    They are not the only players off contract, at our club or any other.

    If we were as dumb as you say then every player would have a PO, since according to you there is no cost.

    Have we lost? There is no evidence the options have hurt us. How many players activated their options ahead of the dismal 2024 season? As for the future options we are all whinging about, the seasons they will affect us in haven't happened yet.

    It's as if we were struggling to fit merkins under the cap and offering them player options instead of more money. If we panicked, wouldn't we have just offered them more money to stay?

    OT: Current Affairs and Politics

    One parallel is that men and women still use segregated public bathrooms. Is that intolerance? If men are such a threat to women, how do we know they are no longer a threat just because they have transitioned?

    That's what emojis are for ffs. So we don't need to scroll through pages of merkins saying "I agree!"

    But will the merkins learn from this and just make sure there's 100 next time? They have no shame, so what's stopping them just trying again?

    If they are never activated then they cost the club nothing. Meanwhile the player lost whatever cash he agreed to forfeit in exchange for accepting the PO. It's an insurance policy sold by the club to the player. Plenty of businesses rip merkins off by selling them insurance.

    No it sounds like we are offering an extension, as we always were going to, and the media is reporting it as an attempt to rewrite the contract. If the player wanted the clauses in the first place why would he just agree to get rid of them now? In exchange for the PO he will want money, which is...

    Are you talking about the one at Avalon?

    And yet, most of the merkins didn't want one. Maybe they would've had to give up some money in exchange?

    Corey Norman usually looked pretty f**ken happy too.

    OT: Association Football

    The group table is cray cray. Japan is first with five wins, then the team with the next most wins is last placed China, with two wins (no draws). The four countries in between all have one win and a stack of draws.

    Squad succession

    Everything on the internet might be wrong. You'll be okay.

    Not yet but potentially. He's pretty good, and just had a breakout season. He went better than Utoikamanu ever has, and he's only a year older. If he can consistently play like he did this year he might be worth $700k.

    Pretty common after a failed season. The Tigers seem to turn the top of their roster over every year ffs
