Losing out on getting him won’t really affect you blokes in the slightest IMO.
I hope you’re right. JFH’s absence will be some pretty big shoes to fill.

I watched reserve grade last week and just shook my head.... Preston Riki is a beast. Even looks like JFH.I hope you’re right. JFH’s absence will be some pretty big shoes to fill.
I wouldn’t worry about a signing like that.As I said in the rumoured signings thread this game is absolutely comically run and the player market/salary cap is the biggest joke of them all

Roosters are still squeezing the last few dollars of cap space after moving on Craig Savatori. Can't help but admire whilst whistling loudly out front of NRL HQ.The reported $4m salary cap space would mean that Sualii, Kearney, JWH and Manu were on average $1m each.
Really?
It couldn’t be more than $2.5m surely!
Gagai turned down the Roosters to stay with the Knights in spite being offered one year less. Also, apparently Fafita had a Holbrook clause in his Titans contract, given JH is an assistant at the Roosters now might’ve had something to do with winning his signature? It’s not always Uncle Nick although mostly is because he is God. Forget what I said, it’s Nick. It’s always NickTo those posters above, I’m not worried about the name or the player; it’s more the trend.
Every major player off contract who the Roosters are interested in, they essentially acquire which is interesting considering we are supposed to have a ‘salary cap’ (evidently not being policed very well by choice or by ineptitude) It’s become a parody and it’s particularly boring. At this point (actually a long time ago) you have to argue that there has to be something in addition to a salary cap.
Even as an extreme example, even Manchester City don’t get every player they are interested in.
Add Tupou and Crichton.The reported $4m salary cap space would mean that Sualii, Kearney, JWH and Manu were on average $1m each.

Didn't Tupou sign for a pie and coke when Young came on board? Word is Crichton will be staying.Add Tupou and Crichton.
Hahaha howling at Karen RobinsonI wouldn’t worry about a signing like that.
He’s a bum who only performs when a contract is coming up. He also is not noted for his commitment in defence.
If the Roosters signed Munster that would be different. Remember two of Karen Robinson’s Premierships was with Cronk as Captain Coach. But Fifita? He’s just a lazy bum.
The problem with that figure is two foldThe reported $4m salary cap space would mean that Sualii, Kearney, JWH and Manu were on average $1m each.

Well Tupou has just re-signed... for minimum wage and stock options, no doubtThe problem with that figure is two fold
A) it includes Tupou and Crighton
B) it is completely made up by the media
I think it's reasonable to say that those 4 players would be about $2.8M
Where are you getting that from, Yob?Well Tupou has just re-signed... for minimum wage and stock options, no doubt
