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.

Is there a YouTube reel that only shows his last two seasons?

Kids buy a lot of memberships too

His highlight reel from 2006-2008?
He's done nothing for years.

Source?

Don't say Twitter or telegraph.

If you even think it, give yourself an uppercut

pretty reliable source mate, he is at the leagues club now where benji is reportedly at preparing for a press conference. He said he heard those were the figures thrown about and it is back-ended

Gee funny how twitter reporting both but not mainstream media.

Anyway, pretty much having a laugh at all this over Marshall. Will go well with their forward pack laying absolutely f**k all platform for him.

Still can believe front rowers are not the priority over there

Supporters of the team that gets him will say it's a great signing, the ones that miss out will claim they never really wanted him anyway.

The whole thing is a bit of a farce in the overall scheme of things. Me? I'm just happy we managed to get Fifita back in Sharks colours. Much more potential upside to him over Benji, who may or may not perform.

After being completely meh about the signing of this bloke, the thought that he may not be coming has sent me into panic attack mode.

We could really do with the sponsorship pull that he brings. Probably a much more valuable off field signing. I was told it was done a few weeks back, heard nothing since so heres hoping.

Third party agreements will weigh heavily in this I'd say.

Whatever happens , happens.

If we get him, great. If we don't, lets bash him in Rd 13.

Perhaps he negotiated an option before quitting RU....now he has more than 1 option.

$500k per season for us will work out to be basically player for nothing, he will bring in that i can see.

You would think he is going to be a shark the language we here is signature in 48 hours thats code for us

Ennis is the signing I am most excited about.

Fifita wrapped up, Ennis wrapped up, Benji wrapped up.

Retention in the right places done and dusted.

Just waiting on a few outside backs to return the phone call to Flan... Sharpie.

I am still backing this post to be correct.
