Latest news is that the sharks have offered more than the knights for bird.

So you guys will be paying a centre a million a season. I thought he wasn't worth that much????

2 wins across 30 games and they are talking about how promising the future looks.

f**k me dead and they think we are delusional.

When was their win last year...it was very early in the season, wasn't it?

They have not improved upon last year yet.

This season is heading down the same path imo....getting in winning positions & then not being able to finish it off.

If that continues, their heart will sink & they'll go back to getting flogged most weeks.

Not good for the game but they only have themselves to blame.

Yeah ok. So he will take a few hundred thousand less to stay there? Yeah nah.
That's the idea. I know it's different to the Knights way of having to pay overs.

Maybe he also wants the 'job satisfaction' of actually winning some games, which is a very good reason to stay away from Newcastle.

Yeah because the knights will never win games again. It all goes in cycles. Don't forget the sharks have been easy beats for most of their existence.

No, that's not what I said. He will take a bit less to stay, maybe up to $100k.
However you idiots are going to offer him way over what he is worth & he will go.

Not much we can do about it except say thanks for your efforts Birdy in getting us a premiership & good luck.

.

Which he will more than likely make up in Rep match payments. Plus have the added bonus of playing said Rep matches.

Cant see him making too many rep teams playing for the knights and getting violently raped every week.

Why won't he play rep footy if he plays for the knights?

Gagai plays rep footy
Woods and teddy play rep footy

No reason why bird can't.

Don't worry to much about it Hardcore, he still might sign with you guys.

It's nice to see a bit of conversation rather than cheap shots
