Haha true that
May was used poorly at times this year but nonetheless displayed his worth. Even at centre he was only really exposed in the GF. He was pretty solid in the prelim. He's still costing the club a pittance but I doubt that situation will continue ad infinitum. While he's dirt cheap there's not much point getting rid of him. He'd buy you a third to a quarter of a Stephen Crichton and I know what I believe is better value.
Old Panther is now trending in The Kennel
This is what happens living under the Storm and Roosters dictatorship. The oppressed masses rise up!!!
My post on there for anyone wanting to know;
"Hi everyone just wanted to come across and say hi since there's a lit of news between our club's recently for obvious reasons. Seems you guys are the current easy target for signing rumours to sell articles. Not sure how closely everyone looks at other teams rosters so a few specifics which might help when all the clickbait from the journos is coming out.
Burton is the big one obviously and you guys are a fair chance to sign him. He'd get a shot at starting half on reasonable money. If he stays there's no chance he pushes Luai out for the 6 and Ivan wants to turn him into a ball playing forward either at lock or second row with a transition through centre the most likely option. Will also get less to stay at Panthers for obvious reasons.
Lenui is very unlikely. Panthers moved on Tamou and Blore to the Tigers and you guys got Hetherington for the purpose of Lenui being our next prop ready to be brought in to the starting 17 with 2020 being a development year of sorts. He is very highly regarded by the club and you'd have to pay pretty decent overs to get him.
Crichton will be signed after origin camp is over. Panthers are prepared to pay whatever is necessary though some of us as fans don't necessarily agree with that. As fans of the sport we've all had players hold our cap to ransom and dogs fans know that pain from recent history.
I am surprised there's been no mention of Naden. He'll be the odd one out IF you don't get Burton and already seems a little unpopular with Ivan having been dropped post Covid break then for the Preliminary/Grand finals. Though maybe no one wants a centre/wing that bad.
Interesting reading through here as if there's animosity between clubs. I guess the sport is very much based on tribalism but outside us as fans having players we want to stay or go I have no issue with Barrett and any players going to the dogs. So far everything has been done with respect and the club itself deserves to make improvements for the fans and members. A strong comp is better for everyone than the typical 2 or 3 good teams every year.
All the best."
I can’t get the kernel is there some secret hand shake to get in there lol
Reserve for reserve grade.

I have a feeling this is one signing that may come back to bite us hard.
