Article linking Lyon with the Raiders from the SMH

[Tidus_Raider]

ATM I think there is alot of dead wood at the club.

Miller > T.Smith
Carney, Campese, Graham > Bulgarelli
Kahler, Weyman > Thompson
Rothery > Martin

Anyone remeber a fellow by the name of Alan Tongue. Solid player that gives his all but do we really need him?

 

[Kris_man]

Mate, I would swap Graham for Lyon in a heartbeat!

:evil: :evil: :evil:
- No-one compares to Phil!!!!!!!!!!

I meant Graham on potential could become a star... so I would keep him whether we got Lyon or not.

 

[Tidus_Raider]

I think Graham and Lyon could form a potent centre/wing combo.

Regarding the question of deferred payments from 2005 to 2006, keep in mind that we will have two one year signings coming off contract hten - Smith and Adamson. That will free up more than enough to pay some kind of bonus to Lyons.

Would love to see this happen.

T_R ... better ring up management

T_R ... better ring up management

They invoice $900 an hour for my meaningless blather over here, so it's either my phone call to manangement of Beau Mundine's match payments...

My God. If all efforts are not being made.......

Release Bulgarelli ffs! We dont need him if we get Lyon! Offer him 100k for the first season and whatever the hell he wants for each subsequent season.

As previously mentioned, we must pray that this is Hawkins being shrewd.

This has the potential to change us from a boring, simple, forward oriented side, to a flashy try-scoring machine.

IBG's lineup has the potential to win a premiership.

 

[The Colonel]

Jamie Lyon's uncle, Mick Smith, said last night there may be some developments regarding the former Test centre next week - as Parramatta chief executive Denis Fitzgerald warned any club wanting to sign him would have to buy out his contract.

Smith approached Canberra on Wednesday, and chief executive Simon Hawkins last night reiterated the club would be interested in speaking with him if he had permission from Parramatta to negotiate.

But coach Matthew Elliott said: "He won't be here," adding that salary cap constraints were the main reasons.

Fitzgerald said he was "not at liberty to say" how much a successful bidder for Lyon would have to pay Parramatta.

Smith said: "I don't really want to make any comment until next week. Things may be happening but I won't know until next week."
