[callmack1]

Jaydn Su'A is rumoured to have started contract discussions with Souths and things are apparently looking positive.

Dobbo talking on brisbane radio, broncos getting rid of milf and croft, reynolds to partner dearden in halves,they want gagai,they want sua. And they are trying to pinch a fullback.
So here we are with 3 of our best gone, good luck demitriou

I want to date Jennifer Hawkins, doesn't mean she's leaving her husband.

 

[big hit!]

Yeah I don't know WTF he's on about.

Arguing keep AJ has led to this is laughable, while ignoring the cripples we've signed like Milne, and Burns?

How much do you think these blokes are getting paid?

Then blaming the fans when its the front office who actually make the decisions???

What’s the point of a petition and emailing the club then?

And all this coming from someone posting in this same thread last week that putting rookies in the halves would kill the club???

WTF?

I think you need a HIA, Botany. I wrote nothing of the sort and have faith in whatever the club is planning for the future.

 

[big hit!]

I don't have a problem with that idea, my issue is that he created a fake post and attributed it to me (although he has now changed it after getting called out on it).

What fake post? Look at the post you quoted mate.

 

[Jim Rockford]

What fake post? Look at the post you quoted mate.

You had already changed it when I replied. You can deny it all you like but we both know you did it.

Since you know so much, how much is AJ getting Mr.Smart Guy?
Hint: slightly more than Burns, Milne, almost half of Knight's money.
Gee, $350K has bankrupted the club and blew the salary cap out of the water.

Weshould have put Jaxson Paulo on the wing instead of AJ! Why didn't the club think of that???

You second statement is moronic. Don't make complaints, because your complaints might make me do something, and if it doesn't work out, I'm not taking the blame because your complaints made me do it. LAUGHABLE.

If you have Faith in the club, does that include signing AJ? Offering Reynolds another year? Signing Milne? Giving Knight more than 500K per year? Allowing Suaali to walk and sign a contract with another club that was prepared to meet his terms when we weren't?

I'll be fascinated to hear your explanation of how signing AJ has lead to Suaali walking, and how that has "alerted every other f**ker as to who Souths have coming through."
Certainly it couldn't be that the Jersey Flegg side were recent premiers, nah it couldn't be that......

Apparently Souths will sign Benji for 1 more year if Reynolds walks

Are you openly telling the forum you know how much each player is paid? I highly doubt it.

 

[Souths Till I Die]

This was a rumour that was being spread ages ago.

 

[Souths Till I Die]

Cronulla also interested in Reynolds.

All this has been previously reported in the media and the Telegraph list of players salary last year. Its not hard to find

It was again said by Weidler on 2KY this morning that Cowboys offered AJ $1mil for 3 years but Souths resigned AJ. The Bulldogs offered him more. Souths would have offered him ball park figures.

Weidler even said "I know AJ is not on a lot of money, same with Mansour....."

 

[BotanyBorn&Bred]

I am trying to post the links but this website is converting to no spam. Here are some of the links for last year's player salaries. The Telegraph links are on firewall. Those still under contract, without having negotiated a new contract can probably be assumed they are on similar money for this year, minus a reduction in the overall cap due to COVID as negotiated last year with the RLPA:

Also see the Kennel (you can google it - The Kennel, NRL player salaries 2020) but this site won't let me post the link

This is the dumbest thing i have heard , brooks is on 900k, if we cant afford reynolds how can we afford brooks, needless to say he is as useless as a 2bob watch, he is in the same catagory as milf, who should be on 300k not 1m a year, the cowboys can have him.

 

[Jim Rockford]

Brooks? Talk about a lopsided swap. Brooks isn't 1/10th the player Reyno is. Besides, I thought we were offloading Reyno to bring one of our young guys up. Seems the story about what is happening is a little flexible.

 

[verticalsmile]

Its a great swap

 

[BotanyBorn&Bred]

From the Telegraph list, viewable if you pay, or from the Kennel list, these are the 2020 figures for Souths players who made the top 100:
Latrell 800K
Damien 800K
Adam 760K
Cody 700K
Cameron 700K
Dane 650K
James Roberts 550K

2021
Jai 800K
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jai_Arrow

Latrell 875K

This is Mark geyer giving his opinion.

It has no basis in fact.

I should have checked closer. If I knew it was MG I would have dismissed it out of hand.

 

[BotanyBorn&Bred]

What a cluster! A good club never lets this shit play out in the open.

Hanging onto AJ has led us down this path - and alerted every other f**ker as to who Souths have coming through. They'll come knocking eventually, like they did with Suaalii.

Well done Souths fans.

So if, as Weidler said today, the Cowboys were willing to offer AJ $1mil for 3 years, and, as this article says, AJ sacrificed up to 100K to stay with Souths, then its obvious the ball park figure for AJ is around 250K.

As I posted earlier with referenced links, Adam is listed as getting 760K this season.

Tell us again, how did signing AJ affect our ability to keep Reyno?
