Israel Folau = Josh Morris to us ?????

[possm]

No he didn't, he just believes with that side we only need 12 players. More room for our back line to work their magic.

Your right; my mistake. I'll fix it now.

Matulino is your big man off contract if you're looking for one. Personally I'd be inclined to send JDB to the gym for months on end until he has 6 or 7 kilo more muscle on him. He runs without fear and has an offload, what more do you need?

Oh, and chicks dig him so our crowd numbers will be better when he plays.

I'm pretty sure Matulino is contracted at the Warriors until the end of 2015. The rumor linking him to the Dragons was on twitter, Thus having no substance. Matulino himself has been quoted in the NZ press saying he will honor his contract. I'd personally prefer the Dragons to have a major crack at Fafita who's off contract with the Scum at the end of 2014.

With growing speculation that dessies dog's are prepared to let Ben bara go to a Queensland club so they have salary cap money to sign Issy it now looks less likely they will realese Josh Morris for the 2014 season.

At best the dragons may jag him for 2015. What worries me is that Dessies dog's rate Morris very highly and they will be doing everything in their power to keep him a bulldog for the rest of his career. ..

Does Doust have the necessary negotiation skills know how gift of the gab money to get Josh to the dragons? ???????

For some reason it's hard to compete against the Dogs when it comes to 'salary cap management'. Has always been thus.
Bear in mind that Schubert's new boss will be a fellow named Greenberg.

 

[hardbaby]

I don't want a centre. I want a prop and a half. JMoz just muddies the water.

 

[Steelman]

Hard baby need need to relax Doust & Young are in the market for a half and an other forward.

The signing of Morris if it happens at all will be cream on the cake. The hard part will be trying to snatch Josh from Dessies dogs as it seems he is now a priority over Ben Barba...

There is no doubt the dragons have the cash$$$$$$

Who knew that all the Dogs woes that we enjoyed earlier in the year would come back to bite us!

Barba was/is the Messiah, they arent the same side without him, but Folau a quality player too...

Apparently Barba isn't on much money so they will need to do much more than just release him if the money Folau is reported to want is correct. Kasiano will be up for an upgrade as well. Then there is Inu (who I personally don't rate). I'm hopeful the Dragons can get either J. Morris or Folau.

Don't think we will get either players. I would be surprised if josh ever comes back and if he did it would be towards the end of his career when his best footy is behind him. Folau.....just can't see it happening either

very true they will need to let go of 2 big names to get folau. we r a big chance.

I realize folau is good but is he worth josh + another big name player.

 

[hardbaby]

I reckon if they let JMoz go they could squeeze Folau in. Agree that Barba isn't on as much money as he is worth and possibly isn't the solution. They have so many contracts to upgrade. Really hard to tell where the Dogs are as regards salary cap.

josh 450 barba 250 and they are still short.

That's true. Getting Morris back may seem fitting or natural but if it isn't from 2014, better to go after another quality centre IMO. Folau may be worth 750k if the top play-makers are on 1mil but not more than that. Folau is still only 22 or 23, isn't he?

 

[hardbaby]

Nah man. The cap has increased dramatically and will continue to do so. Then there are third party payments, back loaded contracts etc. If the Dogs released both those guys they would make it easy.

out of the salary cap it would be 750 and third party the rest, he wants alot of money and he will get it.

this might be hard to believe, but the Roosters are emerging as the sneaky favourites to sign Folau ( the Peter Sullivan factor is in their favour )

 

[FlameThrower]

I think we are clutching at straws...lots of moving parts to get this one to work....

I find that very hard to believe.

Only way this happens is if SBW goes back to yawnion.
