Why don't we get rid of Lowrie??

Who'd want him ?

 

[Stagger eel]

because he's under contract and you need someone out there to be able to pay out his contract to get any sort of benefit from him leaving.

El Diablo, I have to ask, you claim today that:-

1) he still hasn't signed so you can still live in hope if you wish too
+ Yet you have absolutely no source, or knowledge if this is the case - or to back up your theory - and don't copy articles written yesterday or the day before. Last night Manly registered contracts - YOU look for the article on Chris Bailey etc if you want.

there is a source. it was in this post just above it and that article is dated June 11. That's TODAY. http://forums.leagueunlimited.com/showthread.php?p=4287535#post4287535

2) You wrote: "Well they asked him to take into account all that had been done for him in the past. obviously he showed no gratitude".
+ Again, a straight slander, and 100% opinion. Do you know the facts? If he showed no gratitude would he be in the team right now?

what :?

imo if they've helped him out through the last 4 years or so then he hasn't shown much gratitude by leaving

where would he be if they hadn't done what they stated in one of the Eels' releases?

maybe i'm being a bit harsh

You deleted posts I have written, that had author, date and article in them because they mentioned your precious Parra, and you suggested they were deleted because "I" was making allegations - they were direct cut and pastes from articles mate (also - you wanted the direct link - even though it was obvious they were written by the media).

when?

Then you come out, make stuff up, slander the poor young guy Williams for looking at greener pastures - but that is satisfactory?

what have i made up :?

Come on mate. As a moderator, you should look at things in a balanced way. Not only from Parramatta's perspective. Be a little bit fair, and open to views that differ to your own.

i think you need to backup your claims before going off your tit

and here is the release that made me think he hasn't shown much gratitude

EELS DISAPPOINTED AT WILLIAMS DECISION
4.48pm, Tuesday 27 May 2008


Pirtek Parramatta Eels Chief Executive Denis Fitzgerald has expressed his extreme disappointment at the loss of Toyota Cup player Tony Williams.

The Cabramatta junior, who has featured in every one of the Eels Toyota Cup matches this season, this week agreed to a three year deal with the Manly club.

“We made Tony a very competitive offer which took into account his undoubted potential,” Eels CEO Denis Fitzgerald said.

“Our coaches have recognised and nurtured Tony’s abilities over the past four years as he’s progressed through Parramatta’s development program, which is the benchmark for all NRL clubs.

“Unfortunately Manly have come up with a massive offer, which was about double our offer, and our salary cap prevented us from increasing our bid for a player who is yet to play First Grade.

“We came into 2008 with a number of signing priorities, of which Tony was one, but we were not prepared to sacrifice other players who we also needed to re-sign, including Jarryd Hayne, Krisnan Inu, Ben Smith, Brett Finch, and Matthew and Kris Keating.

“We are disappointed that Tony and his manager have arrived at this decision but we know he will be doing his best for our Toyota Cup team this year and we wish him well for the future.”

meanwhile ole Ryan thinks it's fair for him to call Williams "money Bill"

You dont believe that release do you?

It lists Brett Finch as a priority heading into 2008.

We only moved to resign Finch AFTER Tim Smith left. Some priority. :lol:

Bye Bye......

How can he seriously suggest we made a "Competitive offer" when Manly's was reportedly 3 x as high?

And when we asked him if he'd stay if we offered more he told us to get stuffed?

Our offer was "competitive" but we didn't compete!

LOL Fitzy. Not even your public defender Gronk can sway me on this one.

 

[swoop]

Hey El Diablo. You whinge when a club signs up one of your juniors but your club does the same thing.

It's ok for the Eels to sign juniors from other clubs but it's hands off Eels juniors?:roll:

yeah, we do it all the time lol

even if Parra do take others juniors at least they put back in by developing them

what do Manly do?

no one has yet been able to tell me if there's more than 4 Manly juniors playing first grade regularly in the entire NRL

Should keep your post count up.

You must have to PM Dennis a fair bit then!

Don't try and change the subject? I can assume from your answer that's it's ok for your mob to do it but heaven forbid any club do it to you. You are a hypocrite.

you're the one who changed the subject to begin with

don't like the truth?

can you also name which juniors we've signed up for 150k?

 

[Gronk]

PM Dennis

Oh Christ, imagine that. :crazy: Dennis running the country !

 

[The EELiminator]

You avoid the question once again! I'll make it simple. Is it ok for your mob to sign juniors from another club?

 

[The Colonel]

And when we asked him if he'd stay if we offered more he told us to get stuffed?

Chances are though as I mentioned before he was more pissed off for being worth an upgraded contract with the club because Manly are interested, and questioned why now are they so much more interested then they were in the first place?

It was announced on the Manly website on the 27/05/2008. I assume nothing has changed. read the link:
