[Pedge1971]

Can anyone not from Newcastle confirm this?

Yep. Born in Moree and have lived in Newy, Sydney, and a number of locations overseas. Now in Singapore.

Best lifestyle definitely Newy.

Thank f**k. With Slater retired and Smith unsigned I was wondering whether there were any merkins left?

Just imagine Moylan & SJ together in a big finals game.

That'll be a disappearing act that'd make David Copperfield proud.

The Chad will put his hair on the line and keep things together...

When people ask why chads premiership is better than shane perrys you can say “the hair son, the hair”

Great for Tigers and good on Brooks for committing. No doubt he could have gotten a lot more if he went to the market.

Im glad that he re-signed and I think he has done the right thing, seems a good guy with integrity, I think the fact that he waited until after 1/11/18 to re-sign is a pretty sure indication that he "went to the market" which probably makes sure that he gets paid at least what he is worth and good on him for that. He deserves that, particularly after his last re-negotiation.

He’s just about all the sharks have in attack now

 

[GongPanther]

All the young blokes, with wives under say 35 are wondering what this means

Give them the Florida hint.

Have faith in the young flannoling

Good it’s technically a 4 year deal because I can’t remember a single 5 year signing that didn’t bite the club in the ass

I can't remember a player in the NRL that improved as much in the space of twelve months as Cook did last year. He went from a bench Hooker that struggled to play a full 80 minutes to a bonafide 80 minute player and the first choice for NSW and Australia. He could always exploit a gap with his pace but he had a bit of trouble picking when to run. On top of that, he wasn't the greatest defender. In 12 months, he basically fixed all of that.

Question is, now that coaches of other teams have worked him out a bit and identify him as a threat, does his game continue to evolve? If he can add some more strings to his bow and improve his passing and game management a bit, he will be worth every penny.

Souths have a lot of money tied up in that spine now with Reynolds, Inglis and Cook. 2 of them are quite injury prone lately and 1 of them has had 1 good year of footy.
