan]

Blaize looks a bargain for 500k now. WE DONT PAY OVERS

If we knew Brown was going, Blaize would have stayed

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Still very average, looks like the weak link in the team

Rather we kept Sanders

Yep. Lorenzo Talataina would look great in that team.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Whats that got to do with Ryda being overweight and slow?

Do you think he’s slow? You need to watch more BarTV.

TDS is not playing origin
