Benji

[Frenzy.]

Saw 100 new posts today, thought great some news, no, this shit is dragging on too long

Benji's got nothing.

 

[Card Shark]

If Benji goes to the Dragons, it will be on a fair bit more $ I'd reckon.

Better off not getting in a bidding war with him & allocate the $ in the positions we need it.

We don't even know where we play him, we don't have a definitive hole to fill with him....1 good reason to spend wisely.

He wont be goingto the Dragons. Wher the puck do they play & more importantly , pay him.
Witt & Williams half backs & the young kid they have high hopes for. Widdop at 5/8 /fullback. Dugan & the young gun understudy at fullback & both can play 5/8.
They only thing I can see them doing is clearing the decks at half back. But they still ahve to be able to pay marshall. legally.

A flight to melb takes the exact same time it would to drive from syd to Wollongong.

...and melb was too far away for him.

Gee it is turning out to be a fun season for us and a fun season of NRL for that matter.

I detect something smelly and the stink is growing.

 

[DJShaksta]

I'm over it now to be honest.
For over a week now it's been said he's a Shark, we've got him, playing against parra, etc.
If we get beaten to his sig by the goons so be it.

Did anyone see Benji's kicking game come out in Union at all?

I watched 3 games he played in, the first was a trial and he was ok, not awesome but not terrible.

The next two games he came on with only 10mins or so on the clock, played fullback and was Putrid.

He had a shocker in Union, I wouldn't go looking for a high light reel!

If Benji signs with us then cool... I hope he recaptures his best form and the team fires around him.

If he signs with the Dragons then cool... I hope they paid big money for him and he continues his rubbish form from the last few years to spend most of his time in reggies.

Simple as that for me.

At $1.5 mil for three years, the goons can have him. FMD they are stupid

 

[blacktip-reefy]

$1.5 Mil for 3 years = $1.5 mil profit.

Not sure who's more stupid they have salary cap to spend and are sitting mid table, sharkies paid big $$$ for Lewis, Graham, Carney, Fifita, Heighnington, Gordon over last three years etc and where has it got them? Bottom of the table.

 

[Luke Bowden]

$1.5 mil for a Benji is fu*king crazy.

Wobbly I am editing this post so I play nice .

Dumb f**king comment mate

 

[PHaTMaN]

Where is this 1.5 mil figure coming from?

Where is this 1.5 mil figure coming from?

My brothers sister in laws cousins wife, who got it from their housekeeper in Vietnam, how got it first hand from their uncle who owns a shop in Rockdale.

Alway spot in with info

 

[Ausguy]

Yeah wobby cos we have had all those players playing this year.... Idiot

 

[_SpEeDy_]

As a Dragons Fan, I think it is a stupid decision!

We don't need halves, we need forwards!!!!!!

 

[DJShaksta]

Look he'll be a good back up half for either Drags or Sharks.
BUT will the Benji ego want to be a backup?!?!

And if it's really a $500k a season deal at Dragons Doust/Price are nutz

 

[cheese]

You guys are off your face...

500k sounds like a barg to me. His market Value was pushing 850 only 6 months ago

Good players cost money .... Fire up youtube, lube up, & watch his highlight real. It's ridiculous.

He's only 29 - get it done. The good press is worth the money alone. Kids love the bloke.
