Dennis Fitzgerald

[laurie]

Just heard Dennis Fitzgerald who said he would take any offers from outside sydney because the reason jamie lyon left was " because i want to get out of Sydney", this is why he has rejected the eagles bid.

If the raiders r serious they should get a bid in quick smart !! especially with Elliott knowing Smith so well.

Lyon is stupid - Penrith is in Sydney! (albeit a long way from the CBD).

Agreed, someone ring his manager and organise a meeting

 

[greeneyed]

I don't know why the coach wasn't on the phone to Brian Smith a lot sooner? Unless the terms of the transfer fee were so high that it was not an option? And it seems Lyon's uncle wants him to go to Penrith... so our chances may not be too good.....

 

[Brimmer]

He would be the spark we are looking for!!!! Mind you, he will have a tough time cracking 1st Grade with boogas nipping at his heels....

 

[woodgers]

I bet we don't even approach him. He hasn't even done his 10 year stint in England so why would be bother. Pity this didn't happen earlier in the year, we could have thrown Brad Drew in with the deal. They rate him in those parts.

If it wasn't so sad it would be funny....

If management are not the dumbest people in the universe, they will at least express interest.

That's a big if...

Would we hvae enough money under the cap to make a decent offer at Lyon? :?

 

[azza]

If we don't it's a bloody disgrace

 

[s y d n e y - r a i d e r]

Can we msg or call the raiders head quaters and somehow mention this to the managment?

The question is, what else can we offer him?

He's happy pulling beers atm. How much could he be on doing that? If we offered him 100-150k plus the country lifestyle of Canberra, I reckon we're in with a shot.

 

[Raider Azz]

But our backline is full! Who would we cut to make room for him :?

 

[hrundi99]

But that's the thing. I think it would take at least 250k for him to want to leave Wee Waa.

Hindy's got a property out here near Cowra somewhere I've heard.

We're only 2 hours from Canberra, so Jamie and him can come out and shoot as many defenseless animals as they want.

And if Jamie really misses pouring schooners, I'm pretty sure I can line him up a nightshift at the Lachlan Hotel.

All this AND a green jersey!
What more could he want?

Are you serious?

 

[SOULS 04]

[s y d n e y - r a i d e r]

Are you serious?

Mogg, Graham, Frawley, Smith, Robertson, Gafa, Fransicus etc. etc.

Yes. I am serious.

Don't get me wrong, Lyon is a great player and would be a good buy but I'd still rather sign someone who plays in a position we need.
