English test back-rower John Bateman to the Raiders for two years, with a third in his favour.

It's one of the strangest deals I've ever seen - he's already agreed to terms to return to Wigan after his time at Canberra ends on a three year deal. I rate the guy, but I hope we aren't just paying for him to have a holiday.

Yup

That sound is the bottom of the barrel being scraped.

Of course, we can't afford the proper implements with which to scrape a barrel so Trent is doing it with a particularly large stick he found out on the Wakehurst Parkway.

Really disappointed to lose him. Local junior and a fan favourite. Wish him all the best

Pretty healthy competition at Manly for the #6. Elgey and Hodkinson... at many reserve grade clubs BOTH of these guys would be in the team.

Of course old greedy guts is going around again.

 

[Russell Coight]

Selfish as they come. I'd laugh if it massively backfired and they ended up losing a promising youngster or two
