I believe we haven't paid the transfer fee as yet... And I dare say we won't be either!

I'm also 99% sure that we haven't paid the transfer fee.


Also: not happy to be wrong!! It's $250k we're talking about

 

[Stagger eel]

what about the papalii sign on bonus? did we get that back?

Not aware of that..

How do you know oldman?

 

[The Elephant In The room]

Not aware of that..

Not aware if we paid a signing bonus, or not aware if we got it back if we paid one?

 

[84 Baby]

I would think that one side or the other would have brought it up in the election if it had been paid and not recovered

Either, Iether....

How do you know that I know?

I'm not sure, although you sounded pretty sure.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Matt prior had a good game tonight.

Will be a big improvement on what we have if he actually comes

 

[oldmancraigy]

I'm not sure, although you sounded pretty sure.

Maybe I do know?

I just enjoyed answering you with the kind of question you ask of others. I enjoyed it...

Welcome home Justin.

 

[Parraletic]

Great news!

 

[Utey]

Yep, this is a good signing. Hopefully Prior jumps aboard the rebuilding train.

 

[The Elephant In The room]

Great news!

A decent enough young player, but it's a sign of where we are as a club when we are all excited about a fringe first grader.

Hopefully this is part of the plan to add depth, we currently have around 8/10 NRL standard players, followed by young potentially good locals and no layers below to add competition or depth.

The clear out was needed and importantly additions to compliment our juniors, good signs if we continue to sign good standard guys, would obviously be better if they were all Will Hopoate , but there aren't that many changing clubs.

 

[Etu Uaisele]

Norths are going to struggle next year .

Getting Parra Pete back from the Raiders will be challenging.
Many on here won't be happy about it.
Continue the bitching - everything is back to normal transmission.

What if we all chip in and pay his transfer fee? And give him some special dispensations - like maybe he's allowed to say merkin or something?

 

[EelsFan05]

I like parra pete far more as a Raider supporter.

 

[Casper The Ghost]

Agreed.
I've always liked the bloke - who cares if he is full of himself - aren't we all?
Just shed away our skin to witness how full of ourselves we are beneath it!
I reckon Parra Pete at the front of Parra Stadium selling hotdogs or at least doing a game day shuttle taxi or bus service to and fro railway station/taxi-rank would be the go.
You'd never get bored with Pete driving while spinning yarn after yarn after yarn.
He'd be worth the transfer fee - I'll chip in to get him back from the green vomit.
