Rumours and Stuff

If you think Peats is worth cap space and a spot in the top squad you have NFI....

Origin experience, only 31 next year. Of course he's good enough for the top 30. Worth more than minimum salary too. He's absolutely a good signing at the right price.

So is Hayne let's sign him.....

There is a reason he is not signed up yet for next season.

Did he get let off the alleged rape charge?

Hayne was our most dangerous back in 2018. The reason we f**ked him off is because of his effect on morale and unity.

Dozens of players are unsigned for next season. Teams like to get their top 17 and minimum salary players sorted before they try to fit the rest under the cap.

Think it was the telegraph nrl podcast where they mentioned it’s bit of a buyers market are the moment with NRL players especially the fringe ones as the super league isnt the best option with COVID 19 (especially players with young family’s). So there is an additionally 20-30 players available. They said something like players who may get $250k can only hope for $150k....

Yes was mobbs I think that said that. Maybe Carryanis. Good podcast, even Buzz is good value. Puts a bit of shit on himself.

That'll certainly affect the price of some players, but ultimately the clubs have to spend a certain proportion of their salary cap. So, it's got to go to someone.

And you dont think Peats would possibly provide similar?

I don’t think its stopping clubs spending their cap, just means clubs are better players for less. For example, we want a back up hooker and only want to spend $150k, peats may be willing to take that $150k from us instead of $250k overseas. Thus getting a better back up but with the same budget.

Yeh, that makes sense I guess.

If I didn’t know any better, I’d say someone has been unblocked on Twitter.

We re-sign him but for what came up at the end of 2018. It is pure speculation that he was a negative influence on morale. It doesn't make any sense since everyone likes him.

You think Peats would up the Moral

Stop looking at the past. The club needs to move in a different direction Peats is not it.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I don't think he's that type of personality. He's a low talent, high effort type of player, the complete opposite of Hayne.

Peatsy doesn't forgive.

I'm not sure that everyone does. But I've also known quite a few dudes who were likeable but not good team members.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I don't think he would make much difference either way. But he's definitely at NRL backup standard, which is what we need, and he has plenty of experience too, which is always useful in the group.

Stop looking at the past. The club needs to move in a different direction Peats is not it.

This makes zero sense.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Peatsy doesn't forgive.

Obvs you didn't pay him his f**ken money.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

As a backup at the right price he's OK. As a bench hooker not so sure. The footy people here would know better. Is there a player that can do both? At the right price?

I'd rather take a gamble on Nathaniel Roache than going back to the future with Peats.
