Cronk to leave Storm in 2018

[t-ba]

He will be a specialist coach and strategist at the Penrith Academy of Mega- Excellence.
You're all embarrassing yourselves. End thread.

It would require someone in the media to live west of the Iron Cove Bridge. Not happening.

I think people are hugely overrating her looks.
She's cute but has a f**ked up chin.

You blokes have poor taste in women. Next you'll be telling me Erin Molan is beautiful.

You've got to stop f**king with photos ol' mate, they can be deceiving . . . get outdoors and look for the real thing

She's got an alligator like jaw.

ummm....perfect?

While I'm sure looks got them together, there is a lot more to a relationship than just the body. Obviously he is quite happy to be around her all the time.

I think he will look at Fox for a deal first. Outside of the Tigers and Dogs, there really isn't many teams that can afford him or have the gap to slot him in. Parra look to be taking on Moses. Not sure why though. Hayne and Foran are both reportedly looking for a re-entry to the Sydney market as well. I can easily see Hayne ending up at the Roosters.

Get ready for backend deal Dessie II? Pick up Foran and maybe Cronk, aim to deliver a premiership and GTFO in a couple of years. Something has happened at the Dogs. Dessie didn't manage to turn that around so quick without an Ace up his sleeve. My immediate thought was Foran, but the timing was remarkable. Dogs have a pack that a player like Cronk can work with.

I have no idea what the Tigers are playing with. And I see they rejected the release too. Hardly surprising given their position on the ladder. I don't rate their big 4 much. If you had 4 'big' players in your team, you would have no drama making the finals each and every year.

There is no big 4. A big 4 performs at a high level on a consistent basis.

Cooper-uhh is a-uhh sucker-uhh for love-uhh.

Is this an indication that Cooper Cronk will be retiring after this year?


"A TV bidding war for Cooper Cronk has been averted, with Fox Sports snapping up the Melbourne Storm ace until 2019.

Cronk dropped a bombshell this week when he said he would quit Melbourne at the end of the season to be with his fiancee, Fox Sports presenter Tara Rushton.

While Cronk’s friends remain divided over whether he’ll retire, Fox were taking no chances and locked him up for a couple of years.


Nine has an ageing on-air roster and would have loved Cronk on their books. He’s articulate, good looking, and is hugely popular in Queensland and Victoria.

Cronk has already done some work with Fox.

Fox head of live sport Steve Crawley predicted a long and successful career for Cronk on the silver screen.

“He’s an absolute star in the making, and out of all the people playing the game right now, nobody will make a better transition to sports television than Cooper Cronk,’’ Crawley said.

“He’s already as good as most hosts, and as he does more, he’ll get better.’’


Rushton is also held in the highest regard at Fox and is adored by the football fraternity.

Cronk told his Storm teammates about the move just minutes before he fronted the press on Tuesday morning."

Surely there's a thread from 2008 about Cooper being open to offers that we could have brought back from the dead

I was making a legitimate point that Cronk maybe looking to retire. But it should be noted that other players including Paul Gallan, Beau Ryan, and Matty Johns have had media careers simultaneously while being professional footballers so I might be reading too much into it.

Cronk already had a deal with Fox Sports to begin with, they just extended the deal is all. Still could go either way

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Cooper will be boring the shit out of us on fox for the next 50 years on big dollars.

And as for his missus - you don't look at the mantlepiece when you're stoking the fire.

Just yanking ya chain. Carry on.

I think he's odds on to retire, he just hasn't made his mind up yet.

But why would he want to carry with a club he doesn't really care for if he's got a lucrative media career to look forward to? Especially if they have a sprog soon. There's nothing else for him to achieve.

Time to get the nose straightened and begin a new career

Dipshit I could argue you're hiding behind the dragons logo but I have enough sense to know that is a fatuous point. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone here who has an actual picture of themselves as their avatar.

Why does my opinion of her looks matter to you? Do you usually white knight?

I hope next time you display the maturity and intellect as I have.

But I doubt it since you do not have a brain!

I work to pay for your pension. Can't always be online.

You can't always be online because mummy takes away your internet privileges. Now bugger off and stop stinking up this place.
