Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and General Drivel XV

[Twizzle]

So now the NRL have money to throw at Izzy.

Bit f**king late now.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Brendan Santi - tigers

Effective immediately

Sounds like a smart enough move. We paying any freight do you know?

 

[Stagger eel]

No idea...

But whatever we fork out it will obviously be included in our cap, I also heard recently that the freight that we're paying Ryan, Blair and Mullaney is in our 2nd tier cap and that's the reason why we're struggling in that area..

 

[eel01s]

Ahh, that makes sense. Hopefully we are all clear next year.

 

[Gronk]

Gee Santi turned out to be an anti-climax.

Perhaps the game has changed so quickly that a smallish workhorse is less desirable over a ball playing lock and edge runners.

I thought if they were on second contracts they would only affect our cap if they play nrl , thus those haven't played nrl for us this year. Bloody cap to confusing.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Wonder if Santi was the rumoured play not happy with the club as he wasn't getting a go?

Anyhow this is his 3rd club change not a good look for a young player

 

[EelsFan05]

That's a shock about Santi considering the wraps on him. Our cap must be in absolute disarray.

Brendan Santi - tigers

Effective immediately

what the?

he's been at our club for five minutes. did he get homesick and want to go back to be closer to his family?

 

[I bleed blue & gold]

Well, that's weird.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Cap issues may have assisted but we have quite a few prospects in the back row so he would have struggled to get a go

 

[Avenger]

Santi was coming off the bench for Wenty and was originally signed for the top 25. I say ability/attitude had more to do with it.

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

So we've freed a Top 25 spot? Meaning we can bump someone up for the rest of the year and ease a bit of pressure on the 2nd Tier Cap?

 

[natheel]

Bring up junior paulo

 

[eel01s]

or Semi

 

[Bigfella]

Yes I'd like to see semi get a run in firsts

 

[Eels Dude]

Think he means adding to the top 25, if that's possible as discussed.

Was wondering what happened to Santi as he hasn't been playing for Wenty nor named in any injury reports. Sounds odd though since he's only been here a little while.

 

[Noise]

Yes I'd like to see semi get a run in firsts

It's an outrage he hasn't had a go yet!

 

[hineyrulz]

Junior Paulo come on down!!!

Monday night at the earliest please.

 

[Gronk]

Junior Paulo come on down!!!

Monday night at the earliest please.

I said this the other day - if he is as good as some here pump him to be, how come two nuffies bumped him off the bench for the Samoa v Fiji test ?
